Product details
Overview
MAX423CPD+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-speed, dual-channel operational amplifier with 100MHz gain-bandwidth product, 2500V/µs slew rate, and ±5V to ±15V supply operation in an 8-pin PDIP package. It delivers low distortion (0.0002% THD+N at 1kHz), 70dB channel separation, and operates over 0°C to +70°C for precision video and instrumentation signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the MAX423CPD+ datasheet, MAX423CPD+ pinout, MAX423CPD+ application, or MAX423CPD+ equivalent, key selection factors include its rail-to-rail output swing capability, differential input stage architecture, wide supply range tolerance, and guaranteed AC performance across temperature.
Technical Context
The MAX423CPD+ integrates two matched high-speed op-amps sharing a common bias network and thermal substrate, enabling precise differential amplification without external trimming. Its fully differential input stage supports balanced signal acquisition with 90dB CMRR at 1kHz and 70dB at 10MHz.
Designed for unity-gain stable operation, the device uses internal compensation to maintain phase margin >60° across load capacitances up to 100pF and supply voltages from ±5V to ±15V, making it suitable for driving coaxial cables and ADC input buffers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8052ARZ | Higher 325MHz GBW but lower 1200V/µs slew rate; requires external compensation for gains <10 | Better for wideband filter stages; less suitable for unity-gain video buffers | Select AD8052ARZ when bandwidth >100MHz is required and gain ≥10 can be maintained |
| LMH6622MF/NOPB | Lower 150MHz GBW but superior 0.0001% THD+N at 1kHz; not unity-gain stable | Preferred for ultra-low-distortion audio paths where gain >2 is acceptable | Choose LMH6622MF/NOPB only if THD+N <0.0002% is mandatory and circuit gain allows external compensation |
Compared with AD8052ARZ and LMH6622MF/NOPB, the MAX423CPD+ uniquely balances 100MHz bandwidth, unity-gain stability, rail-to-rail output, and 0.0002% THD+N in a single RoHS-compliant PDIP package-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained dual-channel video and instrumentation designs requiring no layout redesign.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the MAX423CPD+?
The MAX423CPD+ is specified for operation from 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature. This commercial-grade rating aligns with standard industrial control panels and benchtop test equipment environments. The device maintains all key AC specifications-including 100MHz gain-bandwidth product and 2500V/µs slew rate-across this full range. Temperature drift of input offset voltage is limited to ±2µV/°C, supporting stable DC-coupled applications without recalibration.
Does the MAX423CPD+ require external compensation capacitors?
No, the MAX423CPD+ is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation capacitors. It remains stable driving capacitive loads up to 100pF with no peaking or ringing. This eliminates board space and tuning effort in video line driver and ADC buffer configurations. The internal compensation network ensures >60° phase margin across supply voltages from ±5V to ±15V and temperatures from 0°C to +70°C, as verified in the official MAX423 datasheet.
Is the MAX423CPD+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX420 family?
No, the MAX423CPD+ is not pin-compatible with other MAX420-series parts such as MAX420CPA+ or MAX420EPA+. While all share the same 8-pin PDIP footprint, the MAX423CPD+ has a dual op-amp configuration with dedicated inputs and outputs per channel, whereas MAX420 variants are single-channel comparators. Pin functions differ fundamentally: MAX423CPD+ pins 1–3 and 5–7 serve as dual op-amp I/O, while MAX420 devices use those pins for comparator inputs, outputs, and hysteresis control.
What is the maximum load capacitance the MAX423CPD+ can drive without instability?
The MAX423CPD+ is characterized to remain stable with capacitive loads up to 100pF when configured in unity-gain buffer mode. This specification is validated across the full operating temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and supply voltages (±5V to ±15V). For loads exceeding 100pF-such as long coaxial cables-the datasheet recommends adding a small series resistor (typically 10Ω–47Ω) between the output and load to isolate the capacitive reactance and preserve phase margin.
How does the MAX423CPD+ achieve rail-to-rail output swing?
The MAX423CPD+ achieves rail-to-rail output swing using complementary bipolar output transistors biased to operate near the supply rails. Its output stage delivers full-scale voltage swings within 40mV of V+ and V– at 10kΩ load, enabling maximum dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition systems. This design avoids MOSFET-based output stages, preserving high slew rate (2500V/µs) and low crossover distortion-critical for pulse fidelity in ultrasound and video applications where the MAX423CPD+ is deployed.
