Product details
Overview
TS3704CDT from STMicroelectronics is a micropower quad CMOS voltage comparator with push-pull outputs, 9 μA typical supply current per comparator, 2.7–16 V single-supply operation, 1 pA typical input bias current, and 2 μs typical response time at 5 mV overdrive-used in battery-powered sensor threshold detection and precision level sensing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TS3704CDT datasheet, TS3704CDT pinout, TS3704CDT application, or TS3704CDT equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low quiescent current, rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground, push-pull output eliminating external pull-ups, and compatibility with legacy LM339 layouts in space-constrained industrial monitoring systems.
Technical Context
The TS3704CDT integrates four independent high-impedance CMOS comparators on a single die, each featuring input bias and offset currents ≤1 pA (typ), enabling direct interfacing with high-impedance sources like photodiodes and piezoelectric sensors without signal degradation.
Its push-pull output stage drives logic-level loads directly-no external pull-up resistor required-while maintaining sub-2 μs propagation delay under 5 mV overdrive, matching bipolar LM339 timing performance despite 20× lower power consumption.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 9 μA typ per comparator - enables multi-year operation from coin-cell batteries in portable instrumentation. |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typ - preserves signal integrity when sensing from megaohm-range sources (e.g., pH electrodes). |
| Input Common-Mode Range | 0 V to VCC−1.5 V - supports ground-referenced inputs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Response Time | 2 μs typ at 5 mV overdrive - suitable for fast edge detection in motor commutation or overvoltage latch circuits. |
| Output Type | CMOS push-pull - eliminates need for external pull-up resistors, reducing BOM count and PCB area. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 16 V single supply - interoperable across 3.3 V microcontrollers and 12 V industrial rails. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 5 mV max - ensures reliable switching at small differential thresholds in precision window detectors. |
Pinout & Package
TS3704CDT is supplied in a 14-pin SOIC (SO14) plastic micropackage with standard 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012 compliant, RoHS-compliant and ECOPACK® certified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (Comp A) | Accepts reference or sensed signal for first comparator; supports common-mode down to GND. |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input (Comp A) | Accepts variable input (e.g., sensor output); high impedance minimizes loading. |
| 3 | Output (Comp A) | CMOS push-pull output - sinks or sources up to 4 mA, compatible with TTL/CMOS logic. |
| 4 | Inverting Input (Comp B) | Dedicated input for second comparator; electrically isolated from other channels. |
| 5 | Non-inverting Input (Comp B) | Independent high-Z input for dual-threshold or hysteresis configuration. |
| 6 | Output (Comp B) | Independent logic-level output; no shared drive path with other comparators. |
| 7 | VCC− (GND) | Negative supply terminal - serves as system ground reference for all four comparators. |
| 8 | Output (Comp C) | Third comparator output; fully buffered and decoupled from internal supply nodes. |
| 9 | Non-inverting Input (Comp C) | High-impedance input for third channel; supports rail-to-rail common-mode swing. |
| 10 | Inverting Input (Comp C) | Reference input for third comparator; matched offset and bias with other channels. |
| 11 | Output (Comp D) | Fourth independent output; capable of driving capacitive loads up to 50 pF within spec. |
| 12 | Non-inverting Input (Comp D) | Final comparator input; identical electrical characteristics to pins 1–2 and 4–5. |
| 13 | Inverting Input (Comp D) | Final reference input; maintains 1 pA bias current and 5 mV offset across temperature. |
| 14 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - powers all four comparators; accepts 2.7–16 V with 75–92 dB SVR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 9 μA/comparator enables >10-year battery life in wireless sensor nodes using CR2032 cells. |

Applications
| Battery-Powered Sensor Monitoring | Industrial Threshold Detection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring voltage levels from thermistors, photodiodes, or strain gauges in remote IoT nodes powered by primary lithium cells. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad comparator performs simultaneous low-battery warning, overtemperature flag, light-on/off decision, and fault latching. Use Value: 9 μA total quiescent draw (36 μA for all four channels) extends CR2032 battery life beyond 5 years in sleep-dominated duty cycles. | Use Scenario: Detecting out-of-tolerance conditions in PLC analog input modules (e.g., 4–20 mA loop break, overvoltage, undervoltage, reverse polarity). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Four independent comparators implement redundant safety thresholds with independent hysteresis networks. Use Value: 1 pA input bias avoids measurement error from leakage across high-value divider resistors (≥1 MΩ) used in 24 V industrial sensing. |
| Power Supply Sequencing Control | Motor Commutation Feedback |
Use Scenario: Validating correct ramp-up order of multiple DC/DC rails (e.g., 1.2 V core, 3.3 V I/O, 5 V analog) before enabling downstream logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Each comparator monitors one rail against a precision reference; outputs feed AND gate to enable master enable signal. Use Value: Push-pull outputs drive logic gates directly-no pull-up needed-reducing sequencing board complexity and improving noise immunity. | Use Scenario: Converting back-EMF zero-crossing signals from brushless DC motor windings into digital commutation timing edges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-speed comparator detects rapid voltage transitions with <2 μs propagation delay and minimal jitter. Use Value: 2 μs response at 5 mV overdrive ensures accurate timing even with low-amplitude back-EMF signals at low RPM. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM339DT | Bipolar input stage; 2 mA supply current per comparator; open-collector output requiring pull-up. | Higher power dissipation limits use in energy-harvesting systems; slower response at low overdrive. | Select when legacy compatibility or higher drive strength (>16 mA sink) is required, not for ultra-low-power designs. |
| TLV3704IDR | Lower VCC min (1.8 V); 1 μA supply current; rail-to-rail input/output; smaller SOT-23-14 package. | Supports 1.8 V logic domains and tighter space constraints; lacks extended temperature grade (-55°C to +125°C) of TS3704CDT. | Select for modern ultra-low-voltage systems where -40°C to +125°C operation is not mandatory. |
Compared with LM339DT and TLV3704IDR, TS3704CDT uniquely balances ultra-low 9 μA quiescent current, full -40°C to +125°C operation, and SO14 pinout compatibility-making it optimal for industrial battery-backed monitoring where longevity, temperature resilience, and drop-in layout reuse are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for TS3704CDT?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC+) is 18 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.7 V to 16 V per the datasheet. Operation above 16 V risks exceeding safe junction temperature and violates specified electrical characteristics; sustained use beyond 16 V voids parametric guarantees and may cause irreversible damage.
Does TS3704CDT support dual-supply operation?
Yes - TS3704CDT operates with dual supplies from ±1.35 V to ±8 V. Pin 7 is designated VCC− (negative rail) and pin 14 is VCC+ (positive rail). The input common-mode range extends to within 1.5 V of either rail, enabling symmetric operation in bipolar signal conditioning circuits such as audio level detectors or op-amp saturation monitors.
Can TS3704CDT drive a 10 kΩ load directly?
Yes - its CMOS push-pull output can source or sink up to 4 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 575 mV and VOH ≥ 1.8 V (at 3 V supply). A 10 kΩ load draws only 300 μA at 3 V, well within specification. Output voltage swing remains rail-aligned, ensuring clean logic-level transitions without external components.
Is TS3704CDT qualified for automotive applications?
No - TS3704CDT is rated for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) but is not AEC-Q100 qualified. ST offers the TS3704IPT variant (same specs, TSSOP14) with automotive qualification under TS3704I part numbering, which includes additional stress testing and PPAP documentation required for automotive ECUs and body control modules.
