Linear comparators are electronic circuits used to compare two input signals and output either a digital or analog voltage or current indicating which signal has a greater magnitude. The BA2901SKN-E2 is an operational amplifier type linear comparator that is used in many applications. This article will discuss the application fields and working principle of the BA2901SKN-E2.

The BA2901SKN-E2 is a high-precision, high-speed linear comparator designed for use in multiple types of applications. It is suitable for a wide range of analog and digital applications, from medical to industrial, including power monitoring, motor control, temperature sensing, consumer electronics, and others. The comparator is designed for single-supply operation and can operate from a minimum of 2V up to 6V and can draw up to 7mA from a 4V single supply. With a low-voltage operation, it provides high accuracy, low stand-by power consumption and allows for low EMC generation—making it ideal for portable and/or battery-operated applications.

The BA2901SKN-E2 has two inputs and one output. The two inputs are the positive (+) and the negative (-) and the output is the result of the comparison between the two inputs. That output is either an \'on\' state (when the + voltage is higher than the - voltage) or an \'off\' state (when the - voltage is higher than the + voltage). There is also a hysteresis level inherent in the comparator that controls how far the two inputs have to differ in order to trigger the output. This hysteresis is adjustable via an external resistor connected between pins 7 and 8 and is denoted by the “H” label in the datasheet.

The working principle of the BA2901SKN-E2 is fairly straightforward. It functions as an operational amplifier with a small input voltage differential from its two inputs that cause the output to switch from one state to another. The operational amplifier amplifies the difference between the two inputs and the result is an output that is either a logic “1” (indicating the + input is higher than the - input) or a logic “0” (indicating the - input is higher than the + input). The adjustable hysteresis threshold ensures that the outputs will not easily suffer from noise or other interference—a feature that is critical in environments such as medical and automotive.

The BA2901SKN-E2 is a versatile and highly accurate linear comparator that can be used in numerous applications. It has a simple working principle and is low-power consumption, making it well suited for battery-operated devices. Combined with its low-voltage operation, high accuracy and low EMC generation, it is the optimal choice for many consumer and industrial applications.
