LTC1443/LTC1444/LTC1445 Ultralow Power Quad Comparators with Reference FeaTuresDescripTion n Ultralow Quiescent Current: 8.5µA Max The LTC®1443/LTC1444/LTC1445 are ultralow power quad n Reference Output Drives 0.01µF Capacitor comparators with a built-in reference. The comparators n Adjustable Hysteresis (LTC1444/LTC1445) feature less than 8.5µA supply current over temperature, n Wide Supply Range an internal reference (1.182V ±1% for LTC1443 or 1.221V Single: 2V to 11V ±1% for LTC1444/LTC1445), programmable hysteresis Dual: ±1V to ±5.5V (LTC1444/LTC1445) and TTL/CMOS output (LTC1443/ n Input Voltage Range Includes the Negative Supply LTC1445) that sinks and sources current (open-drain n TTL/CMOS Compatible Outputs output for LTC1444). The reference output can drive a n Propagation Delay: 12µs (Typ) (10mV Overdrive) bypass capacitor of up to 0.01µF without oscillation. n No Crowbar Current The comparators operate from a single 2V to 11V supply n 40mA Continuous Source Current or a dual ±1V to ±5.5V supply (LTC1443). Comparator n Pin Compatible Upgrades for MAX924 (LTC1443) hysteresis is easily programmable using two resistors and n Low Profile (5mm × 4mm × 0.8mm) DFN Package the HYST pin (LTC1444/LTC1445). Each comparator’s input operates from the negative supply to within 1.3V of applicaTions the positive supply. The LTC1443/LTC1445 comparator n output stage can continuously source up to 40mA. By Battery-Powered System Monitoring n eliminating the cross-conducting current that normally Threshold Detectors n happens when the comparator changes logic states, power Window Comparators n supply glitches are eliminated.
