Their 25ns propagation delay (with 10mV input overdrive) is achieved with a power consumption of only 1.75mW per comparator. The wide input common-mode range extends from 200mV below ground to within 1.5V of the positive supply rail. The MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109 outputs are TTLcompatible, requiring no external pullup circuitry. These easy-to-use comparators incorporate internal hysteresis to ensure clean output switching even when the devices are driven by a slow-moving input signal. The MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109 are higher-speed, lower-power, lower-cost upgrades to industry-standard comparators MAX907/MAX908/MAX909. The MAX9109 features an output latch but does not have complementary outputs.

See Figure 1. Inferred from the CMRR test. Note that a correct logic result is obtained at the output, provided that at least one input is within the VCMR limits. Note also that either or both inputs can be driven to the upper or lower absolute maximum limit without damage to the part. Tested over the full-input voltage range (VCMR). Differential Propagation Delay is specified as the difference between any two channels in the MAX9107/MAX9108 (both outputs making either a low-to-high or a high-to-low transition). Propagation Delay Skew is specified as the difference between any single channel’s output low-to-high transition (tPD+) and high-to-low transition (tPD-). Latch specifications apply to MAX9109 only.

The MAX9107/MAX9108/ MAX9109 eliminate this problem by incorporating an internal hysteresis of 2mV. When the two comparator input voltages are equal, hysteresis effectively causes one comparator input voltage to move quickly past the other, thus taking the input out of the region where oscillation occurs. Standard comparators require that hysteresis be added through the use of external resistors. The MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109’s fixed internal hysteresis eliminates these resistors. To increase hysteresis and noise margin even more, add positive feedback with two resistors as a voltage divider from the output to the noninverting input. Adding hysteresis to a comparator creates two trip points: one for the input voltage rising and one for the 6 FUNCTION MAX9108 Channel A Output Channel B Output Channel C Output Channel D Inverting Input Ground Latch Enable. The latch is transparent when LE is low. No Connection. Not internally connected. input voltage falling (Figure 1). The difference between these two input-referred trip points is the hysteresis. The average of the trip points is the offset voltage. Figure 1 illustrates the case where IN- is fixed and IN+ is varied. If the inputs were reversed, the figure would look the same, except the output would be inverted. The MAX9109 includes an internal latch, allowing the result of a comparison to be stored. If LE is low, the latch is transparent (i.e., the comparator operates as though the latch is not present). The state of the comparator output is latched when LE is high (Figure 2). Applications Information Circuit Layout Because of the MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109’s high gain bandwidth, special precautions must be taken to realize the full high-speed capability. A printed circuit board with a good, low-inductance ground plane is mandatory.

Short lead lengths on the inputs and outputs are also essential to avoid unwanted parasitic feedback around the comparators. Solder the device directly to the printed circuit board instead of using a socket. 10pF 1MΩ +5V Overdriving the Inputs The inputs to the MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109 may be driven to the voltage limits given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings.
