Product details
Overview
MAX967EUA+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual micropower rail-to-rail input/output comparator with integrated 1.235V ±1.5% reference and programmable hysteresis, operating from +1.6V to +5.5V single supply and drawing only 10–16 µA total supply current over –40°C to +85°C. It features open-drain outputs capable of sinking beyond VCC up to 6V, rail-to-rail input common-mode range down to –0.25V, and 10 µs propagation delay (50mV overdrive), making it suitable for ultra-low-power 2-cell battery voltage monitoring and threshold detection in portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX967EUA+T datasheet, MAX967EUA+T pinout, MAX967EUA+T application, or MAX967EUA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-comparator architecture with shared hysteresis control, internal reference accuracy and temperature drift, open-drain output drive capability under low-VCC conditions, and µMAX-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX967EUA+T implements two independent comparators sharing a common HYST pin and REF output, enabling synchronized hysteresis programming across both channels. Its input stage supports rail-to-rail operation with –0.25V to (VCC – 0.25V) common-mode range at full temperature, and its open-drain outputs tolerate continuous short-circuit to GND or VCC.
Internal 1.235V bandgap reference delivers ±1.5% accuracy (0°C to +85°C) and ±2.5% (–40°C to +85°C), sourcing up to 50 µA while maintaining <10 µVRMS noise with 0.1 µF bypass. Propagation delay remains stable at 10 µs (50mV overdrive) across 1.6V–5.5V supply and full temperature range.
Key Specifications

| 3 | INB+ | Inverting input of Comparator B - accepts rail-to-rail common-mode signals from –0.25V to VCC – 0.25V |
| 4 | INB– | Noninverting input of Comparator B - shares HYST/REF configuration with Comparator A |
| 5 | INA– | Inverting input of Comparator A - supports differential sensing with matched input bias current (<5 nA) |
| 6 | HYST | Hysteresis programming node - connects to REF or external resistor divider to set ±1–50 mV hysteresis band |
| 7 | REF | 1.235V reference output - sources up to 50 µA; requires 0.1 µF bypass for <10 µVRMS noise |
| 8 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be tied to system ground plane with low-inductance connection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual comparator with reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV3702IDR | No internal reference; rail-to-rail output but not rail-to-rail input; 1.8V min supply; 850 nA/ch supply current | Requires external reference and level-shifting for sub-1.8V operation; better for ultra-low-IQ designs above 1.8V | Select when lowest possible quiescent current is critical and external reference is acceptable |
| MAX965EUA+T | Single comparator; identical REF, HYST, µMAX-8 package, and electrical specs except channel count | Used where only one threshold detection is needed; pin-compatible footprint allows design reuse | Select for single-channel applications to reduce cost and simplify layout without changing PCB |
Compared with TLV3702IDR and MAX965EUA+T, the MAX967EUA+T uniquely delivers dual-channel functionality with integrated reference and programmable hysteresis in the same µMAX-8 footprint-enabling compact, self-contained voltage monitoring without external components or supply voltage limitations below 1.6V.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating supply voltage for MAX967EUA+T?
The MAX967EUA+T is fully specified from +1.6V to +5.5V. While comparator operation may persist down to +1.0V, reference accuracy degrades below +1.5V and propagation delay increases significantly. For guaranteed performance per datasheet specifications, maintain VCC ≥ +1.6V. The MAX967EUA+T datasheet specifies 1.8V min for µMAX package across –40°C to +85°C.
Does MAX967EUA+T support rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage?
Yes, the MAX967EUA+T supports a rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage range of –0.25V to (VCC – 0.25V) across the full temperature range. This allows direct interface to signals referenced to GND or VCC, including battery voltage monitoring and ground-sense applications. The MAX967EUA+T maintains this specification even at VCC = +1.6V.
How is hysteresis programmed on MAX967EUA+T?
Hysteresis on the MAX967EUA+T is programmed using the HYST pin: connect resistor R1 between REF and HYST, and R2 between HYST and GND. This configures hysteresis from ±1 mV to ±50 mV, applied identically to both comparators. If no hysteresis is needed, tie HYST directly to REF. The MAX967EUA+T datasheet provides exact formulas for R1/R2 calculation based on desired hysteresis band.
What is the output structure of MAX967EUA+T and what pull-up voltage can it tolerate?
The MAX967EUA+T features open-drain outputs (OUTA and OUTB) capable of sinking current up to 6V above GND, independent of VCC. This allows pull-up to higher-voltage rails (e.g., 3.3V or 5V) while powered from a lower VCC (e.g., 1.8V), enabling seamless voltage-level translation. The MAX967EUA+T output leakage remains <100 nA at 5.5V, ensuring clean logic transitions.
Is MAX967EUA+T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX965–MAX970 family?
The MAX967EUA+T in µMAX-8 package shares identical pinout with MAX965EUA+T and MAX966EUA+T, differing only in internal functionality (dual comparator + REF + HYST vs. single or dual without REF). This enables footprint reuse across designs. However, MAX967EUA+T is not pin-compatible with SO-package variants (e.g., MAX967ESA) due to different pin assignments and package dimensions.
