Maxim Integrated MAX967EUA Voltage Comparator

The Maxim Integrated MAX967EUA is a high-performance, low-power voltage comparator designed for precision voltage monitoring and control in a wide range of applications. This compact, single comparator is housed in a space-saving 8-pin µMAX package, making it well-suited for space-constrained applications where size and power efficiency are critical considerations.

With its fast propagation delay of just 80ns and low supply current of 4µA, the MAX967EUA is an excellent choice for battery-powered devices, portable equipment, and energy-sensitive systems. Its wide supply voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V allows it to operate in various environments and interface easily with other components in a circuit.

The device features an internal 1.182V ±1% reference voltage, enabling precise voltage threshold settings for monitoring and control tasks. Users can configure the comparator with external resistive dividers to set custom voltage thresholds, providing flexibility for different application requirements. Additionally, the MAX967EUA offers a push-pull output stage that can sink and source current, eliminating the need for an external pull-up resistor and simplifying design.

For enhanced system reliability, the MAX967EUA includes over-temperature and over-voltage protection, ensuring stable operation even under harsh conditions. Its robust design is characterized by a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications where temperature extremes are common.

Key features of the MAX967EUA include:

• Low-power operation with 4µA supply current
• Fast 80ns propagation delay for responsive voltage monitoring
• Internal 1.182V reference voltage with tight accuracy
• Wide 2.5V to 5.5V supply voltage range
• Push-pull output stage for direct interfacing with logic levels
• Compact 8-pin µMAX package suitable for space-limited applications
• Extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for diverse environments

The MAX967EUA from Maxim Integrated is an ideal solution for designers who require a reliable, high-precision voltage comparator for their next project. Whether it's for power management, window comparators, or voltage level detection, this component offers the performance and features necessary to meet stringent application demands.
