Product details
Overview
MAX4315ESE+T from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel, fixed-gain (+2V/V) video multiplexer-amplifier optimized for back-terminated 75Ω cable driving in broadcast video 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 MAX4315ESE+T datasheet, MAX4315ESE+T pinout, MAX4315ESE+T application, or MAX4315ESE+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed +2V/V gain architecture, 16-pin narrow SO package, shutdown current of 560µA, 10mVp-p switching transient, and suitability for high-fidelity video crosspoint switching and flash ADC input buffering.
Technical Context
The MAX4315ESE+T 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 low-distortion driving of back-terminated coaxial cables, with open-loop output impedance of only 0.025Ω ensuring minimal gain error under load.
It operates from single +4V to +10.5V or dual ±2V to ±5.25V supplies, supports rail-to-rail output swing (within 730mV of VCC, 30mV above VEE), and accepts input common-mode voltages down to the negative rail - enabling ground-sensing operation in single-supply video signal chains.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar video multiplexer-amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4315EEE+ | Same electrical specs; packaged in 16-pin QSOP instead of narrow SO | QSOP offers higher pin density but lower thermal dissipation than narrow SO | Select MAX4315EEE+ for space-constrained PCBs where thermal load is managed externally |
| MAX4314ESD+ | 4-channel variant with same +2V/V gain, 127MHz bandwidth, and 14-pin narrow SO package | Lower channel count; suited for smaller-scale video switching or cost-sensitive 4-input designs | Choose MAX4314ESD+ when only four inputs are required and board real estate permits 14-pin footprint |
Compared with MAX4315EEE+ and MAX4314ESD+, the MAX4315ESE+T provides identical 8-channel functionality in the industry-standard 16-pin narrow SO package, offering optimal thermal performance and compatibility with legacy SO footprints used in broadcast equipment.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the MAX4315ESE+T?
The MAX4315ESE+T operates from a single +4V to +10.5V supply or dual ±2V to ±5.25V supplies. This wide range supports both portable battery-powered video gear and line-powered broadcast equipment. The device maintains specified AC performance across this entire range, including 97MHz bandwidth and 0.09% differential gain error at +5V operation - making MAX4315ESE+T suitable for flexible power architecture design.
Does the MAX4315ESE+T require external gain-setting resistors?
No, the MAX4315ESE+T does not require external gain-setting resistors. It features an internally trimmed +2V/V fixed-gain amplifier using precision 500Ω thin-film resistors. This eliminates component count, layout sensitivity, and gain drift associated with external feedback networks - a key advantage over adjustable-gain mux-amps like the MAX4312. The internal architecture ensures consistent 2.0V/V gain across temperature and unit-to-unit variation in MAX4315ESE+T production lots.
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4315ESE+T can drive stably?
The MAX4315ESE+T can drive up to 47pF capacitive load without isolation resistor, maintaining stability and flat frequency response. For heavier loads (e.g., >47pF), an external series isolation resistor (RISO) is recommended - 27Ω is typical for 90pF loads. This behavior is documented in Figure 9 of the MAX4315ESE+T datasheet. Unlike many high-speed amplifiers, MAX4315ESE+T's low 0.025Ω open-loop output impedance allows robust capacitive drive capability without compromising video signal integrity.
How does the MAX4315ESE+T handle input common-mode voltage near the negative rail?
The MAX4315ESE+T supports input common-mode voltages extending to the negative supply rail (VEE), enabling true ground-sensing operation in single-supply configurations. Within the specified range (VEE to VCC − 2.7V), CMRR exceeds 73dB and switching transients remain at 10mVp-p. Operation beyond this range may increase switching time and cause nonlinear output behavior - but no phase reversal or latchup occurs. This rail-inclusive input range makes MAX4315ESE+T ideal for interfacing with DC-coupled video sources referenced to system ground.
Can multiple MAX4315ESE+T devices be paralleled for larger switch matrices?
Yes, multiple MAX4315ESE+T devices can be safely paralleled using their SHDN pins to construct larger switch matrices. When one device is active (SHDN = high) and others are in shutdown (SHDN = low), their outputs enter high-impedance state (typically >35kΩ), preventing contention. The MAX4315ESE+T's low 0.025Ω open-loop output impedance and matched gain ensure seamless channel handoff. This architecture is explicitly supported in the MAX4315ESE+T datasheet's "Low-Power Shutdown Mode" section.
