MAX454CPD

Video Amps And Modules Overview

The MAX454CPD is a video amplifier and multiplexer integrated circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (formerly Maxim Integrated). It features a single channel configured as a 4:1 multiplexer-amplifier within an 8-pin DIP package. The device operates from dual power supplies ranging from ±4.5V to ±5.5V. Key electrical specifications include a -3dB bandwidth of 50 MHz, a slew rate of 300 V/µs, and a supply current of 25 mA. The output current per channel is rated at 20 mA. This component is designed for high-speed video signal processing applications requiring precise amplification and routing.

Video Amps And Modules Feature Summary

• Integrates a 4:1 multiplexer with a high-speed video amplifier in a single channel configuration
• Provides a wide bandwidth of 50 MHz and a fast slew rate of 300 V/µs for accurate signal reproduction
• Operates on standard dual voltage supplies of ±4.5V to ±5.5V
• Delivers a maximum output current of 20 mA per channel

Video Amps And Modules Applications

• Video signal multiplexing and distribution systems
• High-speed data acquisition front-ends
• Test and measurement equipment requiring signal switching and amplification
• Medical imaging signal processing circuits

Video Amps And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CPD' to confirm the PDIP-8 package and commercial temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status as older Maxim parts may vary. Check manufacturer lifecycle status, as this component may be discontinued or subject to limited availability. Ensure the design supports dual ±5V power rails. Validate pinout compatibility if replacing legacy designs.

Video Amps And Modules Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined multiplexer and amplifier solution is required for video frequencies up to 50 MHz. It is suitable for designs needing ±5V operation and moderate output drive capability. Consider alternative parts if single-supply operation or lower power consumption is mandatory. Verify that the 20 mA output current meets the load requirements of the downstream circuitry.

Video Amps And Modules Part Context

The MAX454 belongs to the Maxim Integrated video switch and multiplexer family. Unlike the MAX4541 series which focuses on low-voltage analog switching, the MAX454 integrates active amplification stages. It serves as a bridge between passive switching networks and active buffering, allowing direct connection to transmission lines without external op-amps. The CPD designation indicates a plastic dual-in-line package suitable through-hole prototyping or legacy board layouts.
