Product details
Overview
MAX4267ESA from Maxim Integrated is a single-channel, ultra-low-distortion, voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for high-frequency signal conditioning with minimum stable gain of +5V/V. It delivers 300MHz -3dB bandwidth, 900V/µs slew rate, and -47dBc spurious-free dynamic range at 100MHz while driving a 100Ω load - making it suitable for high-speed ADC drivers in RF telecom infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4267ESA datasheet, MAX4267ESA pinout, MAX4267ESA application, or MAX4267ESA equivalent, this op amp is selected for precision wideband analog signal paths requiring low THD, high output drive (±45mA), and fast enable/disable control (100ns/750µs) in space-constrained designs using the 8-pin µMAX package.
Technical Context
The MAX4267ESA uses proprietary bipolar process technology to achieve ultra-low distortion in single-supply operation (+4.5V to +8.0V), with input common-mode range extending from (VEE + 1.6V) to (VCC – 1.6V) and rail-to-rail output swing capability (within 1.1V of rails). Its decompensated internal architecture enables stable +5V/V minimum gain operation while preserving 300MHz bandwidth and 55MHz 0.1dB gain flatness.
It integrates an active-low disable function that reduces quiescent current to 1.6mA per amplifier and places outputs in high-impedance state, supporting power-gated signal chains. Input voltage noise density is 8nV/√Hz at 1kHz, and third-harmonic distortion remains below -61dBc at 100MHz under 1Vp-p output conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Pinout & Package
The MAX4267ESA is housed in an 8-pin µMAX® package (pin-compatible with SO-8), measuring 3mm × 3mm with exposed thermal pad. This thermally enhanced surface-mount package supports high-power-density PCB layouts in RF and high-speed analog modules.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8009ARZ | Unity-gain stable; higher 1GHz bandwidth but lower SFDR (-38dBc at 100MHz); no disable function | Better for general-purpose high-speed buffering where gain ≥1V/V suffices and power gating is unnecessary | Select when unity-gain stability and maximum bandwidth outweigh SFDR and disable requirements |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Unity-gain stable; 1.5GHz bandwidth; 5.8nV/√Hz noise; no disable; requires dual supply for optimal distortion | Preferred for ultra-wideband test equipment front-ends where lowest noise and highest speed dominate | Choose when system design permits dual ±2.5V supplies and SFDR > -45dBc at 100MHz is not mandatory |
Compared with AD8009ARZ and LMH6629MA/NOPB, the MAX4267ESA trades raw bandwidth for superior distortion performance at 100MHz and integrated power management - making it uniquely suited for battery-aware or spectral-purity-critical RF signal chains requiring +5V/V gain.

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain configuration for the MAX4267ESA?
The MAX4267ESA is internally compensated for a minimum stable closed-loop gain of +5V/V. It is not unity-gain stable; attempting to operate at gains below +5V/V may cause instability or peaking in frequency response. For lower-gain applications, consider the MAX4265ESA (unity-gain stable) or MAX4266ESA (+2V/V minimum).
Does the MAX4267ESA support single-supply operation?
Yes, the MAX4267ESA operates from a single +4.5V to +8.0V supply. Its input common-mode range extends from (VEE + 1.6V) to (VCC – 1.6V), and its output swings within 1.1V of each rail - enabling true single-supply functionality in DC-coupled signal paths without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical SFDR performance of the MAX4267ESA at 100MHz?
The MAX4267ESA achieves -47dBc spurious-free dynamic range at 100MHz with 1Vp-p output into a 100Ω load. This value is measured under standard conditions (VCC = +5V, VEE = 0, TA = +25°C) and reflects its suitability for high-fidelity RF signal conditioning where harmonic suppression is critical.
How does the disable function affect output state on the MAX4267ESA?
When the DISABLE pin is pulled low, the MAX4267ESA reduces quiescent current to 1.6mA per amplifier and places the output in a high-impedance state - effectively disconnecting it from the load. This behavior prevents loading of downstream circuits during sleep or standby modes, and recovery to full operation occurs within 100ns after DISABLE is returned high.
Can the MAX4267ESA drive a 50Ω transmission line directly?
Yes - the MAX4267ESA delivers ±45mA into 100Ω and maintains low distortion, making it capable of driving 50Ω loads with appropriate gain-setting resistors. For back-terminated 50Ω lines, configure as a noninverting +5V/V amplifier with matched source termination; ensure proper PCB layout and local bypassing to preserve 300MHz bandwidth and stability.
