Häufig gestellte Fragen (FAQ) |ROHM Semiconductor

What is the meaning of each electrical characteristics parameter?
- For the meaning of each electrical characteristics parameter, please refer to the datasheet.

What is the recommended method and precautions for handling unused pins?
- It is recommended to supply a voltage to the input pin so that the logic of the output is fixed. When determining output logic High or Low, set it arbitrarily on the assumption it may be shorted with the output peripheral circuit.

Is normal operation possible if either the - or +input pin or both are out of the common mode input voltage range?
- Operation outside of the common mode input voltage range is outside of the guaranteed electrical characteristics. In the case of an open collector comparator, as long as the supplied voltage at one of the input pins is within the common mode input range the comparator will operate normally. However, when the voltage supplied to both input terminals falls out of the common mode input range the output will be fixed at Low. But with the BA10393/BA10339, if an input voltage higher than the supply voltage is input there is a possibility of destruction due to breakdown voltage.

Please let me know where the reference data of the common mode input voltage range is listed in the datasheet for opamps.
- Please verify the graph of the Input Offset Voltage vs Common Mode Input Voltage Characteristics included in the datasheet.
  The point at which the input offset voltage suddenly changes becomes the actual value for the common mode input voltage range.

Is the guaranteed range the same for products where the operating supply voltage range and absolute maximum ratings match?
- Comparators whose operating supply voltage range and absolute maximum rating values are the same ensure that the absolute maximum ratings correspond to the operating supply voltage range

Are there any concerns when supplying a reverse voltage to the supply and ground pins?
- When reverse voltage is supplied to the supply and ground pins, current flows through the electrostatic protection diodes between the VCC (VDD) and VEE (VSS) pins, which can lead to current degradation and, ultimately, destruction.
