Product details
Overview
MAX4417ESA from Maxim Integrated is a dual, high-speed, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for closed-loop gains ≥ +5V/V. It delivers 150MHz -3dB bandwidth, 470V/µs slew rate, and ultra-low 1.6mA supply current per amplifier while operating from a single +2.7V to +5.5V supply. Its input common-mode range extends from 100mV below ground to within 1.5V of VCC, enabling use in low-voltage video line drivers and portable baseband signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4417ESA datasheet, MAX4417ESA pinout, MAX4417ESA application, or MAX4417ESA equivalent, this device is selected for precision, low-distortion, high-bandwidth analog signal conditioning where power efficiency and rail-to-rail swing are critical - especially in battery-powered instrumentation, cellular telephone front-ends, and video driver stages requiring <0.05% differential gain error and <0.35° differential phase error.
Technical Context
The MAX4417ESA employs voltage-feedback architecture with internal compensation tailored for stable operation at closed-loop gains of +5V/V or higher. Its output stage uses demand-driven current biasing and internal feedback to maintain low open-loop output impedance (<0.5Ω at 1MHz), minimizing gain sensitivity to load variations.
It features ground-sensing inputs (common-mode range: VEE – 0.1V to VCC – 1.5V) and rail-to-rail outputs (swing within 105mV of either rail into 1kΩ). Stability with capacitive loads requires external isolation resistors (e.g., 22Ω for ≤15pF), as it is not unity-gain stable and exhibits peaking without proper termination.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| -3dB Bandwidth | 150MHz at AV = +5V/V - supports high-fidelity video and RF baseband amplification up to ~75MHz small-signal flatness. |
| Slew Rate | 470V/µs - enables clean 2Vp-p step response with 5ns rise/fall time, critical for fast-settling ADC buffers. |
| Supply Current | 1.6mA per amplifier - allows dual-channel operation under 3.3V/5V rails with minimal thermal impact in space-constrained portable designs. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | VEE – 0.1V to VCC – 1.5V - permits direct interfacing to ground-referenced sensors and single-supply data converters. |
| Differential Gain/Phase Error | 0.05%/0.35° at NTSC - meets broadcast-grade video line driver requirements without external trimming. |
| Spurious-Free Dynamic Range | –79dBc at 5MHz, VCC = +3V - ensures low-noise signal integrity in sensitive receiver IF stages. |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 105mV of VCC or VEE into 1kΩ - maximizes dynamic range in single-supply systems, delivering >4.6Vp-p swing from +5V rail. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4417ESA is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation. The package provides standard surface-mount compatibility and thermal performance suitable for industrial and portable applications.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTA | Amplifier A output - rail-to-rail capable; requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor to ground for stability. |
| 2 | INA– | Amplifier A inverting input - high-impedance node; keep trace short and away from noisy signals to minimize coupling. |
| 3 | INA+ | Amplifier A noninverting input - accepts common-mode voltages down to VEE – 0.1V; guard ring recommended. |
| 4 | VEE | Negative power supply - tied to ground in single-supply configurations; must be low-impedance. |
| 5 | INB+ | Amplifier B noninverting input - electrically isolated from INA+; supports independent dual-channel operation. |
| 6 | INB– | Amplifier B inverting input - matched to INA– for gain-matching applications (0.1dB gain match up to 10MHz). |
| 7 | OUTB | Amplifier B output - identical AC/DC specs to OUTA; crosstalk to OUTA is –72dB at 10MHz. |
| 8 | VCC | Positive power supply - operates from +2.7V to +5.5V; bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed <2mm from pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers full dynamic range in single-supply systems - e.g., 4.6Vp-p output from +5V rail into 1kΩ load. |
| Ground-sensing input | Accepts input signals down to 100mV below ground, eliminating level-shifting circuitry in sensor interfaces. |
| Low distortion at 5MHz | –79dBc SFDR and 0.01% THD enable high-fidelity signal reconstruction in ADC buffer and video driver roles. |
| Capacitive load drive | Stable with up to 120pF load when used with recommended isolation resistor (e.g., 22Ω), simplifying LCD or cable driver design. |
| Dual-channel matching | 0.1dB gain match and 0.1° phase match between channels up to 10MHz - essential for I/Q signal paths and differential receivers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-power op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4415ESA | Single-channel version with identical bandwidth (150MHz), slew rate (470V/µs), and supply current (1.6mA). | Used where only one amplifier channel is needed - saves board area but lacks dual-channel correlation benefits. | Select MAX4415ESA for cost-sensitive single-ended designs; MAX4417ESA preferred for I/Q or differential pair buffering. |
| AD8057ARZ | Unity-gain stable, 325MHz bandwidth, 1100V/µs slew rate, but consumes 6.5mA per amplifier. | Higher speed and drive capability, but incompatible with low-power portable systems due to 4× higher quiescent current. | Choose AD8057ARZ only when bandwidth >150MHz is mandatory and power budget allows >6mA/channel. |
Compared with MAX4415ESA, MAX4417ESA offers dual-channel integration without sacrificing speed or power; versus AD8057ARZ, it trades raw bandwidth for 4× lower supply current and guaranteed stability at AV ≥ +5V/V - making it optimal for battery-operated, dual-path analog signal chains.

FAQ
What is the minimum closed-loop gain required for stable operation of the MAX4417ESA?
The MAX4417ESA is internally compensated for closed-loop gains of +5V/V or greater. Operating at gains below +5V/V may cause instability, excessive peaking, or oscillation. For unity-gain or lower-gain configurations, consider the MAX4416ESA instead - which is unity-gain stable and shares the same package and pinout.
Can the MAX4417ESA drive a 75Ω video load directly?
Yes - the MAX4417ESA can drive a 75Ω video load with minimal distortion. Its differential gain/phase error is specified at 0.05%/0.35° into 150Ω, and driving 75Ω is supported via proper termination (e.g., back-termination with series 75Ω resistor at source). Output swing remains rail-to-rail, delivering >4Vp-p into 75Ω with <0.1% THD at 1MHz.
Does the MAX4417ESA require external compensation components?
No - the MAX4417ESA is fully internally compensated for AV ≥ +5V/V. However, external isolation resistors (e.g., 22Ω) are required when driving capacitive loads >10pF to maintain phase margin and prevent ringing. No external capacitors or feedback networks are needed for basic gain-setting configurations.
What is the maximum capacitive load the MAX4417ESA can drive stably?
The MAX4417ESA is characterized for stable operation with up to 120pF capacitive load when used with an appropriate series isolation resistor. For example, a 22Ω resistor supports stable operation with ≤15pF; larger loads (e.g., 100pF) require proportionally higher RISO values per Figure 2 in the datasheet - up to ~28Ω for 1000pF.
How does the MAX4417ESA compare to the MAX4416ESA in terms of pin compatibility and function?
The MAX4417ESA and MAX4416ESA share identical 8-pin SO packaging and pinout (OUTA, INA–, INA+, VEE, INB+, INB–, OUTB, VCC). They differ only in internal compensation: MAX4416ESA is unity-gain stable (400MHz BW, 200V/µs), while MAX4417ESA is +5V/V stable (150MHz BW, 470V/µs). This makes them drop-in replacements for layout - only gain configuration and performance trade-offs differ.
