Product details
Overview
MAX4475ASA+T from Maxim Integrated is a single, unity-gain stable, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-noise, low-distortion signal conditioning in precision analog systems. It delivers 10MHz gain-bandwidth, 4.5nV/√Hz input voltage-noise density, 0.0002% THD+N at 1kHz (1kΩ load), 2.2mA quiescent current, and operates from +2.7V to +5.5V single supply - making it ideal for ADC buffering and medical instrumentation front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4475ASA+T datasheet, MAX4475ASA+T pinout, MAX4475ASA+T application, or MAX4475ASA+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail output swing with 1kΩ load, ground-sensing input (VCM includes VSS), shutdown capability (0.01µA), and SO-8 package compatibility with legacy layouts requiring low-noise, high-DC-accuracy amplification.
Technical Context
The MAX4475ASA+T employs a BiCMOS process to achieve ultra-low input voltage-noise density (4.5nV/√Hz at 1kHz) and sub-picoampere input bias current (±1pA typ), enabling high-fidelity amplification of high-impedance sources like piezoelectric sensors and DAC outputs. Its unity-gain stability and 10MHz GBW support wideband closed-loop configurations without external compensation.
It features true rail-to-rail output stage capable of swinging within 80mV of either rail into 1kΩ, while maintaining DC accuracy across –40°C to +125°C. The input common-mode range extends to VSS – 0.1V and up to VDD – 1.7V, ensuring robust operation near ground in single-supply systems.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX4475ASA+T is supplied in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package (Package Code S8+4, Outline Number 21-0041), with thermal resistance θJA = 132°C/W on multi-layer board. Pin 1 is OUT; Pin 2 is IN−; Pin 3 is IN+; Pin 4 is VSS; Pin 5 is N.C.; Pin 6 is VDD; Pin 7 is SHDN; Pin 8 is N.C. The exposed paddle is not present in SO packages.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT | Amplifier output - rail-to-rail capable, drives 1kΩ loads while maintaining DC accuracy. |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input - high-impedance (1000GΩ), low-bias-current node for feedback network connection. |
| 3 | IN+ | Noninverting input - accepts signals down to VSS – 0.1V; critical for ground-sensing applications. |
| 4 | VSS | Negative supply - connect to ground in single-supply operation; reference for exposed paddle in TDFN variants (not applicable here). |
| 5 | N.C. | No connection - internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice. |
| 6 | VDD | Positive supply - operates from 2.7V to 5.5V; requires local 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| 7 | SHDN | Shutdown control - logic-high (≥0.7×VDD) enables amplifier; logic-low (≤0.3×VDD) reduces IDD to 0.01µA and places OUT in high-Z state. |
| 8 | N.C. | No connection - internally unconnected; no electrical function. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low input voltage-noise density | 4.5nV/√Hz at 1kHz - preserves SNR when amplifying microvolt-level sensor outputs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise, rail-to-rail op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA376AIDR | Lower noise (4.2nV/√Hz), lower IQ (760µA), but only 5.5MHz GBW and no shutdown pin. | Lacks integrated shutdown; better suited for always-on, ultra-low-power sensor nodes where bandwidth <5MHz suffices. | Select OPA376AIDR when minimizing quiescent current is critical and shutdown functionality is implemented externally. |
| ADA4897-1ARJZ-R7 | Higher GBW (100MHz), lower distortion (0.00004% THD+N), but higher IQ (12mA) and no shutdown. | Optimized for high-speed, high-fidelity applications (e.g., ultrasound receive paths); unsuitable for battery-constrained designs. | Choose ADA4897-1ARJZ-R7 only when >10MHz bandwidth and sub-0.0001% THD+N are mandatory and power budget allows. |
Compared with OPA376AIDR and ADA4897-1ARJZ-R7, the MAX4475ASA+T uniquely combines 10MHz GBW, 0.0002% THD+N, 4.5nV/√Hz noise, and integrated shutdown in an SO-8 package - offering balanced performance for precision, power-aware industrial and medical signal chains.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the MAX4475ASA+T?
The MAX4475ASA+T is specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C. This extended industrial temperature range ensures reliable performance in harsh environments such as automotive engine compartments, industrial PLC modules, and portable medical devices. All DC and AC specifications-including input offset voltage, THD+N, and gain-bandwidth-are guaranteed across this full range.
Does the MAX4475ASA+T support single-supply operation?
Yes, the MAX4475ASA+T supports true single-supply operation from +2.7V to +5.5V. Its input common-mode voltage range includes ground (VSS – 0.1V), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 80mV of both supply rails into a 1kΩ load. This enables direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors and low-voltage ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the purpose of the SHDN pin on the MAX4475ASA+T?
The SHDN (shutdown) pin on the MAX4475ASA+T controls power-down mode: applying logic-low (≤0.3×VDD) reduces quiescent supply current to 0.01µA and places the output in high-impedance state. This feature enables dynamic power management in battery-powered instruments and data acquisition systems where intermittent signal processing is required.
Can the MAX4475ASA+T drive capacitive loads?
Yes, the MAX4475ASA+T is stable driving capacitive loads up to 200pF without oscillation, as confirmed by its capacitive-load stability specification. For loads >100pF, layout best practices-such as minimizing trace length between output and load, and avoiding long unterminated lines-are recommended to preserve phase margin and transient response integrity.
Is the MAX4475ASA+T pin-compatible with other packages in the MAX4475 family?
No, the MAX4475ASA+T (SO-8) is not pin-compatible with the SOT23-6 or TDFN-6 variants of the MAX4475 (e.g., MAX4475AUT+T or MAX4475ATT+T). While all share identical electrical functionality and pin *functions*, the SO-8 package has two no-connect (N.C.) pins (5 and 8) and relocates SHDN to Pin 7, whereas SOT23/TDFN place SHDN at Pin 5 and omit N.C. pins entirely.
