Over Temperature Offset Current: 20 nA Max. Over Temperature Differential Input Voltage Range: ±30V Power Consumption: 135 mW at ±15V DESCRIPTION The LM111-N, LM211-N and LM311-N are voltage comparators that have input currents nearly a thousand times lower than devices like the LM106 or LM710. They are also designed to operate over a wider range of supply voltages: from standard ±15V op amp supplies down to the single 5V supply used for IC logic. Their output is compatible with RTL, DTL and TTL as well as MOS circuits. Further, they can drive lamps or relays, switching voltages up to 50V at currents as high as 50 mA. Both the inputs and the outputs of the LM111-N, LM211-N or the LM311-N can be isolated from system ground, and the output can drive loads referred to ground, the positive supply or the negative supply. Offset balancing and strobe capability are provided and outputs can be wire OR'ed. Although slower than the LM106 and LM710 (200 ns response time vs 40 ns) the devices are also much less prone to spurious oscillations. The LM111-N has the same pin configuration as the LM106 and LM710. The LM211-N is identical to the LM111-N, except that its performance is specified over a −25°C to +85°C temperature range instead of −55°C to +125°C. The LM311-N has a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Typical Applications NOTE Pin connections shown in Schematic Diagram and Typical Applications are for the LMC TO-99 package.

However, when the input signal is a voltage ramp or a slow sine wave, or if the signal source impedance is high (1 kΩ to 100 kΩ), the comparator may burst into oscillation near the crossing-point. This is due to the high gain and wide bandwidth of comparators like the LM111-N. To avoid oscillation or instability in such a usage, several precautions are recommended, as shown in Figure 40 below. 1. The trim pins (pins 5 and 6) act as unwanted auxiliary inputs. If these pins are not connected to a trim-pot, they should be shorted together. If they are connected to a trim-pot, a 0.01 μF capacitor C1 between pins 5 and 6 will minimize the susceptibility to AC coupling. A smaller capacitor is used if pin 5 is used for positive feedback as in Figure 40. 2. Certain sources will produce a cleaner comparator output waveform if a 100 pF to 1000 pF capacitor C2 is connected directly across the input pins. 3. When the signal source is applied through a resistive network, RS, it is usually advantageous to choose an RS′ of substantially the same value, both for DC and for dynamic (AC) considerations. Carbon, tin-oxide, and metal-film resistors have all been used successfully in comparator input circuitry. Inductive wirewound resistors are not suitable. 4. When comparator circuits use input resistors (eg. summing resistors), their value and placement are particularly important. In all cases the body of the resistor should be close to the device or socket. In other words there should be very little lead length or printed-circuit foil run between comparator and resistor to radiate or pick up signals. The same applies to capacitors, pots, etc. For example, if RS=10 kΩ, as little as 5 inches of lead between the resistors and the input pins can result in oscillations that are very hard to damp. Twisting these input leads tightly is the only (second best) alternative to placing resistors close to the comparator. 5. Since feedback to almost any pin of a comparator can result in oscillation, the printed-circuit layout should be engineered thoughtfully. Preferably there should be a groundplane under the LM111-N circuitry, for example, one side of a double-layer circuit card. Ground foil (or, positive supply or negative supply foil) should extend between the output and the inputs, to act as a guard. The foil connections for the inputs should be as small and compact as possible, and should be essentially surrounded by ground foil on all sides, to guard against capacitive coupling from any high-level signals (such as the output). If pins 5 and 6 are not used, they should be shorted together. If they are connected to a trim-pot, the trim-pot should be located, at most, a few inches away from the LM111-N, and the 0.01 μF capacitor should be installed. If this capacitor cannot be used, a shielding printed-circuit foil may be advisable between pins 6 and 7. The power supply bypass capacitors should be located within a couple inches of the LM111-N. (Some other comparators require the power-supply bypass to be located immediately adjacent to the comparator.) 6. It is a standard procedure to use hysteresis (positive feedback) around a comparator, to prevent oscillation, and to avoid excessive noise on the output because the comparator is a good amplifier for its own noise. In the circuit of Figure 41, the feedback from the output to the positive input will cause about 3 mV of hysteresis. However, if RS is larger than 100Ω, such as 50 kΩ, it would not be reasonable to simply increase the value of the positive feedback resistor above 510 kΩ. The circuit of Figure 42 could be used, but it is rather awkward. See the notes in paragraph 7 below. 7. When both inputs of the LM111-N are connected to active signals, or if a high-impedance signal is driving the positive input of the LM111-N so that positive feedback would be disruptive, the circuit of Figure 40 is ideal. The positive feedback is to pin 5 (one of the offset adjustment pins). It is sufficient to cause 1 to 2 mV hysteresis and sharp transitions with input triangle waves from a few Hz to hundreds of kHz. The positivefeedback signal across the 82Ω resistor swings 240 mV below the positive supply. This signal is centered around the nominal voltage at pin 5, so this feedback does not add to the VOS of the comparator. As much as 8 mV of VOS can be trimmed out, using the 5 kΩ pot and 3 kΩ resistor as shown. 8. These application notes apply specifically to the LM111-N, LM211-N, LM311-N, and LF111 families of comparators, and are applicable to all high-speed comparators in general, (with the exception that not all comparators have trim pins). 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM111-N LM211-N LM311-N LM111-N, LM211-N, LM311-N www.ti.com SNOSBJ1E – MAY 1999 – REVISED MARCH 2013 Pin connections shown are for LM111H in the LMC hermetic package.
