LM339

Texas Instruments · Quad differential comparator · SOIC-14

Four independent voltage comparators in one SOIC-14, the quad sibling of the dual LM393. Each compares its two inputs and drives an open-collector output low when the minus input is above the plus input, so outputs wire-OR together and level-shift with a single pull-up resistor. The inputs work down to the negative rail, and it runs from a single 2 to 36 V supply or a split supply, which makes it easy to build level detectors, zero-crossing detectors, oscillators, and simple ADCs. Outputs need an external pull-up to the logic rail.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1OUT output Open-collector output of comparator 1. Requires an external pull-up resistor to VCC. Sink current up to 20 mA.
2 2OUT output Open-collector output of comparator 2. Requires external pull-up to VCC.
3 VCC power_in Positive supply. 2 V to 36 V (LM339) or up to 38 V (LM339B). Single-supply operation supported.
4 2IN- input Inverting (negative) input of comparator 2. Common-mode range includes ground.
5 2IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of comparator 2. Common-mode range includes ground.
6 1IN- input Inverting (negative) input of comparator 1. Common-mode range includes ground.
7 1IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of comparator 1. Common-mode range includes ground.
8 3IN- input Inverting (negative) input of comparator 3. Common-mode range includes ground.
9 3IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of comparator 3. Common-mode range includes ground.
10 4IN- input Inverting (negative) input of comparator 4. Common-mode range includes ground.
11 4IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of comparator 4. Common-mode range includes ground.
12 GND power_in Negative supply / ground reference. Tied to system ground in single-supply operation.
13 4OUT output Open-collector output of comparator 4. Requires external pull-up to VCC.
14 3OUT output Open-collector output of comparator 3. Requires external pull-up to VCC.
