Micropower, Single-Supply, Rail-to-Rail
Precision Differential Amplifiers
General Description
The MAX4198/MAX4199 low-power, rail-to-rail differential
amplifiers are ideal for single-supply applications that
benefit from a low 0.01% gain error. The MAX4198 is fac-
tory trimmed to a fixed gain of +1V/V, and the MAX4199
is trimmed to a fixed gain of +10V/V. Capable of operat-
ing from a single +2.7V to +7.5V supply or from dual
±1.35V to ±3.75V supplies, they consume only 42µA
while achieving -3dB bandwidths of 175kHz (MAX4198)
and 45kHz (MAX4199). These amplifiers feature a shut-
down mode that reduces the supply current to 6.5µA.
The MAX4198/MAX4199 can drive 5kΩ loads to within
100mV from each rail. The standard differential amplifi-
er configurations provide common-mode rejection of
90dB for the MAX4198 and 110dB for the MAX4199.
The input common-mode voltage range for the
MAX4198 extends 100mV Beyond-the-Rails™.
The MAX4198/MAX4199 are offered in a space-saving
8-pin µMAX package. For complete micropower, rail-to-
rail instrumentation amplifiers, see the MAX4194–
MAX4197 data sheet.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
