General Description
The MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 are a family of high-
performance ADSL drivers and drivers/receivers ideal
for the upstream transmit path and the downstream
receive path of customer premise equipment. These
devices operate from a single 5V supply and deliver up
to 12.5dBm average line power for DMT modulated sig-
nals, meeting the requirements of full-rate ADSL.
Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) at full output
power is typically -75dBC at 100kHz.
The MAX4361 is a differential IN/differential OUT driver
with a fixed gain of 3.1V/V. The MAX4362 is a dual
amplifier with shutdown intended for use as a differen-
tial IN/differential OUT driver with gain set with external
resistors. The MAX4363 is a quad amplifier with shut-
down intended for use as a differential IN/differential
OUT driver/receiver combination with gain set with
external resistors.
The MAX4361 is offered in a space-saving 8-pin µMAX
package.

Detailed Description
The MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 are a family of high-
performance ADSL drivers and drivers/receivers ideal
for the upstream transmit path and the downstream
receive path of customer premise equipment. These
devices operate from a single 5V supply and deliver up
to 12.5dBm average line power for DMT modulated sig-
nals, meeting the requirements of full-rate ADSL. SFDR
at full output power is typically -75dBc at 100kHz.
Differential In/Differential Out ADSL Driver
(MAX4361)
The MAX4361 is a differential line driver with a fixed
gain of 3.1V/V. The gain is set by three internal resistors.
Uncommitted Dual Amplifier for ADSL
Driver (MAX4362)
The MAX4362 is a dual amplifier with shutdown intend-
ed for use as a differential IN/differential OUT driver
with gain set with external resistors
Uncommitted Quad Amplifier for ADSL
Driver/Receiver (MAX4363)
The MAX4363 is a quad amplifier with shutdown intended
for use as a differential IN/differential OUT driver/receiver
combination with gain set with external resistors.
Shutdown
The MAX4362/MAX4363 feature a low-power shutdown
mode. When the SHDN pin is pulled high, the supply
current drops to 70µA, and the amplifiers outputs are
placed in a high-impedance disable mode. Connect
SHDN to GND for normal operation.

Applications Information
Power Supply and Decoupling
The MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 should be powered
from a well-regulated, low-noise, 4.5V to 5.5V supply in
order to optimize the ADSL upstream drive capability to
+12.5dBm and maintain the best SFDR.
High-quality capacitors with low equivalent series resis-
tance (ESR) such as multilayer ceramic capacitors
(MLCCs) should be used to minimize supply voltage
ripple and power dissipation. A larger capacitor located
in proximity to the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363
improves decoupling for lower frequency signals.
In addition, 0.1µF MLCC decoupling capacitors should
be located as close as possible to each of the power-
supply pins, no more than 1/8 inch away. An additional
large (4.7µF to 10µF) tantalum capacitor should be
placed on the board near the supply terminals to sup-
ply current for fast, large-signal changes at the
MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 outputs.
MAX4361/MAX4362
The MAX4361/MAX4362 require a single 0.1µF bypass
from V+ to ground located as close as possible to the
IC leads.
MAX4363
The MAX4363 features separate supply and ground
pins for the receiver and driver amplifiers. Bypass the
V+ (RX) supply to the GND (RX) pin with a 0.1µF capaci-
tor. Bypass the V+ (TX) supply to the GND (TX) pin with
a separate 0.1µF capacitor. Both capacitors should be
placed as close as possible to their respective IC leads.
USB Applications
The 5V supplied at the universal serial bus (USB) port
may be poorly regulated or unable to supply the peak
currents required by an ADSL modem. Improving the
quality of the supply will optimize the performance of
the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 in a USB-supplied
CPE ADSL modem. This can be accomplished through
the use of a step-up DC-to-DC converter or switching
power supply followed by a low-dropout (LDO) regula-
tor. Careful attention must be paid to decoupling the
power supply at the output of the DC-to-DC converter,
the output of the LDO regulator and the supply pins of
the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363.
Driving a Capacitive Load
The MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 are capable of dri-
ving capacitive loads up to 2nF. Most hybrid circuits
are well under this limit. For additional capacitive-drive
capability use isolation resistors between the output
and the load to reduce ringing on the output signal. In a
typical hybrid the back-matching resistors provide suffi-
cient isolation for most any capacitive-loading condition
(see Figure 1).
Method for Generating a Midsupply
Voltage
To operate an amplifier on a single-voltage supply, a
voltage midway between the supply and ground must be
generated to properly bias the inputs and the outputs.
A voltage divider can be created with two equal-value
resistors (Figure 2). There is a trade-off between the
power consumed by the divider and the voltage drop
across these resistors due to the positive input bias
currents. Selecting 2.7kfor R1 and R2 will create a
voltage divider that draws less than 1mA from a 5V
supply. Use a decoupling capacitor (0.1µF) at the node
where VREF is generated.
Power Dissipation
It is important to consider the total power dissipation of
the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 in order to properly
size the heat sink area of an application. With some
simplifying assumptions we can estimate the total
power dissipated in the driver (see Typical Operating

Circuit). If the output current is large compared to the
quiescent current, computing the dissipation in the out-
put devices and adding it to the quiescent power dissi-
pation will give a close approximation of the total power
dissipation in the package.
For a 12.5dBm average line power on a 100line, the
RMS current is 13.4mA. With a one-to-four transformer
the driver therefore supplies 53.6mA RMS. It can be
shown for a DMT signal the ratio of RMS current to the
average rectified current is 0.8. The total power con-
sumption is approximately
PCONS = 0.8 53.6 x 5V = 214mW
of which 18mW is delivered as line power and 18mW is
dissipated in the back-matching resistors. Hence the
average power consumption of the IC is approximately
178mW + quiescent power (110mW), or 288mW. For
the MAX4361 in an 8-pin µMAX package, this corre-
sponds to a temperature rise of 64°C. With an ambient
temperature of +85°C this corresponds to a junction
temperature of +148°C, just below the absolute maxi-
mum of +150°C.
Please note the part is capable of over 200mA RMS,
which could cause thermal shutdown in applications
with elevated ambient temperatures and/or signals with
low crest factors. See Figure 3 for a guide to power der-
ating for each of the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363
packages.
Transformer Selection
Full-rate, customer premise ADSL requires the trans-
mission of a +12.5dBm (18mW) DMT signal. The DMT
signal has a typical crest factor of 5.3, requiring the line
driver to provide peak line power of 27.5dBm (560mW).
The 27.5dBm peak line power translates into a 28.4V
peak-to-peak differential voltage on the 100telephone
line. The maximum low-distortion output swing available
from the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363 line driver on a
5V supply is 3.8V and, taking into account the power
lost due to the back-matching resistance, a step-up
transformer with turns ratio of 3.8 or greater is needed.
In the Typical Operating Circuit, the MAX4363 is cou-
pled to the phone line through a step-up transformer
with a 1:4 turns ratio. R1 and R2 are back-matching
resistors, each 3.1(100/ (2 42)), where 100is
the approximate phone-line impedance. The total differ-
ential load for the MAX4361/MAX4362/MAX4363,
including the termination resistors, is therefore 12.5.
Even under these conditions the MAX4361/MAX4362/
MAX4363 provide low distortion signals to within 0.6V of
the power rails.
Receive Channel Considerations
A transformer used at the output of the differential line
driver to step up the differential output voltage to the line
has the inverse effect on signals received from the line.
A voltage reduction or attenuation equal to the inverse of
the turns ratio is realized in the receive channel of a typi-
cal bridge hybrid. The turns ratio of the transformer may
also be dictated by the ability of the receive circuitry to
resolve low-level signals in the noisy, twisted-pair tele-
phone plant. Higher turns-ratio transformers effectively
reduce the received signal-to-noise ratio due to the
reduction in the received signal strength.
The MAX4363 includes an amplifier with typical voltage
noise of only 8.5nV/Hz and a low-supply current of
2mA/amplifier to be used as the receive channel.
Layout Considerations
Good layout techniques optimize performance by
decreasing the amount of stray capacitance at the
amplifiers inputs and outputs. Excess capacitance will
produce peaking in the amplifiers frequency response.
To decrease stray capacitance, minimize trace lengths
by placing external components as close to the amplifi-
er as possible.
