AI Summary

MAX961ESA by Analog Devices: Comparator Standard (General Purpose) CMOS, Complementary, TTL 8-SOIC.

This is the direct, lead-free/RoHS-compliant replacement part designated by the manufacturer. It has the exact same electrical performance and physical pin layout as the original obsolete part, requiring zero changes to your PCB or system design.

  • Direct lead-free/RoHS-compliant replacement of the obsolete MAX961ESA.
  • Identical 7ns propagation delay and 5mA supply current.
  • 100% drop-in compatible with the exact same 8-SOIC package pinout.

This is an active sibling variant from the same product series housed in a space-saving 8-pin µMAX package. It is functionally identical to the original part but requires a land pattern change on your PCB.

  • Identical electrical specifications, including the ultra-high 7ns speed and latch-enable function.
  • Significantly smaller package footprint (µMAX-8) reduces board space.
  • Saves approximately 50% PCB area compared to the standard 8-SOIC.
  • Requires board layout redesign due to package pitch and width differences.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The Analog Devices MAX961ESA is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
