CAUTION: Stresses above those listed in “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress only rating and operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied.
NOTES:
1. Maximum power dissipation, including output load, must be designed to maintain the junction temperature below 175
o
C for ceramic packages,
and below 150
o
C for plastic packages.
2. Total Power Dissipation (T.P.D.) is the sum of individual dissipation contributions of V+, V- and V
LOGIC
shown in curves of Power Dissipation
vs Supply Voltages (see Performance Curves). The calculated T.P.D. is then located on the graph of Maximum Allowable Package Dissipation
vs Ambient Temperature to determine ambient temperature operating limits imposed by the calculated T.P.D. (See Performance Curves). For
instance, the combination of +15V, -15V, +5V, 0V (V+, V-, V
LOGIC
+, V
LOGIC
-) gives a T.P.D. of 350mW, the combination +15V, -15V, +15V,
0V gives a T.P.D. of 450mW.

With differential input voltages from

Applying the HA-4900 Series Comparators
Supply Connections
This device is exceptionally versatile in working with most
available power supplies. The voltage applied to the V+ and V-
terminals determines the allowable input signal range; while the
voltage applied to the V
L
+ and V
L
- determines the output
swing. In systems where dual analog supplies are available,
these would be connected to V+ and V-, while the logic supply
and return would be connected to V
LOGIC
+ and V
LOGIC
-. The
analog and logic supply commons can be connected together
at one point in the system, since the comparator is immune to
noise on the logic supply ground. A negative output swing may
be obtained by connecting V
L
+ to ground and V
L
- to a negative
supply. Bipolar output swings (15V
P-P
, Max) may be obtained
using dual supplies. In systems where only a single logic supply
is available (+5V to 15V), V+ and V
LOGIC
+ may be connected
together to the positive supply while V- and V
LOGIC
- are
grounded. If an input signal could swing negative with respect
the V- terminal, a resistor should be connected in series with
the input to limit input current to < 5mA since the C-B junction of
the input transistor would be forward biased.
Power Supply Decoupling
Decouple all power supply lines with 0.01µF ceramic capacitors
to ground line located near the package to reduce coupling
between channels or from external sources.
Response Time
Fast rise time (<200ns) input pulses of several volts
amplitude may result in delay times somewhat longer than
those illustrated for 100mV steps. Operating speed is
optimized by limiting the maximum differential input voltage
applied, with resistor-diode clamping networks.
Typical Applications
Data Acquisition System
In this circuit the HA-4900 series is used in conjunction with
a D to A converter to form a simple, versatile, multi-channel
analog input for a data acquisition system. In operation the
processor first sends an address to the D to A, then the
processor reads the digital word generated by the
comparator outputs. To perform a simple comparison, the
processor sets the D to A to a given reference level, then
examines one or more comparator outputs to determine if
their inputs are above or below the reference. A window
comparison consists of two such cycles with 2 reference
levels set by the D to A. One way to digitize the inputs would
be for the processor to increment the D to A in steps. The D
to A address, as each comparator switches, is the digitized
level of the input. While stairstepping the D to A is slower
than successive approximation, all channels are digitized
during one staircase ramp.
Unused Inputs
Inputs of unused comparator sections should be tied to a
differential voltage source to prevent output “chatter.”
Crosstalk
Simultaneous high frequency operation of all other channels
in the package will not affect the output logic state of a given
channel, provided that its differential input voltage is
sufficient to define a given logic state (∆V
IN
≥ ±V
OS
). Low
level or high impedance input lines should be shielded from
other signal sources to reduce crosstalk and interference.

RS-232 To CMOS Line Receiver
This RS-232 type line receiver to drive CMOS logic uses a
Schmitt trigger feedback network to give about 1V input
hysteresis for added noise immunity. A possible problem in
an interface which connects two equipments, each plugged
into a different AC receptacle, is that the power line voltage
may appear at the receiver input when the interface
connection is made or broken. The two diodes and a 3W
input resistor will protect the inputs under these conditions.

applications where very fast transition times are required at
the output even though the signal input is very slow. The
hysteresis loop also reduces false triggering due to noise on
