The LM339B and LM2901B devices are the next generation versions of the industry-standard LM339 and LM2901 comparator family. These next generation B-version comparators feature lower offset voltage, higher supply voltage capability, lower supply current, lower input bias current, lower propagation delay, and improved 2 kV ESD performance and input ruggedness through dedicated ESD clamps. The LM339B and LM2901B can drop-in replace the LM239, LM339 and LM2901, for both "A" and "V" grades.

All devices consist of four independent voltage comparators that are designed to operate from a single power supply over a wide range of voltages.
