General Description

The EL5281C comparator is designed for operation in single supply

For single supplies, the inputs can operate from 0.1V below ground for

use in ground-sensing applications.

The output side of the comparator can be supplied from a single sup-

ply of 2.7V to 5V. The rail-to-rail output swing enables direct

connection of the comparator to both CMOS and TTL logic circuits.

The latch input of the EL5281C can be used to hold the comparator

output value by applying a low logic level to the pin. The EL5281C

features two separate comparators.

The EL5281C is available in the 14-pin SO package and is specified

for operation over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. Also

available are a single (EL5181C) and quad versions (EL5481C and

EL5482C).
