The TS12011/TS12012 combine a 0.58V reference, a
20µs comparator, and a unity-gain stable op amp in a
single IC. All three devices operate from a single 0.8V
to 2.5V power supply and consume less than 1.6µA
total supply current. Supply current for all three
functions over 0.8V to 2.5V supply range is
guaranteed 1.6µA max.
Super-flexible for crafting voltage detectors, timers,
and wake-up circuits, these bundled functions exhibit
low shoot-through currents and graceful power-down
modes. Both the comparator and the op amp feature
rail-to-rail input stages. The latching comparator
exhibits ±7.5mV of internal hysteresis for clean,
chatter-free output switching. When compared
against similar products, the TS12011/TS12012 offer
a factor-of-20 lower power consumption and at least a
55% reduction in pcb area.
The TS12011’s comparator has a push-pull output
stage with break-before-make switches for low shootthrough currents. The TS12012’s comparator has an
open-drain output having no parasitic diode to VDD,
for interfacing to wired-OR or mixed-voltage logic.
The TS12011 and the TS12012 are fully specified
over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range and each
is available in a low-profile, 10-pin 2x2mm TDFN
package with an exposed back-side paddle.

BLOCK DIAGRAM
THEORY OF OPERATION
The TS12011 and TS12012 are multi-purpose CMOS
building blocks intended for creating analog glue
functions around battery-powered uC systems. There
is an op amp for signal conditioning, a comparator for
detection, and a reference to establish detection
threshold levels. It’s possible to build a wide variety of
timers, event detectors, regulators, and voltage
monitors using these flexible uncommitted blocks.
Optimized for low-voltage operation, these devices
draw less than 1.6uA total from a 0.8V to 2.5V
supply. The op amp and comparator blocks typically
continue to function down to less than 0.5V
(REFOUT will go into dropout, however).
Comparator
The comparator block is designed for high gain and
chatter-free output switching in noisy environments.
The comparator inputs have rail-to-rail VIN range,
TS12011/12 Rev. 1.0
and exhibit +/-7.5mV of hysteresis.
The only
difference between the two device types is in the
output stage of the comparator. The TS12011 has a
push-pull output and latches in the high state. The
TS12012 has an open-drain output, latches in the low
state, and can tolerate pull-up voltages higher than
the supply (up to 5.5V absolute max above
VSS/GND).
TS12011 push-pull output driver was designed to
minimize supply-current surges while driving ±100µA
loads with an output swing to within 100mV of the
supply rails. The TS12011 and the TS12012 can sink
0.5mA and 1.4mA of current, respectively. The
TS12011 can source 0.1mA of current.
The non-traditional latch function works to detect and
latch changes in the input state. If the LHDET control
input is enabled, the output will latch high (low for the
TS12012) whenever the differential input voltage is
high enough to force a change in that direction. If the
differential voltage is in the wrong direction to force a
Page 9
TS12011/TS12012
change, the comparator stays active and waits for the
crossing, at which point it will latch in its final state.
An internal POR circuit ensures that the latch powers
up in the “comparator active” state if LHDET is low
when VDD is first applied.

Reference
The TS12011 and TS12012 on-board 0.58V ±4.5%
reference voltage can source and sink 0.1µA and
0.1µA of current and can drive a capacitive load less
than 50pF and greater than 50nF with a maximum
capacitive load of 250nF. The higher the capacitive
load, the lower the noise on the reference voltage
and the longer the time needed for the reference
voltage to respond and become available on the
REFOUT pin. With a 250nF capacitive load, the
reference voltage will settle to within specifications in
approximately 20ms.
Page 10
Op Amp
The TS12011 and TS12012 have a unity-gain stable
op-amp with a GBWP of 15kHz, a slew rate of 6V/ms,
and can drive a capacitive load up to 50pF. The
common mode input voltage range extends from VSS
to VDD and the input bias current and offset current
are less than 20nA and 2nA, respectively.
Op-Amp Stability
The TS12011 and TS12012 op-amp is able to drive
up to 50pF of capacitive load and still maintain
stability in a unity-gain configuration with a 15kHz
GBWP and a phase margin of 70 degrees with a
100kΩ//20pF output load.
Though the TS12011 and TS12012 address low
frequency applications, it is essential to perform good
layout techniques in order to minimize board leakage
and stray capacitance, which is of a concern in low
power, high impedance circuits. For instance, a
10MΩ resistor coupled with a 1pF stray capacitance
can lead to a pole at approximately 15kHz, which is
the GBWP of the device. If stray capacitance is
unavoidable, a feedback capacitor can be placed in
parallel with the feedback resistor.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Comparator 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 for
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 1
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. To save cost and external pcb area,
an internal ±7.5mV hysteresis circuit was added to
the TS12011 and TS12012.
TS12011/12 Rev. 1.0
TS12011/TS12012
and if IR2 = 150nA is chosen, then the
formulae above produce two resistor values:
3.87MΩ and 12.8MΩ - a 4.02MΩ standard
value for R2 is selected.
2)
Next, the desired hysteresis band (VHYSB) is
set. In this example, VHYSB is set to 100mV.
3)
Resistor R1 is calculated according to the
following equation:
R1 = R2 x (VHYSB/VDD)
Figure 1. TS12011/TS12012 Threshold
Hysteresis Band
and substituting the values selected in 1) and
2) above yields:
Adding Hysteresis to the TS12011 Push-pull
Output Option
R1 = 4.02MΩ x (100mV/2.5V) = 160.8kΩ.
Additional hysteresis can be generated with three
external resistors using positive feedback as shown
in Figure 2. Unfortunately, this method also reduces
the hysteresis response time. The procedure to
calculate the resistor values for the TS12011 is as
follows:
The 160kΩ standard value for R1 is chosen.
4)
The trip point for COMPIN+ rising (VTHR) is
chosen such that VTHR > VREFOUT x (R1 +
R2)/R2 (VTHF is the trip point for VCOMPIN+
falling). This is the threshold voltage at which
the comparator switches its output from low
to high as VCOMPIN+ rises above the trip point.
In this example, VTHR is set to 2.
5)
With the VTHR from Step 4 above, resistor R3
is then computed as follows:
R3 = 1/[VTHR/(VREFOUT x R1) - (1/R1) - (1/R2)]
R3 = 1/[2V/(0.58V x 160kΩ) - (1/160kΩ) (1/4.02MΩ)] = 66.43kΩ

Additional Hysteresis in the TS12011
1)
Setting R2. As the leakage current at the IN
pin is less than 20nA, the current through R2
should be at least 150nA to minimize offset
voltage errors caused by the input leakage
current. The current through R2 at the trip
point is (VREFOUT - VCOMPOUT)/R2.
In this example, a 69.8kΩ, 1% standard
value resistor is selected for R3.
6)
The last step is to verify the trip voltages and
hysteresis band using the standard
resistance values:
For VCOMPIN+ rising:
In solving for R2, there are two formulas –
one each for the two possible output states:
VTHR = VREFOUT x R1 [(1/R1) + (1/R2) + (1/R3)]
= 1.93V
R2 = VREFOUT/IR2
or
R2 = (VDD - VREFOUT)/IR2
From the results of the two formulae, the
smaller of the two resulting resistor values is
chosen. For example, when using the
TS12011 (VREFOUT = 0.58V) at a VDD = 2.5V
TS12011/12 Rev. 1.0
For VCOMPIN+ falling:
VTHF = VTHR - (R1 x VDD/R2) = 1.83V
and Hysteresis Band = VTHR – VTHF = 100mV

TS12011/TS12012
Adding Hysteresis to the TS12012 Open-Drain
Option
The TS12012 has open-drain output and requires an
external pull-up resistor to VDD as shown in Figure 3.
R3 = 1/[VTHR/(VREFOUT x R1) - (1/R1) - (1/R2)]
6) As before, the last step is to verify the trip
voltages and hysteresis band with the
standard resistor values used in the circuit:
For VCOMPIN+ rising:
VTHR = VREFOUT x R1 x (1/R1+1/R2+1/R3)
For VCOMPIN+ falling:
VTHF = VREFOUT x R1 x(1/R1+1/R3+1/(R2+R4))
-(R1/(R2+R4)) x VDD
and Hysteresis Band is given by VTHR – VTHF
Figure 3. Using Four Resistors Introduces
Additional Hysteresis in the TS12012
Additional hysteresis can be generated using positive
feedback; however, the formulae differ slightly from
those of the push-pull option TS12011. The
procedure to calculate the resistor values for the
TS12012 is as follows:
1) As in the previous section, resistor R2 is
chosen according to the formulae:
PC Board Layout and Power-Supply Bypassing
While power-supply bypass capacitors are not
typically required, it is good engineering practice to
use 0.1uF 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.
R2 = VREFOUT/150nA
Input Noise
or
where the smaller of the two resulting resistor
values is the best starting value.
Radiated noise is common in low power circuits that
require high impedance circuits. To minimize this
effect, all traces between the inputs of the
comparator or op-amp and passive component
networks should be made as short as possible.
2) As before, the desired hysteresis band
(VHYSB) is set to 100mV.
Pilot Light Flame Detector with Low-Battery
Lockout Circuit
3) Next, resistor R1 is then computed according
to the following equation:
The TS12011 can be used to create a pilot flame
detector with low-battery lockout circuit as shown in
Figure 4. The circuit is able to detect when the
thermocouple does not detect the pilot flame and
when the battery in the circuit drops to 1.39V. This
circuit makes use of the op-amp, comparator, and
0.58V reference in the TS12011. In this example, a
type R thermocouple is used. It generates a voltage
range from 9mV to 17mV that corresponds to a
temperature range of 900ºC to 1500ºC, which is
typical of a methane pilot flame. If the pilot flame is
removed, the temperature drops; hence, the output
voltage generated by the thermocouple is drops to a
minimum voltage of 0.1mV that is applied to the non-
R2 = (VDD- VREFOUT)/150nA - R4
R1 = (R2 + R4) x (VHYSB/VDD)
4) The trip point for VCOMPIN+ rising (VTHR) is
chosen (again, remember that VTHF is the trip
point for VCOMPIN+ falling). This is the
threshold voltage at which the comparator
switches its output from low to high as
VCOMPIN+ rises above the trip point.
5) With the VTHR from Step 4 above, resistor R3
is computed as follows:

TS12011/TS12012
inverting input of the op-amp. This switches the
output voltage of the op-amp to a LOW state and in
turn, switches Q1 off. If, however, the battery voltage
drops from 1.5V to 1.39V, the comparator output will
switch from an output HIGH to a LOW. This will turn
off Q2 and the output of the op-amp will turn Q1 off.
The complete circuit consumes approximately 95µA
of supply current at VDD = 1.5V.
