LMV7235M5/NOPB

Overview

The LMV7235M5/NOPB is a single rail-to-rail input comparator from Texas Instruments, housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The device features ultra-low power consumption with a maximum supply current of 95 µA and a typical propagation delay of 62 ns. It offers an open-drain or push-pull output configuration, ensuring compatibility with various logic families. Key electrical specifications include a maximum input offset voltage of 8 mV at 5 V and a maximum input bias current of 0.4 µA.

Feature Summary

• Rail-to-rail input capability allows for full common-mode voltage range utilization.
• Ultra-low power consumption suitable for battery-operated applications.
• Flexible output stage supports both open-drain and push-pull configurations.

Applications

• Portable consumer electronics requiring low power dissipation
• Battery-powered measurement instruments
• Threshold detection circuits in communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix M5 corresponds to the SOT-23-5 tape and reel packaging format as defined by Texas Instruments documentation. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer datasheets prior to integration. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact pinout and electrical characteristics required for the target design to avoid functional mismatches.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel comparator with rail-to-rail inputs is required in a compact SOT-23 footprint. It is appropriate for designs prioritizing minimal quiescent current over high-speed performance. Consider the trade-off between the 62 ns propagation delay and the 95 µA supply current against faster but higher-power alternatives.

Part Context

This device belongs to the LMV723x series of low-voltage comparators designed for general-purpose applications. It shares architectural similarities with other members of the family but is distinguished by its specific output drive capabilities and package type. The series targets cost-sensitive markets where space constraints and power efficiency are critical design parameters.

Replacement Considerations

LMV7235M7X/NOPB: Offers identical electrical performance in a SC-70-5 package instead of SOT-23-5.
