Product details
Overview
LT1017CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower dual comparator optimized for ultra-low supply current (30 μA typical at 5 V), 1.1 V minimum operating voltage, and rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground. It features internal pull-up current source, open-collector-compatible output capable of driving loads above V+, and 1 mV maximum offset voltage - enabling precision sensing in battery-powered refrigeration alarms, power monitors, and low-voltage oscillators.
For engineers reviewing the LT1017CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1017CS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1017CS8#TRPBF application, or LT1017CS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include micropower operation down to 1.1 V, guaranteed 1 mV max offset over 0°C–70°C, internal pull-up eliminating external resistors, output drive capability beyond V+, and compatibility with legacy LM393-style layouts.
Technical Context
The LT1017CS8#TRPBF implements two independent high-gain comparators with on-chip laser-trimmed input offset voltage and matched input transistors to minimize bias current (15 nA max) and offset current (3 nA max). Its class-B pull-up output stage delivers up to 70 mA sink current while eliminating external pull-up resistors and reducing quiescent power.
Input stage design supports common-mode voltages from V– to (V+ – 0.9 V), includes overdrive protection to prevent false outputs, and maintains >105 dB CMRR and >96 dB PSRR across temperature - critical for stable operation in noisy industrial sensor interfaces and low-voltage power sequencing circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.1 V to 40 V - enables direct operation from single alkaline cells or wide-input industrial rails. |
| Supply Current (Typ) | 30 μA at 5 V - reduces battery drain in multi-year portable sensor nodes. |
| Max Offset Voltage | 1 mV at 25°C - ensures accurate threshold detection in precision voltage monitors. |
| Input Bias Current (Max) | 15 nA - minimizes error in high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., thermistors, photodiodes). |
| Output Sink Current | 70 mA - directly drives relays, LEDs, or logic inputs without external buffers. |
| Common-Mode Range | V– to (V+ – 0.9 V) - supports ground-referenced inputs and single-supply operation. |
| Propagation Delay | 20 μs typical (RL = 200 kΩ, 10 mV overdrive) - suitable for slow-control timing and monitoring, not high-speed data acquisition. |
Pinout & Package
LT1017CS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package, 0.150-inch body width, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; device is RoHS-compliant and lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: –IN A | Inverting input of comparator A | Accepts signals down to V–; differential input voltage rating ±40 V. |
| 2: +IN A | Non-inverting input of comparator A | Supports common-mode range to V–; laser-trimmed for low offset. |
| 3: V– | Negative supply terminal | Reference for both comparators; may be tied to ground in single-supply use. |
| 4: OUT A | Open-collector output of comparator A | Sinks current only; requires external pull-up or uses internal 100 μA pull-up. |
| 5: OUT B | Open-collector output of comparator B | Independent sink path; shares same internal pull-up architecture as OUT A. |
| 6: –IN B | Inverting input of comparator B | Matched to –IN A for consistent performance across dual channels. |
| 7: +IN B | Non-inverting input of comparator B | Same input specs as +IN A; enables differential or window-comparator topologies. |
| 8: V+ | Positive supply terminal | Accepts up to 40 V; powers internal bias networks and output stage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Micropower operation | 30 μA typical supply current enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual micropower comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM393DR | Higher supply current (500 μA typ), no internal pull-up, 2 mV max offset, wider temp range (–40°C to 85°C). | Less suitable for battery life-critical designs; requires external pull-ups; better for cost-sensitive industrial controls. | Choose LM393DR where lowest BOM cost and extended temperature range outweigh micropower needs. |
| LTC1040CS8#TRPBF | Lower supply current (1.5 μW per sample), rail-to-rail inputs, but slower (200 μs propagation delay); 0.5 mV max offset. | Optimized for ultra-low-duty-cycle sampling (e.g., periodic sensor reads), not continuous monitoring. | Choose LTC1040CS8#TRPBF only for intermittent wake-up architectures where average current matters more than real-time response. |
Compared with LM393DR and LTC1040CS8#TRPBF, the LT1017CS8#TRPBF uniquely balances sub-100 μA continuous operation, 1 mV precision, and robust 70 mA sink drive - making it optimal for always-on, battery-powered monitoring where accuracy and longevity coexist.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for LT1017CS8#TRPBF?
The LT1017CS8#TRPBF operates down to 1.1 V, verified across the 0°C to 70°C commercial temperature range. This enables direct use with single 1.5 V alkaline or lithium cells in portable equipment. At 1.1 V, output sink current drops to ~10 mA, and propagation delay increases - design validation at end-of-battery voltage is recommended for critical timing applications. The LT1017CS8#TRPBF maintains functional comparision down to this rail, unlike many comparators requiring ≥2.7 V.
Does LT1017CS8#TRPBF have internal pull-up current, and how does it work?
Yes, the LT1017CS8#TRPBF integrates a class-B pull-up current source (~100 μA typical) on each output, eliminating the need for external pull-up resistors. This reduces PCB area, component count, and standby power - especially valuable in battery-operated systems. The internal pull-up allows the output to rise toward V+ even when driving light loads, while retaining open-collector behavior for wired-OR configurations. The LT1017CS8#TRPBF datasheet confirms this feature enables "eliminating the need for an external resistive pull-up and saving power."
Can LT1017CS8#TRPBF drive loads referenced to a voltage higher than V+?
Yes, the LT1017CS8#TRPBF output stage is explicitly designed to drive loads connected to a supply more positive than V+, as confirmed in the official datasheet: "The output stage is also designed to allow driving loads connected to a supply more positive than the device." This is achieved via the open-collector architecture combined with internal clamping - enabling direct interface to 12 V or 24 V logic domains from a 3.3 V or 5 V LT1017CS8#TRPBF supply, without external level shifters.
What is the guaranteed maximum input offset voltage for LT1017CS8#TRPBF over temperature?
The LT1017CS8#TRPBF guarantees a maximum input offset voltage of 1 mV over the full commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value includes initial trim and drift contributions. At 125°C (extended range), the max offset rises to 1.5 mV. The LT1017CS8#TRPBF achieves this via on-chip laser trimming, and the spec is tested and binned - not just typical or guaranteed only at 25°C.
Is LT1017CS8#TRPBF pin-compatible with LM393-type comparators?
Yes, the LT1017CS8#TRPBF is pin-compatible with industry-standard dual comparators including the LM393, as stated in the datasheet: "The LT1017/LT1018 are pin compatible with older dual comparators such as 393 type devices." Pin mapping (1: –IN A, 2: +IN A, 3: V–, 4: OUT A, 5: OUT B, 6: –IN B, 7: +IN B, 8: V+) matches the SOIC-8 LM393 footprint exactly - enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout changes, provided supply and loading requirements are verified.
