Product details
Overview
LT1711IMS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a single ultrafast rail-to-rail input/output comparator with internal TTL/CMOS-compatible latch, optimized for 2.4V–12V single or ±2.4V–±6V dual supplies. It delivers 4.5ns propagation delay at 20mV overdrive, rail-to-rail complementary outputs capable of sinking 10mA to within 0.5V of GND and sourcing 10mA to within 0.7V of V+, and operates across –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the LT1711IMS8#PBF datasheet, LT1711IMS8#PBF pinout, LT1711IMS8#PBF application, or LT1711IMS8#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include latch timing parameters (tSU = 1ns, tLPD = 5ns), input common-mode range extending 100mV beyond both rails, differential propagation delay ≤1.5ns, output jitter of 11psRMS at 30MHz, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LT1711IMS8#PBF employs a high-speed bipolar front-end with matched NPN/PNP input pairs enabling rail-to-rail operation and low input offset voltage drift (10µV/°C). Its latch circuit features built-in 100mV hysteresis on the LATCH ENABLE pin to reject noise, with setup time of 1ns and hold time of 0ns - enabling reliable data capture in high-frequency sampling systems.
Propagation delay is specified under controlled overdrive conditions (20mV/5mV), load capacitance (10pF), and supply configurations (2.7V/5V/±5V); differential delay (≤1.5ns) and sub-2ns rise/fall times (tr/tf = 2ns) support precise timing discrimination in pulse-width modulation and A/D converter clocking applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 4.5ns at 20mV overdrive - enables sub-5ns decision timing in high-speed test equipment and sampling circuits |
| Input Common-Mode Range | –0.1V to V+ + 0.1V - supports inputs exceeding supply rails by 100mV without phase reversal |
| Output Drive Capability | Sinks 10mA to 0.5V above GND; sources 10mA to 0.7V below V+ - directly interfaces with TTL/CMOS logic without level-shifting |
| Latch Timing | tSU = 1ns, tLPD = 5ns - allows tight synchronization with fast digital control signals |
| Supply Voltage Range | Single: 2.4V–12V; Dual: ±2.4V–±6V - supports legacy 5V, modern 3V, and precision ±5V systems |
| Output Timing Jitter | 11psRMS at 30MHz - critical for low-jitter clock recovery and high-fidelity signal discrimination |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial embedded and automotive-adjacent timing applications |
Pinout & Package
LT1711IMS8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP package (3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for thermal performance (θJA = 250°C/W) and high-density routing. Pin 1 is V+, Pin 2 is +IN, Pin 3 is –IN, Pin 4 is V–, Pin 5 is LATCH ENABLE, Pin 6 is GND, Pin 7 is Q (noninverting output), and Pin 8 is Q̅ (inverting output).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ (Pin 1) | Positive supply input | Accepts 2.4V–12V single or positive rail of dual supply; requires local 1000pF + 0.1µF bypassing |
| +IN (Pin 2) | Noninverting input | Rail-to-rail capable; supports common-mode voltages down to –0.1V and up to V+ + 0.1V |
| –IN (Pin 3) | Inverting input | Matched to +IN; differential input voltage rated to ±12.6V absolute maximum |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply input | Accepts 0V (single-supply) or –7V to 0V (dual-supply); must not exceed V+ by >12V |
| LATCH ENABLE (Pin 5) | Digital latch control | Logic-high enables output latching; 100mV hysteresis prevents false triggering on slow/noisy edges |
| GND (Pin 6) | Ground reference | Return path for output currents and internal bias; must be tied to low-impedance ground plane |
| Q (Pin 7) | Noninverting output | Active-high rail-to-rail CMOS/TTL-compatible output; sinks 10mA, sources 10mA |
| Q̅ (Pin 8) | Inverting output | Complementary to Q; enables differential signaling or logic-level inversion without external gates |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast 4.5ns propagation delay | Enables real-time decision making in automatic test equipment operating above 100MHz toggle frequency |
| Rail-to-rail complementary outputs | Eliminates need for external level shifters when driving 3.3V/5V logic families directly |
| Input overvoltage tolerance | Withstands inputs 100mV beyond supply rails without phase reversal - critical in sensor interface and fault-tolerant designs |
| Integrated latch with hysteresis | Reduces external component count in sampled-data systems while rejecting noise on latch control lines |
| Wide supply flexibility | Operates identically across 2.7V, 5V, and ±5V configurations - simplifies design reuse across power domains |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1719IS6#TRMPBF | Single-supply only (2.7V–6V); no negative supply support; 4.5ns delay; rail-to-rail outputs with level-shifting capability | Better suited for battery-powered 3.3V systems; lacks dual-supply flexibility and latch function | Select when system uses only positive supply and requires integrated level shifting for mixed-voltage logic interfacing |
| LMH7322MA/NOPB | 4.5ns delay; dual-channel; no internal latch; higher supply current (24mA per channel); wider common-mode range (–0.2V to V+ + 0.2V) | Preferred for dual-comparator needs where latch is implemented externally; higher power consumption | Select when two independent high-speed comparators are required and latch functionality can be added via FPGA or discrete logic |
Compared with LT1711IMS8#PBF, LT1719IS6#TRMPBF trades dual-supply operation and latch integration for lower quiescent current and level-shifting outputs, while LMH7322MA/NOPB provides dual-channel density at the cost of increased power and loss of on-chip latching - making LT1711IMS8#PBF optimal for space-constrained, latch-dependent single-channel industrial timing applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for LT1711IMS8#PBF?
The LT1711IMS8#PBF supports a maximum total supply voltage of 12.6V across V+ and V– pins. In single-supply mode, V+ may range from 2.4V to 12.6V relative to V– (typically GND). In dual-supply mode, V+ to V– must not exceed 12.6V, with V– ranging from –7V to 0V and V+ from 2.4V to 7V. Exceeding these limits risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does LT1711IMS8#PBF require external hysteresis for stable operation?
No, the LT1711IMS8#PBF does not require external hysteresis for basic comparator operation due to its internal architecture, but hysteresis is recommended in noisy environments. The device supports flexible external hysteresis via feedback resistors from Q or Q̅ to +IN or –IN, enabled by rail-to-rail inputs and complementary outputs - unlike many comparators, it imposes no common-mode restrictions on such feedback paths.
Can LT1711IMS8#PBF operate from a 3.3V single supply?
Yes, the LT1711IMS8#PBF is fully specified and characterized at 2.7V, 5V, and ±5V supplies - including all key parameters (propagation delay, input offset, output swing) across the –40°C to +85°C range. At 3.3V, it maintains 4.5ns typical propagation delay, rail-to-rail input range (–0.1V to 3.4V), and output drive capability sufficient for direct connection to 3.3V CMOS logic.
What is the purpose of the LATCH ENABLE pin on LT1711IMS8#PBF?
The LATCH ENABLE pin (Pin 5) controls the internal TTL/CMOS-compatible latch: when held high, the comparator output state is frozen and retained regardless of subsequent input changes. This enables synchronous sampling in high-speed systems. The pin includes 100mV hysteresis to prevent chatter from slow-rising or noisy control signals, and requires only 1ns setup time before latch assertion - a key feature distinguishing LT1711IMS8#PBF from latchless comparators.
Is LT1711IMS8#PBF pin-compatible with other comparators in the LT171x family?
No, LT1711IMS8#PBF is not pin-compatible with LT1712 (16-pin SSOP) or LT1713/LT1714 (8-pin SOIC variants). While functional and electrical characteristics align closely across the LT171x family, the LT1711IMS8#PBF uses an 8-pin MSOP package with unique pinout: V+, +IN, –IN, V–, LATCH ENABLE, GND, Q, Q̅ - differing from SOIC versions that relocate GND and rearrange output pins.
