Op amps balance
performance with frugality
Six new current feedback amplifiers (CFAs) are designed for high-speed video and monitor applications requiring low power consumption
The latest addition to Intersil's new high-speed operational amplifier portfolio, the Elantec EL516X family includes 200, 500 and 600MHz bandwidth amplifiers. Slew rates of 1700 and 4000V/us are achieved while drawing only 0.85 and 1.7mA of current, respectively. "The latest addition to the Elantec op amp family combines high bandwidth and slew rate performance with very low supply current - offering customers the best slew rate to power ratio in the industry today", said Sameer Vuyyuru, Intersil's Director of Marketing for Video and Op Amps.

Switching regulators protect against spikes
High-efficiency 2A integrated FET step-down DC/DC switching regulators support wide operating input voltages and can handle transient spikes up to 100V
"Our new EL516X family of single current feedback amplifiers is a perfect fit for today's battery-powered and portable video applications requiring high bandwidth and slew rate performance and very low power consumption.
A very high 'gain-of-2' bandwidth makes this line the fastest in the industry for double-terminated video applications.
Many of these new CFAs also incorporate power-saving fast enable/disable that reduces supply current to 100uA per amplifier, preserving precious battery run time".
Intersil's latest current feedback amplifiers include the EL5160 and EL5161, which feature 200MHz bandwidths at -3dB and 1700V/us slew rates while operating from a mere 0.85mA supply current.
Intersil's EL5162 and EL5163 offer 500MHz of -3dB bandwidth and 4000V/us slew rates while consuming only 1.7mA of supply current.
For very high bandwidth applications, Intersil offers the new EL5164 and EL5165 current feedback amplifiers featuring 600MHz bandwidths at -3dB and 4000V/us slew rates while requiring only 5mA of supply current.
All these devices operate from single and dual supply range of 5 to 12V.
The EL5160, EL5162 and EL5164 incorporate an enable/disable function to reduce the supply current to 100uA typical per amplifier.
