LMC6762 Dual MicroPower Rail-To-Rail Input CMOS Comparator with Push-Pull Output July 1997 LMC6762 Dual MicroPower Rail-To-Rail Input CMOS Comparator with Push-Pull Output General Description The LMC6762 is an ultra low power dual comparator with a maximum supply current of 10 µA/comparator. It is designed to operate over a wide range of supply voltages, from 2.7V to 15V. The LMC6762 has guaranteed specs at 2.7V to meet the demands of 3V digital systems. The LMC6762 has an input common-mode voltage range which exceeds both supplies. This is a significant advantage in low-voltage applications. The LMC6762 also features a push-pull output that allows direct connections to logic devices without a pull-up resistor. A quiescent power consumption of 50 µW/amplifier (@ V+ = 5V) makes the LMC6762 ideal for applications in portable phones and hand-held electronics. The ultra-low supply current is also independent of power supply voltage. Guaranteed operation at 2.7V and a rail-to-rail performance makes this device ideal for battery-powered applications. Refer to the LMC6772 datasheet for an open-drain version of this device.

As in the case of operational amplifiers, CMVR is defined by the VOS shift of the comparator over the common-mode range of the device. A CMRR (∆VOS/∆VCM) of 75 dB (typical) implies a shift of < 1 mV over the entire common-mode range of the device. The absolute maximum input voltage at V+ = 5V is 200 mV beyond either supply rail at room temperature. DS012320-6 FIGURE 2. Even at Low-Supply Voltage of 2.7V, an Input Signal which Exceeds the Supply Voltages Produces No Phase Inversion at the Output At V+ = 2.7V, propagation delays are tPLH = 4 µs and tPHL = 4 µs with overdrives of 100 mV. Please refer to the performance curves for more extensive characterization. 3.0 Shoot-Through Current The shoot-through current is defined as the current surge, above the quiescent supply current, between the positive and negative supplies of a device. The current surge occurs when the output of the device switches states. This transient switching current results in glitches in the supply voltage. Usually, glitches in the supply lines are compensated by bypass capacitors. When the switching currents are minimal, the values of the bypass capacitors can be reduced considerably. DS012320-5 FIGURE 1. An Input Signal Exceeds the LMC6762 Power Supply Voltages with No Output Phase Inversion A wide input voltage range means that the comparator can be used to sense signals close to ground and also to the power supplies. This is an extremely useful feature in power supply monitoring circuits. An input common-mode voltage range that exceeds the supplies, 20 fA input currents (typical), and a high input impedance makes the LMC6762 ideal for sensor applications. The LMC6762 can directly interface to sensors without the use of amplifiers or bias circuits. In circuits with sensors which produce outputs in the tens to hundreds of millivolts, the LMC6762 can compare the sensor signal with an appropriately small reference voltage. This reference voltage can be close to ground or the positive supply rail. 2.0 Low Voltage Operation Comparators are the common devices by which analog signals interface with digital circuits. The LMC6762 has been designed to operate at supply voltages of 2.7V without sacrificing performance to meet the demands of 3V digital systems. At supply voltages of 2.7V, the common-mode voltage range extends 200 mV (guaranteed) below the negative supply. This feature, in addition to the comparator being able to sense signals near the positive rail, is extremely useful in low voltage applications. DS012320-7 FIGURE 3. LMC6762 Circuit for Measurement of the Shoot-Through Current www.national.com 8 Application Hints (Continued) 4.0 Output Short Circuit Current The LMC6762 has short circuit protection of 40 mA. However, it is not designed to withstand continuous short circuits, transient voltage or current spikes, or shorts to any voltage beyond the supplies. A resistor is series with the output should reduce the effect of shorts. For outputs which send signals off PC boards additional protection devices, such as diodes to the supply rails, and varistors may be used. 5.0 Hysteresis If the input signal is very noisy, the comparator output might trip several times as the input signal repeatedly passes through the threshold. This problem can be addressed by making use of hysteresis as shown below. DS012320-8 FIGURE 4. Measurement of the Shoot-Through Current From Figure 3 and Figure 4 the shoot-through current for the LMC6762 can be approximated to be 0.2 mA (200 mV/1 kΩ). The duration of the transient is measured as 1 µs. The values needed for the local bypass capacitors can be calculated as follows: DS012320-10 FIGURE 5. Canceling the Effect of Input Capacitance The capacitor added across the feedback resistor increases the switching speed and provides more short term hysteresis. This can result in greater noise immunity for the circuit. 6.0 Spice Macromodel A Spice Macromodel is available for the LMC6762. The model includes a simulation of: DS012320-9 Area of ∆ = 1⁄2 (1 µs x 200 µA) = 100 pC If the local bypass capacitor has to provide this charge of 100 pC, the minimum value of the local capacitor to prevent local degradation of VCC can be calculated. Suppose that the maximum voltage droop that the system can tolerate is 100mV, ∆Q = C * (∆V) →C = (∆Q/∆V) = 100 pC/100 mV = 0.001 µF The low internal feedthrough current of the LMC6762 thus requires lower values for the local bypass capacitors. In applications where precision is not critical, this is a significant advantage, as lower values of capacitors result in savings of board space, and cost. It is worth noting here that the delta shift of the power supply voltage due to the transient currents causes a threshold shift of the comparator. This threshold shift is reduced by the high PSRR of the comparator. However, the value of the PSRR applicable in this instance is the transient PSRR and not the DC PSRR. The transient PSRR is significantly lower than the DC PSRR. Generally, it is a good goal to reduce the delta voltage on the power supply to a value equal to or less than the hysteresis of the comparator. For example, if the comparator has 50 mV of hysteresis, it would be reasonable to increase the value of the local bypass capacitor to 0.01 µF to reduce the voltage delta to 10 mV. • Input common-mode voltage range • Quiescent and dynamic supply current • Input overdrive characteristics and many more characteristics as listed on the macromodel disk.

Typical Applications One-Shot Multivibrator DS012320-14 FIGURE 6. One-Shot Multivibrator 9 www.national.com Typical Applications (Continued) Zero Crossing Detector A monostable multivibrator has one stable state in which it can remain indefinitely. It can be triggered externally to another quasi-stable state. A monostable multivibrator can thus be used to generate a pulse of desired width. The desired pulse width is set by adjusting the values of C2 and R4. The resistor divider of R1 and R2 can be used to determine the magnitude of the input trigger pulse. The LMC6762 will change state when V1 < V2. Diode D2 provides a rapid discharge path for capacitor C2 to reset at the end of the pulse. The diode also prevents the non-inverting input from being driven below ground. Bi-Stable Multivibrator DS012320-16 FIGURE 8. Zero Crossing Detector A voltage divider of R4 and R5 establishes a reference voltage V1 at the non-inverting input. By making the series resistance of R1 and R2 equal to R5, the comparator will switch when VIN = 0. Diode D1 insures that V3 never drops below −0.7V. The voltage divider of R2 and R3 then prevents V2 from going below ground. A small amount of hysteresis is setup to ensure rapid output voltage transitions. Oscillator DS012320-15 FIGURE 7. Bi-Stable Multivibrator A bi-stable multivibrator has two stable states. The reference voltage is set up by the voltage divider of R2 and R3. A pulse applied to the SET terminal will switch the output of the comparator high. The resistor divider of R1, R4, and R5 now clamps the non-inverting input to a voltage greater than the reference voltage. A pulse applied to RESET will now toggle the output low. DS012320-19 FIGURE 9. Square Wave Generator Figure 9 shows the application of the LMC6762 in a square wave generator circuit. The total hysteresis of the loop is set by R1, R2 and R3. R4 and R5 provide separate charge and discharge paths for the capacitor C. The charge path is set through R4 and D1. So, the pulse width t1 is determined by the RC time constant of R4 and C. Similarly, the discharge path for the capacitor is set by R5 and D2. Thus, the time t2 between the pulses can be changed by varying R5, and the pulse width can be altered by R4. The frequency of the output can be changed by varying both R4 and R5. www.national.com 10 Typical Applications (Continued) DS012320-18 FIGURE 10. Time Delay Generator The circuit shown above provides output signals at a prescribed time interval from a time reference and automatically resets the output when the input returns to ground. Consider the case of VIN = 0. The output of comparator 4 is also at ground. This implies that the outputs of comparators 1, 2, and 3 are also at ground. When an input signal is applied, the output of comparator 4 swings high and C charges exponentially through R. This is indicated above. The output voltages of comparators 1, 2, and 3 switch to the high state when VC1 rises above the reference voltage VA, VB and VC. A small amount of hysteresis has been provided to insure fast switching when the RC time constant is chosen to give long delay times. 11 www.national.com Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 8-Pin Small Outline Package Order Number LMC6762AIM, LMC6762BIM, LMC6762AIMX or LMC6762BIMX NS Package Number M08A 8-Pin Molded Dual-In-Line Package Order Number LMC6762AIN or LMC6762BIN NS Package Number N08E www.national.com 12 LMC6762 Dual MicroPower Rail-To-Rail Input CMOS Comparator with Push-Pull Output Notes LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL’S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
