Frequently Asked Questions
What is the supply voltage range of the LM311M?
The LM311M operates from a single supply of 5V to 36V or a dual supply of ±2.5V to ±18V (nominal ±15V). The maximum negative supply voltage is -18V, providing flexibility for both single and split-rail power designs.
What output type does the LM311M use and how does it interface with logic families?
The LM311M features an open-collector and open-emitter output structure, which allows it to interface directly with TTL, CMOS, RTL, and DTL logic families. An external pull-up resistor is required on the output to set the high logic level.
What are typical applications for the LM311M voltage comparator?
Typical applications include precision level detectors, zero-crossing detectors, window comparators, oscillators, relay drivers, and pulse-width modulation circuits. It is also commonly used in power supply monitoring and motor control systems.
What is the input offset voltage of the LM311M?
The LM311M has a maximum input offset voltage of 7500 µV (7.5 mV) at 25°C, which determines the minimum detectable voltage difference between the two input pins in comparator applications.
What package is the LM311M available in?
The LM311M is available in an SO-8 (Small Outline 8-pin, JESD-30 code R-PDSO-G8) surface-mount package, suitable for compact PCB designs requiring reliable voltage comparison functionality.
