Product details
Overview
LMC6772AIMX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a dual micropower rail-to-rail input CMOS comparator with open-drain outputs, designed for ultra-low-power sensing and threshold detection in battery-operated systems. It delivers 10 μA max supply current per channel, operates from 2.7 V to 15 V, supports rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage range (exceeding both rails), and achieves 420 ns propagation delay at 5 V with 100 mV overdrive - enabling precise, low-energy voltage monitoring in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LMC6772AIMX/NOPB datasheet, LMC6772AIMX/NOPB pinout, LMC6772AIMX/NOPB application, or LMC6772AIMX/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its guaranteed operation down to 2.7 V, open-drain output flexibility for wired-OR logic and level-shifting, −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with legacy PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LMC6772AIMX/NOPB integrates two independent high-impedance comparators with rail-to-rail input stages capable of accepting signals beyond V− and V+, enabling direct interface with sensors and reference sources near supply rails. Its CMOS input stage draws only 0.02 pA typical input bias current and maintains 75 dB common-mode rejection across 2.7–15 V supplies.
Each comparator features an open-drain NMOS output stage rated for 40 mA short-circuit protection and compatible with pull-up voltages up to 15 V - decoupling output logic levels from the device's own supply. Propagation delay remains stable across temperature (−40°C to +85°C) and supply voltage, with tPLH = 420 ns (typ.) at 5 V/100 mV overdrive.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual micropower comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMC6762AIMX/NOPB | Push-pull output (vs. open-drain); otherwise identical specs (10 μA, rail-to-rail input, 2.7–15 V). | Eliminates need for external pull-up but cannot be wired-OR'd or level-shifted beyond V+. | Select when driving CMOS loads directly and no multi-output logic combining is required. |
| TLV3702IDR | Lower supply current (1.8 μA/ch), wider temp range (−40°C to +125°C), but narrower supply (2.7–16 V) and no guaranteed rail-to-rail input beyond rails. | Better for ultra-long-life applications (e.g., 10-year utility meters); less suitable for ground-referenced sensor inputs requiring true rail exceedance. | Select when lowest possible power dominates and input common-mode margin beyond rails is not required. |
Compared with LMC6772AIMX/NOPB, LMC6762AIMX/NOPB trades output flexibility for simplified drive, while TLV3702IDR prioritizes sub-2 μA power at the expense of guaranteed rail-exceeding input range - making LMC6772AIMX/NOPB optimal for battery-powered systems needing both ultra-low power and robust single-supply sensor interfacing.

The absolute maximum supply voltage (V+ − V−) for LMC6772AIMX/NOPB is 16 V, with recommended continuous operation up to 15 V. Exceeding 16 V risks permanent damage. The device is fully specified from 2.7 V to 15 V, ensuring reliable performance across battery chemistries including alkaline, Li-ion, and NiMH.
Does LMC6772AIMX/NOPB support true rail-to-rail input operation?
Yes - LMC6772AIMX/NOPB guarantees input common-mode voltage range exceeding both supply rails: down to V− − 0.2 V and up to V+ + 0.3 V at 25°C (ensured over full temperature range). This enables direct connection of ground-referenced sensors or signals near V+ without external bias networks.
Can LMC6772AIMX/NOPB outputs drive a 12 V load?
Yes - the open-drain NMOS outputs of LMC6772AIMX/NOPB can be pulled up to any voltage ≤15 V, independent of the device's own supply. When V+ = 3.3 V, OUT A or OUT B can still switch a 12 V relay driver or LED string using an external 12 V pull-up resistor.
What is the input offset voltage specification for LMC6772AIMX/NOPB?
LMC6772AIMX/NOPB (AI grade) has a maximum input offset voltage of 5 mV at 25°C, with typical value of 3 mV. This specification is ensured across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and supply voltages (2.7–15 V), supporting accurate threshold detection in precision monitoring circuits.
Is LMC6772AIMX/NOPB pin-compatible with other comparators in the LMC67xx family?
LMC6772AIMX/NOPB shares the same SOIC-8 pinout with LMC6762AIMX/NOPB (push-pull version) and LMC6772BIMX/NOPB (higher offset, same package), enabling drop-in replacement where output topology or offset tolerance permits. Pin functions are identical; only output stage and AC specs differ.
