Product details
Overview
5962-9688201QCA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade quadruple low-voltage differential comparator using LinCMOS™ technology, designed for single-supply operation from 2 V to 8 V. It delivers 240 µA typical supply current at 3 V, features 10¹² Ω typical input impedance, 5 mV max input offset voltage at 25°C, and open-drain N-channel outputs requiring external pull-up. It serves in precision threshold detection within radiation-tolerant avionics power sequencing and missile guidance sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-9688201QCA datasheet, 5962-9688201QCA pinout, 5962-9688201QCA application, or 5962-9688201QCA equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, military temperature range (–55°C to 125°C) performance data, CDIP-14 package details, and direct alternatives for high-reliability analog signal conditioning designs.
Technical Context
The 5962-9688201QCA implements four independent comparators with rail-to-rail common-mode input range including ground, enabling direct interfacing with low-voltage sensors and reference sources. Its LinCMOS™ process ensures ultra-low input bias current (5 pA typ) and high input impedance, critical for high-impedance source coupling without loading error.
Each comparator features an open-drain N-channel output stage compatible with TTL, MOS, and CMOS logic families when used with external pull-up resistors. The device supports wired-AND configurations and includes built-in ESD protection rated at 1000 V (HBM), meeting MIL-PRF-38535 requirements for Class B screening.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quadruple low-voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2354MJB | Same die, identical electrical specs, but packaged in ceramic DIP (J) with different marking (5962-9688201QCA vs. TLV2354MJB); same MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in legacy documentation and procurement systems where part number format differs. | Select TLV2354MJB only if sourcing from distributors listing that specific orderable ID; electrically and mechanically identical to 5962-9688201QCA. |
| LM339AMW/883 | Quad comparator with higher supply current (500 µA typ), wider offset (7 mV max), and no LinCMOS™ input - 20 nA input bias vs. 5 pA. | Suitable for less sensitive applications where input impedance >10⁹ Ω suffices; lacks rail-to-rail input capability below 1.5 V. | Choose LM339AMW/883 only when existing designs use it and cost or availability favors reuse; not recommended for new designs requiring ultra-low bias current. |
Compared with TLV2354MJB, 5962-9688201QCA offers identical performance and qualification but distinct DoD-assigned nomenclature; compared with LM339AMW/883, it delivers 4,000× lower input bias current and 2× tighter offset, enabling precision sensing in high-impedance, low-power military systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 5962-9688201QCA?
The 5962-9688201QCA is fully characterized and qualified for operation from –55°C to 125°C, meeting MIL-PRF-38535 Class B screening requirements. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including input offset voltage, supply current, and propagation delay, making it suitable for extreme-environment applications such as jet engine-mounted electronics and space launch vehicle telemetry systems.
Does the 5962-9688201QCA require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
Yes, the 5962-9688201QCA features N-channel open-drain outputs on all four channels, meaning each output must be connected to an external pull-up resistor to establish a defined high logic level. Typical values range from 2.2 kΩ to 10 kΩ depending on rise time and load requirements; absence of pull-ups results in undefined or floating output states.
Is the 5962-9688201QCA pin-compatible with commercial-grade TLV2354 variants?
No - while the 5962-9688201QCA shares identical pinout and electrical functionality with TLV2354I and TLV2354M in CDIP-14 packages, it is not pin-compatible with SOIC (D), TSSOP (PW), or CFP (W) variants due to differing package footprints and lead configurations. Only CDIP-14 versions maintain mechanical and electrical interchangeability.
What is the input offset voltage specification for the 5962-9688201QCA at full temperature range?
The 5962-9688201QCA has a maximum input offset voltage of 10 mV across its full operating range of –55°C to 125°C, as specified for the TLV2354M grade. At 25°C, the limit is tighter: 5 mV max. This parameter is verified per MIL-PRF-38535 test methods and applies uniformly to all four comparator channels.
Can the 5962-9688201QCA interface directly with CMOS logic without level-shifting?
Yes - the 5962-9688201QCA outputs are compatible with TTL, MOS, and CMOS logic families when used with appropriate external pull-up resistors. With a 3 V or 5 V supply and standard CMOS input thresholds (e.g., 70% VDD), the open-drain configuration ensures valid high/low logic levels without additional translation circuitry.
