Product details
Overview
MAX4402AKA-T from Maxim Integrated is a dual, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation from +2.5V to +5.5V, drawing only 320µA per amplifier, delivering ±1.4mA output current, and featuring unity-gain stability with up to 400pF capacitive loads - widely deployed in automotive sensor signal conditioning and portable communications front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4402AKA-T datasheet, MAX4402AKA-T pinout, MAX4402AKA-T application, or MAX4402AKA-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification (for /V+ variants), 8-pin SOT23 package footprint, -40°C to +125°C operating range, and rail-to-rail output swing within 55mV of supply rails under 2kΩ load.
Technical Context
The MAX4402AKA-T implements a ground-sensing input stage and rail-to-rail CMOS output stage, enabling full dynamic range utilization in single-supply systems where input signals extend to VSS. Its 1MHz gain-bandwidth product and 70° phase margin ensure stable closed-loop operation at unity gain with capacitive loads up to 400pF.
It features low input bias current (±0.1pA typ), high open-loop gain (110dB with 2kΩ load), and excellent power-supply rejection (100dB typ), making it suitable for precision DC-coupled amplification in noisy automotive environments without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2.5V to +5.5V - supports direct connection to Li-ion battery or 3.3V/5V system rails without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current per Amplifier | 320µA - enables always-on sensor interfaces with sub-1mW total dissipation per channel. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1MHz - sufficient for anti-aliasing filters, active RC filters, and medium-speed signal conditioning up to ~100kHz. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 55mV of VDD/VSS at 2kΩ load - maximizes ADC input dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1.0mV (max) - ensures <100µV error in 100mV full-scale sensor outputs without trimming. |
| Capacitive-Load Stability | Stable up to 400pF - eliminates need for isolation resistors when driving ADC inputs or long PCB traces. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications. |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTA | Output of amplifier A - rail-to-rail capable, ±1.4mA drive, high-impedance when unused. |
| 2 | INA+ | Noninverting input of amplifier A - ground-sensing, common-mode range extends to VSS. |
| 3 | INA− | Inverting input of amplifier A - matched to INA+, supports precision differential configurations. |
| 4 | VSS | Negative supply terminal - connect directly to system ground in single-supply operation. |
| 5 | VDD | Positive supply terminal - bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to minimize PSRR degradation. |
| 6 | INB− | Inverting input of amplifier B - electrically isolated from amplifier A; no crosstalk below -60dB @ 100kHz. |
| 7 | INB+ | Noninverting input of amplifier B - identical input characteristics to INA+; supports dual-channel synchronous sensing. |
| 8 | OUTB | Output of amplifier B - independently driven, same AC/DC performance as OUTA. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual rail-to-rail op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSV912IDT | Higher quiescent current (1.1mA), lower GBW (8MHz), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Better for higher-frequency filtering but unsuitable for automotive under-hood use without additional qualification. | Select when bandwidth >1MHz is required and automotive qualification is not mandatory. |
| LMV358IDR | Wider supply range (2.7V–5.5V), higher input offset (±3mV), no guaranteed 125°C operation. | Cost-optimized for consumer-grade industrial controls where extended temperature is not critical. | Select for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications requiring basic rail-to-rail performance. |
Compared with TSV912IDT and LMV358IDR, MAX4402AKA-T delivers superior low-power operation (320µA vs. >1mA), guaranteed +125°C performance, and AEC-Q100 compliance - making it the only option qualified for automotive powertrain and chassis modules without derating or requalification.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4402AKA-T can drive while remaining unity-gain stable?
The MAX4402AKA-T is unity-gain stable with capacitive loads up to 400pF, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Operating Characteristics (Figure MAX4400 toc19). This allows direct connection to most SAR ADC inputs and eliminates the need for output isolation resistors in standard PCB layouts - a key advantage over many general-purpose op amps that require compensation networks for loads exceeding 50pF.
Does the MAX4402AKA-T include a shutdown feature?
No, the MAX4402AKA-T does not include a shutdown feature. Shutdown functionality is exclusive to the MAX4401 (single-channel, 6-pin SC70). The MAX4402AKA-T is a dual-channel device without SHDN pin or related circuitry - confirmed by the Pin Description table and Selector Guide, which lists "No" under Shutdown Mode for MAX4402. Power management must be handled externally via supply switching.
Is the MAX4402AKA-T qualified for automotive applications?
The MAX4402AKA-T itself is not AEC-Q100 qualified; only the MAX4402AKA/V+T and MAX4402AUA/V+T variants carry AEC-Q100 qualification. Per the Ordering Information table and Benefits and Features section, AEC-Q100 qualification applies exclusively to parts marked "/V+". Engineers requiring automotive qualification must specify MAX4402AKA/V+T - the /V+ suffix denotes automotive-grade screening and testing.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of the MAX4402AKA-T?
The MAX4402AKA-T features ground-sensing inputs with a common-mode voltage range extending from VSS to (VDD − 1.4V) at +25°C, and to (VDD − 1.5V) over the full -40°C to +125°C range. This allows direct interfacing with sensors referenced to ground - such as current-sense shunts or thermistors - without level-shifting circuitry, simplifying design and reducing component count in battery- and automotive-supplied systems.
What package type is used for the MAX4402AKA-T?
The MAX4402AKA-T uses an 8-pin SOT23 package (package code K8+5A, outline number 21-0078), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm with a 0.95mm height. This ultra-small outline is compatible with standard SOT23 pick-and-place equipment and offers thermal resistance θJA = 196°C/W on a four-layer board - making it suitable for high-density automotive ECUs and portable medical devices where board space and thermal performance are critical constraints.
