These single-supply devices operate from +3.15V to +11V, or from 1.575V to 5.5V dual supplies. The input voltage range extends 100mV beyond the negative supply rail and the outputs swing Rail-to-Rail(R). These devices require only 5.5mA of quiescent supply current while achieving a 200MHz -3dB bandwidth and a 600V/s slew rate. In addition, the MAX4019 has a disable feature that reduces the supply current to 400A. Input voltage noise for these parts is only 10nV/Hz and input current noise is only 1.3pA/Hz. This buffer family is ideal for low-power/low-voltage applications that require wide bandwidth, such as video, communications, and instrumentation systems. For space-sensitive applications, the MAX4014 comes in a tiny 5-pin SOT23 package.

These buffers use internal 500 resistors to provide a preset closed-loop gain of +2V/V in the noninverting configuration or -1V/V in the inverting configuration. Excellent harmonic distortion and differential gain/phase performance make these buffers an ideal choice for a wide variety of video and RF signal-processing applications. Local feedback around the buffer' s output stage ensures low output impedance, which reduces gain sensitivity to load variations. This feedback also produces demand-driven current bias to the output transistors for 120mA drive capability, while constraining total supply current to less than 7mA. __________Applications Information Power Supplies These devices operate from a single +3.15V to +11V power supply or from dual supplies of 1.575V to 5.5V. For single-supply operation, bypass the VCC pin to ground with a 0.1F capacitor as close to the pin as possible. If operating with dual supplies, bypass each supply with a 0.1F capacitor. Selecting Gain Configuration Each buffer in the MAX4014 family can be configured for a voltage gain of +2V/V or -1V/V. For a gain of +2V/V, ground the inverting terminal. Use the noninverting terminal as the signal input of the buffer (Figure 1a). Grounding the noninverting terminal and using the inverting terminal as the signal input configures the buffer for a gain of -1V/V (Figure 1b). Since the inverting input exhibits a 500 input impedance, terminate the input with a 56 resistor when the device is configured for an inverting gain in 50 applications (terminate with 88 in 75 applications). Terminate the input with a 49.9 resistor in the noninverting case. Output terminating resistors should directly match cable impedances in either configuration. Layout Techniques Maxim recommends using microstrip and stripline techniques to obtain full bandwidth. To ensure that the PC board does not degrade the buffer's performance, design it for a frequency greater than 1GHz. Pay careful attention to inputs and outputs to avoid large parasitic capacitance. Whether or not you use a constant-impedance board, observe the following guidelines when designing the board: * Don't use wire-wrapped boards. They are too inductive. * Don't use IC sockets. They increase parasitic capacitance and inductance. * Use surface-mount instead of through-hole components for better high-frequency performance. * Use a PC board with at least two layers; it should be as free from voids as possible. * Keep signal lines as short and as straight as possible. Do not make 90 turns; round all corners. IN+ IN IN+ OUT RTIN *R OUT OUT RS *R *R *R 500 IN 500 500 IN- MAX40_ _ Figure 1a.

Circuit to Reduce Enable Logic-Low Input Current Input Voltage Range and Output Swing The input range for the MAX4014 family extends from (VEE - 100mV) to (VCC - 2.25V). Input ground sensing increases the dynamic range for single-supply applications. The outputs drive a 2k load to within 60mV of the power-suply rails. With heavier loads, the output swing is reduced as shown in the Electrical Characteristics and the Typical Operating Characteristics. As the load increases, the input range is effectively limited by For example, a 50 load can typically be driven from 40mV above VEE to 1.6V below VCC, or 40mV to 3.4V when operating from a single +5V supply. If the buffer is operated in the noninverting, gain of +2 configuration with the inverting input grounded, the effective input voltage range becomes 20mV to 1.7V, instead of the -100mV to 2.75V indicated by the Electrical Characteristics. Beyond the effective input range, the buffer output is a nonlinear function of the input, but it will not undergo phase reversal or latchup. Enable The MAX4019 has an enable feature (EN_) that allows the buffer to be placed in a low-power state. When the buffers are disabled, the supply current will not exceed 550A per buffer. As the voltage at the EN_ pin approaches the negative supply rail, the EN_ input current rises. Figure 2 shows a graph of EN_ input current versus EN_ pin voltage. Figure 3 shows the addition of an optional resistor in series with the EN pin, to limit the magnitude of the current increase. Figure 4 displays the resulting EN pin input current to voltage relationship. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 9 MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 20 MAX4014 MAX4017 MAX4019 MAX4022 IN+ 500 500 RISO OUT MAX40_ _ VIN VOUT CL RTIN 50 IN500 500 Figure 5.

Small-Signal Gain vs. Frequency with Load Capacitance and No Isolation Resistor Disabled Output Resistance The MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 include internal protection circuitry that prevents damage to the precision input stage from large differential input voltages, as shown in Figure 5. This protection circuitry consists of five back-to-back Schottky diodes between IN_+ and IN_-. These diodes lower the disabled output resistance from 1k to 500 when the output voltage is 3V greater or less than the voltage at IN_+. Under these 10 The MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 provide maximum AC performance with no load capacitance. This is the case when the load is a properly terminated transmission line. However, they are designed to drive up 25pF of load capacitance without oscillating, but with reduced AC performance. Driving large capacitive loads increases the chance of oscillations occurring in most amplifier circuits. This is especially true for circuits with high loop gains, such as voltage followers. The buffer's output resistance and the load capacitor combine to add a pole and excess phase to the loop response. If the frequency of this pole is low enough to interfere with the loop response and degrade phase margin sufficiently, oscillations can occur. A second problem when driving capacitive loads results from the amplifier's output impedance, which looks inductive at high frequencies. This inductance forms an L-C resonant circuit with the capacitive load, which causes peaking in the frequency response and degrades the amplifier's gain margin. Figure 6 shows the frequency response of the MAX4014/ MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 under different capacitive loads. To drive loads with greater than 25pF of capacitance or to settle out some of the peaking, the output requires an isolation resistor like the one shown in ______________________________________________________________________________________ Low-Cost, High-Speed, Single-Supply, Gain of +2 Buffers with Rail-to-Rail Outputs in SOT23 3 RISO = 27 CL = 47pF 1 0 20 GIAN (dB) ISOLATION RESISTANCE, RISO () 2 25 15 10 CL = 68pF -1 -2 CL = 120pF -3 -4 -5 5 -6 0 -7 0 50 100 150 200 CAPACITIVE LOAD (pF) 250 100k 1M 10M 100M 1G FREQUENCY (Hz) Figure 8.

Figure 9 shows the frequency response of the MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/ MAX4022 when driving capacitive loads with a 27 isolation resistor. Coaxial cables and other transmission lines are easily driven when properly terminated at both ends with their characteristic impedance. Driving back-terminated transmission lines essentially eliminates the lines' capacitance. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 30 MAX4014/MAX4017/MAX4019/MAX4022 Low-Cost, High-Speed, Single-Supply, Gain of +2 Buffers with Rail-to-Rail Outputs in SOT23 __________________________________________________________Pin Configurations TOP VIEW OUT 1 VEE 2 5 VCC MAX4014 OUTA 1 8 VCC INA- 2 7 OUTB MAX4017 INA+ IN+ 3 4 IN- 3 6 INB- VEE 4 5 INB+ SO/MAX SOT23-5 14 OUTC ENA 1 ENC 2 ENB 3 13 INC- MAX4019 12 INC+ VCC 4 11 VEE INA+ 5 10 INB+ INA- 6 9 INB- OUTA 7 8 OUTB SO OUTA 1 ENA 1 16 OUTC ENC 2 15 INC- INA- 2 14 INC+ INA+ 3 13 VEE VCC 4 12 INB+ INA- 6 OUTA 7 ENB 3 VCC 4 MAX4019 INA+ 5 N.C. 8 MAX4022 14 OUTD OUTA 1 16 OUTD 13 IND- INA- 2 15 IND- 12 IND+ INA+ 3 14 IND+ MAX4022 11 VEE VCC 4 INB+ 5 10 INC+ INB+ 5 12 INC+ 11 INB- INB- 6 9 INC- INB- 6 11 INC- 10 OUTB OUTB 7 8 OUTC OUTB 7 10 OUTC 9 N.C. 13 VEE 9 N.C. 8 N.C.
