DESCRIPTION
These devices consist of fourindependentprecision
voltage comparators with an offset voltage specifi-
cations as low as 2mV max for LM339A, LM239A
and LM139A. All these comparators were designed ORDER CODES
specifically to operate from a single power supply Part Temperature Package
over a wide range of voltages. Operation from split Number Range N D P
power supplies is also possible.
LM139,A -55, +125oC • • •
These comparators also have a unique characteris-
LM239,A -40, +105oC • • •
tic in that the input common-mode voltage range o
includes ground even thoughoperatedfrom a single LM339,A 0, +70 C • • •
