DESCRIPTION
These devices consist of four independent preci-
sion voltage comparators with an offset voltage
specifications as low as 2mV max for LM339A,
LM239A and LM139A. All these comparators
were designed specifically to operate from a sin-
gle power supply aver a wide range of voltages.
Operation from split power su pplies is also possi-
ble.
These comparators also have a unique character-
istic in that the input common-mode voltage range
includes ground even though operated from a sin-
gle power supply voltage.

comparator will provide a proper output s tate. The low input voltage state must not be less than -0.3V (or 0.3V bellow the negative power supply, if
used).
