Frequently Asked Questions
What is the supply voltage range of the LM293H?
The LM293H operates over a wide supply voltage range of 2V to 36V for single supply operation, or ±1V to ±18V for dual supply operation, making it suitable for both battery-powered and industrial applications.
What type of output does the LM293H have?
The LM293H features open-collector outputs, which allow multiple comparator outputs to be connected together in a wired-OR configuration. Pull-up resistors are required to set the output high state, and the outputs are compatible with TTL, CMOS, and MOS logic.
What are typical applications for the LM293H?
Typical applications include voltage level sensing, zero-crossing detection, oscillator circuits, pulse-width modulation, window comparators, and analog-to-digital conversion. It is commonly used in industrial controls, motor drivers, and power management systems.
What package type is the LM293H available in?
The LM293H is available in a metal can (TO-99 style) hermetic package, which provides superior reliability and thermal performance for demanding industrial and military-grade environments.
