LT1011/LT1011A Voltage Comparator FeaTuresDescripTion n Pin Compatible with LM111 Series Devices The LT®1011 is a general purpose comparator with sig- n Guaranteed Max 0.5mV Input Offset Voltage nificantly better input characteristics than the LM111. n Guaranteed Max 25nA Input Bias Current Although pin compatible with the LM111, it offers four n Guaranteed Max 3nA Input Offset Current times lower bias current, six times lower offset voltage n Guaranteed Max 250ns Response Time and five times higher voltage gain. Offset voltage drift, n Guaranteed Min 200,000 Voltage Gain a previously unspecified parameter, is guaranteed at n 50mA Output Current Source or Sink 15µV/°C. Additionally, the supply current is lower by n ±30V Differential Input Voltage a factor of two with no loss in speed. The LT1011 is n Fully Specified for Single 5V Operation several times faster than the LM111 when subjected to n Available in 8-Lead PDIP and SO Packages large overdrive conditions. It is also fully specified for DC parameters and response time when operating on a single 5V supply. The LT1011 retains all the versatile features of applicaTions the LM111, including single 3V to ±18V supply operation, n SAR A/D Converters and a floating transistor output with 50mA source/sink n Voltage-to-Frequency Converters capability. It can drive loads referenced to ground, nega- n Precision RC Oscillator tive supply or positive supply, and is specified up to 50V n Peak Detector between V– and the collector output. A differential input n Motor Speed Control voltage up to the full supply voltage is allowed, even with n Pulse Generator ±18V supplies, enabling the inputs to be clamped to the n Relay/Lamp Driver supplies with simple diode clamps.
