• Manufacturer Part Number: MAX4061ETA-T
• Description: Microphone Preamplifiers
• Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated

The MAX4062 has a lower bias voltage and low-imped-
ance outputs (optimum electret bias resistor can then
be set externally). This gives a low-noise, flexible solu-
tion that can run from 2.4V to 5.5V, suitable for hand-
held devices such as PDAs that typically have audio
power supplies in the 3V region (see Figure 3).
In applications where the differential microphone is
placed some distance from the MAX4060/MAX4061/
MAX4062, using a remote differential bias scheme as
shown in Figure 4 can provide improved noise rejection.
The output voltage has a DC-bias voltage independent
of the power supplies, resulting in superior PSRR per-
formance. The MAX4061 output is high impedance
when the part is in shutdown mode. AC-coupling the
output into the next audio stage (e.g., CODEC) is rec-
ommended.

The MAX4061 features a low-power, complete shut-
down mode. When SHDN goes low, the supply current
drops to 0.3μA, the output enters a high-impedance
state, and the bias current to the microphone is
switched off. Driving SHDN high enables the amplifier.
SHDN should not be left unconnected.
The MAX4060 operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V single sup-
ply and the MAX4061/MAX4062 operate from a 2.4V to
5.5V single supply. Bypass the power supply with a
0.1μF capacitor to ground. In systems where analog
and digital grounds are available, the MAX4060/
MAX4061 should be connected to the analog ground.
