Product details
Overview
TL3016IPWR from Texas Instruments is an ultrafast, low-power precision comparator with complementary TTL-compatible outputs, 7.6 ns typical propagation delay, ±5-V or single 5-V supply operation, and latch-enable functionality for timing-critical signal conditioning in high-speed data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the TL3016IPWR datasheet, TL3016IPWR pinout, TL3016IPWR application, or TL3016IPWR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases in analog-to-digital interfacing and pulse discrimination, and two confirmed functional alternatives with documented parameter trade-offs.
Technical Context
The TL3016IPWR employs a bipolar input stage with tightly controlled offset voltage (≤3 mV over full temperature range) and high open-loop gain (>97 dB CMRR), enabling precise threshold detection in noisy environments. Its latch-enable terminal allows synchronous capture of fast transient events without external logic.
It achieves 7.6 ns propagation delay at 20 mV overdrive while drawing only 10.6 mA typical positive supply current-half the power of the LT1016 it replaces. The complementary Q and Q̅ outputs drive TTL loads directly, eliminating level-shifting circuitry in mixed-signal interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation delay | 7.6 ns typ at 20 mV overdrive - enables sub-130 MHz sampling rate synchronization in ADC front-ends. |
| Input offset voltage | ≤3 mV over –40°C to +85°C - ensures ≤0.06% full-scale error in 5 V reference-based threshold detection. |
| Supply current | 10.6 mA typ (±5 V) - supports high-speed operation without thermal derating in compact PCB layouts. |
| Common-mode range | –3.75 V to +3.5 V (±5 V supply) - accommodates rail-to-rail input signals in industrial sensor interfaces. |
| Output drive | ±20 mA max sink/source - directly drives multiple TTL inputs or small capacitive loads (<20 pF) without buffers. |
| Latch enable threshold | VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V/5 V logic control signals for gated comparison. |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for automotive engine control modules and industrial PLC I/O cards. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-8 package (PW), 3.0 mm × 4.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VCC+ | Positive supply input | Accepts +5 V (single supply) or +5 V (split supply); decoupling required within 1 cm for stable 7.6 ns switching. |
| 2 - IN+ | Non-inverting input | Differential input with 6–10 µA bias current; common-mode range extends to –3.75 V under ±5 V supply. |
| 3 - IN– | Inverting input | Matches IN+ in offset and bias; supports hysteresis via feedback without degrading propagation delay. |
| 4 - VCC– | Negative supply input | Required for ±5 V operation; draws –1.3 to –2.4 mA; omitted when using single 5 V supply (GND used instead). |
| 5 - Q OUT | True output | Active-high TTL-compatible output; sinks 4 mA at ≤600 mV, sources 1 mA at ≥3.6 V (±5 V supply). |
| 6 - Q̅ OUT | Complementary output | Active-low inverted copy of Q OUT; enables differential signaling or OR/NOR logic without external inverters. |
| 7 - GND | Ground reference | Signal return for single-supply mode; must be low-impedance path to minimize ground bounce during 7.6 ns transitions. |
| 8 - LATCH ENABLE | Asynchronous latch control | High-impedance input with 0.8 V/2.0 V logic thresholds; enables edge-triggered capture of comparator state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast response | 7.6 ns propagation delay at 20 mV overdrive - meets timing budgets in >100 MSPS flash ADC drivers and laser pulse discriminators. |
| Low-power precision | 10.6 mA supply current with ≤3 mV offset - enables battery-operated portable test equipment with <10 µV/°C drift. |
| Flexible supply | Operates from single 5 V or split ±5 V - simplifies power architecture in mixed-voltage systems like motor drives and digital oscilloscopes. |
| Complementary outputs | Q and Q̅ outputs with matched rise/fall times - eliminates need for external inverters in RS-422 line receivers or clock recovery circuits. |
| Latch-enable capability | Dedicated LATCH ENABLE pin with TTL-compatible thresholds - supports synchronous sampling in time-of-flight sensors and phase-locked loop lock detectors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1016CS8#TRPBF | 11 ns propagation delay, 22 mA supply current, no latch-enable pin, SOIC-8 package | Lacks synchronous latching; requires external flip-flop for sampled comparison | Choose when absolute minimum propagation delay is not required and board space permits discrete latch logic. |
| MAX961ESA+ | 4.5 ns propagation delay, 5.5 mA supply current, single 2.7–5.5 V supply, no complementary outputs | Single-ended output only; requires external inverter for differential signaling | Prefer for ultra-low-power, single-supply portable instruments where 4.5 ns speed justifies added layout complexity. |
Compared with TL3016IPWR, LT1016CS8#TRPBF trades speed and latch integration for broader availability, while MAX961ESA+ delivers faster response and lower power but sacrifices output flexibility and latch control-making TL3016IPWR optimal for TTL-interfaced, latched high-speed thresholding where balanced performance and simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TL3016IPWR?
The TL3016IPWR is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for under-hood automotive applications and industrial environments with wide ambient fluctuations. This rating is validated per TI's production test flow and matches the "I" grade specification in the SLCS130D datasheet.
Does the TL3016IPWR require both positive and negative supplies to function?
No-the TL3016IPWR operates from either a single 5-V supply (with VCC– tied to GND) or dual ±5-V supplies. When using single supply, the common-mode input range shifts to 1.25 V–3.5 V, and the negative supply pin (Pin 4) must be connected to ground.
Can the TL3016IPWR drive standard TTL logic inputs directly?
Yes-the TL3016IPWR's Q and Q̅ outputs are fully TTL-compatible: VOH ≥ 3.6 V at 1 mA source current and VOL ≤ 600 mV at 4 mA sink current under ±5 V supply, meeting all standard TTL voltage thresholds without external pull-ups or buffers.
What is the purpose of the LATCH ENABLE pin on the TL3016IPWR?
The LATCH ENABLE pin (Pin 8) allows asynchronous latching of the comparator's output state. When asserted high, it freezes Q and Q̅ outputs to their current logic levels-enabling precise timing capture of fast transients in applications like time-of-flight measurement or glitch detection.
Is the TL3016IPWR pin-compatible with the LT1016 comparator?
Yes-the TL3016IPWR is explicitly specified as a pin-for-pin functional replacement for the LT1016, sharing identical TSSOP-8 pinout, supply connections, input/output assignments, and latch-enable behavior-though it delivers 30% faster propagation delay and 50% lower supply current.
