_______________General Description
The MAX4223–MAX4228 current-feedback amplifiers
combine ultra-high-speed performance, low distortion,
and excellent video specifications with low-power oper-
ation. The MAX4223/MAX4224/MAX4226/MAX4228
have a shutdown feature that reduces power-supply
current to 350µA and places the outputs into a high-
impedance state. These devices operate with dual sup-
plies ranging from ±2.85V to ±5.5V and provide a
typical output drive current of 80mA. The MAX4223/
MAX4225/MAX4226 are optimized for a closed-loop
gain of +1 (0dB) or more and have a -3dB bandwidth of
1GHz, while the MAX4224/MAX4227/MAX4228 are
compensated for a closed-loop gain of +2 (6dB) or
more, and have a -3dB bandwidth of 600MHz (1.2GHz
gain-bandwidth product).
The MAX4223–MAX4228 are ideal for professional video
applications, with differential gain and phase errors of
0.01% and 0.02°, 0.1dB gain flatness of 300MHz, and a
1100V/µs slew rate. Total harmonic distortion (THD) of
-60dBc (10MHz) and an 8ns settling time to 0.1% suit
these devices for driving high-speed analog-to-digital
inputs or for data-communications applications. The low-
power shutdown mode on the MAX4223/MAX4224/
MAX4226/MAX4228 makes them suitable for portable
and battery-powered applications. Their high output
impedance in shutdown mode is excellent for multiplex-
ing applications.
The single MAX4223/MAX4224 are available in space-
saving 6-pin SOT23 packages. All devices are available
in the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

The MAX422_EUT is 100% production tested at T
A
= +25°C. Specifications over temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Absolute Maximum Power Dissipation must be observed.
Does not include impedance of external feedback resistor network.
AC specifications shown are with optimal values of R
F
and R
G
. These values vary for product and package type, and are
tabulated in the
Applications Information
section of this data sheet.
Note 5:
The AC specifications shown are not measured in a production test environment. The minimum AC specifications given are
based on the combination of worst-case design simulations along with a sample characterization of units. These minimum
specifications are for design guidance only and are not intended to guarantee AC performance (see
AC Testing/
Performance).
For 100% testing of these parameters, contact the factory.
Note 6:
Input Test Signal: 3.58MHz sine wave of amplitude 40IRE superimposed on a linear ramp (0IRE to 100IRE). IRE is a unit of
video signal amplitude developed by the International Radio Engineers. 140IRE = 1V.
Note 7:
Assumes printed circuit board layout similar to that of Maxim’s evaluation kit.
