The Texas Instruments TLV3202AIDR is a dual general-purpose comparator with push-pull outputs and a 50 ns propagation delay, housed in an 8-SOIC package. It operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply, drawing a maximum quiescent current of 50 µA per channel. The rail-to-rail input stage and 1.2 mV of built-in hysteresis make it a clean fit for fast overcurrent detection, zero-crossing detectors, and window comparators in industrial and automotive environments rated from -40°C to 125°C.
50 ns propagation delay — what it buys you
The 50 ns propagation delay at 5 V means this comparator can resolve input transitions faster than a typical comparator. That speed matters when you are conditioning a high-frequency sensor output or building a cycle-by-cycle current limit for a switching converter. The push-pull output eliminates the external pull-up resistor, saving one component per channel and cleaning up the layout.
Package and mounting
The 8-SOIC package (3.90 mm body width) is a standard footprint shared by countless op-amps and comparators. Surface-mount assembly is straightforward; the 0.154-inch pitch matches common PCB land patterns. The supplier device package is also 8-SOIC, so no footprint mismatch between the case and the recommended land pattern.
