Layout Considerations

The LMC7211-N is not an especially fast comparator, so high speed design practices are not required. The LMC7211-N is capable of operating with very high impedance inputs, so take precautions to reduce noise pickup with high impedance (∼ 100kΩ and greater) designs and in electrically noisy environments.

Keeping high value resistors close to the LMC7211-N and minimizing the size of the input nodes is a good practice. With multilayer designs, try to avoid long loops which can act as inductors (coils). Sensors that are not close to the comparator can need twisted pair or shielded connections to reduce noise.
