Product details
Overview
TS7211AILT from STMicroelectronics is a micropower single rail-to-rail input comparator with push-pull output, specified for 2.7V–10V supply operation, 0.5µs response time at 5V, 6µA typical supply current, and SOT23-5 package. It delivers precision low-power comparison in space-constrained battery-powered systems such as portable medical monitors and wireless sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the TS7211AILT datasheet, TS7211AILT pinout, TS7211AILT application, or TS7211AILT equivalent, key selection criteria include input offset voltage (7–18 mV), rail-to-rail common-mode range, push-pull drive capability, ultra-low quiescent current, and industrial temperature support (−40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The TS7211AILT employs BiCMOS process technology to achieve rail-to-rail input stage operation across the full supply range (VCC− −0.3 V to VCC+ +0.3 V) and high open-loop gain (240 dB). Its push-pull output eliminates external pull-up resistors and supports direct interfacing with CMOS/TTL logic.
It features low input bias current (1–600 pA), 6 µV/°C offset drift, and robust ESD protection (2 kV HBM, 200 V MM), enabling reliable operation in noisy, low-current sensing paths such as battery voltage monitoring and analog threshold detection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 10 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, dual-cell alkaline, and 5 V/3.3 V system rails without level-shifting. |
| Supply Current (Typ.) | 6 µA @ 5 V - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in always-on wake-up circuits. |
| Response Time | 0.4–0.5 µs @ 100 mV overdrive - suitable for fast edge detection in power sequencing and fault flag generation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 7–18 mV (A-grade) - ensures accurate thresholding down to ~10 mV resolution in precision voltage monitoring. |
| Common-Mode Range | Rail-to-rail (VCC− −0.3 V to VCC+ +0.3 V) - allows direct sensing of signals near supply rails, e.g., battery end-of-discharge detection. |
| Output Type | Push-pull - drives high/low actively without external pull-up, reducing BOM count and board area in compact designs. |
| ESD Protection | 2 kV HBM / 200 V MM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for handheld and portable equipment interfaces. |
Pinout & Package
TS7211AILT is housed in a 5-pin SOT23-5 (Tiny Package), with 1.9 mm × 2.8 mm footprint and 0.95 mm pitch. The package supports reflow soldering (lead temperature ≤250°C for 10 s) and offers 250°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC− (GND) | Ground reference terminal; must be connected directly to low-impedance system ground plane. |
| 2 | IN+ | Non-inverting input; accepts rail-to-rail common-mode signals up to VCC+ +0.3 V. |
| 3 | IN− | Inverting input; matched to IN+ for low input offset and balanced noise rejection. |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive supply terminal; decoupling capacitor (100 nF ceramic) required within 5 mm. |
| 5 | OUT | Push-pull output; sinks up to 5 mA or sources up to 5 mA, compatible with 1.8 V–5 V logic families. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input stage | Enables direct comparison of signals at VCC− or VCC+, eliminating input voltage translation circuitry. |
| Push-pull output architecture | Removes need for external pull-up resistor, reducing component count and improving rise/fall symmetry (20 ns TR/TF). |
| Ultra-low 6 µA supply current | Extends battery life in always-on comparators used for periodic wake-up or low-duty-cycle sensing. |
| 0.5 µs propagation delay at 5 V | Supports real-time response in power-supply OVP/UVP circuits and fast analog watchdog timers. |
| Industrial temperature range | Guaranteed operation from −40°C to +85°C, validated across all electrical parameters at 2.7 V, 5 V, and 10 V. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower rail-to-rail comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV331M5X/NOPB | Higher supply current (17 µA typ.), open-drain output, no rail-to-rail inputs (CMVR = 0 to VCC−1.2 V) | Requires external pull-up; unsuitable for low-voltage (<1.5 V headroom) sensing near rails | Select only if open-drain interface is required and supply current budget >15 µA |
| MAX9021AXK+T | Lower offset (1.5 mV typ.), but 12 µA ICC and no rail-to-rail input (CMVR = 0.2 V to VCC−0.2 V) | Superior DC accuracy but limited common-mode range; not usable for battery end-of-life detection | Prefer when offset-critical thresholding dominates over rail-sensing capability and power |
Compared with LMV331M5X/NOPB and MAX9021AXK+T, TS7211AILT uniquely combines rail-to-rail input, push-pull output, and sub-10 µA supply current-enabling true single-supply, zero-headroom sensing in ultra-low-power portable systems where both precision and minimal BOM are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable differential input voltage for TS7211AILT?
The absolute maximum differential input voltage is ±0.3 V beyond either supply rail (i.e., VCC− −0.3 V to VCC+ +0.3 V). Exceeding this risks permanent damage to the input stage. This limit applies regardless of common-mode voltage and is enforced by internal ESD diodes.
Can TS7211AILT operate from a 1.8 V supply?
No. TS7211AILT is fully specified only from 2.7 V to 10 V. At 1.8 V, the internal BiCMOS circuitry cannot bias correctly, resulting in undefined output behavior, excessive propagation delay (>10 µs), and potential latch-up. Use ST's TS881 for 1.6 V–5.5 V operation.
Does TS7211AILT require an external hysteresis network?
Not inherently-but recommended for noisy environments. The device has no internal hysteresis; adding 1–10 MΩ feedback from OUT to IN− introduces 1–10 mV of hysteresis. This prevents oscillation during slow-moving input transitions near the threshold, especially in battery voltage monitoring.
Is the SOT23-5 package of TS7211AILT RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes. TS7211AILT is manufactured in STMicroelectronics' RoHS-compliant, lead-free SOT23-5 package (package code L), with matte tin finish and halogen-free molding compound. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow profile requirements and carries the "E3" marking per JEDEC standards.
