MAX4224EUT+T

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MAX4224EUT+T is a single-channel current-feedback operational amplifier housed in a 6-pin SOT-23 package. It operates on dual supplies ranging from ±2.85V to ±5.5V with a typical quiescent supply current of 6.0mA per amplifier. The device features a -3dB bandwidth of 600MHz and a gain-bandwidth product of 1.2GHz when configured for a closed-loop gain of +2 (6dB) or more. Key electrical specifications include a slew rate of 1700V/µs, an output drive current capability of 80mA, and a settling time of 5ns to 0.1%. It includes a shutdown mode that reduces supply current to 350µA.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '+T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Confirm the 'E' designation corresponds to the extended industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Ensure the component matches the 6-pin SOT-23 physical footprint required for the target PCB layout. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm authenticity and revision status.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when a current-feedback topology is required for high-speed signal processing at gains of +2 or greater. It is suitable for applications demanding fast settling times and high slew rates within a compact surface-mount package. Consider the shutdown feature if power management during idle states is critical. Verify that the dual-supply voltage requirements align with the system design constraints.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX4223–MAX4228 family of ultra-high-speed, low-power current-feedback amplifiers. While similar devices in the series are optimized for unity gain (+1), the MAX4224 variant is specifically compensated for closed-loop gains of +2 (6dB) or more. This distinction ensures optimal stability and frequency response characteristics for non-inverting amplifier configurations requiring moderate signal amplification.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

The MAX4223EUT+T serves as a functional substitute for unity-gain (+1) applications within the same package. For designs requiring gains of +2 or higher, the MAX4227EUT+T and MAX4228EUT+T are direct equivalents offering identical electrical characteristics and pinouts.
