General Description
The MAX5430/MAX5431 are digitally programmable
high-precision resistor arrays for PGAs. The MAX5430/
MAX5431 operate from a single 15V supply or dual
±15V supplies, and consume only 35µA supply current.
These devices are intended for programmable-gain
amplifier (PGA) applications and consist of fixed resis-
tor-dividers. Each device has digitally controlled con-
tacts with four precision noninverting gains of 1, 2, 4,
and 8 with ratio accuracy of 0.025% (MAX5430A/
MAX5431A), 0.09% (MAX5430B/MAX5431B), or 0.5%
(MAX5430C/MAX5431C). The MAX5431 includes an
on-chip matching resistor for op amp input bias-current
compensation.
The MAX5430/MAX5431 are available in space-saving
8-pin SOT23 and 10-pin µMAX®packages, and speci-
fied over the extended temperature range of (-40°C to
+85°C).

Detailed Description
The MAX5430/MAX5431 are digitally programmable pre-
cision resistor arrays. These devices have fixed resistor-
dividers with digitally controlled contacts, providing four
precision noninverting gains of 1, 2, 4, and 8 for PGA
applications (see Functional Diagram and Figure 1). The
MAX5430/MAX5431 achieve ratio accuracies of 0.025%
(MAX5430A/MAX5431A), 0.09% (MAX5430B/MAX5431B),
or 0.5% (MAX5430C/MAX5431C).
The end-to-end resistance from H to L is 57k. The
impedance seen at W is designed to be the same 14k
for gain settings 2, 4, and 8, ensuring excellent op amp
input-resistance balance, regardless of gain setting. In
a gain of 1 configuration, H is internally connected to W
with a typical resistance of 500.
Matching Resistor (MAX5431)
The MAX5431 includes a matching resistor to compen-
sate the offset voltage due to the input bias current of
the op amp. The resistance from MATCH_H to
MATCH_L is a fixed matching resistor, equal to the
resistance seen at W for gains of 2, 4, and 8. In the
gain of 1, an internal switch short circuits MATCH_H
and MATCH_L. This internal switch matches the imped-
ance of the switch between H and W.

Table 1. Logic-Control Truth Table
Digital Interface Operation
The MAX5430/MAX5431 feature a simple two-bit paral-
lel programming interface. D1 and D0 program the gain
setting according to the Logic-Control Truth Table (see
Table 1). The digital interface is CMOS/TTL logic com-
patible.
Applications Information
Programmable-Gain Amplifier
The MAX5430/MAX5431 are ideally suited for high-pre-
cision PGA applications. The typical application circuit
of Figure 2 uses the MAX5431 with matching resistor to
compensate for voltage offset due to op amp input bias
currents. Use the MAX5430 with an ultra-low input bias
current op amp (see Figure 3).
Power Supplies and Bypassing
The MAX5430/MAX5431 operate from dual ±15V sup-
plies or a single 15V supply. For dual supplies, bypass
VDD and VSS with 0.1µF ceramic capacitors to GND.
For single supply, connect VSS to GND and bypass
VDD with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND.
Switching Time and Layout Concerns
The switching time of the MAX5430/MAX5431 depends
on the capacitive loading at W. For best performance,
reduce parasitic board capacitance by minimizing the
circuit board trace from W to the op amp inverting input,
and choose an op amp with low input capacitance.
