Product details
Overview
MAX4381EUB from Maxim Integrated is a dual-channel, unity-gain-stable, rail-to-rail output voltage-feedback op amp with disable functionality, operating from +4.5V to +11V single supply or ±2.25V to ±5.5V dual supplies. It delivers 210MHz -3dB bandwidth, 485V/µs slew rate, and 0.02% differential gain error, making it suitable for high-fidelity video line driving in surveillance systems and set-top boxes.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4381EUB datasheet, MAX4381EUB pinout, MAX4381EUB application, or MAX4381EUB equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-amplifier architecture, 10-pin µMAX package, disable-controlled high-impedance output state, and verified performance in 75Ω video routing with <0.1dB gain flatness to 55MHz.
Technical Context
The MAX4381EUB integrates two independent amplifiers sharing a common disable control per channel (DISABLEA and DISABLEB), each featuring ground-sensing inputs extending beyond VEE and rail-to-rail outputs capable of swinging within 50mV of either supply rail under 2kΩ load. Its current-feedback-enhanced voltage-feedback architecture enables simultaneous wide bandwidth and low distortion.
Each amplifier supports unity-gain stability without external compensation and achieves 16ns settling time to 0.1% with 2V step input. The device maintains 70dB CMRR over DC–10MHz and exhibits –65dBc SFDR at 5MHz, confirming suitability for analog-to-digital converter interface and CCD imaging signal conditioning where harmonic integrity is critical.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6722MA/NOPB | Single +5V supply only; no disable function; 1.8GHz GBW but higher 15mA quiescent current per amp | Lacks channel shutdown capability; unsuitable for power-gated video multiplexers | Select when maximum bandwidth (>500MHz small-signal) is prioritized over power efficiency and disable control |
| ADA4817-2ACPZ-R7 | Faster 1GHz GBW and lower 4.3nV/√Hz noise, but requires dual ±5V supply and has no disable pin | Not compatible with single-supply video systems; lacks output high-Z mode for channel isolation | Prefer for ultra-low-noise, high-precision instrumentation where dual supply and no power gating are acceptable |
Compared with LMH6722MA/NOPB and ADA4817-2ACPZ-R7, the MAX4381EUB uniquely combines dual-channel operation, rail-to-rail output, active disable control, and single-supply compatibility in a 10-pin µMAX package-enabling compact, low-power video signal routing without supply or layout redesign.

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 guarantees full AC performance including 210MHz bandwidth and 485V/µs slew rate. The device's PSRR remains ≥50dB across this range, ensuring robust operation in noisy power environments typical of video equipment.
Does the MAX4381EUB support rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage?
The MAX4381EUB supports rail-to-rail *output* swing but not rail-to-rail *input*. Its input common-mode voltage range extends 200mV below VEE and to within 2.25V of VCC. For +5V supply, this means –0.2V to +2.75V input range-sufficient for ground-referenced video signals but not for full-rail input acquisition. This design balances speed, distortion, and input stage headroom.
How does the disable function work on the MAX4381EUB?
The MAX4381EUB features independent DISABLEA and DISABLEB pins (pins 3 and 8). When pulled low, each disables its respective amplifier, placing the output in a high-impedance state with 35kΩ resistance and <2pF capacitance. This allows safe channel multiplexing without loading active paths. Enable time is 100ns; disable time is 1µs-fast enough for video frame-rate switching.
What is the recommended PCB layout for MAX4381EUB in video applications?
For optimal MAX4381EUB performance in video applications, use microstrip routing with controlled 75Ω impedance for inputs/outputs, place 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitors ≤2mm from VCC and VEE pins, avoid 90° trace bends, and implement solid ground planes. Do not use sockets or wire-wrap; surface-mount resistors/capacitors are mandatory. Keep feedback traces short and symmetric to minimize phase error in differential configurations.
Can the MAX4381EUB drive a 75Ω coaxial cable directly?
Yes, the MAX4381EUB is specifically characterized for 75Ω video line driving. With RL = 75Ω to ground, it delivers 0.02% differential gain and 0.08° differential phase error (NTSC), and sustains 485V/µs slew rate into this load. Output voltage swing remains >4.9Vp-p at +5V supply. For best results, terminate the far end of the coax and use series 24Ω resistor in feedback path per the datasheet's unity-gain optimization guidance.
