LT1720/LT1721
Dual/Quad, 4.5ns, Single
Supply 3V/5V Comparators
with Rail-to-Rail Outputs
DESCRIPTION
The LT®1720/LT1721 are UltraFastTM dual/quad compara-
tors optimized for single supply operation, with a supply
voltagerangeof2.7Vto6V.Theinputvoltagerangeextends
from 100mV below ground to 1.2V below the supply volt-
age. Internal hysteresis makes the LT1720/LT1721 easy to
use even with slow moving input signals. The rail-to-rail
outputs directly interface to TTL and CMOS. Alternatively,
the symmetric output drive can be harnessed for analog
applications or for easy translation to other single supply
logic levels.

APPLICATIONS
n
High Speed Differential Line Receiver
n
Crystal Oscillator Circuits
n
Window Comparators
Threshold Detectors/Discriminators
Pulse Stretchers
Zero-Crossing Detectors
High Speed Sampling Circuits
The pinouts of the LT1720/LT1721 minimize parasitic
effects by placing the most sensitive inputs (inverting)
away from the outputs, shielded by the power rails. The
LT1720/LT1721 are ideal for systems where small size and
low power are paramount.

to do this is to tie IN to V and IN to GND.

Input Bias Current
When both input signals are above the positive common
mode limit, the input stage will become debiased and
the output polarity will be random. However, the internal
hysteresis will hold the output to a valid logic level, and
because the biasing of each comparator is completely
independent, there will be no impact on any other com-
parator. When at least one of the inputs returns to within
the common mode limits, recovery from this state will
take as long as 1μs.
Input bias current is measured with both inputs held at 1V.
AswithanyPNPdifferentialinputstage,theLT1720/LT1721
bias current flows out of the device. With a differential
input voltage of even just 100mV or so, there will be zero
bias current into the higher of the two inputs, while the
current flowing out of the lower input will be twice the
measured bias current. With more than two diode drops
of differential input voltage, the LT1720/LT1721’s input
protection circuitry activates, and current out of the lower
input will increase an additional 30% and there will be a
small bias current into the higher of the two input pins,
of 4μA or less. See the Typical Performance curve “Input
Current vs Differential Input Voltage.”
Thepropagationdelaydoesnotincreasesignificantlywhen
driven with large differential voltages. However, with low
levels of overdrive, an apparent increase may be seen with
large source resistances due to an RC delay caused by the
2pF typical input capacitance.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
High Speed Design Considerations
Although both V pins are electrically shorted internal to
CC
the LT1721, they must be shorted together externally as
well in order for both to function as shields. The same is
true for the two GND pins.
Application of high speed comparators is often plagued
by oscillations. The LT1720/LT1721 have 4mV of internal
hysteresis, which will prevent oscillations as long as
parasitic output to input feedback is kept below 4mV.
However, with the 2V/ns slew rate of the LT1720/LT1721
outputs, a4mVstepcanbecreatedata100Ωinputsource
with only 0.02pF of output to input coupling. The pinouts
of the LT1720/LT1721 have been arranged to minimize
problems by placing the most sensitive inputs (invert-
ing) away from the outputs, shielded by the power rails.
The input and output traces of the circuit board should
also be separated, and the requisite level of isolation is
readily achieved if a topside ground plane runs between
the outputs and the inputs. For multilayer boards where
the ground plane is internal, a topside ground or supply
trace should be run between the inputs and outputs, as
illustrated in Figure 1.
The supply bypass should include an adjacent 10nF ce-
ramic capacitor and a 2.2μF tantalum capacitor no farther
than 5cm away; use more capacitance if driving more
than 4mA loads. To prevent oscillations, it is helpful to
balance the impedance at the inverting and noninverting
inputs; source impedances should be kept low, preferably
1kΩ or less.
The outputs of the LT1720/LT1721 are capable of very
high slew rates. To prevent overshoot, ringing and other
problems with transmission line effects, keep the output
traces shorter than 10cm, or be sure to terminate the lines
to maintain signal integrity. The LT1720/LT1721 can drive

impedance traces can be driven with series termination

makes them easier to use than many other comparable
speed comparators.

The LT1720/LT1721 comparators can be used in high
speed applications where Emitter-Coupled Logic (ECL) is
deployed. To interface the outputs of the LT1720/LT1721
to ECL logic inputs, standard TTL/CMOS to ECL level
translators such as the 10H124, 10H424 and 100124
can be used. These components come at a cost of a few
nanoseconds additional delay as well as supply currents
of 50mA or more, and are only available in quads. A faster,
simpler and lower power translator can be constructed

consists of a differential input stage, a gain stage with
hysteresis and a complementary common-emitter output
stage. All of the internal signal paths utilize low voltage
swings for high speed at low power.
Thebiasconditionsandsignalswingsintheoutputstages
are designed to turn their respective output transistors off
faster than on. This nearly eliminates the surge of current
from V to ground that occurs at transitions, keeping
CC
the power consumption low even with high output-toggle
frequencies.
The input stage topology maximizes the input dynamic
range available without requiring the power, complex-
ity and die area of two complete input stages such as
are found in rail-to-rail input comparators. With a 2.7V
supply, the LT1720/LT1721 still have a respectable 1.6V
of input common mode range. The differential input volt-
age range is rail-to-rail, without the large input currents
found in competing devices. The input stage also features
phase reversal protection to prevent false outputs when
the inputs are driven below the –100mV common mode
voltage limit.
The low surge current is what keeps the power consump-
tion low at high output-toggle frequencies. The frequency
dependence of the supply current is shown in the Typical
Performance Characteristics. Just 20pF of capacitive load
on the output more than triples the frequency dependent
rise.Theslopeoftheno-loadcurveisjust32μA/MHz.With
a 5V supply, this current is the equivalent of charging and
discharging just 6.5pF. The slope of the 20pF load curve is
133μA/MHz, an addition of 101μA/MHz, or 20μA/MHz-V,
units that are equivalent to picoFarads.
Theinternalhysteresisisimplementedbypositive,nonlin-
ear feedback around a second gain stage. Until this point,
the signal path has been entirely differential. The signal
path is then split into two drive signals for the upper and
lower output transistors. The output transistors are con-

The LT1720/LT1721 dynamic current can be estimated
by adding the external capacitive loading to an internal
equivalent capacitance of 5pF to 15pF, multiplied by the
toggle frequency and the supply voltage. Because the
capacitance of routing traces can easily approach these
values, the dynamic current is dominated by the load in
most circuits.

capacitance of the input nodes. If the 2pF typical input
nodes are driven, the LT1720/LT1721 will respond.
The output speed is constrained by two mechanisms,
the first of which is the slew currents available from the
output transistors. To maintain low power quiescent op-
eration, the LT1720/LT1721 output transistors are sized
to deliver 25mA to 45mA typical slew currents. This is
sufficient to drive small capacitive loads and logic gate
inputs at extremely high speeds. But the slew rate will
slow dramatically with heavy capacitive loads. Because
The internal speed limits manifest themselves as disper-
sion. All comparators have some degree of dispersion,
defined as a change in propagation delay versus input
overdrive. The propagation delay of the LT1720/LT1721
will vary with overdrive, from a typical of 4.5ns at 20mV
overdrive to 7ns at 5mV overdrive (typical). The LT1720/
LT1721’s primary source of dispersion is the hysteresis
stage. As a change of polarity arrives at the gain stage,
the positive feedback of the hysteresis stage subtracts
from the overdrive available. Only when enough time has
elapsed for a signal to propagate forward through the gain
stage,backwardsthroughthehysteresisstageandforward
through the gain stage again, will the output stage receive
the same level of overdrive that it would have received in
the absence of hysteresis.

output voltage is halfway between the supplies, the fixed
slew current actually makes the LT1720/LT1721 faster at
3V than 5V with 20mV of input overdrive.
Another manifestation of this output speed limit is skew,
the difference between t
of the LT1720/LT1721 vary with the process variations of
the PNP and NPN transistors, for rising edges and falling
edges respectively. The typical 0.5ns skew can have either
polarity, rising edge or falling edge faster. Again, the skew

The skews of comparators in a single package are corre-

With 5mV of overdrive, the LT1720/LT1721 are faster with
a 5V supply than with a 3V supply, the opposite of what
is true with 20mV overdrive. This is due to the internal
speed limit, because the gain stage is faster at 5V than 3V
due primarily to the reduced junction capacitances with
higher reverse voltage bias.

the two comparators of a single package are not identical,
the differential timing will degrade further.
Inmanyapplications, asshowninthefollowingexamples,
there is plenty of input overdrive. Even in applications
providing low levels of overdrive, the LT1720/LT1721

LT1720/LT1721
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The gain and hysteresis stage of the LT1720/LT1721 is
simple, short and high speed to help prevent parasitic
oscillations while adding minimum dispersion. This
internal “self-latch” can be usefully exploited in many
applications because it occurs early in the signal chain, in
a low power, fully differential stage. It is therefore highly
immune to disturbances from other parts of the circuit,
either in the same comparator, on the supply lines, or from
the other comparator(s) in the same package. Once a high
speed signal trips the hysteresis, the output will respond,
after a fixed propagation delay, without regard to these
externalinfluencesthatcancausetroubleinnonhysteretic
comparators.
As the power is applied, the circuit remains off until the
LT1720/LT1721 bias circuits activate, at a typical V of
CC
2V to 2.2V (25°C), at which point the desired frequency
output is generated.
The output duty cycle for this circuit is roughly 50%, but
it is affected by resistor tolerances and, to a lesser extent,
by comparator offsets and timings. If a 50% duty cycle is
required, the circuit of Figure 7 creates a pair of comple-
mentaryoutputswithaforced50%dutycycle. Crystalsare

Changing the noninverting reference level can therefore

whereas C2 creates a complementary output by compar-
ing the same two nodes with the opposite input polarity.
A1 compares band-limited versions of the outputs and
biases C1’s negative input. C1’s only degree of freedom to
respond is variation of pulse width; hence the outputs are
forced to 50% duty cycle. Again, the circuit operates from
2.7V to 6V, and the skew between the edges of the two
outputs are shown in Figure 8. There is a slight duty cycle
dependence on comparator loading, so equal capacitive
andresistiveloadingshouldbeusedincriticalapplications.
This circuit works well because of the two matched delays
and rail-to-rail style outputs of the LT1720.

Test Circuit
The input trip points are tested using the circuit shown in
the Test Circuits section that precedes this Applications
Information section. The test circuit uses a 1kHz triangle
wave to repeatedly trip the comparator being tested. The
LT1720/LT1721 output is used to trigger switched capaci-
tor sampling of the triangle wave, with a sampler for each
direction. Because the triangle wave is attenuated 1000:1
and fed to the LT1720/LT1721’s differential input, the
sampled voltages are therefore 1000 times the input trip
voltages. The hysteresis and offset are computed from
the trip points as shown.

The circuit in Figure 9 shows a crystal oscillator circuit
that generates two nonoverlapping clocks by making full
use of the two independent comparators of the LT1720.
C1 oscillates as before, but with a lower reference level,
C2’s output will toggle at different times. The resistors set

With the values shown, each output has a 44% high and
56% low duty cycle, sufficient to allow 2ns between the
high pulses. Figure 10 shows the two outputs.

LT1720/LT1721
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Timing Skews
is a delay detector which will output a pulse when signals
X and Y are out of sync (specifically, when X is high and
Y is low). Note that the addition of an identical circuit to
detect the opposite situation (X low and Y high) allows
for full skew detection.
For a number of reasons, the LT1720/LT1721’s superior
timing specifications make them an excellent choice for
applications requiring accurate differential timing skew.
The comparators in a single package are inherently well
matched,withjust300psΔt typical.Monolithicconstruc-
Comparators U1A and U1B clean up the incoming signals
and render the circuit less sensitive to input levels and
slew rates. The resistive divider network provides level
shifting for the downstream comparator’s common mode
input range, as well as offset to keep the output low except
during a decisive event. When the upstream comparator’s
outputscanovercometheresistivelygeneratedoffset(and
hysteresis), comparator U1C performs a Boolean “X*_Y”
function and produces an output pulse (see Figure 13).
The circuit will give full output response with input delays
down to 3ns and partial output response with input delays
down to 1.8ns. Capacitor C1 helps ensure that an imbal-
ance of parasitic capacitances in the layout will not cause
common mode excursions to result in differential mode
PD
tion keeps the delays well matched vs supply voltage and
temperature.Crosstalkbetweenthecomparators,usuallya
disadvantage in monolithic duals and quads, has minimal
effect on the LT1720/LT1721 timing due to the internal
hysteresis, as described in the Speed Limits section.
The circuits of Figure 11 show basic building blocks for
differentialtimingskews.The2.5kresistanceinteractswith
the 2pF typical input capacitance to create at least 4ns

or in high speed instrumentation. The circuit in Figure 12

for the problem in the impedance balance (R5 || R6 = R7) at the inputs of U1C. Increasing the
offset by lowering R5 will help reject false outputs, but R7 should also be lowered to maintain
impedance balance. For ease of design and parasitic matching, R7 can be replaced by two parallel
resistors equal to R5 and R6.

The fourth comparator of the quad LT1721 can be put to
work as a logarithmic pulse stretcher. This simple circuit
can help tremendously if you don’t have a fast enough
oscilloscope (or control circuit) to easily capture 3ns

For example, an 8ns input pulse gives a 1.67μs output
pulse. Doubling the input pulse to 16ns lengthens the
output pulse by 0.37μs. Doubling the input pulse again
to 32ns adds another 0.37μs to the output pulse, and so
on. The rate of 0.37μs per octave falls out of the above
equation as:

a 540ns time constant, keeping the comparator on until
the decay overrides the 10mV offset across R3 minus
hysteresis. Because of this exponential decay, the output
pulse width will be proportional to the logarithm of the
input pulse width. It is important to bypass the circuit’s

precisely where it’s hardest to get. The jitter is due to a

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Coincidence Detector
A logic AND gate could instead be used, but would add
considerably more delay than the 300ps contributed by
this discrete stage.
High speed comparators are especially suited for interfac-
ing pulse-output transducers, such as particle detectors,
to logic circuitry. The matched delays of a monolithic dual
are well suited for those cases where the coincidence of
two pulses needs to be detected. The circuit of Figure 19
is a coincidence detector that uses an LT1720 and discrete
components as a fast AND gate.
This circuit can detect coincident pulses as narrow as 3ns.
For narrower pulses, the output will degrade gracefully,
responding, but with narrow pulses that don’t rise all the
way to “high” before starting to fall. The decision delay is
4.5ns with input signals 50mV or more above the refer-
ence level. This circuit creates a TTL compatible output
but it can typically drive CMOS as well.
Thereferencelevelissetto1V, anarbitrarythreshold. Only
when both input signals exceed this will a coincidence
be detected. The Schottky diodes from the comparator
outputs to the base of the MRF-501 form the AND gate,
while the other two Schottkys provide for fast turn-off.
For a more detailed description of the operation of this
circuit, see Application Note 75, pages 10 and 11.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
Pulse Stretcher
capacitor C now begins charging through R and, at the
end of 100ns, C2 resets low. The output of C1 also goes
low, latching both outputs low. A new pulse at the input
of C1 can now restart the process. Timing capacitor C can
be increased without limit for longer output pulses.
For detecting short pulses from a single sensor, a pulse
stretcher is often required. The circuit of Figure 20 acts as
a one-shot, stretching the width of an incoming pulse to a
consistent100ns.Unlikealogicone-shot,thisLT1720-based
circuit requires only 100pV-s of stimulus to trigger.
This circuit has an ultimate sensitivity of better than
14mV with 5ns to 10ns input pulses. It can even detect
an avalanche generated test pulse of just 1ns duration
The circuit works as follows: Comparator C1 functions as
athresholddetector,whereascomparatorC2isconfigured
as a one-shot. The first comparator is prebiased with a
threshold of 8mV to overcome comparator and system
offsets and establish a low output in the absence of an
input signal. An input pulse sends the output of C1 high,
which in turn latches C2’s output high. The output of C2
is fed back to the input of the first comparator, causing
regeneration and latching both outputs high. Timing
