LT6700HVCS6-2#TRMPBF

The LT6700HVCS6-2#TRMPBF is a linear-comparator from Linear Technology Corporation. It is a dual Ultra-High voltage comparator that operates from a single supply voltage as high as 20V with a maximum input offset voltage of only 8mV. It also provides for low supply current and accurately track with the changing temperature coefficient. This makes the comparator well-suited for applications that require high-precision switching and measurements at temperatures between -40°C and +125°C.

Application Field

This comparator is well-suited for a variety of applications such as temperature detection, signal conditioning, timing circuits, and level detection. It is also suitable for signal acquisition and power management applications. For example, it could be used for signal conditioning tasks such as comparing the output of a trigger signal to a reference level or comparing a temperature sensor to thresholds. It could also be combined with a timer to control the enable duration of a motor driver or switching circuits, or it could be used in conjunction with an ADC or DAC to measure analog signals.

Working Principle

The LT6700HVCS6-2#TRMPBF functions by comparing an input voltage to a reference voltage and providing a voltage output signal representing the result. The comparator has two input pins and one output pin along with an adjustable hysteresis pin. The output voltage is determined by how far the input voltage differs from the reference voltage. If the input voltage is greater than the reference voltage, the output voltage is limited to a high-signal-level state. Conversely, if the input voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the output voltage is limited to a low-signal-level state. The hysteresis pin can be adjusted to add hysteresis, which is particularly useful for compensating for noise and preventing false triggering.

The LT6700HVCS6-2#TRMPBF is a versatile comparator that can be used in a variety of applications requiring precise operation over wide temperature ranges. It has a robust input stage and low offset voltage, allowing it to be used in precision level detection, signal acquisition, and power management applications.
