Product details
Overview
LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an ultralow-power single comparator with integrated 1.182V ±1% precision reference, programmable hysteresis via HYST pin, TTL/CMOS-compatible output capable of sourcing 40mA, and supply current as low as 2.1µA at 25°C. It operates from a single 2V–11V supply or dual ±1V–±5.5V supply and is used in battery-powered voltage monitoring, micropower threshold detection, and low-glitch level sensing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 2.1µA max quiescent current over temperature, 1.182V reference accuracy across –40°C to +85°C, hysteresis programmability using external resistors, GND-referenced output swing, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained portable designs.
Technical Context
The LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF integrates a bandgap reference and a rail-to-rail input comparator in a single die, with separate ground (Pin 1) and negative supply (Pin 2) terminals enabling true split-supply operation. Its input common-mode range extends from V– to V+ – 1.3V, and the reference output drives up to 0.01µF without oscillation-critical for noise-sensitive battery-monitoring applications.
Unlike standard comparators, it eliminates crowbar current during output transitions, preventing supply glitches. The HYST pin allows precise hysteresis control (REF – 50mV to REF), yielding up to 100mV input hysteresis band, while maintaining sub-10nA input leakage and 12µs propagation delay with 10mV overdrive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 2.1µA typ at 25°C; ensures >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered systems |
| Reference Voltage | 1.182V ±1% (0°C to 70°C); enables accurate, self-contained threshold generation without external references |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±3mV max over temp; supports reliable detection of small signal differentials (e.g., <10mV) |
| Propagation Delay | 12µs with 10mV overdrive; suitable for slow-varying DC monitoring, not high-speed edge detection |
| Output Drive | Sources 40mA continuously; directly drives LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs without buffer stages |
| Hysteresis Range | 0–100mV input hysteresis band; prevents chatter near trip points in noisy environments |

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (MS8), 3mm × 3mm footprint, 0.65mm pitch, exposed pad optional for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 1) | Comparator output stage ground | Must be connected to system ground for single-supply operation; separates output return path from V– |
| V– (Pin 2) | Negative supply rail | Connect to GND for single supply; or to negative rail for ±1V to ±5.5V dual supply |
| IN+ (Pin 3) | Noninverting input | Accepts signals from V– to V+ – 1.3V; 10pA leakage preserves high-Z source integrity |
| IN– (Pin 4) | Inverting input | Same common-mode range as IN+; differential input pairs enable precision window or zero-crossing detection |
| HYST (Pin 5) | Hysteresis control input | Accepts voltage from REF – 50mV to REF; sets hysteresis band via resistor divider |
| REF (Pin 6) | 1.182V reference output | Drives 0.01µF bypass cap directly; sources up to 200µA; referenced to V– |
| V+ (Pin 7) | Positive supply rail | 2V–11V operation; bypass with 0.1µF if sourcing >1mA from output |
| OUT (Pin 8) | CMOS output | Swings GND to V+; sinks 5mA, sources 40mA; no crowbar current minimizes supply noise |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower comparator with reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX921ESA+ | Higher 10µA supply current; fixed 1.25V reference; no hysteresis pin; SO-8 only | Less suitable for <5µA battery systems; requires external hysteresis circuitry | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs ultra-low-ICC and hysteresis flexibility |
| LTC1540IDC#TRPBF | 0.3µA supply current; same 1.182V reference; DFN-6 package; no HYST pin | Superior for nanopower use cases but lacks programmable hysteresis and MSOP-8 footprint | Prefer for longest battery life where hysteresis is implemented externally or not required |
Compared with MAX921ESA+ and LTC1540IDC#TRPBF, the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF uniquely balances ultralow 2.1µA supply current, on-chip hysteresis control, and industry-standard MSOP-8 packaging-making it optimal for space- and power-constrained threshold detection where design simplicity and long service life are critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C (I-grade). Its supply current remains ≤4.4µA across this full range, and the 1.182V reference maintains ±1.2% accuracy. This makes LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF suitable for automotive cabin modules, outdoor IoT sensors, and industrial controls exposed to ambient thermal extremes without derating.
Can the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF drive a 0.01µF capacitor directly on its REF pin?
Yes-the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF reference output is explicitly characterized to drive up to 0.01µF capacitive loads without oscillation. This capability eliminates the need for external buffering when decoupling the reference for noise-sensitive comparator applications. For larger capacitors (up to 100µF), a series damping resistor (e.g., 10kΩ for 1µF) is required per Figure 1 in the datasheet.
How is hysteresis programmed on the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF?
Hysteresis is programmed by connecting two external resistors between REF, HYST, and V– pins. The voltage difference between REF and HYST sets the hysteresis band: VHB = 2 × (VREF – VHYST). With VHYST ranging from REF – 50mV to REF, the maximum input hysteresis is 100mV. The LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF datasheet provides exact resistor equations and example circuits (Figures 4 and 5).
Does the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF support dual-supply operation?
Yes-the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF supports true dual-supply operation from ±1V to ±5.5V. Pin 2 (V–) serves as the negative rail, Pin 1 (GND) is the output stage ground (tied to V– for dual supply), and Pin 7 (V+) is the positive rail. This configuration enables rail-to-rail input operation and output swing from V– to V+, making LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF compatible with legacy ±5V or ±3.3V systems.
What is the maximum continuous output source current of the LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1440CMS8#TRPBF output stage can continuously source up to 40mA while maintaining microamp-level quiescent current. This is verified across temperature and supply voltage (2V–11V). The output remains functional even under short-circuit conditions at V+ ≤ 5.5V, supporting direct LED driving, small solenoid actuation, or logic-level translation without external drivers.
