Product details
Overview
TSM982CSA+T from Silicon Laboratories is a dual-channel, micropower analog comparator with integrated 1.182V ±2% reference and adjustable hysteresis, operating from single +2.5V to +11V or dual ±1.25V to ±5.5V supplies, consuming ≤6μA max over temperature, and featuring open-drain outputs for wired-OR logic in battery-powered threshold detection systems.
For engineers reviewing the TSM982CSA+T datasheet, TSM982CSA+T pinout, TSM982CSA+T application, or TSM982CSA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low quiescent current (≤6μA), internal reference accuracy (±2% over –40°C to +85°C), 12μs propagation delay at 10mV overdrive, input common-mode range extending to V–, and compatibility with MAX982 as an alternate source.
Technical Context
The TSM982CSA+T implements two independent comparators sharing a single internal 1.182V reference and a dedicated HYST pin for externally programmable hysteresis via two resistors. Its open-drain output stage sinks current to V–, not GND, distinguishing it from TSM971/TSM984 which feature separate GND pins.
It supports rail-to-rail input operation down to V– and within 1.3V of V+, enabling direct sensing near ground in single-supply systems. The reference is buffered and capable of sourcing up to 25μA or sinking 15μA, with voltage noise of 100μVRMS (100Hz–100kHz), and is referenced strictly to V–.
Key Specifications

| 3 | IN+ | Comparator A noninverting input; accepts voltages from V– to (V+ – 1.3V); high-impedance (±0.01nA leakage). |
| 4 | IN– | Comparator A inverting input; identical electrical specs to IN+; used for differential or single-ended threshold comparison. |
| 5 | HYST | Hysteresis control input; accepts 0V to (REF – 50mV); sets hysteresis band up to 100mV via external resistor divider. |
| 6 | REF | 1.182V reference output referenced to V–; sources/sinks up to 25μA/15μA; must not be bypassed. |

Use Scenario: Building a relaxation oscillator for LED blink timing in a solar-charged garden light. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One comparator acts as threshold detector charging/discharging a capacitor through REF and HYST-controlled hysteresis band. Use Value: Generates stable frequency with <±2% variation over temperature using only TSM982CSA+T, one cap, and two resistors-no crystal or RC timer IC needed. |
Use Scenario: Low-power wake-up controller in a wireless sensor node that activates MCU only when ambient light exceeds 10 lux. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single comparator channel monitors photodiode amplifier output against REF-derived threshold; second channel reserved for fault detection. Use Value: Draws just 6μA continuously while providing deterministic wake-up latency (<15μs), extending shelf life beyond 5 years on CR2032. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual comparator with reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX982ESA+ | Pin-compatible, same 1.182V ±2% reference, identical HYST functionality, but higher max supply current (8μA vs. 6μA). | Suitable for legacy designs migrating from Maxim; no PCB changes required if footprint and thermal constraints match. | Select MAX982ESA+ only when existing design validation data exists for that part; otherwise prefer TSM982CSA+T for lower current draw. |
| TSM973CSA+T | Same package and pinout, but features ±1% reference (tighter tolerance) and no HYST pin-hysteresis requires external feedback. | Better for precision thresholding where reference accuracy dominates over hysteresis flexibility; not suitable for HYST-based designs. | Choose TSM973CSA+T when reference stability is critical and hysteresis can be implemented externally; avoid if HYST pin usage is required. |
Compared with MAX982ESA+, TSM982CSA+T delivers 25% lower quiescent current without sacrificing functionality; compared with TSM973CSA+T, it trades ±1% reference accuracy for integrated hysteresis control-enabling simpler, more robust noise immunity in cost-sensitive battery systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TSM982CSA+T?
The TSM982CSA+T is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C. This extended industrial temperature range is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Electrical Characteristics sections of the official datasheet, ensuring reliable performance in outdoor sensors, automotive body electronics, and factory automation equipment where ambient temperatures fluctuate widely. The TSM982CSA+T maintains its 6μA max supply current and 1.182V ±2% reference accuracy across this full range.
Does the TSM982CSA+T have a GND pin for single-supply operation?
No, the TSM982CSA+T does not have a dedicated GND pin. Pin 1 is labeled GND in the pin function table, but its role is to serve as the substrate ground and internal bias reference-not as an output return path. All outputs sink to V– (Pin 2), and for single-supply use, V– must be connected to system ground. This differs from TSM971/TSM984, which include separate GND and V– pins allowing true dual-supply operation.
Can the internal reference of the TSM982CSA+T be used to drive external circuitry?
Yes, the REF pin (Pin 6) of the TSM982CSA+T can source up to 25μA and sink up to 15μA while maintaining its 1.182V ±2% accuracy over temperature. It is explicitly designed to drive external resistor dividers for threshold setting or hysteresis programming. However, the datasheet cautions against bypassing REF with capacitors, as this may destabilize the reference and increase noise-external loading must remain within the specified current limits.
How is hysteresis implemented on the TSM982CSA+T?
Hysteresis on the TSM982CSA+T is implemented via the HYST pin (Pin 5), which accepts a voltage from REF down to (REF – 50mV). Connecting two external resistors between REF, HYST, and V– creates a feedback network that shifts the comparator's trip points. The resulting hysteresis band is directly proportional to the voltage difference across REF and HYST, enabling precise, resistor-programmable hysteresis up to 100mV without requiring additional op-amps or complex feedback paths.
Is the TSM982CSA+T pin-compatible with the MAX982?
Yes, the TSM982CSA+T is electrically and form-factor identical to the MAX982, as explicitly stated in the device description: "The TSM971/972/973/982/984 family [...] is electrically and form-factor identical to the MAX971/972/973/982/984 family." Both are offered in 8-pin SOIC and MSOP packages with identical pinouts, making TSM982CSA+T a drop-in replacement for MAX982 in existing designs, subject to qualification per application requirements.
