Product details
Overview
MAX9094ASD+T from Maxim Integrated is a quad, open-drain, low-voltage comparator IC with 14-pin SO package, guaranteed operation from +1.8V to +5.5V supply, -40°C to +125°C temperature range, and 100ns propagation delay at 100mV overdrive - used in battery-powered portable electronics for voltage monitoring and signal threshold detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX9094ASD+T datasheet, MAX9094ASD+T pinout, MAX9094ASD+T application, or MAX9094ASD+T equivalent, key selection criteria include supply current (250–400µA at +25°C), input offset voltage (0.4–5mV), output saturation voltage (120–400mV at ISINK ≤ 4mA), hysteresis absence (vs. MAX9095), and SO-14 pin compatibility with legacy LMX339H-based designs.
Technical Context
The MAX9094ASD+T implements four independent high-speed comparators with rail-to-rail input common-mode range extending 0.1V below VSS and up to VDD – 0.8V, enabling direct sensing of ground-referenced signals without level-shifting. It features no phase reversal under overdriven inputs and open-drain outputs compatible with mixed-voltage logic interfaces via external pull-up resistors.
Unlike the hysteresis-equipped MAX9095ASD+T, the MAX9094ASD+T lacks internal hysteresis - requiring external positive feedback if noise immunity is needed in slow-signal applications. Its BiCMOS process delivers low input bias current (±0.0016nA typ) and high PSRR (60–90dB) across 1.8V–5.5V supply variation.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.8V to +5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V systems without level translation |
| Propagation Delay | 70–120ns (tPHL/tPLH at 100mV overdrive) - enables reliable 10MHz signal edge detection |
| Input Offset Voltage | 0.4–5mV (typ/max at +25°C) - ensures accurate thresholding down to ~10mV differential |
| Supply Current | 250–400µA (all four channels, +25°C) - enables multi-comparator functions in ultra-low-power wake-up circuits |
| Output Saturation Voltage | 120–400mV at ISINK ≤ 4mA - guarantees clean LOW-level signaling into standard CMOS/TTL loads |
| Input Common-Mode Range | -0.1V to VDD – 0.8V - allows direct ground-referenced input sensing without external biasing |

Pinout & Package
MAX9094ASD+T is housed in a 14-pin Small Outline (SO) package with standard 1.27mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant footprint, and RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTC | Open-drain output of Comparator C - requires external pull-up for HIGH state; sinks up to 35mA |
| 2 | OUTD | Open-drain output of Comparator D - shares same drive capability and interface constraints as OUTC |
| 3 | VSS | Negative supply terminal (GND) - reference for all inputs and outputs; must be low-impedance |
| 4 | IND+ | Noninverting input of Comparator D - accepts signals within -0.1V to VDD – 0.8V range |
| 5 | INA- | Inverting input of Comparator A - differential pair node; matched to INA+ for offset minimization |
| 6 | INA+ | Noninverting input of Comparator A - primary threshold reference input for first comparator channel |
| 7 | VDD | Positive supply (1.8–5.5V) - powers all four comparators; bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor |
| 8 | OUTA | Open-drain output of Comparator A - default active-low assertion; compatible with I²C bus pull-up schemes |
| 9 | INC+ | Noninverting input of Comparator C - independently configurable threshold input |
| 10 | INC- | Inverting input of Comparator C - paired with INC+; supports differential or single-ended configurations |
| 11 | IND- | Inverting input of Comparator D - matched pair with IND+; enables precise window or zero-crossing detection |
| 12 | INB+ | Noninverting input of Comparator B - second independent threshold input |
| 13 | OUTB | Open-drain output of Comparator B - electrically identical to OUTA/OUTC/OUTD |
| 14 | INB- | Inverting input of Comparator B - completes B-channel differential pair; low input bias current preserves accuracy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | Extends 0.1V below VSS and to VDD – 0.8V - eliminates need for input bias networks in ground-sensed applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad open-drain comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMX339HSD/NOPB | Pin-compatible but higher supply current (350–600µA), wider offset (1–7mV), no guaranteed 1.8V operation | Legacy industrial designs requiring drop-in replacement where 1.8V support is not required | Select when backward compatibility with existing LMX339H layouts is mandatory and supply headroom >2.7V exists |
| MAX9095ASD+T | Same pinout and specs, but adds 2mV internal hysteresis - increases propagation delay by ≤10ns | Noise-prone environments with slow-moving inputs (e.g., thermistor monitoring, mechanical switch debouncing) | Choose MAX9095ASD+T only if hysteresis is required; otherwise MAX9094ASD+T offers lower delay and identical footprint |
Compared with LMX339HSD/NOPB, MAX9094ASD+T enables true 1.8V operation and cuts supply current by ~30% at 2.7V; versus MAX9095ASD+T, it trades hysteresis for 5–10ns faster response - making it optimal for timing-critical, low-noise signal conditioning.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating supply voltage for MAX9094ASD+T?
The MAX9094ASD+T is fully specified and guaranteed to operate down to +1.8V supply voltage across the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. At 1.8V, typical supply current is 210–340µA for all four comparators, and propagation delay remains within 70–120ns at 100mV overdrive - enabling direct integration into single-cell lithium-polymer and coin-cell systems without voltage boosting.
Does MAX9094ASD+T include internal hysteresis?
No, MAX9094ASD+T does not include internal hysteresis. Hysteresis is present only in the MAX9095ASD+T variant (2mV typical). For noise-sensitive applications, external hysteresis must be added using two resistors in positive feedback configuration - design equations and layout guidance are provided in the MAX9094ASD+T datasheet Figure 2 and associated text.
What is the maximum sink current capability of each output in MAX9094ASD+T?
Each open-drain output of MAX9094ASD+T can sink up to 35mA while maintaining output saturation voltage ≤400mV at -40°C to +125°C (ISINK ≤ 4mA condition). At room temperature and ISINK ≤ 1mA, VSAT is typically 56mV (1.8V supply) or 120mV (5V supply), allowing direct drive of LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs without external buffers.
Can MAX9094ASD+T accept input voltages below ground?
Yes, MAX9094ASD+T supports an input common-mode voltage range extending to -0.1V below VSS (ground), verified across all supply voltages (1.8V–5.5V) and temperatures (-40°C to +125°C). This allows direct connection of slightly negative transducer outputs or AC-coupled signals without clamping diodes or level-shifting circuitry - provided differential input voltage stays within ±3.6V absolute maximum rating.
Is MAX9094ASD+T pin-compatible with LM339-based designs?
MAX9094ASD+T is pin-for-pin compatible with the LMX339/LMX339H in the 14-pin SO package, matching pin functions exactly (e.g., OUTA=Pin 8, INB-=Pin 14, VDD=Pin 7). However, unlike LM339, MAX9094ASD+T operates down to 1.8V, draws less current, and offers improved PSRR and propagation delay - making it a functional upgrade without PCB changes.
