Product details
Overview
TSM922CSA+T from Silicon Laboratories is a dual micropower analog comparator with ultra-low 4μA max supply current over temperature, push-pull TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs, and operation from single +2.5V to +11V or dual ±1.25V to ±5.5V supplies. It features rail-to-rail input voltage range (V− to V+ − 1.3V), 12μs propagation delay at 10mV overdrive, and no internal reference - used in battery-powered threshold detection and window comparator circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TSM922CSA+T datasheet, TSM922CSA+T pinout, TSM922CSA+T application, or TSM922CSA+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package mapping, functional role in low-power sensing systems, and validated alternative options for dual-comparator designs requiring sub-4μA quiescent current and dual-supply flexibility.
Technical Context
The TSM922CSA+T implements two independent comparators sharing common power rails, each with input stages optimized for operation down to 2.5V single supply or ±1.25V dual supply. Its input common-mode range extends from V− to V+ − 1.3V, enabling direct interface with sensors referenced to negative rails or ground.
Output stages are push-pull, capable of sourcing/sinking ≥10mA while maintaining crowbar-current-free switching and TTL/CMOS logic compatibility. Unlike TSM921/TSM923, it lacks an internal reference and HYST pin - eliminating on-chip hysteresis control but reducing component count where external reference or fixed thresholds apply.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2.5V to +11V (single) or ±1.25V to ±5.5V (dual) - supports both 3V/5V embedded systems and bipolar signal conditioning |
| Max Supply Current | 4μA over −40°C to +85°C - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring nodes |
| Propagation Delay | 12μs at 10mV overdrive - sufficient for slow-varying DC thresholds (e.g., battery voltage monitoring) |
| Input Common-Mode Range | V− to V+ − 1.3V - allows direct sensing of signals near negative rail without level-shifting circuitry |
| Output Drive | Sinks/sources ≥10mA (TTL/CMOS compatible) - directly drives LEDs, logic inputs, or small MOSFET gates without buffer stages |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±10mV - sets minimum detectable differential voltage in precision threshold applications |
| Input Leakage Current | ±0.01nA to ±5nA - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., thermistors, photodiodes) |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, JEDEC MS-012 compliant, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GND | Ground reference | Connect to V− for single-supply operation; output swings from V+ to GND |
| 2 OUTA | Comparator A output | Push-pull stage sinks/sources current; TTL/CMOS-compatible; no external pull-up required |
| 3 V− | Negative supply | Set to GND for single supply; set to negative voltage for dual-supply operation |
| 4 INA− | Comparator A inverting input | Accepts signals from V− to V+ − 1.3V; ≤5nA leakage preserves high-Z node integrity |
| 5 INA+ | Comparator A noninverting input | Same voltage range and leakage as INA−; differential pair defines trip point |
| 6 INB− | Comparator B inverting input | Independent input channel; identical specs to INA−; enables dual-threshold or window detection |
| 7 INB+ | Comparator B noninverting input | Independent input channel; identical specs to INA+; supports separate reference or sensor paths |
| 8 V+ | Positive supply | Accepts +2.5V to +11V; powers both comparators and output stages |
Key Features

| Ultra-low quiescent current | 4μA max over full −40°C to +85°C range - eliminates thermal drift concerns in sealed battery enclosures |
| Rail-to-rail input capability | V− to V+ − 1.3V input range - enables direct connection to transducers operating near supply rails |
| Crowbar-current-free switching | No shoot-through current during output transitions - prevents supply glitches in noise-sensitive mixed-signal systems |
| Push-pull output architecture | Active drive high/low without external resistors - reduces BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained modules |
| Dual-supply operational flexibility | ±1.25V to ±5.5V support - accommodates legacy industrial analog front-ends using bipolar op-amp rails |
Applications
| Threshold Detector | Window Comparator |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring battery voltage to trigger low-battery warning before system shutdown. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual comparator compares sensed voltage against upper and lower thresholds generated by resistor dividers. Use Value: Eliminates need for microcontroller ADC polling; achieves <4μA total system standby current with discrete threshold logic. | Use Scenario: Validating that a 5V power rail remains within 4.5V–5.5V tolerance band. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One comparator detects undervoltage (OUTA active-low), the other detects overvoltage (OUTB active-low). Use Value: Generates independent fault flags with no shared reference - avoids single-point failure in safety-critical power supervision. |
| Level Translator | Oscillator Circuit |
Use Scenario: Converting ±5V analog sensor output to 0–5V TTL logic for MCU input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Comparator acts as zero-crossing detector with hysteresis to reject noise on bipolar input. Use Value: Replaces discrete transistor level shifters; maintains timing integrity with 12μs delay and no duty-cycle distortion. | Use Scenario: Building relaxation oscillator for LED blink timing or clock generation in ultra-low-power nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Comparator charges/discharges capacitor via feedback network to generate square wave. Use Value: Achieves stable oscillation at ~1Hz with <4μA supply - outperforms RC timers with higher temperature stability and lower drift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX922ESA+ | Pin-compatible dual comparator; same 4μA max supply current, 12μs delay, and SOIC-8 package; identical input range and output drive. | No internal reference or HYST pin - matches TSM922CSA+T's feature set exactly; drop-in replacement for legacy MAX922 designs. | Select when migrating from Maxim parts or requiring second-source availability with identical electrical behavior. |
| LM393DR | Higher 100μA supply current; open-collector outputs require pull-up resistors; wider offset (±2mV to ±25mV); no dual-supply rail-to-rail input. | Not suitable for sub-5μA battery systems; requires external components for logic-level compatibility; limited to single-supply use below 36V. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-battery applications where 100μA quiescent current is acceptable and open-collector flexibility is needed. |
Compared with MAX922ESA+, TSM922CSA+T offers identical performance and footprint but with Silicon Labs' extended lifecycle support and RoHS-compliant lead-free packaging; versus LM393DR, it delivers 25× lower supply current, push-pull outputs, and true dual-supply operation - making it essential for energy-harvesting and long-life portable instrumentation.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for TSM922CSA+T?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for TSM922CSA+T is +12V between V+ and V−, or +12V between V+ and GND in single-supply mode. Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range remains +2.5V to +11V for reliable performance across temperature. Always observe derating curves in the datasheet when operating near limits.
Does TSM922CSA+T include an internal voltage reference?
No, TSM922CSA+T does not include an internal voltage reference. Unlike TSM921, TSM923, and TSM924, the TSM922 variant omits the 1.182V ±1% REF pin and associated reference circuitry. External references or resistor-divider thresholds must be used for precise comparison points in TSM922CSA+T designs.
Can TSM922CSA+T operate from dual ±3V supplies?
Yes, TSM922CSA+T supports dual-supply operation from ±1.25V to ±5.5V, including ±3V. In this configuration, V+ = +3V and V− = −3V, giving a total supply span of 6V. The input common-mode range extends from −3V to +1.7V (V+ − 1.3V), and outputs swing fully from −3V to +3V - enabling direct interfacing with bipolar analog signals.
What is the output type of TSM922CSA+T and how does it differ from open-collector comparators?
TSM922CSA+T features push-pull (totem-pole) outputs, meaning each output actively drives high or low without requiring external pull-up resistors. This contrasts with open-collector comparators like LM393, which only sink current and need external pull-ups. Push-pull operation reduces component count, improves rise/fall times, and ensures defined logic levels under all load conditions - critical for driving CMOS inputs directly.
Is TSM922CSA+T pin-compatible with the MAX922 series?
Yes, TSM922CSA+T is electrically and form-factor identical to the MAX922 family, including pinout, package (SOIC-8), supply ranges, propagation delay, and output drive. Silicon Labs explicitly states this compatibility in the datasheet. Designers can substitute TSM922CSA+T for MAX922 in existing layouts without modifications - preserving board design integrity while gaining access to Silicon Labs' long-term supply assurance.
