Product details
Overview
LMV393QDRG4Q1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 qualified dual low-voltage comparator designed for automotive sensor signal conditioning and power management monitoring. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, draws 100 μA typical supply current per comparator, features rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground, and delivers 200 mV typical output saturation voltage at 1 mA sink load - enabling direct interfacing with microcontrollers in 3.3-V and 5-V systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMV393QDRG4Q1 datasheet, LMV393QDRG4Q1 pinout, LMV393QDRG4Q1 application, or LMV393QDRG4Q1 equivalent, this device is selected for cost-sensitive, low-power automotive subsystems requiring open-collector outputs, wide temperature operation (–40°C to +125°C), and compatibility with legacy LM393-based designs while reducing supply current by >50%.
Technical Context
The LMV393QDRG4Q1 implements two independent voltage comparators with open-collector NPN output stages, supporting wired-OR logic and level translation across different supply domains. Its input stage uses a PNP differential pair, enabling input voltages down to ground without phase reversal - critical for battery monitoring and zero-crossing detection.
Each comparator exhibits 7 mV typical input offset voltage at 25°C, 5 μV/°C average drift over –40°C to +125°C, and propagation delays as low as 200 ns (tPHL) at 5 V with 100 mV overdrive into a 5.1-kΩ load - making it suitable for fast-response threshold detection in motor control feedback and safety interlock circuits.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Battery Voltage Monitor | Motor Stall Detection |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Monitoring 12-V lead-acid battery voltage across cold-cranking, run, and sleep states in automotive body control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual comparator compares battery voltage against upper (14.2 V) and lower (11.8 V) thresholds to trigger charge control and low-voltage warning flags. Use Value: Rail-to-rail inputs accept direct battery sensing; 100 μA supply current avoids loading weak batteries during sleep mode. |
Use Scenario: Detecting stalled DC motors in power window or seat actuator systems by comparing back-EMF decay rate against timing threshold. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One comparator monitors current-sense amplifier output; second validates timing window via RC delay - both outputs feed MCU interrupt pins. Use Value: 200 ns propagation delay enables sub-millisecond fault response; open-collector outputs simplify OR-ing multiple stall signals. |
| Overtemperature Warning Circuit | Redundant Sensor Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing with NTC thermistor networks in engine coolant or inverter heatsink monitoring systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Comparator 1 triggers fan activation at 95°C; Comparator 2 asserts hard shutdown at 110°C - independent hysteresis paths. Use Value: Input common-mode range includes ground allows direct thermistor divider connection; AEC-Q100 qualification ensures field reliability. |
Use Scenario: Validating consistency between two independent pressure sensors in brake-by-wire or airbag deployment controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Each comparator checks one sensor's output against shared reference; mismatched outputs flag sensor disagreement. Use Value: Low input offset (7 mV typ) minimizes false alarms; dual-channel integration reduces PCB area vs. discrete solutions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV393QDRQ1 | Same silicon die, identical electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (2500 vs. 2500 units) and top-side marking (V393Q1 vs. G4Q1). | No functional difference - used interchangeably in production; G4Q1 variant may reflect specific wafer fab or test lot traceability. | Select LMV393QDRQ1 if standard TI ordering channel is preferred; LMV393QDRG4Q1 is fully compatible for drop-in replacement. |
| TLV3702IPWR | Higher precision (1.5 mV max VIO), rail-to-rail output, but higher ICC (35 μA per comparator), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Suitable for industrial sensor nodes where precision outweighs automotive qualification; not approved for safety-critical vehicle systems. | Choose TLV3702IPWR only for non-automotive applications requiring tighter offset or push-pull output; LMV393QDRG4Q1 remains mandatory for AEC-Q100 compliance. |
Compared with LMV393QDRQ1, LMV393QDRG4Q1 offers identical performance and qualification - differing only in traceable marking; versus TLV3702IPWR, it trades precision and output type for guaranteed automotive reliability and lower system-level validation effort.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for LMV393QDRG4Q1?
The LMV393QDRG4Q1 is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature and is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified. This specification is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108, with thermal design based on θJA = 97°C/W for the SOIC (D) package. The LMV393QDRG4Q1 maintains full electrical performance across this range, including input offset stability and propagation delay consistency.
Does LMV393QDRG4Q1 support single-supply operation?
Yes, LMV393QDRG4Q1 is explicitly designed for single-supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Its input common-mode range extends from ground to VCC+ − 0.2 V, and its open-collector outputs function correctly with a single positive rail and external pull-up. The LMV393QDRG4Q1 does not require split supplies or negative biasing - confirmed in TI's SLOS468D datasheet Section 6.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions).
What is the output configuration of LMV393QDRG4Q1?
The LMV393QDRG4Q1 features two independent open-collector NPN output stages (OUT1 and OUT2), each requiring an external pull-up resistor to define the high-state voltage. This configuration enables wired-OR logic, level translation between different voltage domains, and direct interfacing with microcontroller interrupt inputs. The LMV393QDRG4Q1 does not include internal pull-ups or push-pull outputs - verified in Figure 1 (Symbol) and Section 7.3 (Electrical Characteristics) of the datasheet.
Is LMV393QDRG4Q1 pin-compatible with standard LM393 devices?
No, LMV393QDRG4Q1 is not pin-compatible with industry-standard LM393 (SOIC-8) despite identical pin count and package outline. The LMV393QDRG4Q1 uses the same SOIC-8 (D) footprint but assigns pins differently: LM393 places GND at Pin 4 and VCC+ at Pin 8, whereas LMV393QDRG4Q1 swaps these (GND at Pin 4, VCC+ at Pin 8) - matching the LM393 pinout. However, LMV393QDRG4Q1 retains LM393-compatible pin mapping per TI's official documentation and layout examples.
What is the typical input bias current for LMV393QDRG4Q1?
The LMV393QDRG4Q1 exhibits a typical input bias current of 25 nA at 25°C and up to 400 nA across the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table (VCC+ = 5 V). This low bias current minimizes loading on high-impedance sources such as thermistor networks or capacitive touch sensors - a key advantage over older bipolar-input comparators like LM393 (typical 250 nA).
