MAX4030E/MAX4031E
Detailed Description
The MAX4030E/MAX4031E dual/triple, 5V operational
amplifiers achieve 115V/s slew rates and 144MHz
bandwidths. High ±15kV ESD protection at video inputs
and outputs guards against unexpected discharge.
Excellent harmonic distortion and differential gain/
phase performance make these amplifiers an ideal
choice for a wide variety of video and RF signal-pro-
cessing applications.
Ground-Sensing Inputs
The MAX4030E/MAX4031E input stage can sense com-
mon-mode voltages from ground to within 2.25V of the
positive supply.
Rail-to-Rail Outputs
The MAX4030E/MAX4031E rail-to-rail outputs can
swing to within 100mV of each supply because local
feedback around the output stage ensures low open-
loop output impedance, reducing gain sensitivity to
load variations.
Shutdown (MAX4031E Only)
The MAX4031E offers individual shutdown control for
each amplifier. Drive SHDN_ low to shut down the
amplifier. In shutdown, the amplifier output impedance
is high impedance.
Applications Information
Choosing Resistor Values
Unity-Gain Configuration
The MAX4030E/MAX4031E are internally compensated
for unity gain. When configured for unity gain, a 24
resistor (RF) in series with the feedback path optimizes
AC performance. This resistor improves AC response by
reducing the Q of the parallel LC circuit formed by the
parasitic feedback capacitance and lead inductance.
Video Line Driver
The MAX4030E/MAX4031E are low-power, voltage-
feedback amplifiers featuring bandwidths up to 40MHz
and 0.1dB gain flatness to 9MHz. They are designed to
minimize differential-gain error and differential-phase
error to 0.2% and 0.2°, respectively. They have a 40ns
settling time to 0.1%, 110V/s slew rates, and output-
current-drive capability of up to 50mA, making them
ideal for driving video loads.
Inverting and Noninverting Configurations
Select the feedback (RF) and input (RG) resistor values
to fit the gain requirements of the application. Large
resistor values increase voltage noise and interact with
the amplifier’s input and PC board capacitance. This
can generate undesirable poles and zeros and
