The MAX941/MAX942/MAX944 single-supply compara-
tors feature internal hysteresis, high speed, and low
power. Their outputs are guaranteed to pull within 0.4V
of either supply rail without external pullup or pulldown
circuitry. Rail-to-rail input voltage range and low-volt-
age single-supply operation make these devices ideal
for portable equipment. The MAX941/MAX942/
MAX944 interface directly to CMOS and TTL logic.
Most high-speed comparators oscillate in the linear
region because of noise or undesired parasitic feed-
back. This tends to occur when the voltage on one
input is at or equal to the voltage on the other input. To
counter the parasitic effects and noise, the MAX941/
MAX942/MAX944 have internal hysteresis.
The hysteresis in a comparator creates two trip points:
one for the rising input voltage and one for the falling
input voltage (Figure 1). The difference between the trip
points is the hysteresis. When the comparator’s input
voltages are equal, the hysteresis effectively causes
one comparator input voltage to move quickly past the
other, thus taking the input out of the region where

oscillation occurs. Standard comparators require hys-
teresis to be added with external resistors. The
MAX941/MAX942/MAX944’s fixed internal hysteresis
eliminates these resistors and the equations needed to
determine appropriate values.
Figure 1 illustrates the case where IN- is fixed and IN+
is varied. If the inputs were reversed, the figure would
look the same, except the output would be inverted.

The MAX941/MAX942/MAX944 include internal protec-
tion circuitry that prevents damage to the precision
input stage from large differential input voltages. This
protection circuitry consists of two back-to-back diodes
between IN+ and IN- as well as two 4.1kΩ resistors
(Figure 3). The diodes limit the differential voltage
applied to the internal circuitry of the comparators to be
no more than 2V
of the diode (about 0.7V at +25°C).
For a large differential input voltage (exceeding 2V
this protection circuitry increases the input bias current
at IN+ (source) and IN- (sink).
Input current with large differential input voltages
should not be confused with input bias current (I
long as the differential input voltage is less than 2V
this input current is equal to I
also allows for the input common-mode range of the
MAX941/MAX942/MAX944 to extend beyond both
power-supply rails. The output is in the correct logic
state if one or both inputs are within the common-mode
range.
