LM311P

Texas Instruments · Comparators · PDIP-8

LM311P from Texas Instruments, in a PDIP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 EMIT OUT tri_state Open-emitter comparator output that sinks current when low and presents high impedance when high; maximum voltage 30V from VCC−.
2 IN+ input Noninverting comparator input with operating voltage range VCC− + 0.5V to VCC+ − 1.5V.
3 IN− input Inverting comparator input with operating voltage range VCC− + 0.5V to VCC+ − 1.5V.
4 VCC− power_in Negative power supply connection; serves as ground reference for single-supply operation or negative rail for dual-supply operation.
5 BALANCE input Offset voltage balance adjustment input pin; leave unconnected or short to adjacent pin if offset balancing not used.
6 BAL/STRB input Strobe control input for output enable; must be current-driven at −3 to −5 mA to enable output (do not connect directly to ground).
7 COL OUT tri_state Open-collector comparator output that sinks current when low and presents high impedance when high; maximum voltage 40V for LM311.
8 VCC+ power_in Positive power supply connection; recommended operating supply range 3.5V to 30V span (VCC+ − VCC−).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: LM311P
  • Footprint: Package_DIP:DIP-8_W7.62mm
  • 3D model: PDIP-8 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: lm311p-etched.step / lm311p-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); lm311p.step / lm311p.glb are the bare package body.
