DESCRIPTION
♦ Ultra-Low Quiescent Current Over Temperature
TSM921/TSM922: 4μA (total)
TSM923/TSM924: <2.5μA per comparator
♦ Single or Dual Power Supplies:
Single: +2.5V to +11V
Dual: ±1.25V to ±5.5V
♦ Input Voltage Range Includes Negative Supply
♦ 12μs Propagation Delay at 10mV Overdrive
♦ Push-pull TTL/CMOS-Compatible Outputs
♦ Crowbar-Current-Free Switching
♦ Continuous Source Current Capability: 40mA
♦ Internal 1.182V ±1% Reference:
TSM921/TSM923/TSM924
♦ Adjustable Hysteresis: TSM921/TSM923
The TSM921–TSM924 family of single/dual/quad,
low-voltage, micropower analog comparators is
electrically and form-factor identical to the MAX921MAX924 family of analog comparators. Ideal for 3V or
5V single-supply applications, the TSM921–TSM924
family can operate from single +2.5V to +11V
supplies or from ±1.25V to ±5.5V dual supplies. The
single TSM921 and the dual TSM922 draw less than
4μA (max) supply current over temperature. The dual
TSM923 and the quad TSM924 draw less than 2.5μA
per comparator over temperature.
All comparators in this family exhibit an input voltage
range from the negative supply rail to within 1.3V of
the positive supply. In addition, the comparators’
push-pull output stages are TTL/CMOS compatible
and capable of sinking and sourcing current. The
TSM921/TSM923/TSM924 each incorporates an
internal 1.182V ±1% voltage reference. Without
complicated feedback configurations and only
requiring two additional resistors, adding external
hysteresis via a separate pin is available on the single
TSM921 and the dual TSM923.

TSM921-TSM924
THEORY OF OPERATION
recommended to evaluate the circuit over the entire
power supply range and temperature.
The TSM921–TSM924 family of single/dual/quad,
low-voltage, micropower analog comparators
provide excellent flexibility and performance while
sourcing continuously up to 40mA of current. The
TSM921, TSM923, and the TSM924 provide an
on-board 1.182V ±1% reference voltage. To
minimize glitches that can occur with parasitic
feedback or due to less than optimal board layout,
the design of the TSM921-TSM924 output stage is
optimized to eliminate crowbar glitches as the output
switches. To minimize current consumption while
providing flexibility, the TSM921 and the TSM923
have an on-board HYST pin in order to add
additional hysteresis.
Comparator Output
Power-Supply and Input Signal Ranges
The TSM921-TSM924 can operate from a single
supply voltage range of +2.5V to +11V, provide a
wide common mode input voltage range of V- to
V+-1.3V, and accept input signals ranging from V- to
V+ - 1V. The inputs can accept an input as much as
300mV above and below the power supply rails
without damage to the part. While the TSM921 and
the TSM924 are able to operate from a single supply
voltage range, a GND pin is available that allows for
a dual supply operation with a range of ±1.25V to
±5.5V. If a single supply operation is desired, the
GND pin needs to be tied to V-. In a dual supply
mode, the TSM921 and the TSM924 are TTL/CMOS
compatible with a ±5V voltage and the TSM922 and
the TSM923 are TTL compatible with a single +5V
supply.
The TSM921 and the TSM924 have a GND pin that
allows the output to swing from V+ to GND while the
V- pin can be set to a voltage below GND as long as
the voltage difference between V+ and V- is within
11V. Having a different voltage on V- will not affect
the output swing. For TTL applications, V+ can be
set to +5V±10% and V- can be set anywhere
between 0V and -5V±10%. On the other hand, the
TSM922 and the TSM923 do not have a GND pin;
hence, for TTL applications, V+ needs to be set to a
+5V power supply and V- to 0V. Furthermore, the
output design of the TSM921-TSM924 can source
and sink more than 40mA and 5mA, respectively,
while simultaneously maintaining a quiescent current
in the microampere range. If the power dissipation of
the package is maintained within the max limit, the
output can source pulses of 100mA of current with
V+ set to +5V. In an effort to minimize external
component count needed to address power supply
feedback, the TSM921-TSM924 output does not
produce crowbar switching current as the output
switches. With a 10mV input overdrive, the
propagation delay of the TSM921-TSM924 is 12μs.
Voltage Reference
The TSM921, TSM923, and TSM924 have an onboard 1.182V reference voltage with an accuracy of
±1%. The REF pin is able to source and sink 15μA
and 8μA of current, respectively. The REF pin is
referenced to V- and it should not be bypassed.
Low-Voltage Operation: V+ = 1.5V (TSM924 Only)
Noise Considerations
Due to a decrease in propagation delay and a
reduction in output drive, the TSM921-TSM923
cannot be used with a supply voltage much lower
than 2.5V. However, the TSM924 can operate down
to a supply voltage of 2V; however, as the supply
voltage reduces, the TSM924 supply current drops
and the performance is degraded. When the supply
voltage drops to 2.2V, the reference voltage will no
longer function; however, the comparators will
function down to a 1.5V supply voltage.
Furthermore, the input voltage range is extended to
just below 1.5V the positive supply rail. For
applications with a sub-2.5V power supply, it is
Noise can play a role in the overall performance of
the TSM921-TSM924. Despite having a large gain, if
the input voltage is near or equal to the input offset
voltage, the output will randomly switch HIGH and
LOW. As a result, the TSM921-TSM924 produces a
peak-to-peak noise of approximately 0.3mVPP while
the reference voltage produces a peak-to-peak
noise of approximately 1mVPP. Furthermore, it is
important to design a layout that minimizes
capacitive coupling from a given output to the
reference pin as crosstalk can add noise and, as a
result, degrade performance.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Hysteresis
As a result of circuit noise or unintended parasitic
feedback, many analog comparators often break into
oscillation within their linear region of operation
especially when the applied differential input voltage
approaches 0V (zero volt). Externally-introduced
hysteresis is a well-established technique to
stabilizing analog comparator behavior and requires
external components. As shown in Figure 1, adding
comparator hysteresis creates two trip points: VTHR
(for the rising input voltage) and VTHF (for the falling
input voltage). The hysteresis band (VHB) is defined
as the voltage difference between the two trip points.
When a comparator’s input voltages are equal,
hysteresis effectively forces one comparator input to
move quickly past the other input, moving the input
out of the region where oscillation occurs. Figure 2
illustrates the case in which an IN- input is a fixed
voltage and an IN+ is varied. If the input signals
were reversed, the figure would be the same with an
inverted output.
Figure 2. Programming the HYST Pin
and REF-50mV, where a voltage of REF-50mV
generates the maximum voltage across R1 and
thus, the maximum hysteresis and hysteresis band
of 50mV and 100mV, respectively. To design the
circuit for a desired hysteresis band, consider the
equations below to acquire the values for resistors
R1 and R2:

where IREF is the primary source of current out of the
reference pin and should be maintained within the
maximum current the reference can source. This is
typically in the range of 0.1μA and 4μA. It is also
important to ensure that the current from reference is
much larger than the HYST pin input current. Given
R2 = 2.4MΩ, the current sourced by the reference is
0.5μA. This allows the hysteresis band and R1 to be
approximated as follows:
Hysteresis (TSM921 and TSM923)
R1(kΩ)
Hysteresis can be generated with two external
resistors using positive feedback as shown in
Figure 2. Resistor R1 is connected between REF
and HYST and R2 is connected between HYST and
V-. This will increase the trip point for the rising input
voltage, VTHR, and decrease the trip point for the
falling input voltage, VTHF, by the same amount. If no
hysteresis is required, connect the HYST pin to the
REF pin. The hysteresis band, VHB, is voltage across
the REF and HYST pin multiplied by a factor of 2.
The HYST pin can accept a voltage between REF
For the TSM923, the hysteresis is the same for both
comparators.

Hysteresis (TSM922 and TSM924)
Relative to adding hysteresis with the HYST pin as
was done for the TSM921 and the TSM923, the
circuit in Figure 3 uses positive feedback along with
two external resistors to set the desired hysteresis
for the TSM924. The circuit consumes more current
and it slows down the hysteresis effect due to the

high impedance on the feedback. The following
procedure explains the steps to design the circuit for
a desired hysteresis:
1. Choose R3. As the leakage current at the
IN+ pin is less than 1nA, the current through
R3 should be at least 100nA to minimize
offset voltage errors caused by the input
leakage current. For R3
11.8MΩ, the
current through R3 is VREF/R3 at the trip
point. In this case, a 10MΩ resistor is a good
standard value for R3.
2. Next, the desired hysteresis band (VHB) is
set. In this example, VHB is set to 50mV.

Board Layout and Bypassing
While power-supply bypass capacitors are not
typically required, it is good engineering practice to
use 0.1μF bypass capacitors close to the device’s
power supply pins when the power supply
impedance is high, the power supply leads are long,
or there is excessive noise on the power supply
traces. To reduce stray capacitance, it is also good
engineering practice to make signal trace lengths as
short as possible. Also recommended are a ground
plane and surface mount resistors and capacitors.

100kΩ
In this example, a 100kΩ, 1% standard
value resistor is selected for R1.
4. Choose the trip point for VIN rising (VTHR),
which is the threshold voltage at which the
comparator switches its output from low to
high as VIN rises above the trip point. In this
example, choose VTHR = 3V.

VTHR
A timed auto power-off circuit can be designed as
shown in Figure 4 where the output of the TSM921
is the switched power-supply output. With an internal
reference, hysteresis, high current output, and a
2.5 μA supply current, the TSM921 provides a
wealth of features that make it perfect for this
application. While consuming only 3.5μA of
quiescent current with a 10mA load, the TSM921 is
able to generate a voltage of VBATT – 0.12V. As
shown in Figure 4, three resistors are used to
generate a hysteresis band of 100mV and sets the
IN+ trip point to 50mV when IN+ is going low. The
maximum power-on period of the OUT pin before
power-down occurs can be determined by the RC
time constant as follows:

the circuit, the following procedure needs to be
followed:
1. As described in the section “Hysteresis
(TSM921 and TSM923)”, determine the
desired hysteresis and select resistors R4
and R5 accordingly. This circuit has ±5mV of
hysteresis at the input where the input
voltage VIN will appear larger due to the
input resistor divider.

quiescent current.

The period value will change depending on the
leakage current and the voltage applied to the
circuit. For instance: 2MΩ x 10μF x 4. s = 92 s.
2. Selecting R1. As the leakage current at the
INB- pin is less than 1nA, the current
through R1 should be at least 100nA to
minimize offset voltage errors caused by the
input leakage current. Values within 100kΩ
and 1MΩ are recommended. In this
example, a 294kΩ, 1% standard value
resistor is selected for R1.
3. Calculating R2 + R3. As the input voltage
VIN rises, the overvoltage threshold should
be 5.5V. Choose R2 + R3 as follows:
Window Detector
The schematic shown in Figure 5 is for a 4.5V
undervoltage threshold detector and a 5.5V

circuit will minimize chattering on the output when
the input voltage is close to the trip point. OUTA and
OUTB generate the active low undervoltage
indication and active-low overvoltage indication,
respectively. If both OUTA and OUTB signals are
ANDed together, the resulting output of the AND

Bar-Graph Level Gauge
A simple four-stage level detector is shown in
Figure 6 using the TSM924. Due to its high output
source capability, the TSM921 is perfect for driving
LEDs. When all of the LEDs are on, the threshold
voltage is set by resistors R1 and R2 where VIN =(R1
+ R2)/R1 volts. All other threshold voltages are
scaled down accordingly by ¾, ½, and ¼ the
threshold voltage. The current through the LEDs is
limited by the output resistors.

Figure 7 provides a simple way to shift from bipolar
±5V inputs to TTL signals by using the TSM924. To
protect the comparator inputs, 10kΩ resistors are
placed in series and do not have an effect on the
performance of the circuit.
