What this single op-amp does on your board
The MAX4291EXK+T is a single general-purpose operational amplifier from Analog Devices, packing a 500 kHz gain-bandwidth product and rail-to-rail output into a 5-pin SC-70 package. It runs on a 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply span and draws only 100 µA quiescent current, making it a natural fit for battery-powered sensor conditioning, portable instrumentation, and single-supply signal chains where board space is tight. The 0.2 V/µs slew rate and 400 µV input offset voltage are typical for this class — adequate for DC-accurate buffering and low-frequency filtering, not for high-speed video or fast ADC driving.
Lifecycle and sourcing — still active, no LTB risk
The MAX4291EXK+T is listed as Active and ROHS3 compliant. There is no NRND or last-time-buy notice on record.
