High-Speed, Low-Power Voltage Comparators
Because of the large gain-bandwidth transfer function of
the MAX900–MAX903, special precautions must be
taken to realize their full high-speed capability. A printed
circuit board with a good, low-inductance ground plane
is mandatory. All decoupling capacitors (the small
100nF ceramic type is a good choice) should be mount-
ed as close as possible to the power-supply pins.
Separate decoupling capacitors for analog V
digital V
should be paid to the bandwidth of the decoupling and
terminating components. Short lead lengths on the
inputs and outputs are essential to avoid unwanted par-
asitic feedback around the comparators. Solder the
device directly to the printed circuit board instead of
using a socket.
As with all high-speed comparators, the high gain-band-
width product of the MAX900–MAX903 can create oscil-
lation problems when the input traverses the linear
region. For clean output switching without oscillation or
steps in the output waveform, the input must meet mini-
mum slew-rate requirements. Oscillation is largely a
function of board layout and of coupled source imped-
ance and stray input capacitance. Both poor layout and
large-source impedance will cause the part to oscillate
and increase the minimum slew-rate requirement. In
some applications, it may be helpful to apply some posi-
tive feedback between the output and + input. This

pushes the output through the transition region cleanly,
but applies a hysteresis in threshold seen at the input
terminals.
The comparator TTL-output stages are optimized for dri-
ving low-power Schottky TTL with a fan-out of four.
When the latch is connected to a logic high level, the
comparator is transparent and immediately responds to
changes at the input terminals. When the latch is con-
nected to a TTL low level, the comparator output latches
in the same state as at the instant that the latch command
is applied, and will not respond to subsequent changes
at the input. No latch is provided on the MAX901.
The MAX900–MAX903 can be powered from separate
analog and digital supplies or from a single +5V supply.
The analog supply can range from +5V to +10V with

digital supply always requires +5V.
In high-speed, mixed-signal applications where a com-
mon ground is shared, a noisy digital environment can
adversely affect the analog input signal. When set up
