Single/Dual, +3V/+5V Dual-Speed Comparators with Auto-Standby
General Description
The MAX975/MAX977 single/dual comparators feature three different operating modes, and are optimized for +3V and +5V single-supply applications. The operating modes are as follows: high speed, high speed with auto-standby, and low power. Propagation delay is 28ns in high-speed mode, while supply current is only 250µA. Supply current is reduced to 3µA in low-power mode. The auto-standby feature allows the comparator to automatically change from low-power mode to highspeed mode upon receipt of an input signal. In the absence of an input signal, the comparator reverts back to low-power mode after an adjustable timeout period. The timeout period for the MAX975 to enter standby is set by a single capacitor. The dual MAX977 features independently adjustable timeout periods for each comparator using separate capacitors. The MAX975/MAX977’s inputs have a common-mode voltage range of -0.2V to (VCC - 1.2V). The differential input voltage range extends rail to rail. The outputs are capable of rail-to-rail operation without external pull-up circuitry, making these devices ideal for interface with CMOS/TTL logic. All inputs and outputs can tolerate a continuous short-circuit fault condition to either rail. The comparator’s internal hysteresis in high-speed mode ensures clean output switching, even with slow-moving input signals. The single MAX975 is available in 8-pin SO and 8-pin µMAX packages, while the dual MAX977 is available in 14-pin SO and 16-pin QSOP packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: The MAX975EUA is 100% production tested at TA = +25°C; all temperature specifications are guaranteed by design. Note 2: Inferred by CMRR. Either input can be driven to the absolute maximum limit without false output inversion, as long as the other input is within the specified common-mode input voltage range. Note 3: VOS is defined as the mean of trip points. The trip points are the extremities of the differential input voltage required to make the comparator output change state (Figure 1). Note 4: The difference between the upper and lower trip points is equal to the width of the input-referred hysteresis zone (Figure 1). Note 5: Guaranteed by design. The LP pin is sensitive to noise. If fall times larger than 10µs are expected, bypass LP to ground using a 0.1µF capacitor. Note 6: Propagation delay is guaranteed by design. For low-overdrive conditions, VOS is added to the overdrive. The following equation defines propagation-delay skew: tSKEW = tPD+ - tPD-.
