MAX4159EEE

Video Amps And Modules Overview

The MAX4159EEE is a wideband, dual-channel, noninverting video amplifier with input multiplexing and address latching. It operates from ±5V supplies and drives ±2.5V signals into 50Ω or 75Ω loads. Optimized for unity gain (0dB), it features a 350MHz -3dB bandwidth, 700V/µs slew rate, and 20ns settling time to 0.1%. The device exhibits low differential gain and phase errors of 0.01% and 0.01°, respectively. It includes high-impedance output disabling and channel-to-channel switching in 20ns. Available in a 16-pin QSOP package, it supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Video Amps And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EEE' corresponds to the 16-pin QSOP package and industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm that the ordering part number matches the exact pinout and logic requirements for address latching and enable functions. Ensure compatibility with current-mode feedback design guidelines regarding feedback resistor selection and board layout practices.

Video Amps And Modules Selection Notes

Select this component when unity gain (0dB) operation is required alongside input multiplexing capabilities. The MAX4159 differs from the MAX4158 by including address latching and output disable features. Choose this over the MAX4259 series if the application requires optimization for gains of one rather than two. Consider the 16-pin QSOP package constraints for space-limited designs requiring these specific control functions.

Video Amps And Modules Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX4158/MAX4159/MAX4258/MAX4259 family of wideband video multiplexer-amplifiers. These components are designed as current-mode feedback amplifiers optimized for driving standard video loads. The family distinguishes between parts optimized for unity gain (MAX415x) and those for higher gains (MAX425x), while the '9' variants add digital control features like address latching and output enabling compared to the '8' variants.
