General Description
The MAX2470/MAX2471 are flexible, low-cost, highreverse-isolation buffer amplifiers for applications with discrete and module-based VCO designs. Both feature differential 50Ω outputs for driving a single differential (balanced) load or two separate single-ended (unbalanced) 50Ω loads. The MAX2470 offers a single-ended input and has two selectable frequency ranges of operation: 10MHz to 500MHz and 10MHz to 200MHz. The MAX2471 offers a differential input and operates from 10MHz to 500MHz. The MAX2470/MAX2471 also feature high input impedance for maximum flexibility, enabling them to be used with a variety of oscillator topologies. High reverse isolation combined with low supply current make them ideal for applications requiring high performance with low power
