Ultra-Low Offset/Drift, Low-Noise,
Precision SOT23 Amplifiers
General Description
The MAX4238/MAX4239 are low-noise, low-drift, ultra-
high precision amplifiers that offer near-zero DC offset
and drift through the use of patented autocorrelating
zeroing techniques. This method constantly measures
and compensates the input offset, eliminating drift over
time and temperature and the effect of 1/f noise. Both
devices feature rail-to-rail outputs, operate from a single
2.7V to 5.5V supply, and consume only 600µA. An active-
low shutdown mode decreases supply current to 0.1µA.
The MAX4238 is unity-gain stable with a gain-band-
width product of 1MHz, while the decompensated
MAX4239 is stable with A
V
≥
10V/V and a GBWP of
6.5MHz. The MAX4238/MAX4239 are available in 8-pin
narrow SO, 6-pin TDFN and SOT23 packages.

Note 1:
Guaranteed by design. Thermocouple and leakage effects preclude measurement of this parameter during production
testing. Devices are screened during production testing to eliminate defective units.
Note 2:
IN+ and IN- are gates to CMOS transistors with typical input bias current of 1pA. CMOS leakage is so small that it is
impractical to test and guarantee in production. Devices are screened during production testing to eliminate defective units.
Note 3:
Leakage does not include leakage through feedback resistors.
Note 4:
Overload recovery time is the time required for the device to recover from saturation when the output has been
driven to either rail.
Note 5:
Specifications are 100% tested at T
A
= +25°C, unless otherwise noted. Limits over temperature are guaranteed by design.
