High-Output-Drive, 10Mhz, 10V/Μs, Rail-To-Rail I/O Op Amps With Shutdown In Sc70

19-2164; Rev 4; 5/04
High-Output-Drive, 10MHz, 10V/s,

Rail-to-Rail I/O Op Amps with Shutdown in SC70
The MAX4230MAX4234 single/dual/quad, high-outputdrive CMOS op amps feature 200mA of peak output
current, rail-to-rail input, and output capability from a
single 2.7V to 5.5V supply. These amplifiers exhibit a
high slew rate of 10V/s and a gain-bandwidth product
(GBWP) of 10MHz. The MAX4230MAX4234 can drive
typical headset levels (32), as well as bias an RF
power amplifier (PA) in wireless handset applications.
The MAX4230 comes in a tiny 5-pin SC70 package and
the MAX4231, single with shutdown, is offered in the
6-pin SC70 package. The dual op-amp MAX4233 is
offered in the space-saving 10-bump UCSP, providing the smallest footprint area for a dual op amp with
shutdown.
These op amps are designed to be part of the PA control circuitry, biasing RF PAs in wireless headsets. The
MAX4231/MAX4233 offer a SHDN feature that drives
the output low. This ensures that the RF PA is fully disabled when needed, preventing unconverted signals to
the RF antenna.
The MAX4230 family offers low offsets, wide bandwidth,
and high-output drive in a tiny 2.1mm x 2.0mm spacesaving SC70 package. These parts are offered over the
automotive temperature range (-40C to +125C).

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.

Detailed Description
Rail-to-Rail Input Stage
The MAX4230MAX4234 CMOS operational amplifiers
have parallel-connected N- and P-channel differential
input stages that combine to accept a common-mode
range extending to both supply rails. The N-channel
stage is active for common-mode input voltages typically greater than (V SS + 1.2V), and the P-channel
stage is active for common-mode input voltages typically less than (VDD - 1.2V).
Applications Information
Package Power Dissipation
Warning: Due to the high output current drive, this op
amp can exceed the absolute maximum power-dissipation rating. As a general rule, as long as the peak current is less than or equal to 40mA, the maximum package
FUNCTION

Amplifier 1 Output
Inverting Input to Amplifiers 3 and 4

Amplifiers 3 and 4 Outputs
power dissipation is not exceeded for any of the package

types offered. There are some exceptions to this rule,
however. The absolute maximum power-dissipation rating
of each package should always be verified using the following equations. The equation below gives an approximation of the package power dissipation:
PIC(DISS) VRMS IRMS COS
where:
VRMS = RMS voltage from VDD to VOUT when sourcing
current and RMS voltage from VOUT to VSS when sinking current.
IRMS = RMS current flowing out of or into the op amp
and the load.
= phase difference between the voltage and the current. For resistive loads, COS = 1.

Therefore:

power dissipation because there is no DC current to
the load, as shown in Figure 2:

If the configuration in Figure 1 were used with all four of
the MAX4234 amplifiers, the absolute maximum powerdissipation rating of this package would be exceeded
(see the Absolute Maximum Ratings section).
60mW Single-Supply Stereo

Headphone Driver
Two MAX4230/MAX4231s can be used as a single-supply, stereo headphone driver. The circuit shown in
Figure 2 can deliver 60mW per channel with 1% distortion from a single 5V supply.
The input capacitor (CIN), in conjunction with RIN, forms
a highpass filter that removes the DC bias from the
incoming signal. The -3dB point of the highpass filter is
given by:

Figure 3. Dual MAX4230/MAX4231 Bridge Amplifier for 200mW

at 3V
Choose gain-setting resistors RIN and RF according to

the amount of desired gain, keeping in mind the maximum output amplitude. The output coupling capacitor,
COUT, blocks the DC component of the amplifier output, preventing DC current flowing to the load. The output capacitor and the load impedance form a highpass
filer with the -3dB point determined by:
f 3dB =
1
2RLCOUT
For a 32 load, a 100F aluminum electrolytic capacitor gives a low-frequency pole at 50Hz.
Bridge Amplifier
The circuit shown in Figure 3 uses a dual MAX4230 to
implement a 3V, 200mW amplifier suitable for use in
size-constrained applications. This configuration eliminates the need for the large coupling capacitor
required by the single op-amp speaker driver when single-supply operation is necessary. Voltage gain is set
to 10V/V; however, it can be changed by adjusting the
82k resistor value.
Rail-to-Rail Input Stage

The MAX4230MAX4234 CMOS op amps have parallelconnected N- and P-channel differential input stages
that combine to accept a common-mode range extending to both supply rails. The N-channel stage is active
for common-mode input voltages typically greater than
(V SS + 1.2V), and the P-channel stage is active for
common-mode input voltages typically less than (VDD 1.2V).
10
5s/div
Figure 4. Rail-to-Rail Input/Output Range
Rail-to-Rail Output Stage

The minimum output is within millivolts of ground for single-supply operation, where the load is referenced to
ground (VSS). Figure 4 shows the input voltage range
and the output voltage swing of a MAX4230 connected
as a voltage follower. The maximum output voltage
swing is load dependent; however, it is guaranteed to
be within 500mV of the positive rail (VDD = 2.7V) even
with maximum load (32 to ground).
The MAX4230MAX4234 incorporate a smart short-circuit protection feature. When VOUT is shorted to VDD or
VSS, the device detects a fault condition and limits the
output current, therefore protecting the device and the
application circuit. If VOUT is shorted to any voltage
other than VDD or VSS, the smart short-circuit protection
is not activated. When the smart short circuit is not
active, the output currents can exceed 200mA (see
Typical Operating Characteristics.)
Input Capacitance
One consequence of the parallel-connected differential
input stages for rail-to-rail operation is a relatively large
input capacitance CIN (5pF typ). This introduces a pole
at frequency (2RCIN)-1, where R is the parallel combination of the gain-setting resistors for the inverting or
noninverting amplifier configuration (Figure 5). If the pole
frequency is less than or comparable to the unity-gain
bandwidth (10MHz), the phase margin is reduced, and
the amplifier exhibits degraded AC performance through
either ringing in the step response or sustained oscillations. The pole frequency is 10MHz when R = 2k. To
maximize stability, R << 2k is recommended.

To improve step response when R > 2k, connect

where Rf is the feedback resistor and R is the gain-setting resistor (Figure 5).

Driving Capacitive Loads

The MAX4230MAX4234 have a high tolerance for
capacitive loads. They are stable with capacitive loads
up to 780pF. Figure 6 is a graph of the stable operating
region for various capacitive loads vs. resistive loads.
Figures 7 and 8 show the transient response with
excessive capacitive loads (1500pF), with and without
the addition of an isolation resistor in series with the
output. Figure 9 shows a typical noninverting capacitive-load-driving circuit in the unity-gain configuration.

Power-Up and Shutdown Modes

The MAX4231/MAX4233 have a shutdown option.
When the shutdown pin (SHDN) is pulled low, supply
current drops to 0.5A per amplifier (VDD = 2.7V), the
amplifiers are disabled, and their outputs are driven to
VSS. Since the outputs are actively driven to VSS in
shutdown, any pullup resistor on the output causes a
current drain from the supply. Pulling SHDN high
enables the amplifier. In the dual MAX4233, the two
amplifiers shut down independently. Figure 10 shows
the MAX4231s output voltage to a shutdown pulse. The
MAX4231MAX4234 typically settle within 5s after
power-up. Figures 11 and 12 show IDD to a shutdown
plus and voltage power-up cycle.

Power Supplies and Layout

The MAX4230MAX4234 can operate from a single
2.7V to 5.5V supply, or from dual 1.35V to 2.5V supplies. For single-supply operation, bypass the power
supply with a 0.1F ceramic capacitor. For dual-supply
operation, bypass each supply to ground. Good layout
improves performance by decreasing the amount of
stray capacitance at the op amps inputs and outputs.
Decrease stray capacitance by placing external components close to the op amps pins, minimizing trace
and lead lengths.
