Product details
Overview
LM2903QPWRG4Q1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified dual open-drain comparator for automotive systems, operating from 2 V to 36 V supply, with ±0.37 mV typical input offset voltage, 3.5 nA typical input bias current, and 1 µs typical propagation delay. It enables precise voltage monitoring in HEV/EV powertrain control and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 datasheet, LM2903QPWRG4Q1 pinout, LM2903QPWRG4Q1 application, or LM2903QPWRG4Q1 equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive-grade temperature range (–40°C to +125°C), open-drain output compatibility with TTL/MOS/CMOS, low quiescent current (600 µA max), and robust ESD rating (2 kV HBM).
Technical Context
The LM2903QPWRG4Q1 implements a PNP Darlington-pair input stage enabling high gain, fast response, and operation down to ground common-mode voltage while maintaining VCM up to VCC – 2 V over temperature. Its open-drain NPN output stage supports wired-AND logic and flexible pull-up configuration across multiple voltage domains.
It operates on single or split supplies (VS = V+ – V–) within 2 V to 36 V, with differential input voltage tolerance of ±38 V and input pins rated to –0.3 V to 38 V - enabling direct interface with high-side sensing and battery-monitoring circuits without external protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 36 V - supports wide automotive battery transients and 12 V/24 V/48 V system rails without regulation. |
| Input Offset Voltage (typ) | ±0.37 mV - enables accurate threshold detection in precision window comparators and battery cell monitoring. |
| Input Bias Current (typ) | 3.5 nA - minimizes error in high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., thermistors, potentiometers). |
| Propagation Delay (typ) | 1 µs at 5 V supply - suitable for real-time fault detection in motor control and DC-DC converter feedback loops. |
| Quiescent Current (max) | 800 µA at 36 V and –40°C to +125°C - ensures low-power operation in always-on vehicle modules. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | 2 kV - exceeds AEC-Q100 Class H1C requirement, reducing field failure risk in assembly and service environments. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Ground to VCC – 2 V - allows direct sensing of signals referenced to chassis ground in automotive subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-8 package (3.00 mm × 4.40 mm), surface-mount, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, with exposed thermal pad connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OUT | Comparator 1 output | Open-drain NPN - requires external pull-up; enables level-shifting and wired-AND logic with other comparators or MCUs. |
| 1IN− | Comparator 1 inverting input | Differential sensing node - accepts voltages from –0.3 V to 38 V; compatible with high-side current-sense amplifiers. |
| 1IN+ | Comparator 1 non-inverting input | Reference or signal input - supports rail-to-rail common-mode range including ground, critical for battery voltage monitoring. |
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for inputs, outputs, and thermal pad - must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| VCC | Positive supply | Single-supply input (2–36 V) - powers both comparators and internal bias circuitry; tolerant of load-dump transients. |
| 2OUT | Comparator 2 output | Independent open-drain output - allows dual-threshold detection (e.g., overvoltage + undervoltage) with shared pull-up. |
| 2IN− | Comparator 2 inverting input | Second differential input - enables independent comparison of two separate analog signals (e.g., temperature vs. threshold). |
| 2IN+ | Comparator 2 non-inverting input | Second reference input - supports dual-channel monitoring without external multiplexing or additional ICs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual open-drain comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2903QDRQ1 | SOIC-8 package (4.90 mm × 3.91 mm); identical electrical specs but higher RθJA (154°C/W vs. 182.9°C/W for TSSOP) | Better suited for prototyping and manual soldering; less space-efficient for high-density PCBs | Select when board layout allows larger footprint and thermal management uses heatsinking or airflow. |
| TLV1702QDRQ1 | Rail-to-rail input, 36 V supply, but lower offset (±0.8 mV typ), higher IQ (1.2 mA), and no AEC-Q100 Grade 0/1 certification | Not qualified for powertrain use; limited to infotainment or comfort systems where extended temp range not required | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-safety-critical applications where rail-to-rail input is mandatory. |
Compared with LM2903QDRQ1 and TLV1702QDRQ1, the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 delivers optimal balance of AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance, ultra-low input bias current, and compact TSSOP-8 packaging - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, thermally demanding automotive control modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage supported by the LM2903QPWRG4Q1?
The LM2903QPWRG4Q1 supports a maximum supply voltage of 36 V, verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings in the official TI datasheet SLCS141M. This rating applies across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and enables direct interface with 24 V and 48 V automotive systems without external regulation.
Does the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 have rail-to-rail input capability?
No, the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range extends from ground to VCC – 2 V at temperature extremes, as specified in Section 2.5 of the LM2903-Q1 datasheet. The non-inverting input can exceed VCC, but the inverting input is limited to VCC – 2 V maximum.
Is the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 pin-compatible with standard LM2903 variants?
Yes, the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 shares identical pinout and functionality with other LM2903-Q1 family members in TSSOP-8 packaging, including LM2903QTPWRQ1 and LM2903BQPWRQ1. All maintain the same 1OUT, 1IN−, 1IN+, GND, VCC, 2OUT, 2IN−, 2IN+ assignment per Figure 1-1 in the datasheet.
What is the typical input offset voltage of the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 at 25°C?
The LM2903QPWRG4Q1 has a typical input offset voltage of ±0.37 mV at 25°C and VS = 5 V to 36 V, as documented in Section 2.9 Electrical Characteristics of the LM2903B-Q1 datasheet. This value is confirmed for the DGK and PW package variants, which include LM2903QPWRG4Q1.
Can the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 drive a 10 kΩ pull-up resistor to 5 V?
Yes, the LM2903QPWRG4Q1 can reliably sink current through a 10 kΩ pull-up to 5 V. With IOL ≥ 6 mA minimum and VOL ≤ 400 mV at 4 mA sink (Section 2.9), the output voltage remains well below TTL and CMOS logic-low thresholds under this load condition.
