The recommended operating voltage range for the TLC3702CD is 4.5V to 16V.
To ensure proper biasing, connect the VCC pin to a stable voltage source, and decouple it with a 0.1uF capacitor to ground. Also, connect the VREF pin to a stable voltage reference, such as a voltage divider or a voltage regulator.
The maximum output current of the TLC3702CD is 20mA per channel.
To protect the TLC3702CD from overvoltage and ESD, use a voltage clamp or a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode on the input pins, and ensure that the device is handled and stored in an ESD-safe environment.
Yes, the TLC3702CD can be used as a comparator or an amplifier, depending on the application. As a comparator, it can be used to compare two input voltages and output a digital signal. As an amplifier, it can be used to amplify small input signals.
