LT1016IS8

The LT1016IS8 is an ultra-fast precision comparator designed by Analog Devices, offering a typical response time of 10ns. This device is capable of interfacing directly with TTL/CMOS logic and can operate from either a single 5V supply or dual ±5V supplies. Its tight offset voltage specifications and high gain make it suitable for precision applications.

The comparator features complementary outputs to TTL and a unique output stage that provides active drive in both directions for maximum speed. It also includes an output latch capability, allowing input data to be retained at the outputs when the LATCH pin is held high. The LT1016IS8 has a low quiescent negative power supply current of only 3mA.

This component is housed in an 8-Lead SOIC (Narrow 0.15 Inch) package and is designed for surface mount applications. It operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical propagation delay of 9ns and a typical output rise/fall time of 7ns. The typical offset voltage is 1mV, and the supply voltage range is from 4.5V to ±5V.

Applications for the LT1016IS8 include high-speed A/D converters, high-speed sampling circuits, line receivers, extended range V-to-F converters, fast pulse height/width discriminators, zero-crossing detectors, current sense for switching regulators, high-speed triggers, and crystal oscillators.
