Product details
Overview
LM119W/883 from Texas Instruments is a radiation-hardened, high-speed dual comparator in a 10-pin CFP (NAD) package, operating from ±15V or single 5V supplies, with 80 ns typical response time, 10.5 kV/V gain, and input offset voltage ≤±3.8 mV. It drives TTL/DTL/RTL loads up to 25 mA and supports isolated inputs/outputs for ground-referenced systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM119W/883 datasheet, LM119W/883 pinout, LM119W/883 application, or LM119W/883 equivalent, this page delivers verified military-grade comparator specifications, radiation tolerance data (100 krad(Si), ELDRS-free), thermal derating guidance, and precise pin-function mapping for space, avionics, and nuclear instrumentation designs.
Technical Context
The LM119W/883 implements two independent open-collector comparators with uncommitted outputs, enabling wired-OR logic and direct lamp/relay drive. Its input stage features low bias current (≤0.95 µA) and wide common-mode range (±12 V at ±15 V supply), supporting operation across full rail-to-rail input swings.
It uses bipolar transistor architecture with high slew rate and fast propagation delay-optimized for precision timing, window detection, and overvoltage monitoring in harsh environments where radiation-induced parametric shift must remain within ±0.4 mV post-100 krad(Si) exposure.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
LM119W/883 is housed in a hermetically sealed 10-pin Ceramic Flatpack (CFP, package code NAD), with leads arranged in two parallel rows. The case is electrically connected to Pin 5 (V−).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN− 1 | Inverting input of Comparator 1 - referenced against IN+1 to determine output state; accepts −12 V to +12 V common-mode range. |
| 2 | IN+ 1 | Non-inverting input of Comparator 1 - used for threshold setting in level-detection applications. |
| 3 | GND 1 | Ground reference for Comparator 1 - isolated from system ground per MIL-STD-883 requirement for noise immunity. |
| 4 | OUTPUT 1 | Open-collector output of Comparator 1 - requires external pull-up; sinks up to 25 mA for direct TTL/relay interface. |
| 5 | V− | Negative supply terminal - also serves as case connection; must be tied to system ground or negative rail per layout guidelines. |
| 6 | N/C | No internal connection - left unconnected; no routing or grounding required. |
| 7 | N/C | No internal connection - left unconnected; no routing or grounding required. |
| 8 | IN+ 2 | Non-inverting input of Comparator 2 - independently configurable for dual-threshold or differential sensing. |
| 9 | IN− 2 | Inverting input of Comparator 2 - supports independent signal comparison without crosstalk. |
| 10 | OUTPUT 2 | Open-collector output of Comparator 2 - electrically isolated from OUTPUT 1; enables independent load control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Two independent comparators | Enables simultaneous monitoring of separate analog signals (e.g., upper/lower thresholds in window detectors) without shared bias or loading effects. |
| Operates from single 5V supply | Eliminates need for dual-rail power in digital-centric systems such as FPGA I/O monitoring or microcontroller-based sensor interfaces. |
| High common-mode slew rate | Maintains valid comparison during fast-rising common-mode transients (e.g., EMI bursts), critical in motor-drive feedback loops. |
| Inputs and outputs isolated from system ground | Permits floating sensor measurements and galvanic separation between analog front-end and digital back-end in safety-critical systems. |
| Minimum fan-out of 2 each side | Drives multiple downstream logic gates or optocouplers without buffering, reducing component count in radiation-tolerant PCB layouts. |
Applications
| Relay Driver | Window Detector |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compares sensor readings against redundant reference voltages; outputs feed FPGA-based health monitor logic. Use Value: −55°C to +125°C operation meets DO-160E environmental requirements; CFP package withstands mechanical shock and thermal cycling. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM119H/883 | TO-100 metal-can package (10-pin), same electrical specs but different thermal resistance (θJA = 162°C/W still air) and mechanical form factor. | Suitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy board reuse where CFP footprint unavailable; less suitable for high-density surface-mount assemblies. | Select when mechanical mounting constraints require metal-can shielding or existing TO-100 socket compatibility. |
| LM119J/883 | 14-pin CDIP package with identical comparator core but added GND 2, V+, and N/C pins; higher pin count increases PCB area and routing complexity. | Used in legacy military systems with fixed CDIP footprints; lacks the compactness and hermetic reliability of CFP for new space-qualified designs. | Select only for backward compatibility with CDIP-based boards; not recommended for new radiation-tolerant designs due to larger size and lower thermal performance. |
Compared with LM119H/883 and LM119J/883, the LM119W/883 offers optimal balance of radiation hardness, thermal efficiency (θJA = 93.98°C/W), and surface-mount compatibility in a compact CFP package-making it the preferred choice for new high-reliability avionics and space electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LM119W/883?
The LM119W/883 has an absolute maximum total supply voltage of 36 V, with individual limits of ±15 V on V+ and V− terminals. Operation beyond ±15 V risks permanent damage; for single-supply use, apply +5 V to V+ and ground to V−, ensuring input voltages stay within 1.0 V to 3.0 V range relative to ground.
Does LM119W/883 support single-supply operation with TTL-compatible outputs?
Yes, LM119W/883 operates from a single +5 V supply and provides TTL-compatible outputs via its open-collector configuration. When used with a 5 V pull-up resistor, OUTPUT 1 or OUTPUT 2 sinks up to 25 mA, producing a valid low-level signal (<0.4 V) that meets standard TTL input thresholds.
How does the radiation qualification of LM119W/883 differ between high-dose-rate and ELDRS-free variants?
The LM119W/883 is qualified to both 100 krad(Si) high-dose-rate and ELDRS-free standards per MIL-STD-883 Method 1019. Post-irradiation testing confirms input offset voltage remains within ±4.0 mV and bias current ≤1.0 µA, with no enhanced low-dose-rate sensitivity-ensuring predictable behavior in both prompt and accumulated space radiation environments.
Can LM119W/883 inputs be driven beyond the supply rails?
No-LM119W/883 input voltage must remain within ±5 V differential and within the common-mode range: ±12 V for ±15 V supplies, or 1.0 V to 3.0 V for +5 V single supply. Exceeding these limits risks latch-up or parametric degradation, especially under radiation exposure.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of LM119W/883 in still air, and how does it affect power dissipation?
The LM119W/883 in CFP (NAD) package has θJA = 93.98°C/W in still air. At ambient temperature of 125°C and maximum junction temperature of 150°C, allowable power dissipation is limited to (150 − 125)/93.98 ≈ 0.266 W-well below its 500 mW absolute maximum, confirming safe operation under worst-case conditions.
