Toshiba Releases High-Speed Response, Full Input/Output Range CMOS Dual Comparator Suitable for Overcurrent Detection in Industrial Equipment

KAWASAKI, Japan–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (“Toshiba”) has launched a CMOS dual comparator, “TC75W71FU.” It features a high-speed response and a full input/output range (Rail to Rail), suiting it for use in overcurrent detection in industrial equipment[1]. Shipments start today.

Today’s industrial equipment uses large currents in motor drives and power circuits. This brings with it the risk of sudden overcurrent, which can damage equipment, shut down production line, and even reduce safety; its rapid detection and protection from it are essential. In the constant search for higher efficiency and product miniaturization, the range of current and voltages that circuits can support has narrowed, and even slight overcurrent can impose a significant load on the circuit. This increases the need for faster and more precise overcurrent detection technologies.

The new product offers a faster propagation delay than the current TC75W56FU, with a maximum of 45ns for low-to-high transitions and 30ns for high-to-low transitions[2]. This enables immediate equipment shutdown in overcurrent, enhancing operational safety.

The input/output voltage range supports the full range—operation from minimum (GND) to maximum (Vcc) supply voltage—making design easier. The minimum operating supply voltage, 1.8V, supports low-voltage operation. Since the new comparator also features a push-pull output[3], signal rise and fall times are fast, no external pull-up resistor is required, and a stable voltage level can be maintained.

In addition to TC75W71FU, TC75W72FU, which features added hysteresis for enhanced noise immunity, and TC75W73FU[4], which offers hysteresis and an open-drain output[5] capable of sending signals to voltage domains different from the comparator’s supply, are scheduled to start mass production in February 2026.

Toshiba will continue to develop comparators that contribute to improved safety and reliability of industrial equipment, and to expand the product lineup to meet a wide range of customer needs.

Notes:

[1]

Industrial robots, generators, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), transformers, etc.

[2]

Propagation delay time of existing product TC75W56FU: Under measurement conditions of VDD=3V, low to high is typically 550ns, high to low is typically 250ns.

[3]

Push-pull output: a configuration in which the output circuit includes two transistors, one at the top of the circuit, the other on the bottom, actively driving both the high and low levels.

[4]

Propagation delay time is only 30ns (high to low) under measurement conditions of VDD=3.3V.

[5]

Open-drain output: a configuration in which the output circuit includes only the lower transistor, actively driving the low level.

Applications

  • Industrial equipment (Industrial robots, UPS, photovoltaic generators, power supply, etc.)
  • Consumer equipment (home appliances, power supplies, etc.)

Features

  • Full I/O range
  • Low voltage drive: 1.8V
  • High-speed response: tPLH 45ns (max), tPHL 30ns (max) (VDD=3.3V)

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Key Facts The central bank’s policymaking panel voted this week to lower interest rates, which have sat between 4.25% and 4.5% since December, to a new range of 4% and 4.25%. How Will Lower Interest Rates Impact Mortgage Rates? Mortgage rates tend to fall before and during a period of interest rate cuts: The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.35% from 6.5% last week, the lowest level since October 2024, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported. Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Similarly, mortgage rates spiked around 7% as interest rates were hiked in 2022 and 2023, though mortgage rates appeared to react within weeks of the Fed opting to cut or raise rates. How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…
