Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MAX4315ESE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications: -3dB bandwidth of 97 MHz, slew rate of 310 V/µs, rail-to-rail output type, single circuit configuration, supply current of 7.4 mA, output current per channel of 95 mA, and dual supply voltage range of 4V to 10.5V (single) or ±2V to ±5.25V (dual).

Mechanical Specifications: 16-SOIC surface mount package with 0.154" (3.90mm) width, ensuring PCB footprint and assembly process compatibility.

Functional Specifications: 8:1 multiplexer-amplifier topology for video amplification applications.

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as direct substitutes. The MAX4315ESE+ variant qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MAX4315ESE+ as Primary Substitute: The MAX4315ESE+ is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete MAX4315ESE. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional compatibility in existing circuit designs without modification.

Compliance Advantage: The MAX4315ESE+ holds active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the MAX4315ESE is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or production requiring regulatory compliance, the MAX4315ESE+ is the appropriate selection.

Supply Chain Consideration: The MAX4315ESE+ demonstrates significantly higher inventory availability (57,330 units) compared to the MAX4315ESE (1,964 units), supporting sustained production requirements and reducing supply chain risk.

Packaging: The MAX4315ESE+ is supplied in tube packaging, standard for surface mount components in production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX4315ESE+ directly replace MAX4315ESE in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MAX4315ESE+ is electrically and mechanically identical to the MAX4315ESE. No circuit modifications or PCB redesign are required. Both parts operate with identical bandwidth (97 MHz), slew rate (310 V/µs), supply current (7.4 mA), output current (95 mA), and voltage specifications (4V–10.5V single or ±2V–±5.25V dual).

Q: What is the difference between MAX4315ESE and MAX4315ESE+?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The MAX4315ESE is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the MAX4315ESE+ is active production and ROHS3 compliant. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 16-SOIC surface mount package with 0.154" (3.90mm) width. The MAX4315ESE+ is supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for production quantities.

Q: Why is the MAX4315ESE classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The MAX4315ESE+ represents the active equivalent, ensuring continued availability and regulatory compliance for ongoing applications.

Q: What applications are these parts suitable for?

A: Both parts are designed for 8:1 multiplexer-amplifier applications, specifically video amplification requiring rail-to-rail output, 97 MHz bandwidth, and 310 V/µs slew rate performance.

Q: Is the MAX4315ESE+ suitable for new product designs?

A: Yes. The MAX4315ESE+ is the recommended choice for new designs due to active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and superior inventory availability.
