Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Dual comparator IC with independent high-speed voltage comparators for open-collector outputs. Each comparator compares two input voltages and switches output based on the difference. Typical applications include window comparators, Schmitt triggers, analog-to-digital conversion interfaces, and threshold detection circuits.
Package: SOIC-8 (3.9×4.9mm) · 8 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
An 8-pin SOIC with 1.27mm pitch is too fine for breadboards and hand-soldering without a microscope. A breakout board routes these pins to standard 0.1" headers, enabling rapid prototyping and reliable connections for op-amps, transceivers, and small power MOSFETs without requiring reflow equipment.
