Maxim Integrated
General Description
The MAX9690 is an ultra-fast ECL comparator manufactured with a high-frequency bipolar process (fT = 6GHz) capable of very short propagation delays. This design maintains the excellent DC matching characteristics normally found only in slower comparators. The MAX9690 is similar in function to the MAX9685, except the latchenable input is eliminated.
The MAX9690 is pin-compatible with the CMP-08 but exceeds the AC characteristics of that device.
