Product details
Overview
The MAX4329ESD from Maxim Integrated is a quad, rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage, single-supply precision signal conditioning. It delivers 5MHz gain-bandwidth, 650µA per amplifier quiescent current, ±700µV offset voltage (typ), and drives 250Ω loads - enabling high-fidelity analog front-ends in battery-powered data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4329ESD datasheet, MAX4329ESD pinout, MAX4329ESD application, or MAX4329ESD equivalent, key selection criteria include its 14-pin SO package, shutdown capability (MAX4327/MAX4323 only), unity-gain stability with up to 500pF capacitive loads, rail-to-rail I/O swing at 2.4V–6.5V supply, and verified performance across –40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The MAX4329ESD implements a bipolar process rail-to-rail input stage using complementary NPN/PNP differential pairs, enabling full VEE-to-VCC common-mode range without phase reversal on overdrive. Its output stage supports rail-to-rail swing into 250Ω loads while maintaining 70dB large-signal voltage gain (RL = 250Ω) and 64° phase margin.
It operates from single supplies (2.4V–6.5V) or dual supplies (±1.2V–±3.25V), features no internal pull-ups on SHDN pins (unlike MAX4323/MAX4327), and exhibits 22nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1kHz - confirming suitability for low-noise, wideband sensor interface and RSSI applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 5MHz - enables stable closed-loop operation up to ~500kHz at gain ≥10 with minimal phase lag. |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 650µA (typ @ VCC = 2.4V) - supports ultra-low-power portable instrumentation with four independent channels. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±700µV (typ @ TA = +25°C) - ensures <1mV error in 12-bit ADC front-ends with 5V full-scale range. |
| Output Voltage Swing | VOL − VEE ≤ 300mV, VCC − VOH ≤ 400mV (RL = 250Ω) - delivers >94% of rail-to-rail dynamic range into moderate loads. |
| Capacitive-Load Stability | Stable with up to 500pF - eliminates need for isolation resistors in DAC buffer or anti-alias filter applications. |
| Common-Mode Rejection Ratio | 59dB (min @ TA = −40°C to +85°C) - maintains accuracy in noisy industrial sensor environments with ground offsets. |
| Slew Rate | 2V/µs - supports clean 100kHz sine-wave reproduction at 2VP-P without distortion. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4329ESD is housed in a 14-pin SO (Small Outline) package with standard 0.150" body width and 1.27mm lead pitch, compatible with JEDEC MS-012AC. Thermal resistance θJA is 80°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT1 | Amplifier 1 output - directly drives 250Ω loads with rail-to-rail swing; no internal shutdown control. |
| 2 | IN1− | Inverting input of Amp 1 - matched impedance critical to minimize bias-current-induced offset errors. |
| 3 | IN1+ | Noninverting input of Amp 1 - accepts signals from VEE to VCC with <250µV typical input offset. |
| 4 | VEE | Negative supply rail - tied to GND in single-supply mode; establishes common reference for all four amplifiers. |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply rail - accepts 2.4V–6.5V; requires 0.1µF ceramic + 1µF bulk bypassing per supply pin. |
| 6 | IN2+ | Noninverting input of Amp 2 - electrically isolated from other channels; supports independent signal paths. |
| 7 | IN2− | Inverting input of Amp 2 - shares same bias current characteristics as IN1−; polarity reverses near VCC/2. |
| 8 | OUT2 | Amplifier 2 output - identical drive capability and rail-to-rail behavior as OUT1. |
| 9 | OUT3 | Amplifier 3 output - enables simultaneous multi-channel conditioning without cross-talk degradation (135dB isolation). |
| 10 | IN3− | Inverting input of Amp 3 - part of fully independent third op-amp core; no shared internal nodes with Amps 1–2. |
| 11 | IN3+ | Noninverting input of Amp 3 - supports true differential sensing when paired with IN3− and external resistor network. |
| 12 | VEE | Negative supply rail - redundant connection for improved grounding; must be connected to same node as Pin 4. |
| 13 | IN4+ | Noninverting input of Amp 4 - completes quad configuration; allows four independent gain stages on one IC. |
| 14 | IN4− | Inverting input of Amp 4 - final input terminal; layout symmetry recommended to match trace lengths with IN4+. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-Rail Input Common-Mode Range | Extends from VEE to VCC - enables direct interfacing with unbuffered sensors and ADC references without level-shifting. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Voltage Swing | Within 300mV of rails into 250Ω - maximizes dynamic range in 3V systems where headroom is constrained. |
| Unity-Gain Stability with Capacitive Loads | Up to 500pF - eliminates external compensation in DAC output buffers and active filter designs. |
| No Phase Reversal on Overdriven Inputs | Guaranteed behavior - prevents latch-up or erroneous output states during transient overload conditions. |
| Low Input Bias Current | ±50nA (typ @ +25°C) - reduces voltage error across high-impedance source networks (e.g., thermistor dividers). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2464IDR | Lower GBW (6.4MHz), higher supply current (550µA per amp), no guaranteed rail-to-rail input at VCC/2 transition region. | Less suitable for precision low-voltage sensor interfaces requiring full rail-to-rail CMVR. | Select MAX4329ESD when input stage linearity near mid-supply and 5MHz bandwidth at lowest possible current are required. |
| AD8604ARUZ | Higher precision (60µV offset), lower noise (12nV/√Hz), but only 8MHz GBW and 2.7V minimum supply. | Preferred for ultra-low-offset applications like strain gauge bridges, not optimal for 2.4V battery operation. | Choose MAX4329ESD for wider supply range (2.4V–6.5V), better capacitive-load drive, and cost-sensitive quad integration. |
Compared with TLV2464IDR and AD8604ARUZ, the MAX4329ESD uniquely balances 5MHz bandwidth, 650µA quiescent current, full rail-to-rail I/O, and 2.4V operation - making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-channel portable instrumentation where supply headroom and power budget are tightly coupled.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the MAX4329ESD?
The MAX4329ESD operates from a single supply of 2.4V to 6.5V or dual supplies of ±1.2V to ±3.25V. This wide range supports direct integration into 3V battery-powered systems and legacy 5V industrial platforms. The device maintains specified performance across the full range, including rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage and output swing.
Does the MAX4329ESD include a shutdown feature?
No, the MAX4329ESD does not include a shutdown function. Unlike the MAX4323 and MAX4327 variants, the MAX4329ESD has no SHDN pin - all four amplifiers remain active whenever powered. Shutdown capability is exclusive to the MAX4323 (single), MAX4327 (dual), and MAX4326 (dual) variants in this family.
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4329ESD can drive stably?
The MAX4329ESD is unity-gain stable with capacitive loads up to 500pF without external compensation. This is confirmed in the datasheet's Typical Operating Characteristics (Figure 4) and AC Electrical Characteristics table. For loads exceeding 500pF, an isolation resistor (e.g., 39Ω) in series with the output restores stability, as shown in Figure 6.
How many operational amplifiers are integrated in the MAX4329ESD?
The MAX4329ESD integrates four independent operational amplifiers in a single 14-pin SO package. Each amplifier has dedicated input and output pins (IN1±/OUT1 through IN4±/OUT4), with shared VCC and VEE supply connections. The transistor count is 680, consistent with a quad bipolar op-amp implementation.
What package type is used for the MAX4329ESD?
The MAX4329ESD uses a 14-pin SO (Small Outline) package conforming to JEDEC MS-012AC outline, with 0.150" body width and 1.27mm lead pitch. It is distinct from UCSP, SOT23, or µMAX variants in the same family and is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C.
