Chip Identity?

[felto]

Does anyone know what this chip is?
I am trying to find the schematics of it but
cannot find anything on it.
It looks like a 555 timer with 8 pins to it.
But it doesnt say anything like that.

Does anyone know a website or a databook
that they may have and can look up the schematics
for me. Here is the number TA75393AP
Remember it looks exactly like the 555 timer
with 8 pins to it.
Thanks for your help

Dual Bipolar Comparator. Cross reference says it is close or the same as:
TA75393 - NJM2903 LM293
LM393 LM293
LM393 LM293/A
LM393/A LM293/A
LM393/A LM393 LM293/A
LM393/A MB47393 BA10393 LA6393 KIA393 - LM393

The most common equivalent is the LM393. Here is the pin out.

Thanks MP for that info.

Where did you find that info
I went to embeddedlinks.com (chipdir)
and couldnt find anything there.

Is there another website that you know
about?

Thanks again

Hi Felto,
There are lots of links on Google. Most of them list the TA75393 with the LM393 in their title.

Here is the Datasheet.

Thanks John,
I should have looked at the details, they are not the same.
Toshiba added an extra output transistor to their TA75393 copy of National's LM393, resulting in a guaranteed output sink current minimum of 65mA, compared to the LM393's minimum of only 6mA.
Therefore the TA75393 has a supply current maximum of 8mA, compared to the LM393's maximum of only 1.0mA.

A circuit requiring the high drive current from a TA75393 certainly won't work with an LM393 unless you add your own output transistor (and base current feed for it) and switch the input polarities around. ;D

So if I wanted to order the TA75393AP chip
where would I get it?

Toshiba probably has a website. Have you looked for it?

felto and others:
Here are some links from a site that primarily is geared toward arcade devices. They have some pretty good general info, though....

Component Marking Codes:
http://www.ionpool.net/arcade/tech/component_markings/component_codes.html

Lots of IC data includes pin outs and logic tables (forgive the name of the page):

A pretty good cross ref, but short:

Transistor database. More of a description. Not really a cross:

Perhaps we can add these to our links on the site.
