Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX901AESE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Functional equivalence: 4-channel general purpose comparator with TTL output
• Electrical specifications: Voltage supply range (5V ~ 10V, ±2.5V ~ 5V), input offset voltage (2mV @ ±5V), input bias current (6µA @ ±5V), quiescent current (15mA, 12mA, 6mA), and common-mode rejection ratio / power supply rejection ratio (86.02dB each)
• Package compatibility: 16-SOIC surface mount package with 0.154" (3.90mm) width
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Compliance standards: ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1

The MAX901AESE+ meets all these criteria and is identified as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is product status: MAX901AESE+ is active, whereas MAX901AESE is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX901AESE+ is the direct equivalent for the obsolete MAX901AESE. Both parts are manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated and share identical electrical specifications, package geometry, and compliance certifications. The MAX901AESE+ is the recommended selection for new designs and production continuity due to its active product status. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with modern manufacturing and environmental standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX901AESE+ be used as a direct replacement for MAX901AESE?

A: Yes. The MAX901AESE+ is electrically and mechanically identical to the MAX901AESE. Both devices feature the same 4-channel TTL comparator architecture, electrical specifications, and 16-SOIC package configuration. The primary difference is product status: MAX901AESE+ is active while MAX901AESE is obsolete.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between MAX901AESE and MAX901AESE+?

A: The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical. The MAX901AESE is supplied in standard packaging, while MAX901AESE+ is supplied in Tube packaging. Both use the 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount package.

Q: What is the significance of the "+" designation in MAX901AESE+?

A: The "+" designation indicates the active production variant of the MAX901 base product number. This denotes current manufacturing status and availability from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both MAX901AESE and MAX901AESE+ are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What supply voltage configurations does this comparator support?

A: The MAX901AESE and MAX901AESE+ support both single supply (5V ~ 10V) and dual supply (±2.5V ~ 5V) configurations.
