MAX976/MAX978/MAX998
Single/Dual/Quad, SOT23, Single-Supply, High-Speed, Low-Power Comparators
________________General Description
The MAX976/MAX978/MAX998 dual/quad/single, highspeed, low-power comparators are optimized for +3V/+5V single-supply applications. They achieve a 20ns propagation delay while consuming only 225µA supply current per comparator. The MAX998 features a low-power shutdown mode that places the output in a high-impedance state and reduces supply current to 1nA.
The MAX976/MAX978/MAX998 inputs have a commonmode voltage range that extends 200mV below ground. Their outputs are capable of rail-to-rail operation without external pullup circuitry, making these devices ideal for interface with CMOS/TTL logic.
