Product details
Overview
MAX4233ABC+G45 from Maxim Integrated is a dual, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier with independent shutdown control per channel, 10MHz gain-bandwidth product, 10V/µs slew rate, and 200mA peak output drive capability. It operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply, features ±6mV input offset voltage, and is packaged in a 10-bump UCSP (1.5mm × 1.5mm) for space-constrained RF PA biasing and portable audio applications.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4233ABC+G45 datasheet, MAX4233ABC+G45 pinout, MAX4233ABC+G45 application, or MAX4233ABC+G45 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-channel independent shutdown timing (1µs enable/shutdown), output swing within 500mV of rails at 32Ω load, capacitive-load stability up to 780pF, and automotive-grade operation from –40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX4233ABC+G45 integrates two parallel n- and p-channel differential input stages enabling true rail-to-rail common-mode input range (VSS to VDD), with active switching between input pairs based on input voltage level. Its output stage delivers rail-to-rail swing while sourcing/sinking up to 200mA peak current under 5V supply.
Each amplifier includes a dedicated SHDN pin that actively drives the output to VSS (<120mV at 200Ω load) when asserted low, reducing quiescent current to <1µA per channel. The device maintains unity-gain stability with capacitive loads ≤780pF and exhibits 70° phase margin at 10MHz GBWP.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (C1) | OUT1 | Amplifier 1 output - rail-to-rail capable, sinks/sources 200mA peak, driven low in SHDN1 |
| 2 (C2) | IN1− | Inverting input of Amp1 - part of parallel CMOS input pair enabling VSS-to-VDD common-mode range |
| 3 (C3) | IN1+ | Noninverting input of Amp1 - same rail-to-rail input structure as IN1− |
| 4 (B1) | VDD | Positive supply - accepts 2.7V–5.5V single supply; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass to VSS |
| 5 (A1) | OUT2 | Amplifier 2 output - independently controlled, identical drive and shutdown behavior as OUT1 |
| 6 (A2) | IN2− | Inverting input of Amp2 - electrically isolated from Amp1; supports dual-channel signal paths |
| 7 (A3) | IN2+ | Noninverting input of Amp2 - matched offset and bias performance vs. Amp1 inputs |
| 8 (B4) | VSS | Negative supply / ground - reference for single-supply operation; exposed pad tied to VSS |
| 9 (C4) | SHDN2 | Shutdown control for Amp2 - logic-low disables Amp2 and forces OUT2 to VSS |
| 10 (A4) | SHDN1 | Shutdown control for Amp1 - independent of SHDN2; enables per-channel power gating |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual op amp with shutdown applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4233AUB+T | Same die, 10-pin µMAX package (3mm × 3mm) - larger footprint, higher thermal resistance (4.5mW/°C derating) | Better suited for prototyping or manual assembly due to larger pitch (0.65mm vs UCSP's 0.5mm); less ideal for ultra-dense RF modules | Select MAX4233AUB+T if board layout allows larger package and thermal management is prioritized over size |
| OPA2350UA/2K5 | TI dual RRIO op amp; 38MHz GBWP, 22V/µs slew, but no shutdown function and only 60mA output drive | Lacks per-channel shutdown and insufficient drive for direct 32Ω headphone or RF PA bias - requires external FETs or boost stages | Choose OPA2350UA only when higher speed is required and shutdown is implemented externally |
Compared with MAX4233AUB+T and OPA2350UA, MAX4233ABC+G45 uniquely combines ultra-small UCSP packaging, independent dual shutdown, and 200mA drive - enabling single-chip RF PA bias and stereo audio drive without auxiliary components.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for MAX4233ABC+G45?
The MAX4233ABC+G45 is specified for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C, meeting AEC-Q100 stress test requirements for automotive applications. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including input offset voltage, supply current, and output drive capability - ensuring reliability in under-hood and infotainment environments where MAX4233ABC+G45 is commonly deployed.
Does MAX4233ABC+G45 support true rail-to-rail input and output?
Yes, MAX4233ABC+G45 features a parallel n- and p-channel input stage enabling common-mode input voltage range from VSS to VDD, and an output stage that swings within 500mV of both rails into 32Ω loads at 2.7V supply. This rail-to-rail I/O performance is guaranteed across the full –40°C to +125°C range and is essential for maximizing dynamic range in low-voltage portable and automotive systems using MAX4233ABC+G45.
How does the shutdown function work on MAX4233ABC+G45?
MAX4233ABC+G45 provides two independent shutdown pins (SHDN1 and SHDN2). When either pin is pulled low, its corresponding amplifier disables, reducing supply current to <1µA and actively driving the output to VSS (≤120mV at 200Ω). Enable/disable timing is 1µs, and power-up settles within 5µs. This per-channel control allows dynamic power gating in multi-function systems using MAX4233ABC+G45 - such as disabling one op amp during receive-only RF modes.
Can MAX4233ABC+G45 drive a 32Ω headphone load directly?
Yes, MAX4233ABC+G45 delivers 200mA peak output current and rail-to-rail swing, enabling direct drive of 32Ω stereo headphones at 60mW/channel with <1% THD+N at 10kHz. Its 10MHz GBWP and 10V/µs slew rate preserve audio fidelity across the audible band. The UCSP package's low thermal resistance supports sustained output without derating - a key advantage of MAX4233ABC+G45 in compact portable designs.
What is the maximum capacitive load MAX4233ABC+G45 can drive stably?
MAX4233ABC+G45 is unity-gain stable with capacitive loads up to 780pF into resistive loads ≥100Ω, as verified in production testing. This eliminates the need for series isolation resistors when driving ADC inputs, anti-alias filters, or long PCB traces - simplifying design and improving signal integrity. For loads exceeding 780pF, adding a small series resistor (e.g., 10Ω–39Ω) restores stability, a behavior confirmed in MAX4233ABC+G45's typical operating characteristics.
