_______________Detailed Description
The MAX965–MAX970 single/dual/quad, micropower,
ultra-low-voltage comparators feature Rail-to-Rail
®
inputs and outputs and an internal 1.235V ±1.5%
bandgap reference. These devices operate from a sin-
gle +1.6V to +5.5V supply voltage range, and consume
less than 5µA supply current per comparator over the
extended temperature range. Internal hysteresis is pro-
grammable up to ±50mV using two external resistors
and the device’s internal reference. The rail-to-rail input
common-mode voltage range and the open-drain out-
puts allow easy voltage-level conversion for multivolt-
age systems. All inputs and outputs can tolerate a
continuous short-circuit fault condition to either rail.
The MAX965 is a single comparator with adjustable
hysteresis and a reference output pin. The MAX966 is a
dual comparator without the reference and without
adjustable hysteresis. The MAX967 is a dual compara-
tor configured as a dual voltage monitor with common
hysteresis adjustment and a reference output. The dual
MAX968 is similar to the MAX967, but is configured as
a window comparator. The MAX969 is a quad com-
parator with a common hysteresis adjustment and a ref-
erence output pin. The MAX970 is a quad comparator
without a reference and without hysteresis adjustment.

Comparator Input
The MAX965–MAX970 have a -0.25V to V CC input com-
mon-mode range. Both comparator inputs may operate
at any differential voltage within the common-mode
voltage range, and the comparator displays the correct
output logic state.
Low-Voltage Operation: V CC Down to 1V
The minimum operating voltage is 1.6V. As the supply
voltage falls below 1.6V, performance degrades
and supply current falls. The reference does not
