Frequently Asked Questions
What is the supply voltage range and supply current of the TLC372ID?
The TLC372ID operates from a single supply voltage of 2V to 16V or a dual supply of ±1V to ±8V. Its maximum supply current is 200µA per comparator, making it one of the most power-efficient dual comparators suitable for battery-operated applications.
What are the typical applications for the TLC372ID comparator?
The TLC372ID is commonly used in battery-powered devices, smoke detectors, level detection circuits, window comparators, zero-crossing detectors, and IoT sensor interfaces. Its micropower consumption and wide input common-mode range make it ideal for portable and always-on monitoring applications across consumer, industrial, and automotive markets.
What package does the TLC372ID come in, and what is the pin count?
The TLC372ID comes in an 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, denoted by the 'D' suffix. This surface-mount package offers a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained PCB designs and is compatible with standard reflow soldering processes.
Is the TLC372ID a drop-in replacement for the LM393?
The TLC372ID is functionally similar to the LM393 dual comparator and is often used as a direct replacement in many designs. However, the TLC372ID features LinCMOS technology with lower supply current (200µA vs. 1.3mA for LM393), wider input common-mode range, and push-pull outputs. Always verify supply voltage and output stage compatibility before substituting.
