MAX908CPD+

Overview

The MAX908CPD+ is a quad, high-speed, ultra-low-power voltage comparator designed for single +5V supply operation. It features a typical propagation delay of 40ns with 5mV input overdrive and consumes only 3.5mW per comparator. The device operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and utilizes a 14-pin Plastic DIP package. Its wide input common-mode range extends from 200mV below ground to within 1.5V of the positive rail.

Feature Summary

• Incorporates internal hysteresis to ensure clean output switching without external resistors
• Outputs are TTL-compatible, eliminating the need for external pullup circuitry
• Inputs and outputs support continuous short-circuit protection to either supply rail

Applications

• Battery-Powered Systems
• High-Speed A/D Converters
• Threshold Detectors/Discriminators

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or manufacturer channels. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type and temperature rating. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives as indicated in official documentation before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low power consumption alongside high-speed performance on a single +5V supply. Consider the 14-pin DIP package for prototyping or legacy board designs. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target system.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX907/MAX908/MAX909 family of comparators manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. The MAX908 specifically provides four independent comparators in a single package, distinguishing it from the dual MAX907 and single MAX909 variants.

Replacement Considerations

The datasheet indicates the MAX909 was manufactured using an unavailable process and is not recommended for new designs. Consult technical support for potential Maxim replacements or industry second-sources.
