Quad-Channel, Ultra-Low-Noise Amplifier with
Digitally Programmable Input Impedance
General Description
Features
♦ High-Level Integration of 4 Channels
The MAX2034 four-channel, low-power, ultra-low-noise
preamplifier is designed for ultrasound and medical
instrumentation applications. Each low-noise amplifier
has a single-ended input, differential output, a highly
accurate 19dB fixed gain, and a wide -3dB bandwidth
of 70MHz. The high-gain accuracy of the amplifier
allows for exceptional channel-to-channel gain match-
ing, which is necessary for high-performance ultra-
sound-imaging applications. The MAX2034 also
includes an on-chip programmable input impedance
feature that allows the device to be compatible with a
variety of common source impedances ranging from
50Ω to 1kΩ. The input impedance of each amplifier
uses a feedback topology for active impedance match-
ing. The active input impedance matching feature
achieves an exceptionally low 2.2dB noise figure with a
source and input impedance of 200Ω.

common input impedances, the internal digitally pro-
grammed impedances can be used (see Table 1). For
other input impedances, program the impedance for
external resistor operation, and then use an externally
supplied resistor to set the input impedance according
to the above formula.
The MAX2034 is a four-channel, ultra-low-noise pream-
plifier. Each amplifier features single-ended inputs, dif-
ferential outputs, and provides an accurate fixed gain of
19dB with a wide -3dB bandwidth of 70MHz. The high-
gain accuracy of the amplifier allows for exceptional
channel-to-channel gain matching, which is necessary
for high-performance ultrasound-imaging applications.
The device has an exceptionally low noise figure, making
it ideal for use in ultrasound front-end designs. Noise fig-
ure is typically 2.2dB for a source impedance and pro-
grammed input impedance of 200Ω.
The gain and input impedance of the MAX2034 vs. fre-
quency are shown in the Typical Operating Char-
acteristics. Both gain and input impedance are well
behaved, with no peaking characteristics. This allows
the device to be used with a variety of input networks,
with no requirement for series ferrite beads or shunt
capacitors for stability control.
The MAX2034 is optimized for excellent dynamic range
and linearity performance characteristics, making it ideal
for ultrasound-imaging modalities including second har-
monic 2D imaging and continuous wave Doppler. The

Digitally Programmable Input Impedance
Digitally Programmable Input Impedance
Functional Diagram
The MAX2034 features an on-chip digitally programma-
ble input impedance, which makes the part compatible
D2/D1/D0
with a variety of source impedances ranging from 50Ω
to 1kΩ. The input impedance can be programmed for
PD
50Ω, 100Ω, 200Ω, or 1kΩ through the digital inputs D2,
D1, and D0. See Table 1 for programming details. In
addition to these fixed values, virtually any other input
ZF1
impedance can be supported by using an off-chip
external feedback resistor, R . To utilize this feature, set
F
D2, D1, and D0 to any of the four external resistor-con-
trolled states shown in Table 1. The value of the off-chip
feedback resistor can be determined by using the fol-
lowing relationship:

where R is the source impedance, and A is the gain of

Noise Figure
The MAX2034 is designed to provide maximum input
sensitivity with its exceptionally low noise figure. The
input active devices are selected for very low equiva-
lent input noise voltage and current, and they have
been optimized for source impedances from 50Ω to
1000Ω. Additionally, the noise contribution of the
matching resistor is effectively divided by 1 + (A / 2).
Using this scheme, typical noise figure of the amplifier

is approximately 2.2dB for R = R = 200Ω. Table 2

Input Clamp
The MAX2034 includes configurable integrated input-
clamping diodes. The diodes are clamped to ground at
275mV. The input-clamping diodes can be used to
prevent large transmit signals from overdriving the inputs
of the amplifiers. Overdriving the inputs could possibly
place charge on the input-coupling capacitor, causing
longer transmit overload recovery times. Input signals
are AC-coupled to the single-ended inputs IN1–IN4, but
are clamped with the INC1–INC4 inputs. See the Typical
Application Circuit. If external clamping devices are pre-
ferred, simply leave INC1–INC4 unconnected.

Quad-Channel, Ultra-Low-Noise Amplifier with
Digitally Programmable Input Impedance
The Typical Application Circuit illustrates these cou-
pling capacitors. If a ground-referenced current-limiting
stage precedes the MAX2034 inputs, its output can be
connected to the integrated clamping diodes on pins
INC1–INC4 to facilitate very rapid recovery from tran-
sient overloads associated with transmitter operation in
ultrasound applications.
Integrated Input Damping Capacitor
At high frequencies, gain peaking can occur due to an
active input termination becoming less effective when
the gain rolls off. Although an external shunting capaci-
tor can be used to mitigate this effect, different input
impedance modes require different capacitor values.
The MAX2034 integrates a damping capacitor for each
of the four programmed input impedance modes. When
the input impedance is programmed by applying the
appropriate D2/D1/D0, an optimal capacitor value is
also chosen for the particular input impedance mode,
eliminating the need for external capacitors.
Analog Output Coupling
The differential outputs of the MAX2034 are capable of
driving a differential load impedance of 200Ω or
greater. The differential output has a common-mode
bias of approximately 2.45V. AC-couple these differen-
tial outputs if the next stage has a different common-
mode input range.
Overload Recovery
The device is also optimized for quick overload recov-
ery for operation under the large input signal conditions
that are typically found in ultrasound input-buffer imag-
ing applications. Internal signal clipping is symmetrical.
Input overloads can be prevented with the input-clamp-
ing diodes. See the Typical Operating Characteristics
that illustrate the rapid recovery time from a transmit-
related overload.
Board Layout
The pin configuration of the MAX2034 is optimized to
facilitate a very compact physical layout of the device
and its associated discrete components. A typical
application for this device might incorporate several
devices in close proximity to handle multiple channels
of signal processing.
Sleep Mode
The sleep mode function allows the MAX2034 to be
configured in a low-power state when the amplifiers are
not being used. In sleep mode, all amplifiers are pow-
ered down, the total supply current of the device
reduces to 0.8mA, and the input impedance of each
amplifier is set at high impedance. Drive the PD input
high to activate sleep mode. For normal operation,
drive the PD input low.
The exposed paddle (EP) of the MAX2034’s thin QFN-
EP package provides a low thermal-resistance path to
the die. It is important that the PC board on which the
MAX2034 is mounted be designed to conduct heat
from the EP. In addition, provide the EP with a low-
inductance path to electrical ground. The EP MUST be
soldered to a ground plane on the PC board, either
directly or through an array of plated via holes.
Applications Information
Analog Input Coupling
AC-couple to ground the analog bypass input by con-
necting a 0.1µF capacitor at the INB1–INB4 input to
GND (0.1µF recommended). Since the amplifiers are
designed with a differential input stage, bypassing the
INB1–INB4 inputs configures the MAX2034 for single-
ended inputs at IN1–IN4.
-25dB
ULTRASOUND IMD3
Connect the IN1–IN4 inputs to their source circuits
through 0.1µF series capacitors. Connect the feedback
ports ZF1–ZF4 to the source circuits through 0.018µF
capacitors. (These capacitors will be 1/(5.5) as large as
the input-coupling capacitors. This equalizes the high-
pass filter characteristic of both the input and feedback
input ports, due to the feedback resistance related by a
factor of 1/(5.5) to the input impedance.)
Note that the active input circuitry of the MAX2034 is
stable, and does not require external ferrite beads or
shunt capacitors to achieve high-frequency stability.

Ultrasound-Specific IMD3 Specification
Unlike typical communications specs, the two input
tones are not equal in magnitude for the ultrasound-
specific IMD3 two-tone specification. In this measure-
ment, F1 represents reflections from tissue and F2
represents reflections from blood. The latter reflections
are typically 25dB lower in magnitude, and hence the
measurement is defined with one input tone 25dB lower
than the other. The IMD3 product of interest (F1 - (F2 -
F1)) presents itself as an undesired Doppler error sig-
nal in ultrasound applications. See Figure 1.
