Product details
Overview
LMH7220MG/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-speed comparator with LVDS differential output, operating from 2.7V to 12V supply, delivering 2.9 ns propagation delay, 0.6 ns rise/fall times, and 325 mV differential swing into 100Ω - used in fast line receivers and oscilloscope triggering circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LMH7220MG/NOPB datasheet, LMH7220MG/NOPB pinout, LMH7220MG/NOPB application, or LMH7220MG/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include LVDS output compliance, sub-3 ns propagation delay across 2.7–12V supply range, −40°C to +125°C operation, 6-pin SOT package footprint, and ground-sensing input capability extending 200 mV below GND.
Technical Context
The LMH7220MG/NOPB implements a current-mode LVDS output stage with internal 1.2 V common-mode reference and dual 3.25 mA current sources, enabling standardized 325 mV differential swing across 100 Ω termination. Its input stage supports rail-to-rail common-mode range down to −0.2 V (with 2.7 V supply) and features ESD-protected bipolar input transistors with 1.5 kΩ series resistors.
Propagation delay dispersion remains ≤0.86 ns over 20–100 mV overdrive, and Q-to-Q skew is ≤0.09 ns at 100 mV overdrive, ensuring precise timing alignment in high-speed acquisition systems. The device maintains toggle rates up to 940 Mb/s at 5 V and exhibits RMS random jitter of 4.44 ps at 70 MHz center frequency.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH7322MR/NOPB | Dual-channel, 2.2 ns propagation delay, same 6-pin SOT package but higher supply current (10.5 mA) | Better suited for multi-threshold or channel-matched timing; not pin-compatible due to different pin assignment | Select when dual independent comparators with tighter skew (<50 ps) are required; requires PCB redesign |
| ADCMP572BCPZ-R2 | 3.3 V only, 1.5 ns propagation delay, CML output (not LVDS), 16-pin LFCSP package | Higher speed but incompatible interface and package; requires external termination and level translation | Choose for ultra-low-latency (<1.6 ns) applications where LVDS output is not mandatory and board space allows larger package |
Compared with LMH7220MG/NOPB, LMH7322MR/NOPB offers dual channels and faster response but demands layout changes, while ADCMP572BCPZ-R2 delivers lower latency at the cost of supply inflexibility and non-LVDS signaling - making LMH7220MG/NOPB optimal for single-channel, wide-supply, standards-compliant LVDS interfacing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for LMH7220MG/NOPB?
The LMH7220MG/NOPB supports an absolute maximum supply voltage of 13.5 V, with recommended operating range from 2.7 V to 12 V. At 12 V, propagation delay improves to 2.7 ns (typical), and supply current increases to 10.0 mA - all specifications remain valid across this full range per the official TI datasheet SNOSAL3E.
Does LMH7220MG/NOPB require external termination resistors for LVDS output?
Yes, LMH7220MG/NOPB requires a 100 Ω differential termination resistor placed across OUT Q and OUT Q pins to achieve the specified 325 mV LVDS output swing. The device drives this load with matched 3.25 mA current sources; omitting the resistor results in undefined output voltage levels and violates ANSI/TIA/EIA-644 compliance.
Can LMH7220MG/NOPB sense signals referenced to ground with a single 3.3 V supply?
Yes, LMH7220MG/NOPB supports input common-mode voltages as low as −0.2 V relative to GND when supplied from 2.7 V - fully covering ground-referenced signals. With a 3.3 V supply, its input range extends from −0.2 V to 1.3 V, enabling direct connection to 0 V–3.3 V signal sources without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical LVDS common-mode voltage of LMH7220MG/NOPB outputs?
The LMH7220MG/NOPB maintains a typical output common-mode voltage of 1.2 V, independent of supply voltage, achieved via an internal CM feedback loop. This value is stable across temperature (±15 mV from −40°C to +125°C) and ensures interoperability with standard LVDS receivers expecting 1.2 V ±100 mV common-mode levels.
Is LMH7220MG/NOPB pin-compatible with other TI comparators in SOT-23 packages?
No, LMH7220MG/NOPB uses a unique 6-pin SOT-23 (DBV) pinout optimized for LVDS signaling: pins 1/3 are inputs, pin 2 is GND, pin 4 is VCC, and pins 5/6 are complementary LVDS outputs. It is not pin-compatible with generic comparators like TLV3501 or LMV7219, which assign different functions to the same physical pins.
