Product details
Overview
TLV1872DGSR from Texas Instruments is a dual 40V high-speed comparator with independent input and output supply rails, 65ns propagation delay, rail-to-rail inputs, and push-pull outputs. It operates from ±1.35V to ±20V (2.7V–40V total), features Power-On Reset (POR), and draws only 75µA per channel - enabling bipolar zero-cross detection in Class D amplifiers and motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the TLV1872DGSR datasheet, TLV1872DGSR pinout, TLV1872DGSR application, or TLV1872DGSR equivalent, this page delivers verified functional context, validated pin-level design meaning, confirmed thermal and switching specs, and real-world level-translation use cases - all grounded in TI's SNOSDI4A revision December 2024 production data.
Technical Context
The TLV1872DGSR implements a dual-channel architecture with fully isolated input-stage supplies (VCCI/VEEI) and output-stage supplies (VCCO/VEEO), enabling true floating push-pull operation. Its rail-to-rail input stage accepts signals up to 200mV beyond supply rails, while internal POR holds outputs in high-impedance state until both input and output supplies exceed 1.9V.
Propagation delay symmetry (TPD-LH = TPD-HL = 65ns typ. at 100mV overdrive) and matched rise/fall times (5ns typ.) stem from its balanced output driver topology. The device supports asymmetric supply configurations - e.g., VCCI = +15V / VEEI = –15V for bipolar sensing, while VCCO = +3.3V / VEEO = GND drives 3.3V logic - without external level shifters or pull-ups.
Key Specifications

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM393BDR | Single-channel, open-drain output, no separate output supplies, 1.3µs propagation delay | Lacks level translation capability; requires external pull-up; unsuitable for symmetric zero-cross timing | Choose LM393BDR only for cost-sensitive, non-timing-critical DC threshold detection with 3.3V/5V logic. |
| TLV1802QDGSRQ1 | Automotive-grade (AEC-Q100), same pinout and function, but rated for –40°C to +150°C junction | Validated for under-hood automotive use; includes enhanced ESD (±4kV HBM) and longer qualification testing | Choose TLV1802QDGSRQ1 when operating ambient exceeds +125°C or automotive qualification is mandatory. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between VCCI and VEEI for TLV1872DGSR?
The TLV1872DGSR supports an input supply range of 2.7V to 40V (VCCI – VEEI), with absolute maximum rating of 42V. Operation beyond 40V is outside recommended conditions and may impact reliability or parametric performance. For sustained operation, maintain VCCI – VEEI ≤ 40V and ensure VCCO ≤ VCCI and VEEO ≥ VEEI per the supply constraint diagram in section 6.4.1 of SNOSDI4A.
Does TLV1872DGSR support single-supply operation on both input and output stages?
Yes, TLV1872DGSR supports single-supply operation: tie VEEI and VEEO to GND, and set VCCI ≥ VCCO (e.g., VCCI = +12V, VCCO = +3.3V). This configuration enables rail-to-rail input sensing from 0V to +12V while generating 0V–3.3V logic-compatible outputs - ideal for interfacing legacy analog sensors with modern microcontrollers.
How does the Power-On Reset (POR) function in TLV1872DGSR affect system startup behavior?
The TLV1872DGSR POR circuit holds both outputs in high-impedance state for up to 80µs after (VCCI–VEEI) and (VCCO–VEEO) cross 1.9V. This prevents false triggering during power ramp-up. Once both supplies stabilize above threshold, outputs begin responding to inputs with full 65ns propagation delay - ensuring deterministic startup in motor control and audio systems.
Can unused comparator channels in TLV1872DGSR be left floating?
No - unused inputs must not be left floating or tied together. Doing so causes high-frequency oscillation due to internal noise gain. Instead, bias each unused input within the specified common-mode range (VEEI – 0.2V to VCCI + 0.2V) with ≥50mV differential (e.g., IN2+ to GND, IN2– to 1V). This ensures stable quiescent operation and avoids unintended output transitions.
What thermal performance can be expected from TLV1872DGSR in a standard VSSOP-10 PCB layout?
In a standard 2-layer PCB with JEDEC-standard copper pour, TLV1872DGSR exhibits RθJA = 151.4°C/W (DGS package). At 150µA total quiescent current and 30mA transient load, junction temperature rise remains below 15°C above ambient - well within the –40°C to +125°C operating range. For high-power cycling, add thermal vias under the exposed pad per TI's layout guidelines.
