MAX9914–MAX9917
1MHz, 20μA, Rail-to-Rail
I/O Op Amps with Shutdown
General Description
The single MAX9914/MAX9915 and dual MAX9916/
MAX9917 operational amplifiers feature maximized ratio
of gain bandwidth to supply current and are ideal for
battery-powered applications such as portable instrumentation, portable medical equipment, and wireless
handsets. These CMOS op amps feature an ultra-low
1pA input bias current, rail-to-rail inputs and outputs,
low 20μA supply current, and operate from a single 1.8V
to 5.5V supply. For additional power conservation, the
MAX9915/MAX9917 feature a low-power shutdown mode
that reduces supply current to 1nA, and puts the amplifier
outputs in a high-impedance state. These devices are
unity-gain stable with a 1MHz gain-bandwidth product.
The MAX9914 and MAX9915 are available in 5-pin and
6-pin SC70 packages, respectively. The MAX9916 is available in an 8-pin SOT23 package, and the MAX9917 in a
10-pin μMAX® package. All devices are specified over the
-40°C to +85°C extended operating temperature range.

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
Featuring a maximized ratio of gain bandwidth to supply
current, low operating supply voltage, low input bias current, and rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, the MAX9914–
MAX9917 are an excellent choice for precision or general-purpose low-current, low-voltage, battery-powered
applications. These CMOS devices consume an ultra-low
20μA (typ) supply current and a 200μV (typ) offset voltage. For additional power conservation, the MAX9914/
MAX9917 feature a lowpower shutdown mode that
reduces supply current to 1nA (typ), and puts the amplifiers’ output in a highimpedance state. These devices are
unity-gain stable with a 1MHz gain-bandwidth product
driving capacitive loads up to 30pF. The capacitive load
can be increased to 100pF when the amplifier is configured for a 10V/V gain.
Rail-to-Rail Inputs and Outputs
The MAX9914–MAX9917 amplifiers all have a parallelconnected n- and p-channel differential input stage that
allows an input common-mode voltage range that extends
100mV beyond the positive and negative supply rails, with
excellent common-mode rejection.
www.maximintegrated.com
Amplifier Output Channel B
The MAX9914–MAX9917 are capable of driving the output to within 5mV of both supply rails with a 100kΩ load.
These devices can drive a 5kΩ load with swings to within
60mV of the rails. Figure 1 shows no clipping at the output
voltage swing of the MAX9914–MAX9917 configured as a
unity-gain buffer powered from a single 3V supply.
Low Input Bias Current
The MAX9914–MAX9917 feature ultra-low 1pA (typ) input
bias current. The variation in the input bias current is
minimal with changes in the input voltage due to very high
input impedance (in the order of 1GΩ).
Applications Information
Driving Capacitive Loads
The MAX9914–MAX9917 amplifiers are unity-gain stable
for loads up to 30pF. However, the capacitive load can be
increased to 100pF when the amplifier is configured for a
minimum gain of 10V/V.
Applications that require greater capacitive drive capability should use an isolation resistor between the output and
the capacitive load (Figure 2). Also, in unity-gain applications with relatively small RL (about 5kΩ), the capacitive
load can be increased up to 100pF.

Power-Supply Considerations
RAIL-TO-RAIL OUTPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
The MAX9914–MAX9917 are optimized for single 1.8V
to 5.5V supply operation. A high amplifier power-supply
rejection ratio of 85dB (typ) allows the devices to be
powered directly from a battery, simplifying design and
extending battery life.

Power-Up Settling Time
The MAX9914–MAX9917 typically require 2μs after power-up. Supply settling time depends on the supply voltage,
the value of the bypass capacitor, the output impedance of the incoming supply, and any lead resistance or
inductance between components. Op amp settling time
depends primarily on the output voltage and is slew-rate
limited. Figure 3 shows the MAX991_ in a noninverting
voltage follower configuration with the input held at midsupply. The output settles in approximately 3.5μs for VDD
= 3V (see the Typical Operating Characteristics for the
Power-Up Settling Time graph).

Shutdown Mode
The MAX9915 and MAX9917 feature active-low shutdown
inputs. The MAX9915 and MAX9917 enter shutdown in
2μs (typ) and exit shutdown in 10μs (typ). The amplifiers’
outputs are high impedance in shutdown mode. Drive
SHDN low to enter shutdown. Drive SHDN high to enable
the amplifier. The MAX9917 dual amplifier features separate shutdown inputs. Shut down both amplifiers for lowest quiescent current.
Power-Supply Bypassing and Layout
Bypass VDD with a 0.1μF capacitor to ground as close to
the pin as possible to minimize noise.
Good layout techniques optimize performance by decreasing the amount of stray capacitance and inductance to the
op amp’s inputs and outputs. Minimize stray capacitance
and inductance, by placing external components close to
the IC.
