MAX9013EUA+T

Overview

The MAX9013EUA+T is a single-channel, high-speed analog comparator manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (Maxim Integrated). It operates from a single 4.5V to 5.5V power supply and features precision differential inputs with TTL-compatible complementary outputs. The device includes a latch enable input for holding the output state. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 5ns, an input offset voltage of 0.7mV at +25°C, and a quiescent supply current of 1.3mA. It supports an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Features ultra-fast propagation delay and low quiescent current consumption for efficient high-speed operation.
• Provides stable performance in the linear region without requiring a minimum input signal slew rate or built-in hysteresis.
• Includes a TTL-compatible latch function that holds the output state when the latch enable pin is asserted.
• Offers complementary outputs and an input common-mode range that extends below ground.

Applications

• High-Speed Signal Squaring
• Zero-Crossing Detectors
• High-Speed Line Receivers
• Fast Pulse-Width/Height Discriminators

Procurement Notes

Verify the component authenticity by checking the manufacturer markings against the official datasheet specifications. Confirm the package type matches the 8-pin µMAX format and ensure the suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to confirm availability and compliance with RoHS standards before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this comparator for applications requiring precise timing and stability with slow-moving signals. It serves as a direct replacement for industry-standard parts like the MAX913 and LT1016/LT1116 while offering lower power consumption and higher speed on a single 5V supply. Ensure the design accommodates the specific latch enable functionality and complementary output requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX9010–MAX9013 family of SC70, low-power, single-supply, precision TTL comparators. The MAX9013 specifically provides a single channel with complementary outputs and a latch function. The family is designed for space-critical designs and offers high precision with minimal input offset voltage drift across the specified temperature range.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX9013 is documented as an improved plug-in replacement for the MAX913 and LT1016/LT1116, offering lower power and higher speed in single 5V supply applications.

FAQ

Does the MAX9013 require hysteresis to prevent oscillation?

No, the device is designed to remain stable through the linear region without requiring a minimum input slew rate or built-in hysteresis.

What is the function of the Latch Enable (LE) pin?

The LE pin allows the user to hold the comparator's output state. When driven high, it latches the existing output state regardless of subsequent input changes.
