Product details
Overview
MAX9651AUA+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-channel rail-to-rail input/output VCOM amplifier optimized for TFT-LCD panel backplane drive, delivering ±1.3A transient peak output current per channel, 40V/μs slew rate, and 35MHz bandwidth at up to 20V supply - enabling stable 120Hz frame-rate operation in full HD television displays.
For engineers reviewing the MAX9651AUA+T datasheet, MAX9651AUA+T pinout, MAX9651AUA+T application, or MAX9651AUA+T equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (8-pin μMAX-EP), thermal performance data (θJA = 77.6°C/W on four-layer board), output short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown with 15°C hysteresis - all critical for high-reliability LCD timing design.
Technical Context
The MAX9651AUA+T implements a BiCMOS-based high-current op-amp architecture with matched input stages and low-offset voltage amplification (±17mV over –40°C to +125°C), designed specifically to source/sink fast transient currents into large capacitive VCOM loads (up to 150nF) without oscillation. Its internal thermal shutdown activates at +170°C with automatic recovery after 15°C cooldown.
It operates from a single 6V–20V supply or dual ±4.5V–±10V supplies, features 70dB–95dB PSRR across its operating range, and maintains 60dB–80dB CMRR over 0.5V to (VDD – 0.5V) common-mode input range - ensuring robust rejection of supply and display noise in high-voltage LCD biasing applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Output Current | ±1.3A per channel - sustains rapid charge/discharge of large TFT-LCD VCOM capacitance during frame transitions. |
| Slew Rate | 40V/μs - enables sub-2μs settling to 0.1% for 1A load steps, meeting 120Hz timing budgets. |
| Bandwidth | 35MHz (-3dB) - supports full HD resolution with minimal phase lag in closed-loop VCOM regulation. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 6V to 20V single supply - compatible with standard LCD panel power rails including 19V VDD systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 5mA per channel - balances low static power with high dynamic drive capability for energy-efficient panels. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±17mV max over –40°C to +125°C - ensures precise DC VCOM level control across automotive and industrial temperature ranges. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | +170°C with 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload while allowing recovery without system reset. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX9651AUA+T is housed in an 8-pin μMAX-EP (exposed pad) package (Outline 21-0107, Land Pattern 90-0145), with the exposed pad internally connected to GND and requiring soldering to a PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation (θJC = 5°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTA | VCOM output channel A - drives first TFT-LCD panel backplane segment with ±1.3A capability. |
| 2 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - shared return path for both channels and exposed pad connection point. |
| 3 | INA+ | Noninverting input channel A - accepts VREF or feedback signal for closed-loop VCOM regulation. |
| 4 | INA- | Inverting input channel A - connects to VCOM node for error amplification in unity-gain buffer configuration. |
| 5 | VDD | Positive supply input - requires local 10μF + 0.1μF bypassing to sustain transient current delivery. |
| 6 | INB+ | Noninverting input channel B - independent reference input for second VCOM control loop. |
| 7 | INB- | Inverting input channel B - connects to second VCOM node for dual-panel or split-panel biasing. |
| 8 | OUTB | VCOM output channel B - independently drives second TFT-LCD backplane segment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar VCOM amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX9651ATA+ | TDFN-EP package (8-pin), lower θJA = 41°C/W, higher thermal performance than μMAX-EP; same electrical specs. | Better suited for high-power-density layouts where PCB space is constrained and thermal management is prioritized. | Select MAX9651ATA+ when board layer count supports aggressive copper pour under TDFN-EP and peak power exceeds 1.5W. |
| LMH6723MA/NOPB | Single-channel, 1.2A peak output, 300MHz GBW, no thermal shutdown or short-circuit protection; SOIC-8 package. | Lacks integrated protection and dual-channel integration - requires two devices and external safety circuitry for equivalent functionality. | Choose LMH6723MA/NOPB only for non-safety-critical, low-capacitance (<50nF), high-bandwidth analog test equipment where cost outweighs reliability. |
Compared with MAX9651AUA+T, MAX9651ATA+ offers superior thermal resistance for sustained high-current operation, while LMH6723MA/NOPB trades protection and integration for raw speed - making MAX9651AUA+T the optimal balance of safety, dual-channel efficiency, and LCD-specific drive capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for MAX9651AUA+T?
The MAX9651AUA+T is rated for 80mA continuous output current per channel under typical thermal conditions (TA = +70°C, μMAX-EP package on four-layer board). This value is derived from its 1030.9mW continuous power dissipation limit and thermal resistance (θJA = 77.6°C/W), ensuring safe operation without thermal shutdown during steady-state VCOM biasing. The ±1.3A rating applies only to transient peak current.
Does MAX9651AUA+T require external compensation for stability with large capacitive loads?
No - the MAX9651AUA+T is internally compensated to remain stable with capacitive loads up to 150nF without external components. Its design incorporates frequency compensation optimized for TFT-LCD VCOM drive, and application notes confirm stable operation with 0.1µF panel capacitance using only recommended 2.2Ω series resistance for settling optimization. External compensation is unnecessary in standard implementations.
Can MAX9651AUA+T operate from a dual-supply configuration?
Yes - the MAX9651AUA+T supports dual-supply operation from ±4.5V to ±10V. Its rail-to-rail input/output architecture allows full signal swing across the dual-rail range, and the datasheet specifies electrical characteristics under both single-supply (6V–20V) and dual-supply conditions. Ground (Pin 2) serves as the reference node, and the exposed pad must be connected to the system ground plane regardless of supply topology.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad (EP) on the MAX9651AUA+T package?
The exposed pad (EP) on the MAX9651AUA+T is internally connected to GND and serves as the primary thermal conduction path from the die to the PCB. Soldering EP to a solid ground plane reduces junction-to-ambient thermal resistance to 77.6°C/W (four-layer board), enabling reliable operation at elevated ambient temperatures. It is not optional - omitting EP grounding risks thermal shutdown during sustained output current delivery.
How does the thermal shutdown with hysteresis function in MAX9651AUA+T?
The MAX9651AUA+T activates thermal shutdown at +170°C junction temperature and remains off until the die cools by 15°C (to +155°C), at which point it automatically resumes operation. This hysteresis prevents rapid cycling during marginal thermal conditions. In typical TFT-LCD use, low duty-cycle VCOM updates keep average power low, so shutdown occurs only during fault conditions like sustained short-circuit or inadequate heatsinking - protecting both MAX9651AUA+T and the connected panel.
