LMV393M8-13

Overview

The LMV393M8-13 is a dual general-purpose low-voltage comparator manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and supports an ambient operating temperature from -40°C to +125°C. The device features open-collector outputs, a typical supply current of 40 µA per comparator, and input common-mode voltage that includes ground. It is housed in an MSOP-8 package with 2,500 units per tape and reel.

Feature Summary

• Dual-channel architecture designed for low-voltage applications
• Open-collector output structure providing maximum flexibility
• Input common-mode voltage range extends to include ground potential

Applications

• Mobile communications systems
• Battery powered devices
• Notebooks and PDAs
• General purpose portable devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging quantity and environmental compliance standards. Confirm the manufacturer source aligns with authorized distribution channels to ensure product authenticity. Check datasheet revisions for any updates to electrical characteristics or pin assignments before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require an MSOP-8 footprint while maintaining dual comparator functionality. Ensure the application requires open-collector outputs compatible with external pull-up resistors. Verify that the system supply voltage remains within the 2.7 V to 5.5 V operational limits for optimal performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LMV331/LMV393 series, which are low-voltage counterparts to industry-standard comparators. The series utilizes a BiCMOS process to reduce cost and space while consuming lower supply current than previous generations. The M8 suffix specifically denotes the MSOP-8 surface-mount package variant.

Replacement Considerations

LMV393S-13: Identical functional specifications but packaged in SO-8 instead of MSOP-8.
