Product details
Overview
The MAX4310ESA+T from Maxim Integrated is a 2-channel, unity-gain-stable video multiplexer-amplifier with rail-to-rail output, 345MHz −3dB bandwidth, 40ns channel switching time, and 10mVp-p switching transient-designed for broadcast video signal routing in SD/HD analog video systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4310ESA+T datasheet, MAX4310ESA+T pinout, MAX4310ESA+T application, or MAX4310ESA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its single-supply operation (4V to 10.5V), differential gain/phase error (0.06%/0.08°), shutdown current (560µA), 8-pin SO package, and compatibility with 75Ω back-terminated video lines.
Technical Context
The MAX4310ESA+T integrates a 2:1 analog multiplexer with an adjustable-gain voltage-feedback amplifier optimized for ≥+1V/V closed-loop configurations. Its input common-mode range extends to the negative rail, enabling ground-sensing video inputs without level-shifting circuitry.
It delivers rail-to-rail output swing into 150Ω (within 730mV of VCC, 30mV above VEE) and maintains low open-loop output impedance (8Ω) across full output voltage range-minimizing gain error under varying load conditions typical in video distribution.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX4310ESA+T is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (5.0mm × 6.2mm, 1.27mm pitch).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| SHDN | Active-low shutdown control | Pulls output to high-impedance and reduces ICC to 560µA when ≤ VIL |
| VCC | Positive supply rail | Accepts +4V to +10.5V; bypassing with 100nF ceramic capacitor required at pin |
| IN0 / IN1 | Differential video input channels | High-impedance, 2pF constant input capacitance regardless of channel state |
| OUT | Rail-to-rail video output | Drives 150Ω to within 730mV of VCC and 30mV above VEE; open-loop ZOUT = 8Ω |
| GND | Ground reference | Single-supply return; must connect to low-impedance ground plane per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar video multiplexer-amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4313ESA+T | Fixed +2V/V gain, 150MHz −3dB bandwidth, same 8-pin SO package | Better suited for driving back-terminated 75Ω cables where gain boost is required | Select when system requires fixed 6dB gain and lower bandwidth suffices for target resolution |
| THS4302DR | Single-channel, 1.8GHz bandwidth, no integrated mux, SO-8 package | Lacks multiplexing function; requires external analog switches for source selection | Choose only if higher bandwidth (>1GHz) is critical and mux functionality is implemented separately |
Compared with MAX4313ESA+T and THS4302DR, the MAX4310ESA+T uniquely combines 2:1 multiplexing, unity-gain stability, and broadcast-grade video fidelity in one 8-pin SO device-making it optimal for compact, cost-sensitive SD/HD video routing where gain flexibility and minimal switching artifacts are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the MAX4310ESA+T?
The MAX4310ESA+T operates from a single supply of +4V to +10.5V, or dual supplies of ±2V to ±5.25V. Absolute maximum supply voltage is 12V (VCC to VEE). Exceeding this risks permanent damage. For reliable operation in video systems, +5V or +9V single supply is commonly used to balance headroom and power dissipation in the MAX4310ESA+T.
Does the MAX4310ESA+T support DC-coupled video inputs?
Yes, the MAX4310ESA+T supports DC-coupled video inputs because its input common-mode voltage range extends to the negative supply rail (VEE). In single-supply operation with VEE = GND, this allows input signals down to 0V-enabling direct connection of baseband video signals without AC coupling or level-shifting circuitry, preserving low-frequency response critical for sync pulses in the MAX4310ESA+T.
What is the output drive capability of the MAX4310ESA+T into 75Ω loads?
The MAX4310ESA+T drives 150Ω loads to within 730mV of VCC and 30mV above VEE. When configured for 75Ω back-terminated video lines (e.g., using 75Ω series resistor at output), it delivers full-swing video signals with <0.06% differential gain error-meeting broadcast standards. Peak output current is ±95mA, sufficient for driving multiple 75Ω loads in parallel configurations of the MAX4310ESA+T.
How does the shutdown mode affect the output state of the MAX4310ESA+T?
When SHDN is driven low, the MAX4310ESA+T enters low-power shutdown mode: quiescent supply current drops to 560µA, and the output is placed in a high-impedance state (typically >35kΩ). This allows safe paralleling of multiple MAX4310ESA+T outputs in large video matrices-only the active device drives the bus while others present negligible loading, preserving signal integrity across the entire MAX4310ESA+T array.
Can the MAX4310ESA+T be used in place of the MAX4311 or MAX4312?
No-the MAX4310ESA+T is a 2-channel multiplexer, whereas MAX4311 is 4-channel and MAX4312 is 8-channel; pin count, address logic (A1/A2), and internal switch architecture differ fundamentally. Substituting them would require PCB redesign and firmware changes. The MAX4310ESA+T is not pin-compatible or functionally interchangeable with MAX4311 or MAX4312-each is optimized for its specific channel count and layout in the MAX4310ESA+T family.
