MAX4200–MAX4205
Ultra-High-Speed, Low-Noise, Low-Power,
SOT23 Open-Loop Buffers
General Description
Features
● 2.2mA Supply Current
The MAX4200–MAX4205 are ultra-high-speed, open-
loop buffers featuring high slew rate, high output current,
low noise, and excellent capacitive-load-driving capability.
The MAX4200/MAX4201/MAX4202 are single buffers,
while the MAX4203/MAX4204/MAX4205 are dual buffers.
The MAX4201/MAX4204 have integrated 50Ω termination
resistors, making them ideal for driving 50Ω transmission
lines. The MAX4202/MAX4205 include 75Ω back-
termination resistors for driving 75Ω transmission lines.
The MAX4200/MAX4203 have no internal termination
resistors.
● High Speed
• 780MHz -3dB Bandwidth (MAX4201/MAX4202)
• 280MHz 0.1dB Gain Flatness (MAX4201/MAX4202)
• 4200V/μs Slew Rate
● Low 2.1nV/√Hz Voltage-Noise Density
● Low 0.8pA/√Hz Current-Noise Density
● High ±90mA Output Drive (MAX4200/MAX4203)
● Excellent Capacitive-Load-Driving Capability
®
● Available in Space-Saving SOT23 or μMAX
The MAX4200–MAX4205 use a proprietary architecture
to achieve up to 780MHz -3dB bandwidth, 280MHz 0.1dB
gain flatness, 4200V/μs slew rate, and ±90mA output current
drive capability. They operate from ±5V supplies and draw
only 2.2mA of quiescent current. These features, along
with low-noise performance, make these buffers suitable
for driving high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
inputs or for data-communications applications.
