Product details
Overview
LMV7235M7X from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power, rail-to-rail input comparator with open-drain output, designed for single-supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. It delivers 75 ns propagation delay at 5 V, consumes only 65 µA supply current, and supports input common-mode voltage from −0.2 V to 5.2 V - enabling ground- and supply-sensing in portable battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMV7235M7X datasheet, LMV7235M7X pinout, LMV7235M7X application, or LMV7235M7X equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternative options, and supply-chain support details specific to the LMV7235M7X SOT-23-5 variant.
Technical Context
The LMV7235M7X uses a complementary PNP/NPN input stage enabling rail-to-rail input operation with extended common-mode range (−0.2 V to VCC + 0.1 V). Its open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor, allowing level shifting and wired-OR logic configurations.
It achieves 75 ns propagation delay at 5 V with 100 mV overdrive and 15 pF load, while maintaining stable performance across −40°C to +85°C. Input offset voltage is ±1 mV (typ), and supply current remains ≤95 µA (max) over full operating temperature and voltage range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 75 ns at VS = 5 V, 100 mV overdrive, CL = 15 pF - enables high-speed zero-crossing and sampling up to ~10 MHz system timing |
| Supply Current | 65 µA typical at 5 V - supports >1-year battery life in always-on sensor wake-up circuits |
| Input Common-Mode Range | −0.2 V to VCC + 0.1 V - allows direct sensing of signals below ground or above supply without level-shifting circuitry |
| Output Type | Open-drain - permits flexible pull-up to any voltage ≤5.5 V for I²C-compatible or mixed-voltage interfacing |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - interoperable with Li-ion, Li-Po, and regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails without external regulators |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1 mV typical at 25°C - ensures accurate threshold detection in precision window comparators |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±1000 V - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry |
Pinout & Package
LMV7235M7X is packaged in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) with body size 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VOUT | Open-drain output | Active-low output requiring external pull-up; supports level shifting, bus arbitration, and wired-OR logic |
| 2 - V− | Negative supply / ground | Reference node for single-supply operation; accepts 0 V or negative bias if used in split-supply configuration |
| 3 - IN+ | Non-inverting input | High-impedance node (400 nA max bias current); connects to reference or signal source in threshold-detection topologies |
| 4 - IN− | Inverting input | High-impedance node; used for feedback in hysteresis circuits or as signal input in inverting comparator configurations |
| 5 - V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; supplies internal bias and defines output high-level when pulled up externally |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input with extended range | Operates with inputs 200 mV beyond supply rails - eliminates need for external clamping or attenuation in supply-monitoring circuits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV7235M5X | Identical electrical specs; packaged in 5-pin SC70 (2.00 mm × 1.25 mm) - 30% smaller footprint than SOT-23 | Preferred for ultra-dense layouts (e.g., wearables), but less robust for manual rework or thermal cycling | Select LMV7235M5X when board space is constrained and automated assembly is used; LMV7235M7X preferred for prototyping and thermal reliability. |
| TLV3501DBVR | Higher speed (4.5 ns), higher supply current (5.3 mA), push-pull output - no external pull-up required | Suitable for high-frequency sampling clocks (>100 MHz), but incompatible with wired-OR or level-shifting use cases | Choose TLV3501DBVR only when nanosecond timing is mandatory and open-drain functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with LMV7235M7X, LMV7235M5X offers identical performance in a smaller package ideal for miniaturized designs, while TLV3501DBVR trades ultra-low power and open-drain flexibility for raw speed - making LMV7235M7X the optimal balance for battery-sensitive, multi-voltage, or bus-shared applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for LMV7235M7X?
The LMV7235M7X is specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. Its thermal resistance (θJA) is 265°C/W in the SOT-23-5 package, supporting reliable performance in industrial environments without forced cooling. Full electrical characteristics are guaranteed across this range per TI's SNOS532O datasheet revision O.
Does LMV7235M7X require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes, LMV7235M7X features an open-drain output and requires an external pull-up resistor to function correctly. The resistor value depends on rise-time requirements and pull-up voltage - typically 10 kΩ for 3.3 V pull-up yields <100 ns rise time with 15 pF load. No pull-up is needed for LMV7239 variants, which use push-pull outputs.
Can LMV7235M7X operate from a 2.7 V supply?
Yes, LMV7235M7X is fully specified for 2.7 V to 5.5 V single-supply operation. At 2.7 V, propagation delay increases to 85 ns (100 mV overdrive, 15 pF load), and supply current drops to 52 µA typical - making it ideal for coin-cell or single-LiFePO₄ powered devices where low-voltage headroom is essential.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of LMV7235M7X?
The LMV7235M7X supports an input common-mode voltage range from −0.2 V to VCC + 0.1 V. At 5 V supply, this spans −0.2 V to 5.1 V - enabling direct sensing of signals below ground (e.g., shunt current monitors) or above the supply (e.g., overvoltage flags), without external level-shifting components.
Is LMV7235M7X pin-compatible with LMV7239M7X?
No, LMV7235M7X and LMV7239M7X share identical pinout and package (SOT-23-5), but differ in output structure: LMV7235M7X has open-drain output, while LMV7239M7X has push-pull. Swapping them requires circuit modification - LMV7235M7X needs a pull-up resistor; LMV7239M7X does not. They are not drop-in replacements.
