The MAX941/MAX942/MAX944 contain a current-driven
output stage as shown in Figure 4. During an output
transition, I
output pin. The output source or sink current is high
during the transition, creating a rapid slew rate. Once
the output voltage reaches V
sink current decreases to a small value, capable of
maintaining the V
cant decrease in current conserves power after an out-
put transition has occurred.
One consequence of a current-driven output stage is a
linear dependence between the slew rate and the load
capacitance. A heavy capacitive load will slow down a
voltage output transition. This can be useful in noise-
sensitive applications where fast edges may cause
interference.

The high gain bandwidth of the MAX941/MAX942/
MAX944 requires design precautions to realize the
comparators’ full high-speed capability. The recom-
mended precautions are:
