MAX912CSE-T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX912CSE-T is a dual comparator with integrated latch functionality, designed for applications requiring complementary TTL output logic. This device operates across a 5V to 10V supply range and is housed in a 16-SOIC surface mount package. The MAX912CSE-T is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for new designs and production continuity. The substitute part MAX912CSE+T provides functional equivalence while maintaining active product status and improved availability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX912CSE-T is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part MAX912CSE+T maintains identical specifications for:

• Dual comparator configuration with latch functionality
• Complementary TTL output logic
• Supply voltage range (5V ~ 10V)
• Input offset voltage (2mV @ ±5V)
• Input bias current (5µA @ ±5V)
• Output current capability (20mA typical)
• Quiescent current (10mA maximum)
• Common-mode and power-supply rejection ratios (110dB CMRR, 100dB PSRR)
• Propagation delay (14ns maximum)
• Operating temperature range (0°C ~ 70°C)
• 16-SOIC surface mount package (0.154", 3.90mm width)
• RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format and product status, not functional performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX912CSE+T is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete MAX912CSE-T. Both parts share identical electrical specifications and are housed in the same 16-SOIC surface mount package. The MAX912CSE+T is recommended for new designs and production applications due to its active product status and continuous availability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. The packaging format difference (Tape & Reel for the active part versus tube packaging for the obsolete part) does not affect functional performance and reflects standard industry practice for active production components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX912CSE+T be used as a direct replacement for MAX912CSE-T?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. They share the same dual comparator with latch configuration, TTL output logic, supply voltage range, input/output specifications, and 16-SOIC package dimensions. The only difference is product status and packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging format difference?

A: MAX912CSE-T is supplied in tube packaging, while MAX912CSE+T is supplied in Tape & Reel format. This reflects the product lifecycle transition from obsolete to active status. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for active production components and facilitates automated assembly processes. The functional performance of the die is identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. MSL Level 1 rating applies to both, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity protection.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is based on matching the dual-element comparator configuration, complementary TTL output type, 5V to 10V supply voltage range, input offset voltage (2mV @ ±5V), input bias current (5µA @ ±5V), output current capability (20mA), quiescent current (10mA), CMRR/PSRR performance (110dB/100dB), propagation delay (14ns), operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C), and 16-SOIC surface mount package specification.

Q: Is the MAX912CSE+T available in higher volume quantities?

A: The MAX912CSE+T maintains active product status with continuous manufacturing support from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, ensuring availability for production quantities. The obsolete MAX912CSE-T has limited remaining inventory.
