MAX516ACWG+

Overview

The MAX516ACWG+ is a quad analog comparator manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand, housed in a 24-pin SOIC surface-mount package. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 4.75 V to 16.5 V with a typical operating current of 10 mA. The device features CMOS and TTL compatible outputs and delivers an 800 ns response time. It functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent general-purpose comparators within a single integrated circuit
• Provides flexible output compatibility supporting both CMOS and TTL logic families
• Operates efficiently with low power consumption characteristics suitable for battery applications

Applications

• General purpose signal comparison circuits
• Voltage monitoring systems
• Threshold detection applications

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to limited availability status. Confirm RoHS compliance documentation matches specific manufacturing lot requirements. Ensure packaging integrity remains intact during handling to prevent damage to the SOIC-24 leads. Validate that the ordering suffix corresponds exactly to the reel configuration if applicable.

Selection Notes

Select this component when multiple independent comparison functions are required in a compact footprint. Consider the 800 ns propagation delay for timing-sensitive designs. Verify that the input common-mode voltage range aligns with the source signals. Ensure the supply voltage stays within the specified 4.75 V to 16.5 V limits for reliable operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX516A series of analog comparators designed for versatile signal processing tasks. It shares the SOIC-24 package form factor with other Maxim Integrated interface and data converter components, facilitating standardized board layout practices across mixed-signal designs.
