Product details
Overview
TLV1391IDBVR 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 battery-level detection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TLV1391IDBVR datasheet, TLV1391IDBVR pinout, TLV1391IDBVR application, or TLV1391IDBVR equivalent, key selection criteria include temperature range (−40°C to 85°C), SOT-23-5 package compatibility, output drive capability (600 µA sink at 5 V), input offset voltage (≤9 mV over full temperature range), and low-power performance in portable and industrial sensing systems.
Technical Context
The TLV1391IDBVR implements a bipolar comparator core with enhanced speed and low-voltage operation, enabling reliable decision-making in 3-V and 5-V systems where legacy LM393 devices fall short in response time and supply current. Its input stage supports common-mode voltages down to ground, eliminating level-shifting requirements in single-supply sensor interfaces.
Output stage is open-collector, requiring an external pull-up resistor to define logic-high voltage and load current capability; it delivers up to 600 µA sink current at 5 V while maintaining 120–300 mV low-level output voltage across temperature. The device is fully specified over −40°C to 85°C and qualified for industrial 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 | Slower response (1.3 µs typ), higher ICC (500 µA typ), wider offset (±2 mV min), only specified down to 2 V with degraded performance | Not suitable for <1 µs timing-critical detection or sub-100 µA battery systems | Select TLV1391IDBVR when speed, low ICC, or guaranteed 3-V operation is required |
| TLV7211CDBVR | CMOS input (pA bias), rail-to-rail output, but slower (1.5 µs), higher ICC (120 µA), narrower temp range (0°C to 70°C) | Lacks industrial temperature rating and open-collector flexibility for wired-OR logic | Choose TLV1391IDBVR for industrial-grade open-collector outputs and faster response in 3-V systems |
Compared with LM393DR and TLV7211CDBVR, the TLV1391IDBVR uniquely balances sub-µs speed, 80 µA quiescent current, −40°C to 85°C qualification, and open-collector output in SOT-23-5 - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive industrial monitors where timing and reliability are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for TLV1391IDBVR?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for TLV1391IDBVR is 7 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation beyond this voltage risks permanent device damage. For reliable long-term function, 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.
Does TLV1391IDBVR have rail-to-rail input capability?
Yes, TLV1391IDBVR supports a common-mode input voltage range from ground (0 V) to VCC−2 V, explicitly including ground in single-supply configurations. This rail-to-ground input capability eliminates the need for input biasing networks when interfacing with sensors, resistive dividers, or current-sense amplifiers referenced to system ground.
Is TLV1391IDBVR pin-compatible with LM393?
No, TLV1391IDBVR is not pin-compatible with LM393. While both are single comparators, TLV1391IDBVR uses a 5-pin SOT-23-5 (DBV) package with dedicated GND and VCC pins, whereas LM393 uses an 8-pin SOIC or 8-pin PDIP package with dual comparators and shared supply pins. Direct replacement requires PCB layout revision.
What is the output configuration of TLV1391IDBVR?
TLV1391IDBVR features an open-collector output (Pin 5), requiring an external pull-up resistor to define the logic-high voltage level and current-sinking capability. It can sink up to 600 µA at 5 V while maintaining VOL ≤ 300 mV across temperature - ideal for driving TTL/CMOS inputs, optocouplers, or discrete transistors.
What temperature range is TLV1391IDBVR qualified for?
TLV1391IDBVR is qualified for operation from −40°C to +85°C, designated by the "I" grade in the part number. This industrial temperature range is verified per TI's production testing standards and supports deployment in demanding environments such as factory automation, outdoor instrumentation, and automotive cabin modules.
