Product details
Overview
MAX40087AUT+T from Analog Devices is a single-channel, decompensated, low-noise operational amplifier optimized for gain ≥ 5V/V stable operation. It delivers 42MHz gain-bandwidth product, 10V/µs slew rate, ultra-low input bias current (0.3pA typ), 4.2nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 30kHz, and 0.00035% THD+N into 1kΩ - enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in transimpedance amplifiers and precision sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MAX40087AUT+T datasheet, MAX40087AUT+T pinout, MAX40087AUT+T application, or MAX40087AUT+T equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, validated SOT23-6 pin mapping, real-world TIA and pH probe use cases, and two confirmed alternative op amps with documented performance trade-offs.
Technical Context
The MAX40087AUT+T employs a decompensated architecture requiring minimum closed-loop gain of +5V/V to ensure stability, distinguishing it from unity-gain-stable variants like MAX40079. Its 42MHz GBWP and 10V/µs slew rate support fast settling in high-speed DAC output buffering and wideband imaging front-ends.
It features rail-to-rail output swing (within 80mV of rails into 1kΩ), input common-mode range extending to ground, and integrated ESD protection with 60Ω series resistors on both inputs - enabling robust interfacing with high-impedance sources such as photodiodes and reference electrodes without external clamping.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise, high-input-impedance operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX40079AUT+T | Unity-gain stable; 10MHz GBWP; 3V/µs slew rate; same 0.3pA IB and 4.2nV/√Hz en. | Preferred for unity-gain buffers, pH probes, and low-bandwidth TIAs where stability at AV = +1 is required. | Select MAX40079AUT+T when gain < +5V/V is needed; MAX40087AUT+T is superior for AV ≥ +5V/V with higher speed demands. |
| OPA377AIDBVR | Unity-gain stable; 10MHz GBWP; 2.5V/µs slew rate; 0.2pA IB; 7.5nV/√Hz en at 1kHz. | Better input bias current but higher voltage noise; lacks shutdown pin and specified operation beyond +85°C. | Choose OPA377AIDBVR for cost-sensitive, commercial-temp applications needing lowest IB; MAX40087AUT+T remains preferred for extended temperature and low-noise TIA designs. |

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain for MAX40087AUT+T?
The MAX40087AUT+T is decompensated and requires a minimum closed-loop gain of +5V/V for stable operation. Attempting unity-gain or gain-of-2 configurations may cause oscillation or excessive ringing. This is explicitly defined in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Phase Margin" and "Gain Margin" conditions for AV = +5 versions. Always verify stability with actual load and PCB parasitics using the recommended feed-forward compensation capacitor CZ when RG||RF exceeds 5kΩ.
Does MAX40087AUT+T support true rail-to-rail input common-mode range?
The MAX40087AUT+T supports rail-to-rail *output* swing but its input common-mode voltage range extends from VSS – 0.1V to VDD – 1.5V over temperature - meaning it includes ground but does not reach VDD. This allows ground-referenced sensor inputs (e.g., pH electrodes, shunt current sense) while maintaining CMRR >87dB. The input stage is not designed for direct VDD-referenced signals without external attenuation or level shifting.
Can MAX40087AUT+T be used in transimpedance amplifier circuits?
Yes, MAX40087AUT+T is explicitly recommended for transimpedance amplifier (TIA) applications in its datasheet, especially where higher bandwidth (>10MHz) and gain ≥ +5V/V are acceptable. Its 0.3pA input bias current minimizes DC error with large feedback resistors (e.g., 100MΩ–1GΩ), and its 42MHz GBWP enables stable operation with photodiode capacitances up to ~10pF when properly compensated. Use CZ = 10 × (RF/RG) pF for optimal phase margin.
What is the shutdown current specification for MAX40087AUT+T?
The shutdown supply current for MAX40087AUT+T is 0.4µA maximum, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Shutdown Supply Current (ISHDN)" with SHDN = GND. During shutdown, the output enters a high-impedance state, and all internal bias currents are reduced. This feature is exclusive to the single-channel variants (MAX40079/MAX40087) and is not available on dual or quad versions of the family.
Is MAX40087AUT+T qualified for automotive applications?
MAX40087AUT+T is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C and meets AEC-Q100 stress test requirements per Analog Devices' qualification report for the MAX400xx family. It is suitable for under-hood and cabin automotive applications including battery monitoring, exhaust gas sensing, and HVAC sensor interfaces - provided board-level ESD and EMC design guidelines are followed per Application Note AN1891.
