Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX9692ESE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Single-channel comparator architecture with integrated latch function
• Complementary ECL output configuration
• Input offset voltage maximum of 6.5mV at 5V supply
• Input bias current maximum of 20µA at 5V supply
• Output current capability of 50mA typical
• Quiescent current maximum of 26mA
• Common-mode rejection ratio of 80dB and power supply rejection ratio of 60dB
• Propagation delay maximum of 1.8ns
• Industrial temperature range: -40°C to 85°C
• Surface mount packaging with 16-pin configuration and 3.90mm width

The MAX9692ESE+ qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all electrical performance specifications and maintaining compatible pinout and package dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX9692ESE+ is the active equivalent for the obsolete MAX9692ESE. Both devices maintain identical electrical performance specifications across all critical parameters including input offset voltage, bias current, output current, propagation delay, and frequency response characteristics.

The primary distinction between these parts is product lifecycle status and regulatory compliance. The MAX9692ESE+ carries active product status from the manufacturer and meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, making it suitable for new designs and applications subject to environmental regulations. The original MAX9692ESE is classified as obsolete and does not meet current RoHS standards.

Package geometry remains compatible between both variants, with both utilizing 16-pin surface mount configurations at 3.90mm width. The electrical pinout and functional behavior are equivalent, supporting direct substitution in existing circuit designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX9692ESE+ directly replace MAX9692ESE in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both devices share identical electrical specifications, pinout configuration, and package dimensions. The MAX9692ESE+ is the active production equivalent and can be used as a direct substitute.

Q: What is the difference between 16-SOIC and 16-SSOP packaging?

A: Both packages maintain the same 3.90mm width and 16-pin configuration. SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) and SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package) are functionally equivalent surface mount packages with compatible footprints for this device family.

Q: Why is the MAX9692ESE classified as obsolete?

A: The MAX9692ESE has reached end-of-life status in the manufacturer's product portfolio. The MAX9692ESE+ represents the active continuation of this product line with maintained electrical performance and updated compliance certifications.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect electrical performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and environmental standards, not electrical functionality. The MAX9692ESE+ delivers identical electrical performance to the original part while meeting ROHS3 material requirements.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for these parts?

A: The MAX9692ESE remains available in limited quantities as legacy stock. The MAX9692ESE+ is actively manufactured and represents the recommended choice for new procurement and production planning.
