Product details
Overview
TSX393IQ2T from STMicroelectronics is a micropower dual CMOS voltage comparator with open-drain outputs, designed for automotive and industrial applications requiring ultra-low supply current (5 µA typ. per comparator), rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground, and high ESD tolerance (4 kV HBM). It operates from 2.7 V to 16 V single supply or ±1.35 V to ±8 V dual supplies, and features 1 pA typical input bias current and 2 µs typical response time at 5 mV overdrive.
For engineers reviewing the TSX393IQ2T datasheet, TSX393IQ2T pinout, TSX393IQ2T application, or TSX393IQ2T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, DFN8 2×2 mm package details, automotive-grade temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C), and validated alternatives for low-power sensing and threshold-detection circuits.
Technical Context
The TSX393IQ2T integrates two independent high-impedance comparators with CMOS input stages, enabling operation across wide supply voltages while maintaining sub-picoampere input bias current and input common-mode range extending to ground. Its open-drain outputs support wired-OR configurations and level-shifting interfaces.
Designed as an enhanced replacement for the TS393, it improves input offset voltage (±5 mV max), ESD robustness (4 kV HBM), and supply current efficiency-especially critical in battery-powered automotive subsystems and precision industrial monitoring where leakage and quiescent power dominate system budget.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 16 V single supply - supports direct connection to 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V rails without regulation. |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typ. - enables high-impedance sensor interfacing (e.g., thermistors, photodiodes) without signal loading. |
| Response Time | 2.0 µs typ. (tPHL) at 5 mV overdrive - suitable for fast threshold detection in motor control feedback or fault monitoring. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±5 mV max at 25 °C - ensures accurate voltage window detection in battery monitoring and power sequencing. |
| ESD Tolerance | 4 kV HBM - meets automotive board-level ESD requirements per ISO 10605 without external protection. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 for under-hood and engine-control module deployment. |
| Output Type | Open-drain - allows flexible pull-up selection, multi-comparator wired-OR logic, and interface to mixed-voltage systems. |
Pinout & Package
TSX393IQ2T is housed in a DFN8 2×2 mm plastic micropackage with exposed pad (no thermal pad connection required), optimized for space-constrained automotive modules and portable industrial sensors. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or notch on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT1) | Comparator 1 output | Open-drain NMOS drain - requires external pull-up; sinks up to 4 mA at <250 mV drop (VCC = 5 V). |
| 2 (IN1−) | Comparator 1 inverting input | High-impedance CMOS node - accepts signals down to ground; supports rail-to-rail common-mode range. |
| 3 (IN1+) | Comparator 1 non-inverting input | Identical impedance and voltage range as IN1−; differential input voltage tolerance ±18 V. |
| 4 (VCC−) | Negative supply / ground reference | Connect to system ground (0 V) in single-supply mode; supports true dual-supply operation. |
| 5 (VCC+) | Positive supply | Accepts 2.7–16 V; internal ESD clamps allow inputs to swing −0.3 V to 16 V regardless of VCC+. |
| 6 (OUT2) | Comparator 2 output | Independent open-drain output - electrically isolated from OUT1; enables dual-threshold logic. |
| 7 (IN2−) | Comparator 2 inverting input | Matched performance to IN1−; no crosstalk between channels per datasheet characterization. |
| 8 (IN2+) | Comparator 2 non-inverting input | Same input structure and biasing as IN1+; supports independent reference or sensor inputs. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual comparator performs undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and overvoltage detection using resistor-divider references. Use Value: 5 µA quiescent current prevents parasitic drain during vehicle sleep mode; open-drain outputs interface directly to microcontroller GPIOs with configurable pull-ups. |
Use Scenario: Detection of excessive winding current in brushed DC motors used in power seats, sunroofs, and HVAC actuators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compares amplified shunt voltage against programmable thresholds to trigger immediate shutdown via MCU interrupt. Use Value: 2 µs response time ensures fault reaction within one PWM cycle; rail-to-rail inputs accommodate low-side shunt placement without level shifters. |
| Industrial Temperature Sensing | Smoke Detector Threshold Logic |
|
Use Scenario: Precision threshold comparison for NTC thermistor networks in PLC I/O modules and motor drive thermal management. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts analog temperature signal into digital alert states (e.g., warning/critical) using dual hysteresis windows. Use Value: 1 pA input bias current avoids self-heating errors in high-resistance thermistor strings; −40 °C to +125 °C rating covers full industrial ambient range. |
Use Scenario: Dual-stage smoke concentration detection in photoelectric smoke alarms compliant with UL 217 and EN 14604. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: First comparator triggers pre-alarm at moderate particle density; second activates full alarm above critical threshold. Use Value: Low ICC enables 10-year battery life in standalone units; 4 kV HBM withstands ESD events during manufacturing and field installation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual micropower comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TS393IDT | Higher ICC (10 µA typ.), wider Vio (±15 mV), lower ESD (2 kV HBM), SO8 only | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification; not rated for automotive under-hood use | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs power/ESD requirements and automotive qualification is unnecessary. |
| TSX3702IST | Push-pull output (not open-drain), same ICC/Vio, MiniSO8 only, no DFN8 option | Eliminates external pull-up resistors but lacks wired-OR capability and level-shifting flexibility | Choose when driving LEDs or logic inputs directly without external components, and board space permits MiniSO8 footprint. |
Compared with TS393IDT and TSX3702IST, TSX393IQ2T uniquely combines DFN8 miniaturization, AEC-Q100 compliance, open-drain versatility, and lowest ICC-making it optimal for next-generation automotive body controllers and compact industrial safety modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage allowed relative to VCC+?
The TSX393IQ2T allows input voltages from −0.3 V to 16 V regardless of VCC+ level, enabled by internal ESD clamp diodes. At VIN > VCC+, leakage remains below 250 nA at 125 °C, ensuring safe overvoltage tolerance without external protection circuitry.
Can TSX393IQ2T drive an LED directly?
No-its open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor to VCC or another rail. To drive an LED, connect the anode to a positive supply and the cathode to OUT1 or OUT2; the comparator will sink current when active. Maximum sink current is 4 mA with <250 mV drop at VCC = 5 V.
Is the DFN8 2×2 package thermally enhanced?
The TSX393IQ2T DFN8 2×2 mm package has no exposed thermal pad; its Rthja is specified at 115 °C/W. For thermal-limited applications, derate power dissipation using junction-to-ambient data and ensure PCB copper area matches the recommended footprint (2.80 × 1.80 mm pad layout per Figure 20).
Does TSX393IQ2T support dual-supply operation with asymmetric rails?
Yes-it operates with dual supplies ranging from ±1.35 V to ±8 V. The absolute maximum ratings specify VCC+ − VCC− ≤ 18 V, and input common-mode range is referenced to VCC−, allowing asymmetric configurations such as +5 V / −3 V if total differential supply stays within limits.
