Dual, Low-Power, 500Mbps
ATE Drivers/Comparators with 2mA Load
General Description
The MAX9961/MAX9962 dual, low-power, high-speed,
pin electronics driver/comparator/load (DCL) ICs
include, for each channel, a three-level pin driver, a
dual comparator, variable clamps, and an active load.
The driver features a wide voltage range and high-
speed operation, includes high-impedance and active-
termination (3rd-level drive) modes, and is highly linear
even at low voltage swings. The dual comparator pro-
vides low dispersion (timing variation) over a wide vari-
ety of input conditions. The clamps provide damping of
high-speed device-under-test (DUT) waveforms when
the device is configured as a high-impedance receiver.
The programmable load supplies up to 2mA of source
and sink current. The load facilitates contact/continuity
testing and pullup of high-output-impedance devices.
The MAX9961A/MAX9962A provide tight matching of
offset for the drivers and the comparators, allowing ref-
erence levels to be shared across multiple channels in
cost-sensitive systems. Use the MAX9961B/MAX9962B
for system designs that incorporate independent refer-
ence levels for each channel.
The MAX9961/MAX9962 provide high-speed, differen-
tial control inputs compatible with LVPECL, LVDS, and
GTL. The MAX9961/MAX9962 are available with option-
al internal termination resistors. The open-collector
comparator outputs are available with or without inter-
nal pullup resistors. The optional internal resistors sig-
nificantly reduce the discrete component count on the
circuit board.
A 3-wire, low-voltage, CMOS-compatible serial interface
programs the low-leakage, slew-rate limit, and tri-state/
terminate operational configurations of the MAX9961/
MAX9962.
The MAX9961/MAX9962s’ operating range is -1.5V to
+6.5V with power dissipation of only 900mW per chan-
nel. The devices are available in a 100-pin, 14mm x
14mm body, and 0.5mm pitch TQFP. An exposed 8mm
x 8mm die pad on the top (MAX9961) or bottom
(MAX9962) of the package facilitates efficient heat
removal. The device is specified to operate with an
internal die temperature of +70°C to +100°C, and fea-
tures a die temperature monitor output.

*Dissipation
wattage values are based on still air with no heat sink for the MAX9961 and slug soldered to board copper for the
MAX9962. Actual maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of heat extraction technique and may be substantially higher.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
