Product details
Overview
LM339ADG4 from Texas Instruments is a quad differential comparator IC designed for single-supply operation across 2 V to 36 V, featuring ±0.37 mV typical input offset voltage, 200 µA per comparator quiescent current, 1 µs propagation delay, and rail-to-rail common-mode input range down to ground-used in server PSU overvoltage detection, motor drive fault monitoring, and industrial sensor thresholding.
For engineers reviewing the LM339ADG4 datasheet, LM339ADG4 pinout, LM339ADG4 application, or LM339ADG4 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-14 package details, real-world use cases, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and thermal differences.
Technical Context
The LM339ADG4 implements four independent open-collector comparators with ESD-hardened inputs (2 kV HBM), enabling robust operation in noisy industrial environments. Its input stage supports common-mode voltages from ground to VCC – 2 V, and differential input range up to ±38 V, allowing direct sensing of high-side signals without level-shifting.
Each comparator delivers TTL-/CMOS-/MOS-compatible output sinking up to 21 mA, with low saturation voltage (≤400 mV at 4 mA) and supply-current independence from VCC. The device operates across –40°C to +85°C, matching the LM339B grade's extended temperature performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LM339ADG4?
The LM339ADG4 has an absolute maximum supply voltage of 36 V, with recommended operating range from 2 V to 36 V. This allows direct integration into 24 V industrial systems and 36 V battery-powered equipment without external regulators, provided input common-mode and differential voltage limits (±38 V) are respected.
Does LM339ADG4 support rail-to-rail input operation?
Yes, LM339ADG4 supports a common-mode input voltage range from ground (V–) to VCC – 2 V, enabling true rail-to-rail sensing in single-supply configurations. Either input may exceed VCC up to the ±38 V differential limit without damage, making it suitable for high-side current sensing and battery monitoring.
What is the output configuration of LM339ADG4 and how should it be interfaced?
LM339ADG4 features four open-collector outputs requiring external pull-up resistors. Each output sinks up to 21 mA and interfaces directly with TTL, CMOS, or MOS logic families. Pull-up voltage can differ from VCC (e.g., 3.3 V MCU I/O), enabling level translation without additional components.
How does LM339ADG4 compare to LM339B in terms of key performance metrics?
LM339ADG4 is the legacy A-grade version with ±5.5 mV max input offset and 1.3 µs typical response time. LM339B improves offset to ±0.37 mV typ and response to 1 µs, adds 2 kV HBM ESD, and extends absolute max supply to 38 V - all in the same SOIC-14 package, making LM339B a drop-in upgrade where tighter tolerances are needed.
Is LM339ADG4 suitable for automotive applications?
No, LM339ADG4 is not qualified for automotive use. It operates from –40°C to +85°C, but lacks AEC-Q100 qualification, extended temperature validation, or automotive-specific reliability testing. For automotive designs, TI recommends LM2901B-Q1 or LM339B-Q1, which are explicitly qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1.
