The MAX268ACWG+ is a high-frequency, high-speed operational amplifier (op-amp) integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Maxim Integrated. It is an enhanced version of the original MAX268, offering improved performance and additional features. This IC is widely used in various applications, including high-speed signal conditioning, data acquisition systems, and wideband video amplification.
One key feature of the MAX268ACWG+ is its wide bandwidth, which is specified at 600MHz, allowing for the amplification of high-frequency signals accurately. This makes it suitable for applications that require a high-frequency response, such as high-speed data transmission or video signal amplification.
The op-amp is unity-gain stable and provides a gain bandwidth product of 720MHz, ensuring reliable and distortion-free amplification across a wide frequency range. It has a low input voltage noise of 1.7nV/√Hz and a low total harmonic distortion of 0.08% when loaded with 150-ohm resistive loads. These characteristics make it ideal for applications that require low noise and high-fidelity amplification.
Another essential feature is the IC's fast settling time, which is less than 12ns to 0.1% for a 2V step
