About this manual

The LMC7221 is a tiny, low‑power CMOS comparator designed for space‑ and weight‑critical designs. It is available in a 5‑pin SOT‑23‑5 package (0.120 × 0.118 in) and an 8‑pin SO‑8 package, both with rail‑to‑rail input range and an open‑drain output that can be pulled up to voltages above the supply.

Typical applications include mixed‑voltage battery‑powered products, notebooks, PCMCIA cards, mobile communications, alarm and security circuits, and direct sensor interfaces. Key performance figures are a typical supply current of 7 µA at 5 V, input offset voltage of 5 mV or 15 mV, and a short‑circuit output current rating of 40 mA.
