Product details
Overview
LM111WRLQMLV from Texas Instruments is a radiation-hardened voltage comparator designed for space and high-reliability military systems. It delivers 200 nA max input current, ±30 V differential input range, and 50 mA output sink capability across −55°C to +125°C. Its strobe function, offset null capability, and compatibility with TTL/DTL/RTL loads enable precise threshold detection in satellite power sequencing and avionics sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LM111WRLQMLV datasheet, LM111WRLQMLV pinout, LM111WRLQMLV application, or LM111WRLQMLV equivalent, this page provides verified radiation performance data (50 krad(Si) high-dose-rate and 100 krad(Si) ELDRS-free), absolute maximum ratings, thermal resistance values per package variant, and confirmed pin assignments for TO-99, CDIP, CLGA, and LCCC configurations.
Technical Context
The LM111WRLQMLV implements an open-collector NPN output stage with independent strobe control on Pin 6, enabling synchronized comparison gating in multi-channel monitoring systems. Its input stage uses matched transistor pairs to achieve ≤±3.0 mV input offset voltage and ≤±20 nA input offset current over full temperature range.
It supports dual-supply operation from ±5 V to ±15 V or single 5 V supply, with rail-to-rail input common-mode range up to ±30 V relative to supplies. Output can drive grounded, positive-supply-referenced, or negative-supply-referenced loads - critical for isolated bus monitoring in radiation environments.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual comparators (using two LM111WRLQMLV units) supervise high-side and low-side thresholds with independent strobe control. Use Value: Radiation-hardened design ensures no parametric shift after 100 krad(Si) exposure - critical for mission-critical bus integrity. |
| Avionics Sensor Threshold Detector | Radiation Test Bench Reference Comparator |
Use Scenario: Converting thermocouple or RTD outputs into digital alerts for cockpit warning systems in high-G military aircraft. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compares conditioned sensor voltage against precision reference; offset nulling compensates for cold-junction errors. Use Value: 100 nA input bias avoids loading high-impedance sensor bridges - maintains measurement accuracy without active buffering. | Use Scenario: Serving as golden reference in radiation test chambers to validate functional integrity of DUTs under controlled gamma irradiation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides known-stable comparison baseline before/after irradiation; delta-VIO ≤±0.5 mV confirms no radiation-induced degradation. Use Value: Post-irradiation delta parameters (e.g., ΔVIO = ±0.5 mV) are measured and guaranteed - enabling traceable calibration in qualification labs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM111QMLV | Same die, identical radiation specs (50 krad/100 krad), but offered in different screening flow per SMD 5962-8687701 vs. QMLV spec | No functional difference; differs only in test documentation format and lot traceability depth | Select LM111WRLQMLV when full QML Class V conformance with Group B subgroup 5 testing is contractually required |
| LM111H | Commercial-grade version; no radiation assurance, −55°C to +125°C temp range retained, but no ELDRS-free validation | Not suitable for space or nuclear environments; limited to ground-based industrial systems with benign radiation profiles | Choose LM111H only for cost-sensitive terrestrial prototypes where radiation testing is deferred or waived |
Compared with LM111QMLV, LM111WRLQMLV provides identical electrical and radiation performance but with enhanced lot-level traceability and extended burn-in per QMLV requirements; LM111H lacks all radiation guarantees and cannot substitute in flight hardware without requalification.

FAQ
What radiation hardness levels are guaranteed for LM111WRLQMLV?
LM111WRLQMLV is guaranteed to 50 krad(Si) high-dose-rate and 100 krad(Si) low-dose-rate (ELDRS-free), tested per MIL-STD-883 Method 1019 Condition A. Delta-VIO remains ≤±0.5 mV post-irradiation, and no parametric shifts exceed specification limits at end-of-life dose.
Does LM111WRLQMLV support single-supply operation?
Yes, LM111WRLQMLV operates from a single 5 V supply as specified in the datasheet. Its input common-mode range extends to within 1.5 V of the negative rail, and the open-collector output interfaces directly with 5 V logic families when pulled up to 5 V.
How is the strobe function implemented on LM111WRLQMLV?
The strobe function is accessed via Pin 6 (Balance/Strobe). When pulled low, it disables the output stage, placing the collector in high-impedance state. This allows synchronous sampling across multiple LM111WRLQMLV units sharing a common strobe line in time-critical monitoring systems.
Which packages are available for LM111WRLQMLV and what are their thermal resistances?
LM111WRLQMLV is offered in 8-pin TO-99 (θJA = 162°C/W still air), 8-pin CDIP (θJA = 134°C/W), 10-pin CLGA (θJA = 231°C/W), and 20-pin LCCC (θJA = 90°C/W). All values are measured at 0.5 W dissipation per MIL-STD-883 Method 1012.
Can LM111WRLQMLV drive a relay directly?
Yes, LM111WRLQMLV can directly drive relays requiring ≤50 mA coil current and ≤50 V coil voltage. Its open-collector output sinks 50 mA at 1.5 V saturation voltage when loaded, eliminating need for external driver transistors in most space-qualified relay interface designs.
