MAX4018EEE+

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MAX4018EEE+ is a triple, unity-gain-stable, high-speed operational amplifier with rail-to-rail outputs. It operates from a single 3.3V to 10V supply or ±1.65V to ±5V dual supplies. Key electrical parameters include a 150MHz -3dB bandwidth, 600V/μs slew rate, and 5.5mA quiescent current per amplifier. The device features an enable input that reduces power consumption to 400μA and places outputs in a high-impedance state. It supports a common-mode input range extending beyond the negative rail and provides ±120mA output drive capability.

• Surveillance video systems

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package configuration and temperature range against project requirements before procurement. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may indicate limited stock or discontinuation. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the desired tape-and-reel or tube packaging format. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to validate authenticity and compliance with RoHS standards.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when multiple high-speed amplifiers are required within a compact footprint. The integrated enable function makes it suitable for multiplexing architectures where low-power standby states are necessary. Evaluate the 150MHz bandwidth and 600V/μs slew rate against the maximum signal frequency and amplitude requirements of the target application circuit.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX401x family of low-cost, high-speed, single-supply op amps manufactured by Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated. The family includes single (MAX4012), dual (MAX4016), triple (MAX4018), and quad (MAX4020) variants. All members share similar electrical characteristics, differing primarily in channel count and pin configurations.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include the MAX4016EEE+ (dual channel) and MAX4020EEE+ (quad channel). These parts share identical electrical specifications but differ in channel count and pinout assignments. Verify pin compatibility if replacing directly on existing PCB layouts.
