TLV3603DCKR-ET

Comparators Overview

The TLV3603DCKR-ET is a single-channel high-speed analog comparator from the Texas Instruments TLV360x family. It features a typical propagation delay of 2.5 ns and supports a toggle frequency up to 325 MHz. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.4 V to 5.5 V, with an input common-mode range extending 200 mV beyond both rails. It utilizes push-pull outputs and includes an adjustable hysteresis control pin (LE/HYS). The extended temperature variant (-ET) ensures reliable operation across a wide ambient temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Comparators Feature Summary

• Features adjustable hysteresis control via an external resistor connected to the LE/HYS pin for noise suppression.
• Supports a latch function that holds the output state when the LE/HYS pin is pulled low.
• Provides rail-to-rail inputs capable of operating 200 mV beyond the power supply rails.

Comparators Applications

• Laser distance meter
• Clock and data recovery
• High speed trigger function in oscilloscope and logic analyzer
• Distance sensing in LIDAR

Comparators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ET' confirms the extended temperature rating of -55°C to +125°C, as standard variants operate from -40°C. Confirm the 'DCKR' designation corresponds to the SC-70-6 package and reel packaging format. Ensure the component matches the official datasheet specifications for the TLV3603E series before integration into designs requiring precise timing or latch functionality.

Comparators Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring fast response times and narrow pulse width detection capabilities. The inclusion of the LE/HYS pin allows for customizable hysteresis levels or latching behavior, distinguishing it from simpler comparator models. Consider the push-pull output stage for direct interfacing with digital controllers without additional pull-up components.

Comparators Part Context

This part belongs to the TLV360x family of 325 MHz high-speed comparators. While the TLV3601 offers a 5-pin configuration and the TLV3602 provides dual channels in an 8-pin package, the TLV3603(E) specifically integrates the LE/HYS pin in a 6-pin SC-70 package. This configuration balances compact size with advanced functional control options not available in the basic single-channel model.
