Product details
Overview
MAX49140AXK/V+T from Maxim Integrated is a single high-speed, rail-to-rail input comparator optimized for 3V/5V automotive systems. It delivers 30ns propagation delay, 100μA supply current (typ), and 500μV offset voltage, with output swing within 300mV of either rail-enabling direct CMOS/TTL interfacing in battery-powered line receivers and threshold detectors.
For engineers reviewing the MAX49140AXK/V+T datasheet, MAX49140AXK/V+T pinout, MAX49140AXK/V+T application, or MAX49140AXK/V+T equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 qualification, -40°C to +125°C operation, internal 1.2mV hysteresis, SC70-5 package footprint, and fault-tolerant input/output pins capable of continuous short-circuit to either rail.
Technical Context
The MAX49140AXK/V+T employs a current-driven output stage that delivers rapid slew rate during transitions and reduces quiescent current after settling-enabling low-power, high-speed switching. Its input stage integrates back-to-back diodes and 1kΩ series resistors to clamp differential inputs up to ±1.4V while maintaining precision bias current below 500nA (typ) at +25°C.
Internal hysteresis of 1.2mV eliminates external feedback components and prevents oscillation near trip points, while rail-to-rail input common-mode range (0V to VDD) and output swing (VDD – 0.3V / 0.3V) support direct interfacing across 3V and 5V logic families without level-shifting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 30ns at 10mV overdrive - enables sub-33MHz signal sampling in zero-crossing or timing-critical detection circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-power comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV3501DBVR | 3.5ns propagation delay, 2.7–5.5V supply, no AEC-Q100 qualification, 1.5mV offset | Targeted at industrial/test equipment-not automotive qualified; higher speed but less robust ESD/short-circuit tolerance | Select when nanosecond-level timing dominates over automotive reliability requirements. |
| LMH7322MA/NOPB | 4.5ns delay, dual-channel, 2.7–12V supply, no internal hysteresis, 1.5mV offset, SOIC-8 package | Requires external hysteresis resistors; larger footprint and higher quiescent current (3.5mA) limit battery use | Choose for dual-comparator needs where space and power allow SOIC-8 and external component overhead. |
Compared with TLV3501DBVR and LMH7322MA/NOPB, the MAX49140AXK/V+T uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, 30ns speed, 100μA quiescent current, and integrated hysteresis in a 2.0mm × 1.25mm SC70 package-making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-critical automotive sensing nodes.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the MAX49140AXK/V+T?
The MAX49140AXK/V+T operates from 2.7V to 5.5V, supporting both 3V and 5V systems. Its rail-to-rail input and output stages function across this full supply range, enabling seamless integration into mixed-voltage automotive domains without external regulators or level shifters. The device maintains specified performance-including 30ns propagation delay and 100μA supply current-at all voltages within this window.
Is the MAX49140AXK/V+T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX49140AXK/V+T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0) and fully specified over -40°C to +125°C. It undergoes rigorous stress testing-including thermal cycling, humidity, and ESD-to meet automotive reliability standards. The "/V" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes automotive qualification, and the SC70 package carries RoHS-compliant lead-free plating ("+" marking).
Does the MAX49140AXK/V+T require external hysteresis components?
No, the MAX49140AXK/V+T features fixed internal hysteresis of 1.2mV, eliminating the need for external feedback resistors. This design simplifies PCB layout, reduces component count, and ensures consistent noise immunity across temperature and supply variations. External hysteresis can be added via positive feedback if wider thresholds are required-but is not necessary for baseline noise rejection.
What is the maximum continuous short-circuit duration the MAX49140AXK/V+T can tolerate?
The MAX49140AXK/V+T input and output pins are rated for continuous short-circuit fault conditions to either VDD or GND, per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This capability is validated across the full -40°C to +125°C range and supports robust operation in automotive wiring environments where accidental shorts may occur during service or manufacturing.
How does the output stage of the MAX49140AXK/V+T differ from open-drain comparators?
Unlike open-drain comparators, the MAX49140AXK/V+T uses a push-pull output stage that actively drives high and low-delivering VOH = VDD – 0.3V and VOL = 0.3V without external pull-up resistors. This architecture reduces propagation delay uncertainty, improves rise/fall symmetry, and lowers total system power by avoiding static pull-up current, making it ideal for high-speed, low-power automotive interfaces.
