GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADCMP600, ADCMP601, and ADCMP602 are very fast
comparators fabricated on Analog Devices’ proprietary XFCB2
process. These comparators are exceptionally versatile and easy
to use. Features include an input range from VEE − 0.5 V to VCC +
0.5 V, low noise TTL-/CMOS-compatible output drivers, and
latch inputs with adjustable hysteresis and/or shutdown inputs.
The devices offer 3 ns propagation delay with 5 mV overdrive
on 4 mA typical supply current.
A flexible power supply scheme allows the devices to operate
with a single +2.5 V positive supply and a −0.5 V to +3.0 V
input signal range up to a +5.5 V positive supply with a −0.5 V
to +6 V input signal range. Split input/output supplies with no
sequencing restrictions on the ADCMP602 support a wide
input signal range while still allowing independent output
swing control and power savings.
The TTL-/CMOS-compatible output stage is designed to drive
up to 5 pF with full timing specs and to degrade in a graceful
and linear fashion as additional capacitance is added. The
comparator input stage offers robust protection against large
input overdrive, and the outputs do not phase reverse when the
valid input signal range is exceeded. High speed latch and
programmable hysteresis features are also provided with a
unique single-pin control option.
The ADCMP600 is available in both 5-lead SC70 and SOT-23
packages, the ADCMP601 is available in a 6-lead SC70 package,
and the ADCMP602 is available in 8-lead MSOP and LSCFP
packages.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
POWER/GROUND LAYOUT AND BYPASSING
The ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 comparators are
very high speed devices. Despite the low noise output stage, it is
essential to use proper high speed design techniques to achieve
the specified performance. Because comparators are
uncompensated amplifiers, feedback in any phase relationship is
likely to cause oscillations or undesired hysteresis. Of critical
importance is the use of low impedance supply planes,
particularly the output supply plane (VCCO) and the ground
plane (GND). Individual supply planes are recommended as
part of a multilayer board. Providing the lowest inductance
return path for switching currents ensures the best possible
performance in the target application.
It is also important to adequately bypass the input and output
supplies. Multiple high quality 0.01 μF bypass capacitors should
be placed as close as possible to each of the VCCI and VCCO supply
pins and should be connected to the GND plane with redundant
vias. At least one of these should be placed to provide a physically
short return path for output currents flowing back from ground
to the VCC pin. High frequency bypass capacitors should be
carefully selected for minimum inductance and ESR. Parasitic
layout inductance should also be strictly controlled to maximize
the effectiveness of the bypass at high frequencies.
If the package allows and the input and output supplies have
been connected separately such that VCCI ≠ VCCO, care should be
taken to bypass each of these supplies separately to the GND
plane. A bypass capacitor should never be connected between
them. It is recommended that the GND plane separate the VCCI
and VCCO planes when the circuit board layout is designed to
minimize coupling between the two supplies and to take
advantage of the additional bypass capacitance from each
respective supply to the ground plane. This enhances the
performance when split input/output supplies are used. If the
input and output supplies are connected together for single-supply
operation such that VCCI = VCCO, coupling between the two supplies
is unavoidable; however, careful board placement can help keep
output return currents away from the inputs.
TTL-/CMOS-COMPATIBLE OUTPUT STAGE
Specified propagation delay performance can be achieved only
by keeping the capacitive load at or below the specified minimums.
The outputs of the ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 are
designed to directly drive one Schottky TTL or three low power
Schottky TTL loads or equivalent. For large fan outputs, buses,
or transmission lines, an appropriate buffer should be used to
maintain the comparators excellent speed and stability.
With the rated 5 pF load capacitance applied, more than half of
the total device propagation delay is output stage slew time,
even at 2.5 V VCC. Because of this, the total prop delay decreases
as VCCO decreases, and instability in the power supply may
appear as excess delay dispersion.
This delay is measured to the 50% point for the supply in use;
therefore, the fastest times are observed with the VCC supply at
2.5 V, and larger values are observed when driving loads that
switch at other levels.
When duty cycle accuracy is critical, the logic being driven
should switch at 50% of VCC and load capacitance should be
minimized. When in doubt, it is best to power VCCO or the
entire device from the logic supply and rely on the input PSRR
and CMRR to reject noise.
Overdrive and input slew rate dispersions are not significantly
affected by output loading and VCC variations.
The TTL-/CMOS-compatible output stage is shown in the
simplified schematic diagram (Figure 14). Because of its
inherent symmetry and generally good behavior, this output
stage is readily adaptable for driving various filters and other
unusual loads.

USING/DISABLING THE LATCH FEATURE
The latch input is designed for maximum versatility. It can
safely be left floating for fixed hysteresis or be tied to VCC to
remove the hysteresis, or it can be driven low by any standard
TTL/CMOS device as a high speed latch.
In addition, the pin can be operated as a hysteresis control pin
with a bias voltage of 1.25 V nominal and an input resistance of
approximately 7000 Ω, allowing the comparator hysteresis to be
easily and accurately controlled by either a resistor or an inexpensive
CMOS DAC.
Hysteresis control and latch mode can be used together if an
open drain, an open collector, or a three-state driver is connected
parallel to the hysteresis control resistor or current source.
ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 Preliminary Technical Data
Rev. PrA | Page 10 of 16
Due to the programmable hysteresis feature, the logic threshold
of the latch pin is approximately 1.1 V regardless of VCC.
OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE
As with any high speed comparator, proper design and layout
techniques are essential for obtaining the specified performance.
Stray capacitance, inductance, inductive power and ground
impedances, or other layout issues can severely limit performance
and often cause oscillations. Large discontinuities along input
and output transmission lines can also limit the specified pulse-
width dispersion performance. The source impedance should
be minimized as much as is practicable. High source impedance,
in combination with the parasitic input capacitance of the
comparator, causes an undesirable degradation in bandwidth at
the input, thus degrading the overall response. Thermal noise
from large resistances can easily cause extra jitter with slowly
slewing input signals; higher impedances encourage undesired
coupling.
COMPARATOR PROPAGATION
DELAY DISPERSION
The ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 comparators are
designed to reduce propagation delay dispersion over a wide
input overdrive range of 5 mV to TBD. Propagation delay
dispersion is the variation in propagation delay that results from
a change in the degree of overdrive or slew rate (that is, how far
or how fast the input signal exceeds the switching threshold).
Propagation delay dispersion is a specification that becomes
important in high speed, time-critical applications, such as data
communication, automatic test and measurement, and instru-
mentation. It is also important in event-driven applications, such
as pulse spectroscopy, nuclear instrumentation, and medical
imaging. Dispersion is defined as the variation in propagation
delay as the input overdrive conditions are changed (Figure 15
and Figure 16).
ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 dispersion is typically
<TBD ps as the overdrive varies from 5 mV to 500 mV and the
input slew rate varies from TBD V/ns to TBD V/ns. This
specification applies to both positive and negative signals
because the device has very closely matched delays both for
positive-going and negative-going inputs.

COMPARATOR HYSTERESIS
The addition of hysteresis to a comparator is often desirable in a
noisy environment, or when the differential input amplitudes
are relatively small or slow moving. Figure 17 shows the transfer
function for a comparator with hysteresis. As the input voltage
approaches the threshold (0.0 V, in this example) from below
the threshold region in a positive direction, the comparator
switches from low to high when the input crosses +VH/2, and the
new switching threshold becomes −VH/2. The comparator remains
in the high state until the new threshold, −VH/2, is crossed from
below the threshold region in a negative direction. In this manner,
noise or feedback output signals centered on 0.0 V input cannot
cause the comparator to switch states unless it exceeds the region
bounded by ±VH/2.

Figure 17. Comparator Hysteresis Transfer Function
The customary technique for introducing hysteresis into a
comparator uses positive feedback from the output back to the
input. One limitation of this approach is that the amount of
hysteresis varies with the output logic levels, resulting in
hysteresis that is not symmetric about the threshold. The
external feedback network can also introduce significant
parasitics that reduce high speed performance and induce
oscillation in some cases.
The ADCMP600 features a fixed hysteresis of approximately
2 mV. The ADCMP601 and ADCMP602 comparators offer a
programmable hysteresis feature that can significantly improve
accuracy and stability. Connecting an external pull-down
resistor or a current source from the LE/HYS pin to GND,
varies the amount of hysteresis in a predictable, stable manner.
Preliminary Technical Data ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602
Rev. PrA | Page 11 of 16
Leaving the LE/HYS pin disconnected results in a fixed hysteresis
of 2 mV; driving this pin high removes the hysteresis. The max-
imum hysteresis that can be applied using this pin is approximately
160 mV. Figure 18 illustrates the amount of hysteresis applied as
a function of the external resistor value, and Figure TBD illustrates
hysteresis as a function of the current.
The hysteresis control pin appears as a 1.25 V bias voltage seen
through a series resistance of 7k ± 20% throughout the hysteresis
control range. The advantages of applying hysteresis in this manner
are improved accuracy, improved stability, reduced component
count, and maximum versatility. An external bypass capacitor is
not recommended on the HYS pin because it impairs the latch
function and often degrades the jitter performance of the device.
As described in the Using/Disabling the Latch Feature section,
hysteresis control need not compromise the latch function.
CROSSOVER BIAS POINT
In both op amps and comparators, rail-to-rail inputs of this type
have a dual front-end design. Certain devices are active near the
VCC rail and others are active near the VEE rail. At some predeter-
mined point in the common-mode range, a crossover occurs. At
this point, normally VCC/2, the direction of the bias current reverses
and the measured offset voltages and currents change.
The ADCMP600/ADCMP601/ADCMP602 slightly elaborate
on this scheme. With VCC less than 4 V, this crossover is at the
expected VCC/2, but with VCC greater than 4 V, the crossover point
instead follows VCC 1:1, bringing it to approximately 3 V with VCC at
5 V. This means that when VCC is greater than 4, the comparator
input characteristics more closely resemble those of common
types of inputs that are not rail to rail.
Figure 18. Hysteresis vs. RHYS Control Resistor
MINIMUM INPUT SLEW RATE REQUIREMENT
(Remove if device is stable.)
As with most high speed comparators without hysteresis, a min-
imum slew rate must be met to ensure that the device does not
oscillate as the input signal crosses the threshold. This oscillation
is due to the high gain bandwidth of the comparator in combi-
nation with feedback parasitics inherent in the package and PC
board. A minimum slew rate of TBD V/μs ensures clean output
transitions from the ADCMP601 or ADCMP602 comparator
without hysteresis. In many applications, chattering is not harmful.

Symbol Timing Description
tPDH Input to output high delay Propagation delay measured from the time the input signal crosses the reference (± the
input offset voltage) to the 50% point of an output low-to-high transition.
tPDL Input to output low delay Propagation delay measured from the time the input signal crosses the reference (± the
input offset voltage) to the 50% point of an output high-to-low transition.
tPLOH Latch enable to output high delay Propagation delay measured from the 50% point of the latch enable signal low-to-high
transition to the 50% point of an output low-to-high transition.
tPLOL Latch enable to output low delay Propagation delay measured from the 50% point of the latch enable signal low-to-high
transition to the 50% point of an output high-to-low transition.
tHMinimum hold time Minimum time after the negative transition of the latch enable signal that the input signal
must remain unchanged to be acquired and held at the outputs.
tPL Minimum latch enable pulse width Minimum time that the latch enable signal must be high to acquire an input signal change.
tSMinimum setup time Minimum time before the negative transition of the latch enable signal occurs that an
input signal change must be present to be acquired and held at the outputs.
tROutput rise time Amount of time required to transition from a low to a high output as measured at the 20%
and 80% points.
tFOutput fall time Amount of time required to transition from a high to a low output as measured at the 20%
and 80% points.
VOD Voltage overdrive Difference between the input voltages VA and VB.
