TLV3601DBVR

Comparators Overview

The TLV3601DBVR is a single-channel high-speed analog comparator from Texas Instruments, housed in a SOT-23-5 package. It features a typical propagation delay of 2.5 ns and supports a toggle frequency up to 325 MHz. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 2.4 V to 5.5 V with a quiescent current of approximately 4.9 mA. It provides rail-to-rail input capability extending 200 mV beyond the rails and includes push-pull outputs.

Comparators Feature Summary

• Features fast response time with low overdrive dispersion for precise signal detection
• Supports narrow pulse width detection suitable for high-frequency applications
• Includes rail-to-rail inputs that extend slightly beyond power supply rails

Comparators Applications

• Laser distance meter systems
• Clock and data recovery circuits
• High speed trigger functions in oscilloscopes and logic analyzers
• Distance sensing in LIDAR
• Drone vision processing

Comparators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DBVR' corresponds to the SOT-23-5 package configuration before procurement. Confirm that the component meets the required operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C for your specific application environment. Ensure proper ESD handling protocols are followed during installation due to the sensitivity of the input terminals.

Comparators Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require a small SOT-23-5 footprint combined with high-speed performance. It is appropriate for designs needing direct interfacing with digital controllers via push-pull outputs. Consider alternative family members like the TLV3603 if adjustable hysteresis or latch functionality is required instead of the standard comparator mode found in the TLV3601.

Comparators Part Context

The TLV3601 belongs to the TLV360x family of 325 MHz high-speed comparators designed for time-of-flight architectures. While the TLV3602 offers dual channels and the TLV3603 adds hysteresis control, the TLV3601 focuses on providing a compact, single-channel solution optimized for minimal board space without sacrificing switching speed or input range capabilities.

Comparators Replacement Considerations

The TLV3601DCKR serves as a pin-compatible replacement offering the same electrical characteristics in an SC70-5 package.
