General Description
The MAX9010/MAX9011/MAX9013 single and MAX9012
dual, high-speed comparators operate from a single
4.5V to 5.5V power supply and feature low-current consumption. They have precision differential inputs and
TTL outputs. They feature short propagation delay (5ns,
typ), low-supply current, and a wide common-mode
input range that includes ground. They are ideal for lowpower, high-speed, single-supply applications.
The comparator outputs remain stable through the linear
region when driven with slow-moving or low input-overdrive signals, eliminating the output instability common
to other high-speed comparators. The input voltage
range extends to 200mV below ground with no output
phase reversal. The MAX9013 features complementary
outputs and both the MAX9011/MAX9013 have a latch
enable input (LE). The MAX9013 is an improved plug-in
replacement for the industry-standard MAX913 and
LT1016/LT1116, offering lower power and higher speed
when used in a single 5V supply application.
For space-critical designs, the single MAX9010 is available in the tiny 6-pin SC70 package. The single
MAX9011 is available in a space-saving 6-pin SOT23
package. The dual MAX9012 and the single MAX9013
are available in 8-pin µMAX and 8-pin SO packages. All
products in the family are guaranteed over the extended
temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: All specifications are 100% tested at TA= +25°C; temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Note 2: Quiescent Power-Supply Current is slightly higher with the comparator output at V
OL
. This parameter is specified with the worst-
case condition of V
OUT
= VOLfor the MAX9010/MAX9011 and both outputs at VOLfor the MAX9012. For the MAX9013, which
has complementary outputs, the power-supply current is specified with either OUT = V
OL
, OUT = VOHor OUT = VOH, OUT =
V
OL
(power-supply current is equal in either case).
Note 3: Input Offset Voltage is tested and specified with the Input Common-Mode Voltage set to either extreme of the Input Common-
Mode Voltage Range (-0.2V to (V
CC
- 1.9V)) and with the Power-Supply Voltage set to either extreme of the Power-Supply
Voltage Range (4.5V to 5.5V).
