Key Featrues

Ultra-Fast Propagation Delay (4.5ns): The MAX961–MAX964/MAX997/MAX999 comparators offer an ultra-fast propagation delay of 4.5ns with a 5mV overdrive, enabling rapid signal processing and decision-making in high-speed applications such as GPS receivers and threshold detectors. This feature significantly enhances system responsiveness and performance in time-critical scenarios.
Beyond-the-Rails Input Voltage Range: The comparators support an input common-mode range that extends 100mV beyond the supply rails, allowing for greater flexibility in signal handling. This feature ensures reliable operation in systems where input signals may exceed the supply voltage, making it ideal for portable battery-powered systems and single 3V/5V systems.
Low Supply Current (5mA): With a low supply current of 5mA per comparator, the MAX997/MAX999 are optimized for power efficiency, making them suitable for energy-sensitive applications like portable devices. This feature helps extend battery life and reduces overall power consumption in the system.
Internal Hysteresis (3.5mV): The built-in 3.5mV hysteresis ensures clean switching and minimizes the risk of output oscillation near the threshold voltage. This feature improves noise immunity and stability, making the comparators ideal for applications like zero-crossing detectors and threshold discriminators.
Compact Space-Saving Packages: Available in small form factors such as 5-pin SOT23, 8-pin µMAX, and 16-pin QSOP, these comparators are designed for space-constrained applications. This feature allows for high-density PCB designs, making them suitable for compact and portable systems.
TTL/CMOS-Compatible Outputs: The comparators feature TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs, ensuring seamless integration with a wide range of digital logic systems. This versatility enhances their usability in mixed-signal applications, such as high-speed sampling circuits and line receivers.
