Key Featrues

High-Speed Operation with 120ns Propagation Delay: The comparators achieve a fast 120ns propagation delay, making them suitable for high-speed applications such as mobile communications and digital-line receivers, where quick signal processing is critical for performance.
Micropower Consumption at 48µA Quiescent Current: With a quiescent supply current of just 48µA per comparator, these devices are ideal for portable battery-powered systems, significantly enhancing energy efficiency and extending battery life.
Rail-to-Rail Input and Output Operation: The comparators support rail-to-rail input and output, allowing them to handle signals close to the supply rails. This feature ensures accurate signal detection and compatibility with low-voltage systems, expanding their use cases in threshold detectors and zero-crossing detectors.
Wide Operating Voltage Range (2.5V to 5.5V): The ability to operate from +2.5V to +5.5V single-supply or ±1.25V to ±2.75V dual-supply makes these comparators versatile for both 3V and 5V systems, providing flexibility in various design scenarios.
Phase Reversal Immunity for Overdriven Inputs: The comparators are designed to avoid phase reversal even when inputs are overdriven, ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions and improving robustness in applications like window comparators and level translators.

Applications

Digital-Line Receiver: The MAX987/MAX988/MAX991/MAX992/MAX995/MAX996 comparators are ideal for digital-line receiver applications, where high-speed, low-voltage, and rail-to-rail operation are critical. Their micropower consumption and fast propagation delay make them suitable for receiving and processing digital signals in communication systems, ensuring reliable data transmission in both 3V and 5V environments.
Portable Battery-Powered Systems: These comparators are perfect for portable battery-powered systems due to their low quiescent current (48µA) and wide operating voltage range (2.5V to 5.5V). Their rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, combined with micropower operation, make them ideal for extending battery life in portable devices such as handheld meters, medical devices, and consumer electronics.
Threshold Detector: The MAX987/MAX988/MAX991/MAX992/MAX995/MAX996 comparators excel as threshold detectors in applications requiring precise voltage level detection. Their rail-to-rail input capability and fast response time (120ns propagation delay) ensure accurate detection of signal thresholds, making them suitable for use in power management, safety monitoring, and control systems.
Zero-Crossing Detector: These comparators are well-suited for zero-crossing detection in AC signal processing applications. Their ability to operate with dual supplies (±1.25V to ±2.75V) and rail-to-rail inputs ensures accurate detection of zero-crossing points in waveforms, making them ideal for use in motor control, lighting systems, and power inverters.
