LM393

Texas Instruments · Dual differential comparator · SOIC-8

Dual differential comparator with open-collector outputs in a SOIC-8 package. Two independent comparators run from a single 2-36 V supply (or split ±1 to ±18 V), with a common-mode input range that includes ground. The open-collector outputs need a pull-up resistor and can wire-OR or level-shift. The default choice for threshold detection, zero-cross sensing, and simple hysteresis (Schmitt) triggers.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1OUT output Comparator 1 open-collector output. Requires an external pull-up resistor to VCC (typical 1 kΩ to 100 kΩ). Sinks up to 16 mA typical.
2 1IN- input Comparator 1 inverting analog input. Input common-mode range includes ground; V(IN) from 0 V to VCC−1.5 V.
3 1IN+ input Comparator 1 non-inverting analog input. Input common-mode range includes ground; V(IN) from 0 V to VCC−1.5 V.
4 GND power_in Ground / negative supply reference (V-). Tie to 0 V for single-supply operation, or to the negative rail for split-supply operation.
5 2IN+ input Comparator 2 non-inverting analog input. Input common-mode range includes ground; V(IN) from 0 V to VCC−1.5 V.
6 2IN- input Comparator 2 inverting analog input. Input common-mode range includes ground; V(IN) from 0 V to VCC−1.5 V.
7 2OUT output Comparator 2 open-collector output. Requires an external pull-up resistor to VCC (typical 1 kΩ to 100 kΩ). Sinks up to 16 mA typical.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply (V+). Single-supply: 2 V to 36 V. Split-supply: ±1 V to ±18 V. Bypass with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND close to the pin.
