3) Calculate R1: R1 = (R3 + R4) x (V
4) Choose the trip point for V
5) Calculate R2 as follows:
6) Verify trip voltages and hysteresis as follows:
Power-supply bypass capacitors are not needed if sup-
ply impedance is low, but 100nF bypass capacitors
should be used when supply impedance is high or
when supply leads are long. Minimize signal lead
lengths to reduce stray capacitance between the input
and output that might cause instability.

Figure 5 shows an application using the MAX965 as an
infrared receiver. The infrared photodiode creates a
current relative to the amount of infrared light present.
This current creates a voltage across R1. When this
voltage level crosses the reference voltage applied to
the inverting input, the output transitions. Optional R3
provides additional hysteresis for noise immunity.
Figure 6 shows an application using the MAX965
to convert a 2-cell voltage-level signal into a TTL-
compatible signal. The supply voltage for the compara-
tor comes from the 2-cell supply. The output is pulled
up to a 5V supply.
