6.4.3.2 TLV322x Open Drain Output

The TLV322x features an open-drain (also commonly called open collector) sinking-only output stage enabling the output logic levels to be pulled up to an external voltage from 0V up to 5.5V, independent of the comparator supply voltage (V+). The open-drain output allows logical OR'ing of multiple open drain outputs and logic level translation.

TI recommends setting the pull-up resistor current to between 100uA and 1mA. Lower value pull-up resistor values can help increase the rising edge rise-time, but at the expense of increasing VOL and higher power dissipation. The rise-time is dependent on the time constant of the total pull-up resistance and total load capacitance. Large value pull-up resistors (>1MΩ) creates an exponential rising edge due to the output RC time constant and increase the rise-time.

Directly shorting the output to a votlage source can result in thermal runaway and eventual device destruction. If output shorts are possible, a series current limiting resistor is recommended to limit the power dissipation.

Unused open drain outputs can be left floating, or can be tied to the V- pin if floating pins are not desired.
