The MCP6546UT-E/OTVAO is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component produced by Microchip Technology. It is a low-power, push-pull output comparator specifically designed for high-speed, low-voltage applications. Here is an overview of the key features offered by the MCP6546UT-E/OTVAO:
1. Single-Supply Operation: The MCP6546UT-E/OTVAO operates from a single voltage supply ranging between 2.0V and 5.5V. This allows it to be easily integrated into various low-power applications.
2. Push-Pull Output: The comparator features a push-pull output stage, enabling both sinking and sourcing of current. This characteristic makes it suitable for interfacing with logic gates, microcontrollers, and other devices.
3. Rail-to-Rail Inputs: With rail-to-rail input capability, the MCP6546UT-E/OTVAO accepts signals near the supply voltage rails (VDD and VSS). This ensures accurate comparisons even when the input voltage is close to the supply voltage limits.
4. 50 ns Response Time: The MCP6546UT-E/OTVAO offers a fast response time of 50 ns, making it suitable for high-speed applications that require quick decision-making or signal amplification
