Rail-to-rail comparator is small enough for wearable devices

The footprint that is less than 1.0mm2,  says the company.  The chip-scale package (CSP) measures 0.8 x 1.2 x 0.52mm, suitable for use where space is a premium, such as smartwatches, as well as smartphones, IoT devices, digital cameras, and portable test equipment.

The device operates from a supply voltage as low as 1.8V. This allows it to be used in systems powered from a single cell as well as those designed to operate from low voltages. Typical operating current of 14µA also helps to minimise drain on the battery. A typical propagation delay of 300ns ensures rapid response to fast-changing analogue signals. ESD tolerance is 2kV HBM / 200V MM.
