ALD4303ASBL

Overview

The ALD4303ASBL is a quad precision micropower CMOS voltage comparator with open-drain outputs. It operates on single supplies from 3V to 10V or dual supplies of ±5V. The device features extremely low input bias currents, typically 10pA, and high gain of 100V/mV. Each comparator guarantees a maximum supply current of 22µA and can sink up to 60mA. Operating temperature range for the SBL package is 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Extremely low input bias currents minimize source impedance effects
• High output sinking current capability eliminates need for external buffers
• Open-drain wired-OR outputs compatible with push-pull types
• CMOS, NMOS, and TTL logic compatibility

Applications

• Sensor detection circuits
• MOSFET driver stages
• Multiple limit window comparators
• Power supply voltage monitors
• Photodetector sensor interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number suffix matches the required package type and operating temperature range. Confirm lead-free status if RoHS compliance is mandatory. Ensure the ordering code corresponds to the correct manufacturer specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high input impedance and low standby power are critical. It is suitable for applications requiring direct drive of loads without additional buffering. Verify that the load requirements fall within the guaranteed output sinking current limits for reliable operation.
