Working Principles

The LM339AM/NOPB compares two input voltages and provides a digital output based on the comparison result. It operates by amplifying the voltage difference between the inputs and comparing it to a reference voltage. When the voltage at the non-inverting input is higher than the voltage at the inverting input, the output goes low (logic 0). Conversely, when the voltage at the non-inverting input is lower, the output goes high (logic 1).
