The TLV350x family of push-pull output comparators feature a fast 4.5-ns propagation delay and operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Beyond-the-rails input common-mode range makes it an ideal choice for low-voltage applications. The rail-to-rail output directly drives either CMOS or TTL logic.

Microsize packages provide options for portable and space-restricted applications. The single (TLV3501) is available in 6-pin SOT-23 and 8-pin SO packages. The dual (TLV3502) comes in the 8-pin SOT-23 and 8-pin SO packages.
