Detailed Description
Featuring a maximized ratio of GBW to supply current,
low operating supply voltage, low input bias current,
and rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, the MAX9910–
MAX9913 are an excellent choice for precision or gen-
eral-purpose, low-current, low-voltage, battery-powered
applications. These CMOS devices consume an ultra-
low 4µA (typ) supply current and a 200µV (typ) offset
voltage. For additional power conservation, the
MAX9911/MAX9913 feature a low-power shutdown
mode that reduces supply current to 1nA (typ), and
puts the amplifiers’ output in a high-impedance state.
These devices are unity-gain stable with a 200kHz
GBW product, driving capacitive loads up to 30pF. The
capacitive load can be increased to 250pF when the
amplifier is configured for a 10V/V gain.
Rail-to-Rail Inputs and Outputs
All of the MAX9910–MAX9913 amplifiers have a parallel-
connected n- and p-channel differential input stage that
allows an input common-mode voltage range that
extends 100mV beyond the positive and negative sup-
ply rails, with excellent common-mode rejection.
The MAX9910–MAX9913 are capable of driving the out-
put 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 the output
voltage swing of the MAX9910–MAX9913 configured as
a unity-gain buffer powered from a single 3V supply.
Low Input Bias Current
The MAX9910–MAX9913 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 MAX9910–MAX9913 amplifiers are unity-gain sta-
ble for loads up to 30pF. However, the capacitive load
can be increased to 250pF when the amplifier is config-
ured for a minimum gain of 10V/V. Applications that
require greater capacitive-drive capability should use
an isolation resistor between the output and the capaci-
tive load (Figure 2). Also, in unity-gain applications with
relatively small RL (approximately 5kΩ), the capacitive
load can be increased up to 200pF.
Power-Supply Considerations
The MAX9910–MAX9913 are optimized for single 1.8V
to 5.5V supply operation. A high amplifier power-supply

powered directly from a battery, simplifying design and RAIL-TO-RAIL OUTPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
extending battery life.
3V
Power-Up Settling Time IN_
The MAX9910–MAX9913 typically require 5µs after
1V/div
power-up. Supply settling time depends on the supply
voltage, the value of the bypass capacitor, the output
0V
impedance of the incoming supply, and any lead resis-
tance or inductance between components. Op-amp 3V
settling time depends primarily on the output voltage OUT_
and is slew-rate limited. Figure 3 shows the MAX991_ in
a noninverting voltage follower configuration with the 1V/div
input held at midsupply. The output settles in approxi-
mately 18µs for VDD = 3V (see the Typical Operating 0V
Characteristics for power-up settling time). 200µs/div

Shutdown Mode
Figure 1. Rail-to-Rail Output Voltage Range
The MAX9911/MAX9913 feature active-low shutdown
inputs. The MAX9911/MAX9913 enter shutdown in 2µs
(typ) and exit in 30µs (typ). The amplifiers’ outputs are
in a high-impedance state in shutdown mode. Drive
SHDN low to enter shutdown. Drive SHDN high to
enable the amplifier. The MAX9913 dual-amplifier fea- RISO
tures separate shutdown inputs. Shut down both ampli- MAX9910–
MAX9913
fiers for the lowest quiescent current.
RL CL
Power-Supply Bypassing and Layout
To minimize noise, bypass VDD with a 0.1µF capacitor
to ground, as close to the pin as possible.
RL
Good layout techniques optimize performance AV = ≈ 1V/V
RL + RISO
by decreasing the amount of stray capacitance and
inductance to the op amps’ inputs and outputs.
Minimize stray capacitance and inductance by placing Figure 2. Using a Resistor to Isolate a Capacitive Load from
