Product details
Overview
TLV1812DSGR from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, rail-to-rail input comparator with push-pull output, operating from 2.4 V to 40 V supply, featuring 5 µA per channel quiescent current, 420 ns typical propagation delay, and Power-On Reset (POR) for deterministic startup in industrial motor drives and factory automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLV1812DSGR datasheet, TLV1812DSGR pinout, TLV1812DSGR application, or TLV1812DSGR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, dual-comparator functional context, package-confirmed thermal performance, and real-world implementation guidance for high-voltage, low-power sensing circuits.
Technical Context
The TLV1812DSGR implements two independent high-voltage comparators with rail-to-rail inputs spanning (V−) − 0.2 V to (V+) + 0.2 V and internal POR circuitry that holds outputs low during power ramp-up until V+ exceeds 2.4 V and stabilizes for ≥200 µs. Its push-pull output stage sinks and sources up to 4 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 250 mV at TA = −40°C to +125°C.
Each channel operates independently with 150 fA typical input bias current, 500 µV max input offset voltage, and 100 dB PSRR across 2.4 V–40 V supply range-enabling precise threshold detection in noisy 24 V/40 V industrial bus environments without external level-shifting or conditioning.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.4 V to 40 V - supports direct connection to 24 V DC industrial rails and 36 V automotive batteries without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 5 µA per channel - enables always-on monitoring in battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems with multi-year runtime. |
| Propagation Delay | 420 ns (TYP) at 100 mV overdrive - provides fast response for overcurrent protection and PWM edge detection in motor gate drivers. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±0.5 mV (TYP), ±4 mV (MAX over temp) - ensures accurate zero-crossing and reference comparison in precision sensor interfaces. |
| Rail-to-Rail Input Range | (V−) − 0.2 V to (V+) + 0.2 V - accepts signals beyond supply rails for direct interfacing with unbuffered transducers and shunt amplifiers. |
| Power-On Reset Threshold | 2.4 V with 200 µs hold time - guarantees known low-state output during brown-in/brown-out, preventing spurious actuation in PLC I/O modules. |
| ESD Rating | ±2 kV HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 3 system-level robustness requirements for factory floor equipment. |
Pinout & Package
TLV1812DSGR is housed in an 8-pin WSON (DSG) package measuring 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm with exposed thermal pad on underside, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and thermal dissipation in compact industrial controllers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1 | Comparator 1 output | Push-pull stage capable of sourcing/sinking ≥4 mA; connects directly to MOSFET gate or LED anode without pull-up. |
| IN1− | Inverting input, Channel 1 | High-impedance node (150 fA bias) accepting signals down to (V−) − 0.2 V; requires no external clamping below 200 mV overdrive. |
| IN1+ | Non-inverting input, Channel 1 | Matches IN1− in common-mode range and offset; used for reference-based threshold detection in analog front-ends. |
| V− | Negative supply | Reference return for both comparators and thermal pad; exposed pad must be soldered directly to V− plane for thermal compliance. |
| IN2+ | Non-inverting input, Channel 2 | Independent input for second sensing path; enables dual-threshold logic (e.g., window comparator with external resistors). |
| IN2− | Inverting input, Channel 2 | Paired with IN2+ for second comparator; supports differential signal monitoring or redundant fault detection. |
| OUT2 | Comparator 2 output | Functionally identical to OUT1; allows simultaneous monitoring of two independent analog conditions. |
| V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.4 V–40 V; powers internal bias, POR, and output stages; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Push-pull output | Eliminates need for external pull-up resistors in 24 V control logic, reducing BOM count and board space in DIN-rail I/O modules. |
| Power-On Reset (POR) | Guarantees OUT1/OUT2 remain low until V+ ≥ 2.4 V and stabilizes, preventing false triggering during cold start of HVAC or pump controllers. |
| Rail-to-rail input | Supports direct interface with ±10 V industrial sensors and 0–40 V battery monitors without attenuation or level-shifting circuitry. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 5 µA per channel enables continuous operation in battery-powered condition monitoring nodes with >10-year shelf life. |
| 40 V absolute max rating | Withstands 42 V transient surges per JEDEC JESD78, suitable for 36 V nominal systems with ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a immunity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV1822DSGR | Open-drain output instead of push-pull; same supply range, quiescent current, and propagation delay. | Requires external pull-up for logic-high; supports wired-OR and level translation up to 40 V. | Select when interfacing with mixed-voltage systems or implementing fault-bus arbitration. |
| LM393DR | Higher 1 mA quiescent current, 1.5 µs propagation delay, 36 V max supply, no POR or rail-to-rail input. | Limited to lower-speed, non-safety-critical 5 V/12 V applications; lacks deterministic startup behavior. | Choose only for cost-sensitive legacy designs where speed, power, and reliability margins are relaxed. |
Compared with TLV1822DSGR, TLV1812DSGR eliminates external pull-ups and simplifies layout but cannot perform wired-OR; versus LM393DR, it delivers 200× lower power, 4× faster response, and guaranteed safe startup-critical for modern industrial safety architectures.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage the TLV1812DSGR can withstand?
The TLV1812DSGR has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of 42 V between V+ and V− pins. It operates continuously across 2.4 V to 40 V, making it suitable for 36 V nominal industrial systems and compatible with ISO 7637-2 load-dump transients. Exceeding 42 V risks permanent damage per datasheet Section 5.1.
Does the TLV1812DSGR require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
No. The TLV1812DSGR features push-pull outputs capable of both sourcing and sinking current, eliminating the need for external pull-up resistors. Each output can drive LEDs, MOSFET gates, or logic inputs directly-reducing component count and PCB area in space-constrained designs such as DIN-rail mounted I/O modules.
How does the Power-On Reset (POR) function behave in the TLV1812DSGR?
The TLV1812DSGR's POR circuit holds both OUT1 and OUT2 low for up to 200 µs after V+ crosses 2.4 V during power-up, and reactivates if V+ drops below 2.4 V. This ensures deterministic startup in programmable logic controllers and motor drives, preventing false triggering of downstream actuators during brown-in or brown-out events.
Can the TLV1812DSGR interface directly with 0–10 V industrial sensors?
Yes. Its rail-to-rail input range extends from (V−) − 0.2 V to (V+) + 0.2 V, allowing direct connection to 0–10 V sensors when powered from a 12 V supply. No external level-shifting or attenuation is needed-enabling simplified analog front-end design in PLC analog input cards and process controllers.
What thermal management is required for the TLV1812DSGR in continuous operation?
The TLV1812DSGR in DSG (WSON) package requires the exposed thermal pad to be soldered directly to the V− copper plane. With RθJA = 79.9°C/W and max junction temperature of 150°C, sustained operation at 40 V/5 µA per channel generates minimal self-heating (<1 mW), but proper pad connection ensures reliability under ambient temperatures up to +125°C per datasheet Section 5.5.
