Product details
Overview
AD8561ARZ-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a single ultrafast comparator with 7 ns propagation delay, rail-to-rail input common-mode range (0 V to +3.0 V), latch enable functionality, and CMOS/TTL-compatible push-pull output. It operates from 3 V to 10 V single supply and is used in clock recovery circuits, high-speed line receivers, and phase detection systems where matched rising/falling edge delays preserve duty cycle fidelity.
For engineers reviewing the AD8561ARZ-REEL7 datasheet, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 pinout, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 application, or AD8561ARZ-REEL7 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact package mapping (SOIC_N, R-8), latch timing constraints (tS = 1 ns, tH = 1.2 ns), differential propagation delay (ΔtP ≤ 2.0 ns), and real-world substitution guidance for LT1016 upgrades.
Technical Context
The AD8561ARZ-REEL7 employs a PNP differential input stage enabling input common-mode voltage operation down to the negative rail (0 V on single supply) and up to +3.0 V - critical for low-voltage signal comparison without level shifting. Its latch function is edge-triggered via Pin 5 with sub-nanosecond setup/hold timing, allowing precise data capture in high-speed sampling systems.
Propagation delay matching (ΔtP ≤ 2.0 ns over temperature) and tightly controlled rise/fall times (3.8 ns / 1.5 ns) ensure minimal duty cycle distortion in clock distribution paths. The device supports dual-supply operation (±5 V) or single-supply (3–10 V), with separate analog and ground supply current paths (I+ = 4.7–7.5 mA, IGND = 2.2–3.8 mA, I− = 2.4–5.5 mA).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 6.75–9.8 ns at 5 V, 200 mV step with 100 mV overdrive - enables sub-100 MHz timing resolution in clock recovery. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | 0 V to +3.0 V on single supply - supports direct interface with 3.3 V logic and low-voltage sensors without biasing. |
| Differential Propagation Delay | ≤ 2.0 ns (rising vs. falling) - preserves input duty cycle in clock distribution and phase detector applications. |
| Latch Setup/Hold Time | tS = 1.0 ns, tH = 1.2 ns - allows synchronization with <1 ns jitter clocks in high-speed sampling systems. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 10 V single supply (or ±5 V dual supply) - accommodates industrial, telecom, and portable designs. |
| Output Drive Capability | VOH = 2.6 V min at –3.2 mA, VOL = 0.3 V max at +3.2 mA - directly drives TTL/CMOS loads without external pull-ups. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 7 mV max (–40°C to +85°C) - ensures reliable threshold detection in precision read channel and line receiver circuits. |
Pinout & Package
AD8561ARZ-REEL7 is packaged in an 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (R-8), RoHS-compliant, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and JEDEC MS-012-AA compliance. Dimensions: 5.00 × 4.00 × 1.50 mm (L × W × H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (V+) | Positive Supply | Accepts 3–10 V single supply or +5 V in dual-supply mode; powers input and output stages. |
| 2 (IN–) | Inverting Input | Differential input node with 3 pF capacitance; PNP input stage draws ~3 μA bias current out of this pin. |
| 3 (IN+) | Noninverting Input | Differential input node; identical bias and capacitance behavior as IN–; common-mode range extends to 0 V. |
| 4 (GND) | Ground Reference | Return path for ground supply current (IGND = 2.2–3.8 mA); must be low-inductance for high-speed stability. |
| 5 (LATCH) | Latch Enable Input | TTL/CMOS-compatible control: VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V; triggers output freeze with 1 ns setup and 1.2 ns hold. |
| 6 (OUT) | Digital Output | Push-pull CMOS/TTL output; drives 3.2 mA sink/source; no external pull-up required for logic-level compatibility. |
| 7 (V–) | Negative Supply | Accepts 0 V (single supply) or –5 V (dual supply); enables extended common-mode range when used with V+ = +5 V. |
| 8 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - not usable as thermal pad or ground tie. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1016CN8#PBF | Slower propagation delay (10 ns typ), higher supply current (25 mA), narrower input common-mode range (+1.25 V to +3.5 V on +5 V supply). | Lacks latch function; requires external latching logic for sampled-data applications. | Select only if legacy footprint compatibility is mandatory and speed/power trade-offs are acceptable. |
| MAX961ASA+ | Faster propagation delay (4.5 ns typ), rail-to-rail inputs (–0.2 V to VCC + 0.2 V), but no latch function and higher input offset (1.5 mV typ). | Optimized for ultra-high-speed ADC drivers and laser diode modulation, not latch-based sampling. | Prefer for pure speed-critical line receivers; avoid where latch synchronization is required. |
Compared with LT1016CN8#PBF and MAX961ASA+, the AD8561ARZ-REEL7 uniquely combines sub-10 ns speed, integrated latch, and 0 V input capability - making it the only choice for duty-cycle-preserving clock recovery with embedded sample-and-hold control in space-constrained SOIC layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage for AD8561ARZ-REEL7 on a +5 V single supply?
The AD8561ARZ-REEL7 supports an input common-mode voltage range of 0 V to +3.0 V when operated on a +5 V single supply. Exceeding +3.0 V may increase input bias current and degrade propagation delay performance, as confirmed in Figure 8 of the datasheet. For signals above +3.0 V, level-shifting or attenuation is recommended to maintain specified timing accuracy.
Does AD8561ARZ-REEL7 require external pull-up resistors on its output pin?
No, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 features a push-pull CMOS/TTL-compatible output stage that delivers VOH ≥ 2.6 V at –3.2 mA and VOL ≤ 0.3 V at +3.2 mA. External pull-up resistors are unnecessary for standard logic interfacing. A 5 kΩ pull-up to V+ may be added only to increase output swing in low-voltage (e.g., 3 V) applications - per Application Note page 7.
Can AD8561ARZ-REEL7 replace LT1016 in existing designs without layout changes?
Yes, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 is pin compatible with LT1016 in the same SOIC-8 (R-8) package and shares identical pinout per Figure 18–20 and "Replacing the LT1016" section. However, differences in input range (0–3 V vs. +1.25–3.5 V), lower supply current (5 mA vs. 25 mA), and latch functionality require verification of input signal levels and system timing margins before drop-in replacement.
What is the latch enable timing requirement for reliable data capture in AD8561ARZ-REEL7?
For reliable latch operation, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 requires a minimum setup time (tS) of 1.0 ns and hold time (tH) of 1.2 ns relative to the LATCH pin transition. This means the input signal must be stable ≥1 ns before and ≥1.2 ns after the LATCH edge. Data appears at the output within 8 ns after LATCH returns low, as specified in the "Setup and Hold Times for Latching the Output" section.
Is AD8561ARZ-REEL7 suitable for dual-supply (±5 V) operation?
Yes, AD8561ARZ-REEL7 supports dual-supply operation with V+ = +5 V and V– = –5 V, enabling input common-mode range extension to –5.0 V to +3.0 V. This configuration is explicitly validated in the Electrical Specifications table (Rev. D, page 3) and improves noise immunity in bipolar signal conditioning paths such as audio or sensor front-ends.
