Note 1:
The MAX975EUA is 100% production tested at T
A
= +25
°
C; all temperature specifications are guaranteed by design.
Note 2:
Inferred by CMRR. Either input can be driven to the absolute maximum limit without false output inversion, as long as the
other input is within the specified common-mode input voltage range.
Note 3:
V
OS
is defined as the mean of trip points. The trip points are the extremities of the differential input voltage required to make
the comparator output change state (Figure 1).
Note 4:
The difference between the upper and lower trip points is equal to the width of the input-referred hysteresis zone (Figure 1).
Note 5:
Guaranteed by design. The LP pin is sensitive to noise. If fall times larger than 10µs are expected, bypass LP to ground
using a 0.1µF capacitor.
Note 6:
Propagation delay is guaranteed by design. For low-overdrive conditions, V
OS
is added to the overdrive. The following
equation defines propagation-delay skew: t
SKEW
= t
