Product details
Overview
TLV3691IDPFT from Texas Instruments is a nanopower rail-to-rail input comparator with push-pull output, operating from 0.9 V to 6.5 V supply and consuming only 75 nA typical quiescent current at 25°C. It features ±3 mV input offset voltage, 17 mV internal hysteresis, and 24 µs propagation delay at 6.5 V with 100 mV overdrive - enabling ultra-low-power voltage monitoring in battery-critical systems like portable medical devices and industrial sensors.
For engineers reviewing the TLV3691IDPFT datasheet, TLV3691IDPFT pinout, TLV3691IDPFT application, or TLV3691IDPFT equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1-mm × 1-mm X2SON-6 package, operation down to 0.9 V, rail-to-rail inputs extending 100 mV beyond supply rails, and guaranteed performance across –40°C to 125°C for industrial-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The TLV3691IDPFT implements a fully differential nanopower input stage with ESD-protected rail-to-rail common-mode range (V– – 0.1 V to V+ + 0.1 V), enabling direct sensing of signals outside supply boundaries without external level-shifting. Its push-pull output eliminates external pull-up resistors and supports drive into capacitive loads up to 15 pF while maintaining specified 24–45 µs propagation delay across supply and temperature.
Internal 17 mV hysteresis is fixed and non-adjustable, reducing susceptibility to noise in low-slew-rate applications such as battery voltage threshold detection. The device operates in a single functional mode with no enable/disable control, entering active operation whenever VCC exceeds 0.9 V and remaining functional up to 6.5 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 0.9 V to 6.5 V - enables direct operation from single-cell Li-ion (2.5–4.2 V), coin cell (1.5 V), or low-voltage industrial rails without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 75 nA typ / 200 nA max (–40°C to 125°C) - extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits for >10 years on a CR2032. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±3 mV max at 25°C - ensures accurate trip-point stability for ±1.25 V window detection with <0.1% error at 1.25 V reference. |
| Propagation Delay | 24 µs typ (6.5 V, 100 mV overdrive) - supports response to slow-moving DC thresholds like battery charge state or temperature ramp detection. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | V– – 0.1 V to V+ + 0.1 V - allows direct connection of sensor outputs exceeding supply rails, e.g., thermocouple or op-amp saturated outputs. |
| Output Type | Push-pull - drives high/low actively without external components; sinks 42 mA / sources 35 mA short-circuit current at 6.5 V. |

Pinout & Package
The TLV3691IDPFT is housed in a 1.00 mm × 1.00 mm, 0.37 mm height, 6-pin X2SON (DPF) package with wettable flank leads for automated optical inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN+ | Noninverting input - accepts signals from V– – 0.1 V to V+ + 0.1 V; high-impedance (≤100 pA bias current) for minimal loading. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane; serves as return path for all internal currents. |
| 3 | IN− | Inverting input - differential partner to IN+; identical common-mode range and bias current specification. |
| 4 | OUT | Push-pull output - actively drives high (to VCC − 70 mV min at 0.9 V) or low (to GND + 35 mV max at 0.9 V); no external pull-up required. |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - electrically isolated; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice (no routing). |
| 6 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal circuitry; requires local 100-nF ceramic bypass capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nanopower operation | 75 nA typical supply current enables multi-year battery life in wake-on-threshold applications like smoke detector low-battery alerts. |
| Rail-to-rail input stage | Operates 100 mV beyond both supply rails - eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with overvoltage-capable sensors or op-amps. |
| Fixed internal hysteresis | 17 mV typical hysteresis suppresses chatter in noisy environments (e.g., motor-driven industrial sensors) without requiring external feedback resistors. |
| Push-pull output | Active high/low drive removes dependency on external pull-up resistors - reduces BOM count and avoids power loss in high-impedance pull-up configurations. |
| Wide temperature range | Specified from –40°C to 125°C - supports deployment in uncontrolled environments including automotive engine bays and factory-floor instrumentation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nanopower comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV3604IDBVR | Higher quiescent current (600 nA typ), faster response (1.5 µs), open-drain output requiring pull-up. | Better suited for higher-speed threshold detection where power budget allows >5× higher IQ. | Select TLV3604IDBVR only if propagation delay <2 µs is required and system can accommodate external pull-up and higher standby current. |
| MAX9021AUT+T | Wider supply range (1.6 V to 5.5 V), 1.2 µA IQ, SC70-5 package, no rail-to-rail input beyond rails. | Limited to ≥1.6 V supplies; cannot interface directly with sub-1.6 V sensors or coin-cell systems. | Choose MAX9021AUT+T for cost-sensitive consumer applications where 1.6 V minimum supply and SC70 footprint are acceptable trade-offs. |
Compared with TLV3691IDPFT, TLV3604IDBVR trades nanopower efficiency for speed and MAX9021AUT+T sacrifices rail-to-rail input extension and ultra-low IQ for broader vendor support and lower unit cost - making TLV3691IDPFT uniquely optimal for sub-1-V, battery-constrained industrial sensing.
