The MAX9150 low-jitter, 10-port, low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) repeater is designed for applications that require high-speed data or clock distribution while minimizing power, space, and noise. The device accepts a single LVDS input and repeats the signal at 10 LVDS outputs. Each differential output drives a total of 50Ω, allowing point-to-point distribution of signals on transmission lines with 100Ω terminations on each end.Ultra-low 120ps (max) peak-to-peak jitter (deterministic and random) ensures reliable communication in high-speed links that are highly sensitive to timing error, especially those incorporating clock-and-data recovery, or serializers and deserializers. The high-speed switching performance guarantees 400Mbps data rate and less than 100ps skew between channels while operating from a single +3.3V supply.Supply current at 400Mbps is 160mA (max) and is reduced to 60µA (max) in low-power shutdown mode. Inputs and outputs conform to the EIA/TIA-644 LVDS standard. A fail-safe feature sets the outputs high when the input is undriven and open, terminated, or shorted. The MAX9150 is available in a 28-pin TSSOP package.Refer to the MAX9110/MAX9112 and MAX9111/MAX9113 data sheets for LVDS line drivers and receivers.ApplicationsAdd/Drop MultiplexersBackplane and Interconnect ApplicationsCell Phone Base StationsClock/Data DistributionDigital Cross-ConnectsNetwork Routers and Switches

The MAX9153/MAX9154 low-jitter, low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) repeaters are ideal for applications that require high-speed data or clock distribution while minimizing power, space, and noise. The devices accept a single LVDS input (MAX9153) or single LVPECL input (MAX9154) and repeat the signal at 10 LVDS outputs. Each differential output drives 100Ω, allowing point-to-point distribution of signals on transmission lines with 100Ω termination at the receiver input.Ultra-low 90psP-P(max) added deterministic jitter and 1psRMS(max) added random jitter ensure reliable communication in high-speed links that are highly sensitive to timing error, especially those incorporating clock-and-data recovery or serializers and deserializers. The high-speed switching performance guarantees 800Mbps data rate and less than 60ps (max) skew between channels while operating from a single +3.3V supply.Supply current at 800Mbps is 118mA and reduces to 2µA in power-down mode. LVDS inputs and outputs conform to the ANSI/EIA/TIA -644 standard. A fail-safe feature on the MAX9153 sets the output high when the input is undriven and open, terminated, or shorted. The MAX9153/MAX9154 are available in a 28-pin TSSOP package and are specified for the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.Refer to the MAX9150 data sheet for a pin-compatible 10-port LVDS repeater capable of driving a double-terminated (50Ω) LVDS link.Refer to the MAX9110/MAX9112 and MAX9111/MAX9113 data sheets for LVDS line drivers and receivers.ApplicationsAdd/Drop MultiplexersBackplane and Interconnect ApplicationsCell Phone Base StationsClock/Data DistributionDigital Cross-ConnectsNetwork Routers and Switches

The MAX9169/MAX9170 low-jitter, low-voltage differential signaling LVDS/LVTTL-to-LVDS repeaters are ideal for applications that require high-speed data or clock distribution while minimizing power, space, and noise. The devices accept a single LVDS (MAX9169) or LVTTL (MAX9170) input and repeat the input at four LVDS outputs. Each differential output drives 100Ω, allowing point-to-point distribution of signals on transmission lines with 100Ω termination at the receiver input. The MAX9169 and MAX9170 are pin compatible with the SN65LVDS104 and SN65LVDS105, respectively, and offer improved pulse-skew performance.Ultra-low 150ps (max) pulse skew and 200psP-P(max) added deterministic jitter ensure reliable communication in high-speed links that are highly sensitive to timing error, especially those incorporating clock-and-data recovery or serializers and deserializers. The high-speed switching performance guarantees 630Mbps data rate and less than 120ps channel-to-channel skew over the 3.0V to 3.6V operating supply range.Supply current is 30mA (max) for the MAX9169, and 25mA (max) for the MAX9170. LVDS inputs and outputs conform to the ANSI EIA/TIA-644 standard. A fail-safe feature on the MAX9169 sets the output high when the input is undriven and open, terminated, or shorted. The MAX9169/MAX9170 are offered in 16-pin TSSOP and SO packages, and operate over an extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.Refer to the MAX9130 data sheet for an LVDS line receiver in an SC70 package.ApplicationsAdd/Drop MultiplexersBackplane InterconnectCell Phone Base StationsClock DistributionDigital Cross-ConnectsNetwork Routers and SwitchesPoint-to-Point Baseband Data Transmission

The MAX917–MAX920 nanopower comparators in space-saving SOT23 packages feature Beyond-the-Rails™ inputs and are guaranteed to operate down to +1.8V. The MAX917/MAX918 feature an on-board 1.245V ±1.5% reference and draw an ultra-low supply current of only 750nA, while the MAX919/MAX920 (without reference) require just 380nA of supply current. These features make the MAX917–MAX920 family of comparators ideal for all 2-cell battery applications, including monitoring/management.The unique design of the output stage limits supply-current surges while switching, virtually eliminating the supply glitches typical of many other comparators. This design also minimizes overall power consumption under dynamic conditions. The MAX917/MAX919 have a push-pull output stage that sinks and sources current. Large internal output drivers allow rail-to-rail output swing with loads up to 8mA. The MAX918/MAX920 have an open-drain output stage that makes them suitable for mixed-voltage system design.Applications2-Cell Battery Monitoring/ManagementMedical InstrumentsMobile CommunicationsNotebooks and PDAsSensing at Ground or Supply LineTelemetry and Remote SystemsThreshold Detectors/DiscriminatorsUltra-Low-Power Systems
