Single/Dual/Quad, Micropower,
Ultra-Low-Voltage, Rail-to-Rail I/O Comparators
General Description
The MAX965–MAX970 single/dual/quad micropower
comparators feature rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, and
fully specified single-supply operation down to +1.6V.
These devices draw less than 5µA per comparator and
have open-drain outputs that can be pulled beyond V
CC
to 6V (max) above ground. In addition, their rail-to-rail
input common-mode voltage range makes these com-
parators suitable for ultra-low-voltage operation.
A +1.6V to +5.5V single-supply operating voltage range
makes the MAX965 family of comparators ideal for 2-cell
battery-powered applications. The MAX965/MAX967/
MAX968/MAX969 offer programmable hysteresis and
an internal 1.235V ±1.5% reference. All devices are
available in either space-saving 8-pin µMAX
®
or 16-pin
QSOP packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
