Hi,
I have a design with this comparator and I used a +5V and -5V voltages for supply the rails. I think as long as the differential maximum 16V is not violated I can used this device with negative voltage as well. Am I right?
Andras
You are correct. Split supplies are allowed. I just want to make sure that you are aware that the output of the comparator will also switch between your split supply rails of +/-5V. So output high will be +5V and output low will be -5V since the output stage is push-pull.

That's for sure Chuck, that is why I implemented a fet at its output to level shift to 0-5V the comparision.
Thanks,
Andras
