Product details
Overview
TLV1391CDBVR from Texas Instruments is a single high-speed differential comparator optimized for low-voltage, single-supply operation (2 V to 7 V), featuring 0.7 µs typical response time at 3 V, 80 µA typical supply current, and rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground - used in precision voltage monitoring and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TLV1391CDBVR datasheet, TLV1391CDBVR pinout, TLV1391CDBVR application, or TLV1391CDBVR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOT-23-5 package layout, functional role in threshold detection, and validated alternative comparators for 3-V/5-V embedded systems.
Technical Context
The TLV1391CDBVR implements a bipolar-input differential comparator architecture with open-collector output, supporting TTL/CMOS-compatible logic interfacing via external pull-up. Its input stage operates down to ground, enabling direct sensing of 0-V reference points without level-shifting.
It is fully specified across 0°C to 70°C ambient temperature and supports dual supply configurations (e.g., ±3.5 V) within absolute maximum ratings, while maintaining sub-millivolt input offset voltage (1.5 mV typ) and nanosecond-scale propagation delay stability under 15-pF capacitive loading.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 7 V - enables direct integration into 3.3-V and 5-V logic domains without regulation. |
| Response Time | 0.7 µs typ at 3 V - supports fast edge detection in power sequencing and fault-response circuits. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.5 mV typ - ensures accurate threshold comparison for battery voltage monitoring and sensor trip points. |
| Supply Current | 80 µA typ - allows continuous operation in always-on battery-powered applications like IoT node supervisors. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | 0 V to VCC−2 V - permits ground-referenced input signals without biasing networks. |
| Output Type | Open-collector - enables wired-OR configuration and flexible logic-level translation via external pull-up. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial-grade industrial control and consumer electronics environments. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.45 mm body, surface-mount, tape-and-reel (3000 pcs), RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN−) | Inverting input | Accepts reference or feedback signal; differential pair input node with 5 nA max input bias current. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for supply and inputs; common-mode range extends to this pin (0 V inclusive). |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | Accepts sensed signal; matched to IN− for <9 mV max input offset across full temperature range. |
| 4 (VCC) | Positive supply | Single supply input (2–7 V); powers internal bipolar circuitry and defines output high-state ceiling. |
| 5 (OUT) | Open-collector output | Drives low when IN+ > IN−; requires external pull-up for logic-high assertion; sinks up to 20 mA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-voltage operation | Functional down to 2-V supply - eliminates need for dedicated 5-V rails in modern mixed-signal systems. |
| Ground-sensing input | Common-mode range includes 0 V - enables direct interface with shunt-based current monitors and battery terminals. |
| Sub-µs propagation delay | 0.65 µs typ at 5 V - reduces timing uncertainty in power-good assertion and watchdog timeout circuits. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 80 µA typ - extends battery life in portable equipment where comparator remains active during sleep modes. |
| Robust ESD rating | 2 kV HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for industrial board-level surge immunity without added protection. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar differential comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM393DR | Higher supply current (500 µA typ), slower response (1.3 µs), wider offset (2 mV typ), same SOT-23-8 but different pinout. | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; suitable only where ultra-low power is not required. | Select LM393DR only if legacy design reuse or cost sensitivity outweighs power/performance needs. |
| TLV7011DBVR | Lower supply current (350 nA), slower response (2.5 µs), rail-to-rail input/output, push-pull output (no pull-up needed). | Push-pull output simplifies interface but prevents wired-OR; better for low-power sensor nodes than fast power supervision. | Choose TLV7011DBVR when nanowatt operation is mandatory and microsecond response is acceptable. |
Compared with TLV1391CDBVR, LM393DR trades speed and efficiency for broader legacy support, while TLV7011DBVR prioritizes ultra-low power over propagation delay - making TLV1391CDBVR optimal for 3-V/5-V systems needing both speed and sub-100-µA quiescent current.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for TLV1391CDBVR?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for TLV1391CDBVR is 7 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation beyond this value risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term use, TI recommends staying within the recommended operating range of 2 V to 7 V, with full electrical specifications guaranteed at 3 V and 5 V supplies.
Does TLV1391CDBVR support ground-referenced inputs?
Yes, TLV1391CDBVR supports ground-referenced inputs: its common-mode input voltage range explicitly includes 0 V (ground) across the full operating temperature range. This allows direct connection of one input to ground or to low-side current-sense shunts without external biasing networks.
What is the output configuration of TLV1391CDBVR?
TLV1391CDBVR features an open-collector output. It actively pulls the output pin low when the non-inverting input exceeds the inverting input; otherwise, the output floats and requires an external pull-up resistor to define the high logic state. This configuration enables wired-OR functionality and flexible voltage-level translation.
Is TLV1391CDBVR pin-compatible with LM393?
No, TLV1391CDBVR is not pin-compatible with LM393. TLV1391CDBVR uses a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package with pins IN−, GND, IN+, VCC, OUT. LM393 typically uses an 8-pin SOIC or DIP package with different pin assignments and dual-channel topology. Direct replacement requires PCB layout modification.
What is the typical input offset voltage of TLV1391CDBVR at room temperature?
The typical input offset voltage of TLV1391CDBVR at 25°C is 1.5 mV, with a maximum of 9 mV across the full operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C). This specification is measured under standard test conditions (VCC = 3 V or 5 V) and directly impacts threshold accuracy in precision monitoring applications.
