GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADCMP567 is an ultrafast voltage comparator fabricated on Analog Devices’ proprietary XFCB process. The device features 250 ps propagation delay with less than 35 ps overdrive dispersion. Overdrive dispersion, a particularly important characteristic of high speed comparators, is a measure of the difference in propagation delay under differing overdrive conditions.

   Differential PECL compatible outputs
   Differential latch control
   Robust input protection
   Input common-mode range −2.0 V to +3.0 V
   Input differential range ±5 V
   ESD protection >3 kV HBM, >200 V MM
   Power supply sensitivity >65 dB
   200 ps minimum pulsewidth
   5 GHz equivalent input rise time bandwidth
   Typical output rise/fall of 165 ps
