Product details
Overview
LMV331IDCKTG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, low-voltage, open-collector comparator optimized for portable and space-constrained systems. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V, draws only 26μA typical supply current, features rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground, and delivers 150mV typical output saturation voltage - enabling direct interface with 1.8V/3.3V logic in battery-powered vacuum robots and server PSUs.
For engineers reviewing the LMV331IDCKTG4 datasheet, LMV331IDCKTG4 pinout, LMV331IDCKTG4 application, or LMV331IDCKTG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SC-70-5 package footprint, guaranteed operation down to –40°C, open-drain flexibility for level-shifting, and verified performance at both 2.7V and 5V supply rails.
Technical Context
The LMV331IDCKTG4 implements a PNP-input stage enabling input common-mode voltage range from ground to VCC–0.7V, supporting accurate sensing near 0V in single-supply systems. Its open-drain NPN output stage sinks up to 23mA (at 2.7V) and requires an external pull-up to define logic-high level - allowing interoperability across mixed-voltage domains.
It functions strictly as a voltage comparator with no internal hysteresis; design-in requires external RC filtering or feedback for noise immunity. Propagation delay is 1000ns (tPHL) at 10mV overdrive with 2.7V supply, improving to 200ns at 100mV overdrive and 5V supply - making it suitable for moderate-speed threshold detection rather than high-frequency signal conditioning.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports direct integration into 3.3V and 5V systems without regulation |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 26μA typical at 25°C - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring circuits |
| Input Offset Voltage (VIO) | 7mV typical - sets minimum detectable differential voltage without trimming |
| Common-Mode Input Range | –0.1V to VCC–0.7V - allows ground-referenced sensing and compatibility with 0V–3.3V analog signals |
| Output Saturation Voltage (VSAT) | 150mV typical at IO = 1.5mA - ensures reliable low-state logic margin when driving 1.8V CMOS inputs |
| Propagation Delay (tPHL) | 1000ns at 10mV overdrive, 2.7V - defines maximum usable edge rate for slow-varying thresholds like thermal trip points |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry |
Pinout & Package
LMV331IDCKTG4 is housed in a 5-pin SC-70 (DCK) package measuring 1.25mm × 2.00mm, optimized for ultra-compact PCB layouts in handheld tools and appliance control modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN+ | Non-inverting input - connects to reference or signal source requiring positive comparison polarity |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input - connects to monitored signal; output goes low when IN− > IN+ + VIO |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be tied directly to system power plane with low-impedance path |
| 4 | OUT | Open-drain output - requires external pull-up resistor to define logic-high voltage and sink current to ground |
| 5 | VCC+ | Positive supply - accepts 2.7V–5.5V; bypass capacitor (0.1μF) mandatory for stable operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low quiescent current | 26μA typical - reduces standby power in always-on battery sensors and IoT wake-up circuits |
| Ground-sensing input stage | Input common-mode includes 0V - enables direct monitoring of current-sense shunts or thermistor dividers referenced to ground |
| Open-collector output | Supports wired-AND logic and level translation - allows interfacing with 1.2V, 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V MCU GPIOs using appropriate pull-up |
| Wide temperature range | –40°C to +125°C operation - qualified for under-hood automotive subsystems and industrial motor drives |
| Fast response at low voltage | 350ns propagation delay at 100mV overdrive and 2.7V - enables responsive overvoltage/undervoltage detection in compact power supplies |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV331IDBVR | SOT-23-5 package (1.60mm × 2.90mm); 3000-unit tape-and-reel; identical electrical specs | Larger footprint but higher thermal mass; preferred for manual assembly or high-power dissipation scenarios | Select LMV331IDBVR when board layout allows larger pad area or when thermal derating above 85°C is required. |
| TLV331IDCKR | Lower 17μA supply current; 1.8V–5.5V supply range; same SC-70-5 package and pinout | Better suited for 1.8V logic domains and ultra-low-power wearables where every nanoamp matters | Choose TLV331IDCKR when operating below 2.7V or when extending coin-cell battery life beyond 5 years is critical. |
Compared with LMV331IDCKTG4, LMV331IDBVR offers mechanical robustness at the cost of board area, while TLV331IDCKR extends low-voltage capability and cuts supply current by 35% - making the latter optimal for next-gen energy-harvesting systems where 2.7V minimum is not guaranteed.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LMV331IDCKTG4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC) for LMV331IDCKTG4 is 5.5V. Exceeding this value risks permanent device damage per TI's Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation between 2.7V and 5.5V is fully specified across –40°C to +125°C, with 5V and 2.7V performance explicitly characterized in the datasheet's electrical tables. Always use a 0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitor between VCC and GND to maintain stability.
Does LMV331IDCKTG4 have internal hysteresis?
No, LMV331IDCKTG4 does not include internal hysteresis. It is a basic comparator with no built-in noise immunity - external positive feedback (e.g., resistor from OUT to IN+) must be added for reliable operation in noisy environments. The datasheet's Application and Implementation section provides hysteresis calculation methods and design examples. Without external hysteresis, rapid output toggling may occur near the threshold due to input noise or slow signal edges.
Can LMV331IDCKTG4 interface directly with a 1.8V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes, LMV331IDCKTG4 can interface directly with a 1.8V microcontroller GPIO when configured with a 1.8V pull-up resistor on the open-drain OUT pin. Its output sinks current to ground and presents high impedance when off, allowing the pull-up to set VOH = 1.8V. Ensure the MCU input's VIH specification is ≤1.8V and that the LMV331IDCKTG4's 150mV typical VSAT at 1.5mA load maintains sufficient noise margin below the MCU's VIL.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of LMV331IDCKTG4 at 125°C?
At +125°C, the input common-mode voltage range of LMV331IDCKTG4 is 0V to VCC–0.7V, as confirmed in Section 7.2.2.1 of the datasheet. This means for a 5V supply, inputs must stay within 0V to 4.3V; for 2.7V, within 0V to 2.0V. Operating outside this range - especially with IN+ or IN− above VCC–0.7V - causes incorrect output states. Ground-referenced signals remain fully valid across the full temperature range.
Is LMV331IDCKTG4 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, LMV331IDCKTG4 is RoHS compliant and lead-free. Per TI's Package Option Addendum, the part uses "NIPDAU" (nickel-palladium-gold) lead finish, carries "Yes" in the RoHS column, and is rated MSL Level-1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH). The SC-70 package is compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles peaking at 260°C, and TI certifies full compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and China RoHS.
