The MAX952ESA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-performance, low-power, quad operational amplifier designed to operate with a single supply voltage. This versatile op amp features true single-supply capability with a standard supply voltage range of +4.5V to +5.5V, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications including battery-powered devices, portable equipment, and sensor interfaces.

One of the key advantages of the MAX952ESA+ is its low-power consumption, drawing a quiescent current of just 150µA per amplifier. This characteristic is particularly beneficial for extending battery life in portable applications. Despite its low power usage, this op amp does not compromise on performance, offering a high slew rate of 1.2V/µs and a gain-bandwidth product of 500kHz.

The MAX952ESA+ is designed to be highly robust, featuring an input common-mode voltage range that includes ground, making it ideal for single-supply applications. It also provides rail-to-rail output swing, which maximizes the dynamic range of the signal path. This is especially useful in low-voltage operations where maximizing the signal amplitude is crucial.

With a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, the MAX952ESA+ is suitable for use in harsh environments and can reliably perform in a variety of conditions. Additionally, it is offered in a compact 8-pin SOIC package, which is conducive to space-constrained designs.

The MAX952ESA+ is also equipped with short-circuit protection and does not latch up when the common-mode range is exceeded, adding an extra layer of safety and reliability to your design. Whether you are working on amplifiers for audio applications, filters, voltage references, or any other circuit requiring a high-quality op amp, the MAX952ESA+ is an excellent choice that combines low power consumption with high performance.
