General Description The MAX44290 offers a unique combination of high- speed, precision, and low-voltage operation, making them ideally suited for a large number of signal-processing functions, such as filtering and amplification of signals in portable and industrial equipment. This amplifier features an input offset of less than 50µV and a high-gain bandwidth product of 15MHz while maintaining a low 1.8V supply rail. The devices’ rail-to- rail input/outputs and low noise guarantee maximum dynamic range in demanding applications, such as 12-to- 14-bit SAR ADC drivers. Unlike traditional rail-to-rail input structures, input crossover distortion is absent due to an optimized input stage with an ultra-quiet charge pump. The device includes a fast-power-on shutdown mode for further power savings. The operational amplifier operates from a supply range of 1.8V to 5.5V over -40°C to 125°C temperature range, and can operate down to 1.7V over the 0 to 70°C temperature range.

General DescriptionThe MAX44290 offers a unique combination of high-speed, precision, and low-voltage operation, making them ideally suited for a large number of signal-processing functions, such as filtering and amplification of signals in portable and industrial equipment.This amplifier features an input offset of less than 50µV and a high-gain bandwidth product of 15MHz while maintaining a low 1.8V supply rail. The devices’ rail-to-rail input/outputs and low noise guarantee maximum dynamic range in demanding applications, such as 12-to-14-bit SAR ADC drivers. Unlike traditional rail-to-rail input structures, input crossover distortion is absent due to an optimized input stage with an ultra-quiet charge pump. The device includes a fast-power-on shutdown mode for further power savings. The operational amplifier operates from a supply range of 1.8V to 5.5V over -40°C to 125°C temperature range, and can operate down to 1.7V over the 0 to 70°C temperature range. It is available in a tiny, 6-bump wafer-level package (WLP), with 0.4mm-pitch.

Detailed DescriptionMAX44290 is a high-speed, low-power operational amplifier (op amp) ideal for signal-processing applications due to the device’s high-precision and low-noise CMOS inputs. The devices self-calibrate on power-up to eliminate effects of temperature and power-supply variation.The device also features a low-power shutdown mode that greatly reduces quiescent current while the device is not operational and recovers in 30μs. The device features auto-calibration at power-up event. The calibration routine takes 10ms.

Crossover DistortionThe device features a low-noise integrated charge pump that creates an internal voltage rail 1V above VDD, which powers the input differential pair of PMOS transis-tors, as shown in Figure 1. Such a unique architecture eliminates crossover distortion common in traditional CMOS input architecture (Figure 2), especially when used in a noninverting configuration, such as for Sallen-Key filters.The charge pump operating frequency lies well above the unity-gain frequency of the amplifier. Because of its high-frequency operation and ultra-quiet circuitry, the charge pump generates little noise, does not require external components, and is entirely transparent to the user.

Applications InformationPower-Up AutotrimThe device features an automatic trim that self-calibrates the input offset voltage (VOS) to less than 50µV of input offset voltage on power-up. This self-calibration feature allows the device to eliminate input offset voltage effects due to power supply and operating temperature variation simply by cycling its power. The auto-trim sequence takes approximately 10ms to complete, and is triggered by an internal power-on-reset (POR) circuitry. During this time, the inputs and outputs are at high impedance and left unconnected. Shutdown OperationThe MAX44290 features an active-low shutdown mode that puts both inputs and outputs into high impedance and substantially lowers the quiescent current to less than 1µA. Putting the output into high impedance allows multiple outputs to be multiplexed onto a single output

line without the additional external buffers. The device does not self-calibrate when exiting shutdown mode and retains its power-up trim settings. Figure 3 shows the device recovers from shutdown in under 30µs. The shutdown logic levels of the devices are independent of supply, allowing the shutdown feature of the device to operate off a 1.8V or 3.3V microcontroller, regardless of supply voltage.

Rail-to-Rail Input/OutputThe input voltage range of the device extends 100mV above VDD and below VSS. The wide input common-mode voltage range allows the op amp to be used as a buffer and as a differential amplifier in a variety of signal processing applications. Output voltage high/low is only 50mV above VSS and below VDD allowing maximum dynamic range in single-supply applications. The high out-put current and capacitance drive capability of the devices make them ideal as an ADC driver and a line driver.

Input Bias CurrentThe MAX44290 features a high-impedance CMOS input stage and a specialized ESD structure that allows low-input bias current operation at low-input, common-mode voltages. Low-input bias current is useful when interfacing with high-impedance sensors. It is also beneficial for designing transimpedance amplifiers for photodiode sensors. This makes the device ideal for ground-referenced medical and industrial sensor applications.

Driver for Interfacing with the MAX11645 ADCThe device’s tiny size and low noise makes them a good fit for driving 12 to 16-bit resolution ADCs in space- constrained applications. The Typical Application Circuits show the MAX44290 amplifier output connected to a lowpass filter driving the MAX11645 ADC. The MAX11645 is part of a family of 3V and 5V, 12-bit and 10-bit, 2-channel ADCs. The MAX11645 offers sample rates up to 94ksps and measures two single-ended inputs or one differential input. These ADCs dissipate 670µA at the maximum sampling rate, but just 6µA at 1ksps and 0.5µA in shutdown. Offered in the ultra-tiny, 1.9mm x 2.2mm WLP and µMAX-8 packages, the MAX11645 ADCs are an ideal fit to pair with MAX44290 in portable applications, where higher resolution is required. Refer to the MAX1069 (14-bit) and MAX1169 (16-bit) ADC families.

High-Impedance Source/Sensor Preamp ApplicationHigh-impedance sources such as pH sensors and photodiodes in applications require negligible input leakage currents to the input transimpedance/buffer structure. The MAX44290 benefits with clean and precise signal conditioning due to its input structure. The device interfaces to both current-output sensors (photodiodes), and high-impedance voltage sources (piezoelectric sensors). For current output sensors, a trans-impedance amplifier is the most noise-efficient method for converting the input signal to a voltage. High-value feedback resistors are commonly chosen to create large gains, while feedback capacitors help stabilize the amplifier by cancelling any poles introduced in the feedback loop by the highly capacitive sensor or cabling. A combination of low-current noise and low-voltage noise is important for these applications. Care must be taken to calibrate out photodiode dark current if DC accuracy is important. The high bandwidth and slew rate also allow AC signal processing in certain medical photodiode sensor applications such as pulse-oximetry. For voltage-output sensors, a noninverting amplifier is typically used to buffer and/or apply a small gain to the input voltage sig-nal. Due to the extremely high impedance of the sensor output, a low input bias current with minimal temperature variation is very important for these applications.
