LM331AN

Texas Instruments · V/F And F/V Converters · PDIP-8

LM331AN 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 IOUT output Current output of the switched current source, which supplies i = 1.90 V/RS to the timing network and is specified at 116 to 156 µA for LM331AN at RS = 14 kΩ with pin 1 at 0 V (136 µA typical).
2 IREF input Reference current input where the internal band-gap regulates the pin voltage to about 1.9 V (1.7 to 2.08 V for LM331) and the set resistor RS defines the current, with an operating range of 10 to 500 µA.
3 FOUT output Frequency output that is an open-collector output requiring a pullup resistor, with a saturation voltage of 0.5 V maximum at 5 mA and an OFF leakage of 1 µA maximum.
4 GND power_in Ground reference for the device; all voltages are measured with respect to GND = 0 V.
5 RC input R-C filter input connected to the external RtCt timing network, where the timer threshold is 0.63 to 0.7 × VS (0.667 × VS typical) and the reset saturation voltage is 0.5 V maximum at 5 mA.
6 THRESH input Threshold input to the input comparator, which compares it against COMPIN (pin 7), with a common-mode range of −0.2 V to VCC − 2 V and offset voltage of ±10 mV maximum for LM331 (±14 mV over temperature).
7 COMPIN input Comparator input for the signal voltage VIN, which the input comparator compares against THRESH (pin 6), with a bias current of −300 nA maximum and an offset current of ±100 nA maximum.
8 VS power_in Supply voltage, specified over 4 V to 40 V with an absolute maximum of 40 V.
