MAX4310ESA

Video Amps And Modules Overview

The MAX4310ESA is a high-speed, low-power video multiplexer-amplifier from the MAX4310–MAX4315 family. It integrates a 2-channel multiplexer with an adjustable gain amplifier optimized for unity-gain stability. The device operates from a single +4V to +10.5V supply or dual supplies of ±2V to ±5.25V. Key electrical parameters include a -3dB bandwidth of 280MHz and a slew rate of 460V/µs. Quiescent supply current is 6.1mA, reducing to 560µA in shutdown mode. It features rail-to-rail outputs, 40ns channel switching time, and ultra-low 10mVp-p switching transients.

Video Amps And Modules Feature Summary

• Integrates a 2-channel multiplexer with an adjustable gain amplifier optimized for unity-gain stability.
• Features rail-to-rail outputs that drive loads to within 730mV of the rails.
• Includes a low-power shutdown mode that minimizes supply current and places outputs in a high-impedance state.
• Provides excellent video specifications with differential gain and phase errors of 0.06% and 0.08° respectively.

Video Amps And Modules Applications

• Video signal multiplexing
• Video crosspoint switching
• Broadcast video systems

Video Amps And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'ESA' confirms the SOIC-8 package and industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the component is sourced from authorized distributors to ensure authenticity. Check for RoHS compliance status as indicated in official documentation. Validate pin configurations against the datasheet before integration into PCB layouts.

Video Amps And Modules Selection Notes

Select this part when a 2-channel mux-amp with adjustable gain is required. Compare bandwidth and slew rate requirements against other family members like the MAX4311 or MAX4313 if fixed gain or higher channel counts are needed. Ensure the application benefits from the low switching transients and rail-to-rail output swing capabilities provided by this specific device architecture.

Video Amps And Modules Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX4310–MAX4315 series of single-supply mux-amps. While the MAX4310 offers 2 channels with adjustable gain, other variants provide different channel counts (4 or 8) or fixed gains (+2V/V). The MAX4310ESA specifically denotes the industrial temperature grade version housed in an 8-pin SO package.

Video Amps And Modules Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include the MAX4310EUA, which shares identical electrical characteristics but utilizes an 8-pin µMAX package instead of the SOIC-8 form factor.

Video Amps And Modules FAQ

What is the input common-mode voltage range?

The input common-mode range extends from the negative supply rail to VCC minus 2.7V.

How does the device handle capacitive loads?

For high-capacitive loads, an isolation resistor should be used between the output and the load to maintain stability and prevent peaking in the frequency response.
