I would like to use a comparator so that it's output is either open drain (or collector) or it's pulled down to its negative rail (Let's say -5V for my application) I've looked at a couple of comparators, and they have +Vin, -Vin, and GND pins... but from looking at the datasheets it doesn't look like they can output their negative rail... am I right about this? if i am, then what's the point of the -Vin input?
I was looking at the LT1011

and the LM319
