Product details
Overview
MAX4453ESA from Maxim Integrated is a dual, unity-gain stable, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-power, high-speed signal conditioning in single-supply systems. It delivers 200MHz -3dB bandwidth, 95V/µs slew rate, and consumes only 620µA per amplifier at +5V supply - enabling wideband baseband amplification in battery-powered cellular handsets and keyless entry receivers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4453ESA datasheet, MAX4453ESA pinout, MAX4453ESA application, or MAX4453ESA equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SO-8 package terminal mapping, real-world use cases in portable communications, and validated alternative op amps with documented gain-bandwidth and power trade-offs.
Technical Context
The MAX4453ESA employs voltage-feedback architecture with internal unity-gain compensation, supporting stable operation down to AVCL = +1V/V. Its bipolar process enables fast large-signal response (20ns rise/fall) and low distortion (–79dBc SFDR at 1MHz), while rail-to-rail output swing (within 180mV of rails at 1kΩ load) maximizes dynamic range in 2.7V–5.25V systems.
Input common-mode range extends from VEE – 0.1V to VCC – 1.5V, allowing ground-sensing capability without phase reversal. Output stage uses demand-driven current biasing to maintain low open-loop output impedance (<0.8Ω at 1MHz), ensuring consistent gain across varying loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| -3dB Bandwidth | 200MHz - supports RF IF sampling and broadband analog front-ends up to 100MHz signal content. |
| Slew Rate | 95V/µs - enables clean 2Vpp pulse reproduction with ≤20ns rise/fall times under 1kΩ load. |
| Supply Current | 620µA per amplifier - allows dual-channel operation on <1.3mA total, critical for coin-cell or Li-ion portable designs. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 0.4mV typical - minimizes DC error in precision sensor buffering and ADC driver applications. |
| Output Swing | Within 180mV of rails (VCC/VEE) at 1kΩ - preserves >95% of full-scale dynamic range in 3V systems. |
| CMRR | 100dB typical - rejects common-mode noise in noisy mixed-signal environments like cellular baseband stages. |
| THD | –68dB at 1MHz, 1Vpp - meets audio and instrumentation linearity requirements without post-processing. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4453ESA is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, 1.75mm height, with standard 1.27mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or beveled corner.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTA | Amplifier A output - drives external load or next-stage input; rail-to-rail capable. |
| 2 | INA– | Inverting input for Amplifier A - connects to feedback network or signal inversion point. |
| 3 | INA+ | Noninverting input for Amplifier A - accepts high-impedance sensor or reference signals. |
| 4 | VEE | Negative supply (GND in single-supply mode) - must be decoupled with 0.1µF capacitor. |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply (2.7V–5.25V) - requires local 0.1µF bypass to minimize PSRR degradation. |
| 6 | INB– | Inverting input for Amplifier B - independent channel; no crosstalk coupling beyond –74dB. |
| 7 | INB+ | Noninverting input for Amplifier B - electrically isolated from Channel A inputs. |
| 8 | OUTB | Amplifier B output - fully independent output stage; supports simultaneous dual-channel operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 180mV of VCC/VEE at 1kΩ - preserves maximum signal headroom in low-voltage systems. |
| Unity-gain stability | No external compensation required - simplifies PCB layout and reduces bill-of-materials for buffer/gain=1 circuits. |
| Low 620µA quiescent current | Enables always-on signal monitoring in keyless entry receivers without compromising battery life. |
| 200MHz bandwidth / 95V/µs SR | Supports 15MHz active filters (e.g., multiple-feedback lowpass) and fast-settling ADC input buffers. |
| Ground-sensing input | Common-mode range includes VEE – 0.1V - allows direct connection to single-ended sensors referenced to system GND. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual, rail-to-rail, high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6612MMX/NOPB | 80MHz GBW, 120V/µs SR, 2.3mA per amp - higher power, lower bandwidth than MAX4453ESA. | Preferred where higher slew rate is needed for >5Vpp signals, but unsuitable for sub-2mA battery budgets. | Select when driving heavier capacitive loads (>100pF) or requiring lower input bias current (0.2µA vs. 0.8µA). |
| ADA4891-2ARZ | 225MHz GBW, 170V/µs SR, 4.4mA per amp - wider bandwidth but 7× higher supply current. | Used in high-fidelity video line drivers or optical receiver TIA feedback loops needing >150MHz flatness. | Choose if 0.1dB gain flatness to 30MHz is mandatory and power budget allows ≥4mA/channel. |
Compared with LMH6612MMX/NOPB and ADA4891-2ARZ, the MAX4453ESA uniquely balances 200MHz bandwidth and 620µA quiescent current - making it the only dual op amp in its class suitable for always-on, battery-constrained RF receiver signal chains.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the MAX4453ESA?
The MAX4453ESA operates from a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply. This range is validated across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature grade and supports direct integration with 3.3V and 5V logic domains. The device maintains 200MHz bandwidth and 95V/µs slew rate across this entire voltage span, with supply current increasing only from 530µA at 3V to 620µA at 5V.
Is the MAX4453ESA unity-gain stable?
Yes, the MAX4453ESA is internally compensated for unity-gain stability (AVCL = +1V/V). No external compensation components are required, and it remains stable driving resistive loads ≥1kΩ or capacitive loads ≤22pF. For larger capacitive loads, a series isolation resistor (RISO) is recommended - e.g., 18Ω for 50pF, per Figure 2 in the datasheet.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of the MAX4453ESA?
The MAX4453ESA features a ground-sensing input with common-mode range from VEE – 0.1V to VCC – 1.5V. At VCC = 5V, this spans –0.1V to +3.5V - enabling direct interface with 0–3.3V sensors and single-ended signals referenced to system ground, without level-shifting circuitry.
Does the MAX4453ESA support dual independent amplifiers?
Yes, the MAX4453ESA integrates two fully independent amplifiers (Channel A and Channel B) in one SO-8 package. Each has dedicated IN+, IN–, and OUT pins, with measured crosstalk of –74dB at 1MHz. There is no shared bias network or substrate coupling - channels operate simultaneously with matched AC performance.
What package type is used for the MAX4453ESA?
The MAX4453ESA uses an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package, also designated SOIC-N or MS012. It measures 3.9mm × 4.9mm with 1.27mm lead pitch and is RoHS-compliant. This package is compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles and offers better thermal dissipation than SOT23-8 variants - rated for 471mW continuous power dissipation at +70°C.
