Product details
Overview
MAX4381EUB+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-channel, rail-to-rail output, high-speed voltage-feedback op amp with independent disable control per channel. It delivers 210MHz -3dB bandwidth, 485V/µs slew rate, and 0.02% differential gain / 0.08° differential phase error-optimized for video line driving, CCD imaging, and analog-to-digital converter interface applications operating from +4.5V to +11V single supply.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4381EUB+ datasheet, MAX4381EUB+ pinout, MAX4381EUB+ application, or MAX4381EUB+ equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, µMAX-10 package layout, disable timing (100ns enable / 1µs disable), and real-world video signal integrity metrics including -65dBc SFDR at 5MHz and 16ns 0.1% settling time.
Technical Context
The MAX4381EUB+ integrates two fully independent amplifiers in a 10-pin µMAX package, each with dedicated IN+, IN-, OUT, and DISABLE pins. Its current-feedback-enhanced voltage-feedback architecture enables simultaneous wide bandwidth and rail-to-rail output swing while maintaining low distortion across video frequencies.
Each amplifier supports single-supply operation down to +4.5V, accepts input common-mode voltages extending 200mV below VEE (ground), and features high-impedance disable mode (35kΩ output resistance) with logic-compatible thresholds (VIH = VCC − 1.25V, VIL = VCC − 3V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| -3dB Bandwidth | 210MHz - supports full HD video baseband (up to ~75MHz) with margin for harmonics and filtering |
| Slew Rate | 485V/µs - enables clean 2Vp-p step response in <16ns without slewing distortion |
| Supply Range | +4.5V to +11V single supply - compatible with 5V and 9V industrial/video rails |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.02% / 0.08° - meets NTSC/PAL broadcast-grade video fidelity requirements |
| Disable Output Resistance | 35kΩ - ensures minimal crosstalk in multiplexed video routing when disabled |
| Input Common-Mode Range | VEE − 0.2V to VCC − 2.25V - allows ground-referenced inputs in single-supply systems |
| Spurious-Free Dynamic Range | -65dBc at 5MHz - preserves signal integrity in ADC front-end and IF amplification |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4381EUB+ is housed in a 10-pin µMAX package (3.0mm × 3.0mm, 0.5mm pitch), thermally enhanced for high-speed operation with exposed paddle (EP) tied to VEE for optimal heat dissipation and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | INA+ | Noninverting input of Amplifier A - high-impedance node requiring guarded trace routing |
| 2 | INA- | Inverting input of Amplifier A - connects to feedback network; sensitive to parasitic capacitance |
| 3 | OUTA | Amplifier A output - drives 75Ω video loads directly; requires series 24Ω resistor for unity-gain stability |
| 4 | DISABLEA | Active-low shutdown control for Amplifier A - pulls to VEE to disable; 25–60µA input current |
| 5 | VCC | Positive power supply - bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed ≤2mm from pin |
| 6 | VEE | Negative power supply (GND in single supply) - low-inductance return path critical for AC performance |
| 7 | INB+ | Noninverting input of Amplifier B - electrically isolated from INA+; enables dual-path signal processing |
| 8 | INB- | Inverting input of Amplifier B - independent feedback path allows different gains per channel |
| 9 | OUTB | Amplifier B output - identical drive capability to OUTA; supports independent video channel routing |
| 10 | DISABLEB | Active-low shutdown control for Amplifier B - enables independent power gating per channel |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6702MA/NOPB | Single-channel, 1.8GHz GBW, no disable function, SOIC-8 package | Lacks per-channel shutdown and dual-channel integration; higher power (12.5mA/ch) | Choose when ultra-wide bandwidth (>500MHz small-signal) is required and board space allows separate amplifiers per channel. |
| ADA4817-2ACPZ-R7 | Dual-channel, 1GHz GBW, rail-to-rail output, no disable, LFCSP-16 package | Higher bandwidth but no disable mode; 16-pin package increases PCB area vs. µMAX-10 | Prefer when maximum speed is critical and video-grade differential gain/phase specs are secondary to raw bandwidth. |
Compared with LMH6702MA/NOPB and ADA4817-2ACPZ-R7, the MAX4381EUB+ uniquely combines dual-channel integration, per-channel disable, video-optimized distortion performance, and compact µMAX packaging-making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-source video systems requiring low-power state management.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the MAX4381EUB+?
The MAX4381EUB+ operates from a single +4.5V to +11V supply or dual ±2.25V to ±5.5V supplies. At +5V single supply, it achieves full 210MHz bandwidth and rail-to-rail output swing. The device maintains specified performance across its entire -40°C to +85°C temperature range, with quiescent current of 7.5–10mA total (3.75–5mA per amplifier) when enabled.
How does the disable function work on the MAX4381EUB+?
The MAX4381EUB+ features independent DISABLEA and DISABLEB pins. Driving either pin low (≤VCC − 3V) places that amplifier's output in high-impedance state (35kΩ typical), reducing quiescent current to 0.45–0.6mA per disabled channel. Enable time is 100ns; disable time is 1µs. This allows dynamic power gating in video multiplexers without external switches.
Can the MAX4381EUB+ drive a 75Ω video load directly?
Yes, the MAX4381EUB+ delivers up to 75mA output current and sustains 2Vp-p signals into 75Ω loads with <0.1dB gain flatness to 55MHz. For optimal stability in unity-gain video line driver configurations, Maxim recommends adding a 24Ω resistor in series with the feedback path to dampen parasitic LC resonance.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of the MAX4381EUB+?
At +5V single supply, the MAX4381EUB+ input common-mode range extends from (VEE − 0.2V) to (VCC − 2.25V), i.e., -0.2V to +2.75V. This ground-sensing capability allows direct interfacing with DC-coupled video sources and sensors without level-shifting circuitry, while maintaining >70dB CMRR across the range.
Does the MAX4381EUB+ require external compensation capacitors?
No, the MAX4381EUB+ is internally compensated for unity-gain stability. No external compensation capacitors are needed. However, for best AC performance in unity-gain configurations, a 24Ω resistor in series with the feedback path is recommended to suppress peaking caused by PCB and parasitic capacitance.
