Product details
Overview
TLC3702CPWR from Texas Instruments is a dual micropower LinCMOS™ voltage comparator with push-pull CMOS outputs, 100 μW typical supply power at 5 V, 2.7 μs typical propagation delay (tPLH) with 5-mV overdrive, and single-supply operation from 3 V to 16 V. It replaces LM339 in low-power sensing and threshold-detection circuits where board space and energy efficiency are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TLC3702CPWR datasheet, TLC3702CPWR pinout, TLC3702CPWR application, or TLC3702CPWR equivalent, this device delivers verified micropower performance, rail-to-rail input compatibility, TTL/CMOS output interoperability, and ESD-protected inputs - key selection criteria for battery-powered instrumentation, industrial monitoring, and precision analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The TLC3702CPWR integrates two independent comparators on a LinCMOS™ process, enabling stable input offset voltage (≤5 mV max at 25°C) and ultra-low input bias current (≤5 pA typ at 25°C) across its 0°C to 70°C commercial temperature range. Its push-pull output stage eliminates external pullup resistors while delivering ±8 mA drive capability and full TTL compatibility.
This variant uses the P package (plastic DIP), features no internal connections on pins 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20, and supports capacitive loads up to 50 pF without oscillation or response degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V - enables direct interface with 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Typical Supply Current | 40 μA at 5 V - reduces quiescent power by 95% versus LM339, extending battery life in portable sensors. |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH) | 2.7 μs at 5-mV overdrive - supports fast edge detection in motor control feedback and overvoltage latch circuits. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ≤5 mV at 25°C - ensures accurate threshold setting in precision window comparators and zero-crossing detectors. |
| Output Drive Capability | ±8 mA - directly drives LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs without external buffers or pullups. |
| Input Bias Current | 5 pA typical at 25°C - minimizes error in high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., thermistors, photodiodes). |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for robust handling in automated assembly lines. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Plastic Dual-In-Line (P), 20-pin, through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is top-left corner when notch faces upward; pin numbering proceeds counter-clockwise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1OUT | Comparator 1 push-pull output - sinks or sources current; no external pullup required. |
| 2 | 1IN− | Inverting input of comparator 1 - accepts common-mode voltages from −0.2 V to VDD − 1.5 V. |
| 3 | 1IN+ | Non-inverting input of comparator 1 - same common-mode range as 1IN−. |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for stable operation. |
| 5 | VDD | Positive supply rail - powers both comparators; decoupling capacitor (0.1 μF) required near pin. |
| 6 | 2OUT | Comparator 2 push-pull output - electrically isolated from 1OUT; shares same drive specs. |
| 7 | 2IN− | Inverting input of comparator 2 - independent of comparator 1 inputs; supports differential sensing. |
| 8 | 2IN+ | Non-inverting input of comparator 2 - fully independent; enables dual-threshold or hysteresis configurations. |
| 9–20 | NC | No internal connection - floating pins; must remain unconnected per datasheet guidance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Push-pull CMOS output | Eliminates need for external pullup resistors, saving PCB area, BOM cost, and power dissipation. |
| LinCMOS™ process technology | Delivers <5 pA input bias current and <5 mV input offset voltage - critical for high-impedance signal chains. |
| Single-supply operation | Operates from 3 V to 16 V - compatible with Li-ion, USB, and industrial 12 V rails without auxiliary supplies. |
| On-chip ESD protection | 2000 V HBM rating - prevents field failure during handling and reflow, reducing test escapes. |
| TTL/CMOS output compatibility | VOH ≥ 4.5 V and VOL ≤ 300 mV at 4 mA - ensures reliable logic-level interfacing with microcontrollers and FPGAs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM393DR | Higher supply current (500 μA typ), open-collector output requiring external pullup resistor. | Less suitable for ultra-low-power designs; better for higher-speed (>1 μs) but non-critical power applications. | Select LM393DR only if legacy design reuse or cost sensitivity outweighs micropower and board-space advantages. |
| TLC3702IDR | Same die, extended industrial temperature range (−40°C to 85°C); otherwise identical electrical specs. | Required for automotive under-hood or outdoor industrial deployments where ambient exceeds 70°C. | Choose TLC3702IDR when operating environment exceeds 70°C; no layout or firmware changes needed. |
Compared with LM393DR, TLC3702CPWR reduces quiescent power by 92% and removes pullup components; compared with TLC3702IDR, it trades temperature range for lower cost in commercial-grade applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the TLC3702CPWR?
The TLC3702CPWR is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C, matching the commercial temperature grade. Exceeding 70°C may cause increased input offset voltage (up to 6.5 mV over full range) and reduced reliability. For extended temperature operation, consider TLC3702IDR (−40°C to 85°C) or TLC3702MDR (−55°C to 125°C). Always verify thermal derating using the dissipation rating table in the datasheet.
Does the TLC3702CPWR require external pullup resistors on its outputs?
No, the TLC3702CPWR features push-pull CMOS outputs that actively drive high and low states without external pullup resistors. This eliminates associated power loss, board space, and component count - unlike open-collector comparators such as LM393. The output delivers VOH ≥ 4.5 V and VOL ≤ 300 mV at 4 mA load when VDD = 5 V.
Can the TLC3702CPWR operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the TLC3702CPWR supports supply voltages from 3 V to 16 V, making it fully compatible with 3.3 V systems. At 3.3 V, typical supply current remains ~40 μA, and propagation delay increases slightly to ~3.5 μs (tPLH) with 5-mV overdrive. Output swing is rail-to-rail, with VOH ≈ 3.0 V and VOL ≈ 300 mV under 4 mA load.
How does the input protection circuitry in the TLC3702CPWR handle overvoltage conditions?
The TLC3702CPWR includes patented TI ESD-protection circuitry that clamps positive transients above VDD + 0.7 V via Q1 and negative transients below GND − 0.3 V via D1. Input current is internally limited to ±5 mA. For sustained overvoltage beyond the common-mode range (e.g., VIC > VDD − 1.5 V), external current-limiting resistors are required per Figure 4 in the datasheet to prevent damage.
Is the TLC3702CPWR pin-compatible with the LM339?
No, the TLC3702CPWR is not pin-compatible with the LM339. The LM339 uses a 14-pin SOIC or DIP package with open-collector outputs and different pin assignments (e.g., VCC on pin 16, GND on pin 4). The TLC3702CPWR uses a 20-pin P package with push-pull outputs and NC pins occupying positions unused in LM339. Board redesign is required for substitution.
