TLV9001: Is TLV9001 possible to use as a comparator?

Part Number: TLV9001
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TLV7021

Tool/software:

Dear Specialists,

My customer is looking for the comparator as low price as possible.

I think TLV9001 is possible to use as comparator the condition listed below.

I already promote TLV7021 as the lowest price comparator to the customer, they would like to know if more inexpensive op-amp can be used.

---

-Output voltage low is 0.4V or less within the operating temperature range

-Able to track oscillation frequencies from 100Hz to 1kHz

-Low power type (supply current is 100μA or less)

-If it is an open drain type, it is driven by 24V

-If it is a push-pull type, it is a rail-to-rail type and driven by 4.5V

example circuit

I appreciate your great help in advance.

Best regards,

Shinichi

  • Hello Shinichi-san,

    Yes, TLV9001 can be used as a comparator. Just note that IQ specification is for linear mode. IQ is comparator mode may be different.  

    If it is an open drain type, it is driven by 24V

    -If it is a push-pull type, it is a rail-to-rail type and driven by 4.5V

    I'm not sure what that means. What is the desired output high voltage?
