8.3 Feature Description

The comparator consists of a PNP Darlington pair input, allowing the device to operate with very high gain and fast response with minimal input bias current. The input Darlington pair creates a limit on the input common-mode voltage capability, allowing the comparator to accurately function from ground to (VCC – 1.5 V) differential input. Allow for (VCC – 2 V) at cold temperature.

The output consists of an open-collector NPN (pulldown or low-side) transistor. The output NPN sinks current when the negative input voltage is higher than the positive input voltage and the offset voltage. The VOL is resistive and scales with the output current. See the Section 7 section for VOL values with respect to the output current.
