Product details
Overview
LM339ADRE4 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, and 1 µs propagation delay. It operates in industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and drives TTL, MOS, and CMOS loads - widely used in server PSU overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LM339ADRE4 datasheet, LM339ADRE4 pinout, LM339ADRE4 application, or LM339ADRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include input common-mode range extending to ground, ±38 V differential input capability, open-collector output compatibility, and B-version upgrade path for legacy LM339 designs requiring improved ESD (2 kV HBM) and tighter offset performance.
Technical Context
The LM339ADRE4 implements four independent voltage comparators with rail-to-rail input capability down to ground and differential input tolerance up to ±38 V. Its open-collector outputs support wired-OR logic and flexible pull-up configurations, enabling direct interface with 3.3 V or 5 V logic families without level-shifting.
Internally, it uses bipolar process technology optimized for low input bias current (3.5 nA typ), low supply current (0.8–1.2 mA total), and fast response (1 µs typ at 5 mV overdrive). The device maintains stable operation across wide supply (2–36 V) and temperature (–40°C to +85°C) ranges without external compensation.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LM339ADRE4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for LM339ADRE4 is 38 V, with recommended operating range from 2 V to 36 V. This 36 V upper limit allows direct use with 24 V industrial rails and 32 V telecom systems while maintaining 2 V margin below absolute maximum - ensuring long-term reliability under transient overvoltage conditions. LM339ADRE4 maintains full functionality across this entire range without derating.
Does LM339ADRE4 support ground-referenced input signals?
Yes, LM339ADRE4 features a common-mode input voltage range that includes ground (0 V), allowing direct connection of sensors or signal sources referenced to system ground. Its inputs tolerate voltages from V– (GND) up to VCC – 2 V, and differential inputs can swing ±38 V - making it ideal for applications like battery voltage monitoring and motor current sensing where one side of the signal is grounded.
What output configuration does LM339ADRE4 use, and how should it be interfaced?
LM339ADRE4 uses open-collector outputs requiring external pull-up resistors to define the logic HIGH level. Each output (Pins 1, 7, 13, 12) sinks current when active and floats when inactive, enabling wired-OR connections for alarm aggregation. Pull-up values are selected based on load (e.g., 4.7 kΩ for 5 V TTL, 10 kΩ for 3.3 V CMOS), and the outputs drive standard logic families without level shifters - a key feature of LM339ADRE4.
How does LM339ADRE4 compare to LM339B in terms of input offset voltage?
LM339ADRE4 has a maximum input offset voltage of ±5.5 mV over temperature (–40°C to +85°C), while LM339B improves this to ±5.5 mV max with ±0.37 mV typical. Both share the same pinout and package, but LM339B's tighter offset specification makes it preferable for precision thresholding. LM339ADRE4 remains suitable for general-purpose monitoring where ±5.5 mV accuracy meets system requirements - a verified performance point for LM339ADRE4.
Is LM339ADRE4 qualified for automotive applications?
No, LM339ADRE4 is not AEC-Q100 qualified and is rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), not automotive (–40°C to +125°C). For automotive use, TI offers LM2901B-Q1 (AEC-Q100 Grade 1) or LM2901DR - both pin-compatible alternatives with extended temperature and qualification. LM339ADRE4 is intended for industrial, computing, and telecom infrastructure applications where its specifications and long-term supply chain are validated.
