500MHz, Low-Power Op Amps
____________________________Features
The MAX4100/MAX4101 op amps combine ultra-highspeed performance with low-power operation. The
MAX4100 is compensated for unity-gain stability, while
the MAX4101 is compensated for stability in applications with a closed-loop gain (AVCL) of 2V/V or greater.
The MAX4100/MAX4101 require only 5mA of supply
current while delivering a 500MHz unity-gain bandwidth
(MAX4100) or a 200MHz -3dB bandwidth (MAX4101)
with a 250V/µs slew rate.
♦ 500MHz Unity-Gain Bandwidth (MAX4100)
200MHz -3dB Bandwidth (AVCL = 2V/V, MAX4101)
These high-speed op amps have a wide output voltage
swing of ±3.5V and a high current-drive capability of
80mA.

MAX4100/MAX4101
500MHz, Low-Power Op Amps
_______________Detailed Description
The MAX4100/MAX4101 are low-power, high-bandwidth
operational amplifiers optimized for driving back-terminated cables in composite video, RGB, and RF systems.
The MAX4100 is unity-gain stable, and the MAX4101 is
optimized for closed-loop gains greater than or equal to
2V/V (AVCL ≥ 2V/V). While consuming only 5mA (6mA
max) supply current, both devices can drive 50Ω backterminated cables to ±3.1V minimum.
The MAX4100 features a bandwidth in excess of 500MHz
and a 0.1dB gain flatness of 65MHz. It offers differential
gain and phase errors of 0.06%/0.04°, respectively. The
MAX4101 features a -3dB bandwidth of 200MHz, a 0.1dB
bandwidth of 50MHz, and 0.07%/0.04° differential gain
and phase.
Available in small 8-pin SO and µMAX packages, these
ICs are ideally suited for use in portable systems (in
RGB, broadcast, or consumer video applications) that
benefit from low power consumption.
__________Applications Information
Layout and Power-Supply Bypassing
The MAX4100/MAX4101 have an RF bandwidth and,
consequently, require careful board layout. Depending
on the size of the PC board used and the frequency of
operation, it may be desirable to use constant-impedance microstrip or stripline techniques.
To realize the full AC performance of this high-speed
amplifier, pay careful attention to power-supply bypassing and board layout. The PC board should have at
least two layers: a signal and power layer on one side,
and a large, low-impedance ground plane on the other
side. The ground plane should be as free of voids as
possible. With multilayer boards, locate the ground
plane on a layer that incorporates no signal or power
traces.
Regardless of whether a constant-impedance board is
used, it is best to observe the following guidelines
when designing the board. Wire-wrap boards are much
too inductive, and breadboards are much too capacitive; neither should be used. IC sockets increase parasitic capacitance and inductance, and should not be
used. In general, surface-mount components give better high-frequency performance than through-hole
components. They have shorter leads and lower parasitic reactances. Keep lines as short and as straight as
possible. Do not make 90° turns; round all corners.
High-frequency bypassing techniques must be observed
to maintain the amplifier accuracy. The bypass capacitors should include a 1000pF ceramic capacitor between
each supply pin and the ground plane, located as close
to the package as possible. Next, place a 0.01µF to
0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with each 1000pF
capacitor, and as close to each as possible. Then place
a 10µF to 15µF low-ESR tantalum at the point of entry (to
the PC board) of the power-supply pins. The power-supply trace should lead directly from the tantalum capacitor
to the VCC and VEE pins. To minimize parasitic inductance, keep PC traces short and use surface-mount
components.

Figure 2. Effect of Feedback Resistor Values and Parasitic
Capacitance on Bandwidth
Setting Gain
The MAX4100/MAX4101 are voltage-feedback op amps
that can be configured as an inverting or noninverting
gain block, as shown in Figures 1a and 1b. The gain is
determined by the ratio of two resistors and does not
affect amplifier frequency compensation.
In the unity-gain configuration (as shown in Figure 1c),
maximum bandwidth and stability is achieved with the
MAX4100 when a small feedback resistor is included.
This resistor suppresses the negative effects of parasitic inductance and capacitance. A value of 24Ω provides the best combination of wide bandwidth, low
peaking, and fast settling time. In addition, this resistor
reduces the errors from input bias currents.
Choosing Resistor Values
The values of feedback and input resistors used in the
inverting or noninverting gain configurations are not
critical (as is the case with current feedback amplifiers). However, take care when selecting because the
ohmic values need to be kept small and noninductive
for practical reasons.
The input capacitance of the MAX4100/MAX4101 is
approximately 2pF. In either the inverting or noninverting configuration, the bandwidth limit caused by the
package capacitance and resistor time constant is
f3dB = 1 / (2Π RC), where R is the parallel combination
of the input and feedback resistors (R F and R G in
Figure 2) and C is the package and board capacitance
at the inverting input. Table 1 shows the bandwidth limit
for several values of RF and RG, assuming 4pF total
capacitance (2pF for the MAX4100/MAX4101 and 2pF
of PC board parasitics).

Resistor Types
Surface-mount resistors are the best choice for highfrequency circuits. They are of similar material to the
metal film resistors, but are deposited using a thick-film
process in a flat, linear manner so that inductance is
minimized. Their small size and lack of leads also minimize parasitic inductance and capacitance, thereby
yielding more predictable performance.
DC and Noise Errors
There are several major error sources to be considered
in any operational amplifier. These apply equally to the
MAX4100/MAX4101. Offset-error terms are given by the
equation below. Voltage and current noise errors are
root-square summed, so are computed separately.
Using the circuit in Figure 3, the total output offset voltage is determined by:
a) The input offset voltage (VOS) times the closed-loop
gain (1 + RF / RG)
b) The positive input bias current (I B+ ) times the
source resistor (RS) minus the negative input bias
current (IB-) times the parallel combination of RG
and R F . I OS (offset current) is the difference
between the two bias currents. If RG | | RF = RS, this
part of the expression becomes IOS x RS.
The equation for total DC error is:

R 
VOUT = IOSRS + VOS 1 + F 
 RG 

In both DC and noise calculations, errors are dominated by offset voltage and noise voltage (rather than by
input bias current or noise current).
Metal-film resistors with leads are manufactured using
a thin-film process, where resistive material is deposited in a spiral layer around a ceramic rod. Although the
materials used are noninductive, the spiral winding presents a small inductance (about 5nH) that may have an
adverse effect on high-frequency circuits.

MAX4100/MAX4101
Carbon composition resistors with leads are manufactured by pouring the resistor material into a mold. This
process yields a relatively low-inductance resistor that
is very useful in high-frequency applications, although
they tend to cost more and have more thermal noise
than other types. The ability of carbon composition
resistors to self-heal after a large current overload
makes them useful in high-power RF applications.
For general-purpose use, surface-mount metal-film
resistors seem to have the best overall performance for
low cost, low inductance, and low noise.

DECOUPLING RESISTOR (Ω)
When driving 50Ω or 75Ω back-terminated transmission
lines, capacitive loading is not an issue; therefore an isolation resistor is not required. For other applications
where the ability to drive capacitive loads is required, the
MAX4100/MAX4101 can typically drive 5pF and 20pF,
respectively. Figure 4a illustrates how a capacitive load
influences the amplifier’s peaking without an isolation
resistor (RS). Figure 4b shows how an isolation resistor
decreases the amplifier’s peaking.
The MAX4100/MAX4101 can drive capacitive loads up to
5pF. By using a small isolation resistor between the
amplifier output and the load, large capacitance values
may be driven without oscillation (Figure 5a). In most
cases, less than 50Ω is sufficient. Use Figure 5b to determine the value needed in your application. Determine the
worst-case maximum capacitive load you may encounter
and select the appropriate resistor from the graph.
