GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553 are single-supply,
high speed comparators fabricated on Analog Devices, Inc.,
proprietary XFCB process. The devices feature a 500 ps
propagation delay with less than 125 ps overdrive dispersion.
Overdrive dispersion, a measure of the difference in propagation
delay under differing overdrive conditions, is a particularly
important characteristic of high speed comparators. A separate
programmable hysteresis pin is available on the ADCMP552.
APPLICATIONS
Automatic test equipment
High speed instrumentation
Scope and logic analyzer front ends
Window comparators
High speed line receivers
Threshold detection
Peak detection
High speed triggers
Patient diagnostics
Disk drive read channel detection
Hand-held test instruments
Zero crossing detectors
Line receivers and signal restoration
Clock drivers
A differential input stage permits consistent propagation delay
with a common-mode range from −0.2 V to VCCI − 2.0 V. Outputs
are complementary digital signals and are fully compatible with
PECL and 3.3 V LVPECL logic families. The outputs provide
sufficient drive current to directly drive transmission lines
terminated in 50 Ω to VCCO − 2 V. A latch input is included
and permits tracking, track-and-hold, or sample-and-hold
modes of operation. The latch input pins contain internal pullups that set the latch in tracking mode when left open.
The ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553 are specified over
the −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range. The ADCMP551
is available in a 16-lead QSOP package; the ADCMP552 is available
in a 20-lead QSOP package; and the ADCMP553 is available in
an 8-lead MSOP package.

Equivalent input rise time bandwidth assumes a first order input response and is calculated by the following formula: BWEQ = .22/ (trCOMP2 − trIN2),
where trIN is the 20/80 input transition time applied to the comparator and trCOMP is the effective transition time as digitized by the comparator input.

ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The comparators in the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553
are very high speed devices. Consequently, high speed design
techniques must be employed to achieve the best performance.
The most critical aspect of any ADCMP551/ADCMP552/
ADCMP553 design is the use of a low impedance ground plane.
A ground plane, as part of a multilayer board, is recommended
for proper high speed performance. Using a continuous conductive
plane over the surface of the circuit board can create this, allowing
breaks in the plane only for necessary signal paths. The ground
plane provides a low inductance ground, eliminating any potential
differences at different ground points throughout the circuit
board caused by ground bounce. A proper ground plane also
minimizes the effects of stray capacitance on the circuit board.
It is also important to provide bypass capacitors for the power
supply in a high speed application. A 1 μF electrolytic bypass
capacitor should be placed within 0.5 inches of each power
supply pin to ground. These capacitors reduce any potential
voltage ripples from the power supply. In addition, a 10 nF ceramic
capacitor should be placed as close to the power supply pins as
possible on the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553 to ground.
These capacitors act as a charge reservoir for the device during
high frequency switching.
The LATCH ENABLE input is active low (latched). If the latching
function is not used, the LATCH ENABLE input pins may be
left open. The internal pull-ups on the latch pins set the latch to
transparent mode. If the latch is to be used, valid PECL voltages
are required on the inputs for proper operation. The PECL
voltages should be referenced to VCCI.
Occasionally, one of the two comparator stages within the
ADCMP551/ADCMP552 is not used. The inputs of the unused
comparator should not be allowed to float. The high internal
gain may cause the output to oscillate (possibly affecting the
comparator that is being used) unless the output is forced into a
fixed state. This is easily accomplished by ensuring that the two
inputs are at least one diode drop apart, while also appropriately
connecting the LATCH ENABLE and LATCH ENABLE inputs
as described previously.
The best performance is achieved with the use of proper PECL
terminations. The open-emitter outputs of the ADCMP551/
ADCMP552/ADCMP553 are designed to be terminated through
50 Ω resistors to VCCO − 2.0 V or any other equivalent PECL
termination. If high speed PECL signals must be routed more
than a centimeter, microstrip or stripline techniques may be
required to ensure proper transition times and prevent output
ringing.
CLOCK TIMING RECOVERY
Comparators are often used in digital systems to recover clock
timing signals. High speed square waves transmitted over a distance, even tens of centimeters, can become distorted due to stray
capacitance and inductance. Poor layout or improper termination
can also cause reflections on the transmission line, further distorting the signal waveform. A high speed comparator can be
used to recover the distorted waveform while maintaining a
minimum of delay.
OPTIMIZING HIGH SPEED PERFORMANCE
As with any high speed comparator amplifier, proper design and
layout techniques should be used to ensure optimal performance
from the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553. The performance
limits of high speed circuitry can easily be a result of stray
capacitance, improper ground impedance, or other layout issues.
Minimizing resistance from source to the input is an important
consideration in maximizing the high speed operation of the
ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553. Source resistance in
combination with equivalent input capacitance can cause a
lagged response at the input, thus delaying the output. The input
capacitance of the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553, in
combination with stray capacitance from an input pin to ground,
could result in several picofarads of equivalent capacitance. A
combination of 3 kΩ source resistance and 5 pF input capacitance
yields a time constant of 15 ns, which is significantly slower than
the 500 ps capability of the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553.
Source impedances should be significantly less than 100 Ω for
best performance.
Sockets should be avoided due to stray capacitance and inductance.
If proper high speed techniques are used, the ADCMP551/
ADCMP552/ADCMP553 should be free from oscillation when
the comparator input signal passes through the switching
threshold.
COMPARATOR PROPAGATION DELAY DISPERSION
The ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553 has been
specifically designed to reduce propagation delay dispersion
over an input overdrive range of 20 mV to 1 V. Propagation
delay overdrive dispersion is the change in propagation delay
that results from a change in the degree of overdrive (how far
the switching point is exceeded by the input). The overall result
is a higher degree of timing accuracy since the ADCMP551/
ADCMP552/ADCMP553 is far less sensitive to input variations
than most comparator designs.

ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553
Data Sheet
Propagation delay dispersion is an important specification in
critical timing applications such as ATE, bench instruments, and
nuclear instrumentation. Overdrive dispersion is defined as the
variation in propagation delay as the input overdrive conditions
are changed (Figure 18). For the ADCMP551/ADCMP552/
ADCMP553, overdrive dispersion is typically 125 ps as the
overdrive is changed from 20 mV to 1 V. This specification
applies for both positive and negative overdrive since the
ADCMP551/ADCMP552/ADCMP553 has equal delays for
positive- and negative-going inputs.
A current source can also be used with the HYS pin. The
relationship between the current applied to the HYS pin and the
resulting hysteresis is shown in Figure 16.

COMPARATOR HYSTERESIS
The addition of hysteresis to a comparator is often useful in a
noisy environment or where it is not desirable for the comparator
to toggle between states when the input signal is at the switching
threshold. The transfer function for a comparator with hysteresis is
shown in Figure 19. If the input voltage approaches the threshold
from the negative direction, the comparator switches from a 0
to a 1 when the input crosses +VH/2. The new switching threshold
becomes −VH/2. The comparator remains in a 1 state until the
−VH/2 threshold is crossed coming from the positive direction.
In this manner, noise centered on 0 V input does not cause the
comparator to switch states unless it exceeds the region bounded
by ±VH/2.
Positive feedback from the output to the input is often used to
produce hysteresis in a comparator (see Figure 23). The major
problem with this approach is that the amount of hysteresis
varies with the output logic levels, resulting in a hysteresis that
is not symmetrical around zero.
In the ADCMP552, hysteresis is generated through the
programmable hysteresis pin. A resistor from the HYS pin to
VCCI creates a current into the part that is used to generate
hysteresis. Hysteresis generated in this manner is independent
of output swing and is symmetrical around the trip point. The
hysteresis versus resistance curve is shown in Figure 20.

MINIMUM INPUT SLEW RATE REQUIREMENT
As for all high speed comparators, a minimum slew rate must
be met to ensure that the device does not oscillate when the
input crosses the threshold. This oscillation is due in part to the
high input bandwidth of the comparator and the parasitics of
the package. Analog Devices recommends a slew rate of 1 V/μs
or faster to ensure a clean output transition. If slew rates less
than 1 V/μs are used, hysteresis should be added to reduce the
oscillation.
