General Description

The single MAX4036/MAX4037 and dual MAX4038/
MAX4039 operational amplifiers operate from a single
+1.4V to +3.6V (without reference) or +1.8V to +3.6V (with
reference) supply and consume only 800nA of supply
current per amplifier, and 1.1µA for the optional refer-
ence. The MAX4036/MAX4038 feature a common-mode
input voltage range from 0V to V

DD

- 0.4V at V

DD

= 1.4V.

The MAX4037/MAX4039 feature a 1.232V voltage refer-
ence capable of sourcing 100µA and sinking 20µA.

The MAX4036–MAX4039s’ Rail-to-Rail

®

outputs drive

5kΩ loads to within 25mV of the rails. Ultra-low supply
current, low operating voltage, and rail-to-rail outputs
make the MAX4036–MAX4039 ideal for use in single-
cell lithium-ion (Li+), or two-cell NiCd/NiMH/alkaline
battery-powered applications.

The MAX4036 is available in an SC70 package, the
MAX4037 in a SOT23 package, and the MAX4038/
MAX4039 in µMAX and TDFN packages. All devices
are specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended tem-
perature range.
