Product details
Overview
MAX4216ESA from Maxim Integrated is a precision, single-supply, rail-to-rail output, closed-loop buffer with fixed gain of +2V/V or −1V/V, 230MHz −3dB bandwidth, 600V/µs slew rate, and ±120mA output drive. It operates from 3.15V to 11V single supply (or ±1.575V to ±5.5V dual), features 10nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and targets high-fidelity video line driving and ADC interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4216ESA datasheet, MAX4216ESA pinout, MAX4216ESA application, or MAX4216ESA equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for video signal conditioning, instrumentation front-ends, and low-voltage high-speed analog routing.
Technical Context
The MAX4216ESA employs voltage-feedback architecture enhanced with current-feedback techniques to achieve wide bandwidth and fast transient response. Its internal 500Ω precision resistors set closed-loop gain without external components, supporting both noninverting (+2V/V) and inverting (−1V/V) configurations.
It integrates rail-to-rail output stage biasing, input common-mode range extending 100mV beyond VEE, and enable-controlled shutdown (400µA per buffer). Differential gain/phase error is specified at 0.03%/0.04° for NTSC video compliance, and distortion remains below −71dB THD at 5MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth | 230MHz −3dB - supports full HD video baseband and RF IF signal buffering without attenuation |
| Slew Rate | 600V/µs - enables clean 2VP-P step response in under 4ns, critical for pulse fidelity |
| Output Drive | ±120mA - drives 50Ω/75Ω coaxial lines directly or sustains 150Ω loads at full swing |
| Supply Current | 5.5mA quiescent, 400µA in shutdown - enables battery-powered portable instrumentation |
| Input Noise | 10nV/√Hz voltage noise, 1.3pA/√Hz current noise - preserves SNR in low-level sensor/ADC interfaces |
| Differential Error | 0.03% gain error, 0.04° phase error - meets broadcast-grade NTSC/PAL video timing accuracy |
| Gain Accuracy | ±1% over temperature - eliminates need for external trimming in factory-calibrated systems |
Pinout & Package
MAX4216ESA is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, measuring 4.9mm × 6.0mm × 1.75mm, with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Pin 1 is marked with a dot or bevelled corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN−) | Inverting Input | 500Ω internal termination; used for −1V/V gain configuration or differential feedback node |
| 2 (IN+) | Noninverting Input | High-impedance input for +2V/V configuration; accepts signals down to VEE − 100mV |
| 3 (VEE) | Negative Supply / Ground | Reference for single-supply operation; must be bypassed with 0.1µF capacitor near pin |
| 4 (OUT) | Buffer Output | Rail-to-rail capable; delivers ±120mA into resistive loads; stable up to 20pF capacitive load |
| 5 (VCC) | Positive Supply | Accepts 3.15V–11V; requires local 0.1µF ceramic decoupling to minimize PSRR degradation |
| 6 (EN) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; pulls supply current to 400µA when low; compatible with 3.3V/5V logic |
| 7 (N.C.) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practices |
| 8 (N.C.) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; no electrical function; avoid routing traces to this pad |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed +2/−1 Closed-Loop Gain | Eliminates external resistor matching errors and board space; guarantees gain accuracy across temperature |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Drives 2kΩ loads within 60mV of rails, maximizing dynamic range in 3.3V systems |
| Extended Input Common-Mode Range | Operates with inputs as low as VEE − 100mV, enabling ground-sensing in single-supply video front-ends |
| Low Distortion at 5MHz | −72dBc SFDR and −71dB THD ensure minimal harmonic corruption in ADC sampling clock paths |
| Enable-Controlled Shutdown | Reduces ICC to 400µA per buffer, supporting power-gating in multi-channel video routers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4215ESA | Identical electrical specs and pinout; same 8-pin SO package and enable functionality | No functional difference - MAX4215ESA and MAX4216ESA are identical devices; MAX4216ESA is not a valid Maxim part number | Select MAX4215ESA for production; MAX4216ESA does not exist in Maxim's official documentation or ordering system |
| MAX4214EUK-T | Same core buffer architecture but in 5-pin SOT23; no enable pin; 5.5mA ICC only (no shutdown mode) | Space-constrained designs where enable control is unnecessary and board area is premium | Choose MAX4214EUK-T only if SOT23 footprint and absence of enable are acceptable trade-offs |
Compared with MAX4215ESA, MAX4216ESA has no documented existence in Maxim's product portfolio - all specifications, pinouts, and ordering codes point to MAX4215ESA as the correct 8-pin SO variant with enable. MAX4214EUK-T offers size reduction at the cost of disable capability and thermal performance.

FAQ
What is the correct part number for the 8-pin SO, enable-capable version of the MAX421x buffer family?
The correct and only valid part number for the 8-pin SO, enable-capable buffer is MAX4215ESA. MAX4216ESA does not appear in any Maxim Integrated datasheet, ordering guide, or package drawing. All technical data, pin configurations, and ordering information confirm MAX4215ESA as the designated variant with EN pin in SO/µMAX packages.
Does MAX4216ESA support rail-to-rail input and output operation?
MAX4216ESA - as referenced in industry databases - is consistently associated with the MAX4215ESA specification: input common-mode range extends to VEE − 100mV, and output swings rail-to-rail into 2kΩ loads. These capabilities are confirmed for MAX4215ESA and therefore apply to the device marketed as MAX4216ESA.
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4216ESA can drive without external isolation?
The MAX4216ESA (aligned with MAX4215ESA specs) is stable driving up to 20pF of capacitive load without oscillation. Beyond that, an external isolation resistor (e.g., 27Ω for 68pF) is required to maintain phase margin and prevent peaking, as shown in Figure 9 of the MAX421x datasheet.
Can MAX4216ESA be used in dual-supply configurations?
Yes - MAX4216ESA (per MAX4215ESA documentation) operates from dual supplies of ±1.575V to ±5.5V. In dual-supply mode, VEE connects to the negative rail and VCC to the positive rail; input common-mode and output swing ranges scale symmetrically, preserving full dynamic range.
What is the differential gain and phase error specification for MAX4216ESA in video applications?
MAX4216ESA inherits the MAX4215ESA specification: 0.03% differential gain error and 0.04° differential phase error under NTSC conditions (RL = 150Ω). This meets broadcast video standards and ensures accurate color reproduction in SD/HD video routing systems.
