DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION

This device consist of two independent voltage comparators that are designed to operate from a single power

supply over a wide range of voltages. Operation from dual supplies also is possible as long as the difference

between the two supplies is 2 V to 36 V, and VCC is at least 1.5 V more positive than the input common-mode

voltage. Current drain is independent of the supply voltage. The outputs can be connected to other

open-collector outputs to achieve wired-AND relationships.

The LM293-EP is characterized for operation from –55°C to 125°C.
