Product details
Overview
MAX4315EEE+ from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel, fixed-gain (+2V/V) video multiplexer-amplifier optimized for back-terminated 75Ω cable driving in broadcast and medical imaging systems. It delivers 97MHz -3dB bandwidth, 310V/µs slew rate, 40ns channel switching time, and 0.09% differential gain error with rail-to-rail output swing into 150Ω loads.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4315EEE+ datasheet, MAX4315EEE+ pinout, MAX4315EEE+ application, or MAX4315EEE+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-channel analog switching capability, fixed +2V/V gain architecture, low 10mVp-p switching transient, shutdown mode (560µA), and QSOP-16 package compatibility with high-density video routing layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX4315EEE+ integrates an 8-input analog multiplexer with a voltage-feedback amplifier featuring internally trimmed 500Ω thin-film feedback resistors to fix gain at +2V/V. Its architecture targets impedance-matched video signal distribution where consistent gain, minimal crosstalk (-52dB all-hostile), and fast settling (25ns to 0.1%) are critical.
It operates from single +4V to +10.5V or dual ±2V to ±5.25V supplies, supports input common-mode range extending to VEE, and maintains rail-to-rail output drive (±95mA) while limiting quiescent current to 7.4mA - enabling low-power, high-channel-count video switching without external gain-setting components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| -3dB Bandwidth | 97MHz - supports full NTSC/PAL and SDI baseband video signals without attenuation |
| Slew Rate | 310V/µs - ensures faithful reproduction of fast video edges and sync pulses |
| Channel Switching Time | 40ns - enables rapid source selection in multi-camera or multi-display systems |
| Differential Gain Error | 0.09% - preserves color fidelity in broadcast-grade video transmission |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 7.4mA - balances performance and power efficiency in always-on video infrastructure |
| Shutdown Current | 560µA - allows dynamic power gating in portable or battery-backed video equipment |
| Output Impedance | 0.025Ω - minimizes gain variation across varying 75Ω cable lengths and terminations |
Pinout & Package
MAX4315EEE+ is housed in a 16-pin QSOP package (5.3mm × 10.2mm, 0.635mm pitch), optimized for compact video routing PCBs with thermal and EMI performance suitable for industrial and broadcast environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0, A1, A2 | Channel address inputs | 3-bit binary select for 8 analog inputs; TTL/CMOS compatible with VIL ≤ VEE+1V, VIH ≥ VCC−1V |
| SHDN | Active-low shutdown control | Pulls outputs to high-impedance and reduces ICC to 560µA; requires no external pull-up when unused |
| VCC, VEE | Power supply pins | Support single-supply operation (4V–10.5V) or dual supplies (±2V–±5.25V); VEE serves as ground reference in single-supply mode |
| IN0–IN7 | Analog multiplexer inputs | Eight independent 75Ω-optimized inputs; input capacitance stable at 2pF regardless of channel state |
| OUT | Amplified multiplexer output | Rail-to-rail output capable of driving 150Ω loads to within 730mV of rails; open-loop ZOUT = 0.025Ω |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for power and logic; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed +2V/V gain architecture | Eliminates external feedback resistors, reducing component count and layout sensitivity in 75Ω video line drivers |
| Ultra-low switching transient | 10mVp-p glitch amplitude prevents visible artifacts during real-time video source switching |
| Rail-to-rail output drive | Delivers full-swing video signals into 150Ω loads without clipping, supporting both AC-coupled and DC-coupled interfaces |
| Input common-mode range to VEE | Enables ground-referenced video sources (e.g., composite sync) without level-shifting circuitry |
| All-hostile crosstalk suppression | −52dB at 10MHz ensures isolation between active and inactive channels in dense multi-source systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar video multiplexer-amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4314EEE+ | 4-channel version with identical +2V/V gain, 127MHz bandwidth, and same QSOP-16 package | Lower channel count suits smaller-scale routing (e.g., quad-camera systems) | Select when fewer than 8 inputs are required to reduce board area and cost |
| MAX4312EEE+ | 8-channel, adjustable-gain (+1V/V min) variant with 265MHz bandwidth but higher 7.4mA ICC and different feedback configuration | Requires external gain-setting resistors; better suited for variable-gain video processing stages | Choose only if programmable gain or wider bandwidth (>97MHz) is mandatory; not drop-in compatible |
Compared with MAX4314EEE+ and MAX4312EEE+, the MAX4315EEE+ provides the highest channel density among fixed-gain variants while maintaining optimal 75Ω drive capability and lowest differential gain error - making it the preferred choice for 8-input broadcast and medical video routing where gain stability and color fidelity are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the MAX4315EEE+?
The MAX4315EEE+ operates from a single +4V to +10.5V supply or dual ±2V to ±5.25V supplies. In single-supply configurations, VEE is tied to ground, and the input common-mode range extends to VEE (0V), enabling direct interfacing with ground-referenced video sources without level shifting. This flexibility supports both legacy and modern power architectures in video equipment.
Does the MAX4315EEE+ require external gain-setting resistors?
No, the MAX4315EEE+ does not require external gain-setting resistors. It integrates precision 500Ω thin-film feedback resistors to fix the closed-loop gain at +2V/V (6dB). This eliminates resistor matching errors, layout sensitivity, and parasitic effects - ensuring consistent gain flatness and differential performance across production units and temperature ranges.
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4315EEE+ can drive stably?
The MAX4315EEE+ remains stable driving up to 47pF with proper layout and bypassing. For heavier capacitive loads (e.g., >50pF), an external series isolation resistor (RISO ≈ 27Ω) placed between OUT and the load restores phase margin and suppresses ringing, as validated in Maxim's application circuits. This technique preserves signal integrity when driving long traces or multiple parallel inputs.
How does the MAX4315EEE+ handle channel switching transients?
The MAX4315EEE+ achieves ultra-low 10mVp-p switching transients through matched internal switch design and optimized amplifier settling. Its 40ns channel switching time and 25ns 0.1% settling ensure clean transitions between video sources - preventing visible glitches, tearing, or color shifts during real-time switching in professional broadcast and medical imaging systems.
Is the MAX4315EEE+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX4310–MAX4315 family?
The MAX4315EEE+ shares the same 16-pin QSOP footprint with MAX4312EEE+ and MAX4314EEE+, but pin functions differ for IN3–IN7 and FB/GND assignments. Specifically, MAX4315EEE+ uses pins 10–13 for IN4–IN7 and pin 15 for GND, whereas MAX4312EEE+ assigns those pins differently. Therefore, it is not pin-compatible across the family - PCB layout must match the exact variant.
