The comparator’s features include less than 0.6µA supply current over the commercial temperature range, a 1.182V ±2% reference, programmable hysteresis and TTL/CMOS outputs that sink and source current. The reference output can drive a bypass capacitor of up to 0.01µF without oscillation. The comparator operates from a single 2V to 11V supply or a dual ±1V to ±5.5V supply. Comparator hysteresis is easily programmed by using two resistors and the HYST pin. Each comparator’s input operates from the negative supply to within 1.3V of the positive supply. The comparator output stage can continuously source up to 40mA. By eliminating the cross-conducting current that normally occur when the comparator changes logic states, power supply glitches are eliminated.

Features include programmable hysteresis, wide supply voltage range (2V to 11V) and the ability of the reference to drive up to a 0.01µF capacitor without oscillation. The comparator’s CMOS outputs can source up to 40mA while supply current glitches that normally occur when switching logic states, have been eliminated. Power Supplies The comparator operates from a single 2V to 11V supply. The LTC1540 includes a separate ground for the comparator output stage, allowing a split supply ranging from ±1V to ±5.5V. Connecting V – to GND will allow single supply operation. If the comparator output is required to source more than 1mA, or the supply source impedance is high, V + should be bypassed with a 0.1µF capacitor. Comparator Inputs The comparator inputs can swing from the negative supply, V –, to within 1.3V (max) of the positive supply V+. The inputs can be forced 300mV below V– or above V+ without damage and the typical input leakage current is only ±10pA. Comparator Output The comparator output swings between GND and V + to assure TTL compatibility with a split supply. The output is capable of sourcing up to 40mA and sinking up to 5mA while still maintaining nanoampere quiescent currents. The output stage does not generate crowbar switching currents during transitions which helps minimize parasitic feedback through the supply pins. Voltage Reference The internal bandgap reference has a voltage of 1.182V referenced to V –. The reference accuracy is ±2.0% from 0°C to 70°C. It can source up to 1mA and sink up to 10µA with a 5V supply. The reference can drive a bypass capacitor of up to 0.01µF without oscillation and by inserting a series resistor, capacitance values up to 10µF can be used (Figure 1). Figure 2 shows the resistor value required for different capacitor values to achieve critical damping. Bypassing the reference can help prevent false tripping of the comparators by preventing glitches on V + or reference load transients from disturbing the reference output voltage. 5 LTC1540 U U W U APPLICATIONS INFORMATION REFERENCE OUTPUT 7 V+ REF R1 3 IN + LTC1540 LTC1540 + 8 C1 4 IN– V– 5V TO 8V 1540 • F01 OUT – 5 HYST R2 10k 6 REF Figure 1.

Power Supply Transient Rejection Low Voltage Operation: V + = 1.6V 6 5 V – = GND = 0V IN+ = 0V IN – = REF = HYST TA = 25°C 4 SUPPLY CURRENT (µA) The guaranteed minimum operating voltage is 2V (or ±1V). As the total supply voltage is reduced below 2V, the performance degrades and the supply current falls. At low supply voltages, the comparator’s output drive is reduced and the propagation delay increases. The VREF and VOS are also slightly worse. The useful input voltage range extends from the negative supply to 0.9V below the positive supply. Test your prototype over the full temperature and supply voltage range if operation below 2V is anticipated. Because of the increase in supply current, operation below 1.5V is not recommended (Figure 4). 1540 F03b 3 2 1 0 0 0.5 1.5 2.0 1.0 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) 2.5 1540 F04 Figure 4. Supply Current vs Supply Voltage LTC1540 U W U U APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Hysteresis Hysteresis can be added to the LTC1540 by connecting a resistor (R1) between the REF and HYST pins and a second resistor (R2) from HYST to V – (Figure 5). up to 15%. If hysteresis is not wanted, the HYST pin should be shorted to REF. Acceptable values for IREF range from 0.1µA to 5µA. If 2.4M is chosen for R2, then the value of R1 (kΩ) is equal to the value of VHB (mV). The difference between the upper and lower threshold voltages, or hysteresis voltage band (VHB), is equal to twice the voltage difference between the REF and HYST pins. 6 IREF LTC1540 R1 5 When more hysteresis is added, the upper threshold increases the same amount as the low threshold decreases. The maximum voltage allowed between REF and HYST pins is 50mV, producing a maximum hysteresis voltage band of 100mV. The hysteresis band may vary by R1 = REF HYST R2 = VHB (2)(IREF) ( V– 2 R2 1.182V – VHB 2 ) IREF 1540 • F05 Figure 5. Programmable Hysteresis U TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Level Detector The LTC1540 is ideal for use as a nanopower level detector as shown in Figure 6. R1 and R2 form a voltage divider from VIN to the noninverting comparator input. R3 and R4 set the hysteresis voltage, and R5 and C1 bypass the reference output. The following design procedure can be used to select the component values: 1. Choose the VIN voltage trip level, in this example 4.65V. 2. Calculate the required resistive divider ratio. Ratio = VREF/ VIN Ratio = 1.182V/4.65V = 0.254 3. Choose the required hysteresis voltage band at the input VHBIN, in this example 60mV.

Glitch-Free Level Detector with Hysteresis 7 LTC1540 U TYPICAL APPLICATIONS 3.3V Output Low Dropout Linear Regulator The LTC1540 can be connected as a micropower (IQ = 5.5µA at VIN = 5V) low dropout linear regulator (Figure 7). When the output is low, Q1 turns on, allowing current to charge output capacitor C1. Local feedback formed by R4, Q1 and Q2 creates a constant-current source from the 5V input to C1. R4, R1 and Q2’s VBE also provide current limiting in the case of an output short-circuit to ground. C2 reduces output ripple, while the R2-R3 feedback voltage divider establishes the output voltage. output is the switched power supply output. With a 10mA load, it typically provides a voltage of (VBAT – 0.17V). The whole circuit draws a mere 0.8µA of quiescent current with VBAT = 5V. The three resistor voltage divider programs 50mV of hysteresis for the comparator, and sets the IN – voltage at 200mV. This gives an IN + trip threshold of approximately 150mV The RC time constant determines the maximum power-on time of the OUT pin before power down occurs. This period can be approximated by: t = 4.6RC (seconds) Auto Power-Off Source Figure 8 shows the circuit for a 30mA power supply that has a timed auto power-off function.

Some parameters, such as VREF and VOS, will be degraded on lower supply voltages. The input voltage range extends from 0.9V below the positive supply to the negative supply. Figure 9 shows how to use the LTC1540 for a low-battery detect, drawing only 1.4µA at VBAT = 2V. The circuit is powered by a 2-cell NiCd battery.

SO8 0996 11 LTC1540 U TYPICAL APPLICATION RF Field Detector Figure 10 shows the complete circuit for a field detector which was tested at 445MHz. A transmission line is used to match the detector diode (1N5712) to a quarter-wave whip antenna. The 0.23λ wavelength transmission line section transforms the 1pF (350Ω) diode junction capacitance to a virtual short at the base of the antenna. At the same time it converts the received antenna current to a voltage loop at the diode, giving excellent sensitivity. The rectified output is monitored by the LTC1540 comparator. The internal reference is used to set up a threshold of about 18mV at the inverting input. A rising edge at the comparator output triggers a one shot that temporarily enables answer back and any other pulsed functions. The total supply current is 400nA. Among other monolithic one shots, the CD4047 draws the least amount of transient current. 2V TO 11V λ /4 FB 12M 10k 5 3 + 10nF LTC1540 4 0.23λ 10nF 6 – 180k 7 8 CMOS ONE SHOT (CD4047) Q Q 1 2 1540 F10 1N5712 Figure 10.
