Product details
Overview
The MAX9107ESA+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual, high-speed, low-power voltage comparator IC designed for single +5V supply systems. It delivers 25ns propagation delay with 10mV input overdrive, consumes only 350µA per comparator (1.75mW), and features TTL-compatible outputs with internal 2mV hysteresis - enabling clean switching in battery-powered threshold detection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MAX9107ESA+T datasheet, MAX9107ESA+T pinout, MAX9107ESA+T application, or MAX9107ESA+T equivalent, this device is selected for precision timing-critical comparators where low supply current, ground-sensing input range (-0.2V to VCC–1.5V), and latch-free dual-channel operation are required.
Technical Context
The MAX9107ESA+T implements a bipolar process-based comparator core with fixed internal hysteresis (2mV) to suppress oscillation during slow input transitions. Its input common-mode range extends from -0.2V below ground to within 1.5V of VCC, supporting rail-to-rail input sensing without external level-shifting.
Each comparator channel features independent IN+ and IN- inputs, TTL-compatible push-pull output stages (VOH ≥ 3.0V at 100µA, VOL ≤ 0.6V at 3.2mA), and operates across -40°C to +85°C with guaranteed 4.5V–5.5V supply compliance and 500µV typical input offset voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 25ns at 10mV overdrive - enables sub-40MHz sampling decision timing |
| Supply Current per Comparator | 350µA (1.75mW at 5V) - supports ultra-low-power battery operation |
| Input Offset Voltage | Max 4.0mV over temperature - ensures stable trip-point accuracy in discriminators |
| Input Common-Mode Range | -0.2V to VCC–1.5V - allows direct ground-referenced signal comparison |
| Hysteresis | 2mV input-referred - eliminates external feedback resistors and prevents chatter |
| Output Compatibility | TTL logic levels (VOH ≥ 3.0V, VOL ≤ 0.6V) - drives standard logic without pull-ups |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive-adjacent environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX9107ESA+T is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package (package code S8-2), RoHS-compliant, with 1.27mm lead pitch and exposed pad not present. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | N.C. | No internal connection - must be left unconnected or grounded per layout best practice |
| 2 | OUTA | Channel A TTL-compatible output - directly interfaces with 74LS/74F logic or microcontroller inputs |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane |
| 4 | LE | Latch Enable - unused on MAX9107; tied low or left open (not applicable to dual version) |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5V–5.5V) - requires local 0.1µF ceramic decoupling capacitor |
| 6 | IN+ | Channel A noninverting input - accepts signals down to -0.2V for ground-level sensing |
| 7 | IN- | Channel A inverting input - differential pair input with 125nA max bias current |
| 8 | N.C. | No internal connection - must be left unconnected or grounded |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage comparator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM393DR | Slower (1.3µs propagation delay), higher supply current (1.2mA), no internal hysteresis, open-collector outputs requiring pull-ups | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-critical timing applications where speed and power are secondary | Select LM393DR only when 25ns timing and 350µA operation are unnecessary and board space allows external pull-up resistors |
| TLV3501CDR | Faster (4.5ns), rail-to-rail input, CMOS output (not TTL), higher supply current (8.5mA), no internal hysteresis | Preferred for high-speed, low-voltage (2.7V–5.5V) systems needing nanosecond response but accepting external hysteresis design | Choose TLV3501CDR when sub-10ns delay is mandatory and system uses CMOS logic; avoid if TTL compatibility or ultra-low power is required |
Compared with LM393DR and TLV3501CDR, the MAX9107ESA+T uniquely combines TTL compatibility, internal hysteresis, 25ns speed, and 350µA power in a dual configuration - making it optimal for industrial line receivers and battery-operated discriminators where all four attributes are simultaneously needed.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX9107ESA+T?
The MAX9107ESA+T has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC to GND) of 6V. However, its specified operating range is strictly 4.5V to 5.5V - operation outside this window may cause parametric degradation or functional failure. The 6V limit applies only to short-duration stress conditions, not continuous operation. Always regulate VCC to 5.0V ±5% for guaranteed performance of the MAX9107ESA+T.
Does the MAX9107ESA+T include internal hysteresis, and can it be disabled?
Yes, the MAX9107ESA+T incorporates a fixed 2mV internal hysteresis to ensure clean output transitions with slow-moving inputs - no external components are needed. This hysteresis cannot be disabled; it is hardwired into the comparator core. If adjustable hysteresis is required, external positive feedback must be added, though doing so overrides the internal value and alters trip-point symmetry. The MAX9107ESA+T relies on this built-in feature for robustness in noisy environments.
What is the function of Pin 4 (LE) on the MAX9107ESA+T?
Pin 4 on the MAX9107ESA+T is labeled LE (Latch Enable), but it is not functional in the MAX9107 variant - only the MAX9109 includes an internal latch. On the MAX9107ESA+T, Pin 4 is a no-connect (N.C.) terminal. It must be left unconnected or tied to GND per layout guidelines; driving it high or low has no effect on comparator operation. This pin exists for package compatibility across the MAX9107/MAX9108/MAX9109 family but is inactive in the dual MAX9107ESA+T.
Can the MAX9107ESA+T operate with input voltages below ground?
Yes, the MAX9107ESA+T supports an input common-mode range extending to -0.2V below ground (GND – 0.2V), verified across the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. This allows direct comparison of signals referenced to system ground - such as battery voltage monitors or zero-crossing detectors - without level-shifting circuitry. Inputs driven below -0.2V risk exceeding absolute maximum ratings and require current limiting to ≤20mA to avoid damage.
Is the MAX9107ESA+T pin-compatible with other packages of the same part number?
No - the MAX9107ESA+T specifically denotes the 8-pin SO package (S8-2). It is not pin-compatible with the MAX9107EKA+T (8-pin SOT23-8), which has a different pinout: VCC and GND are swapped, and output/input assignments differ. Using the wrong package without verifying pin mapping will result in incorrect operation or damage. Always match the suffix: ESA+ = SO, EKA+T = SOT23-8. Both are MAX9107 devices but require distinct PCB footprints and routing.
