Intersil introduces 1.4 GHz current feedback amplifiers for high speed video and communications.Intersil Corporation (Nasdaq:ISIL) has introduced three 1.4 GHz current feedback amplifiers (CFAs CFA - Chartered Financial Analyst CFA - California Faculty Association CFA - California Fashion Association CFA - California Fertilizer Association CFA - California Flight Academy CFA - California Forestry Association CFA - Call for Action, Inc. CFA - Call-Forward Area CFA - Campus Freethought Alliance CFA - Canadian Federation of Agriculture CFA - Canadian Flag Association CFA - Canadian Football Association CFA - Canadian Forestry Association) with capacitive drive capability. The latest addition to Intersil's new high speed operational amplifier operational amplifier, amplifier whose output voltage is proportional to the negative of its input voltage and that boosts the amplitude of an input signal many times, i.e., has a very high gain. It is usually connected so that part of the output is fed back to the input. Operational amplifiers were originally developed to be used in synthesizing mathematical operations in analog computers, hence their name. portfolio, the Elantec EL5166 and EL5167 are designed to meet the high bandwidth, high slew rate (1) How fast paper moves through a printer (ips). (2) The speed of changing voltage. requirements of today's high Today's High The intra-day high trading price.Notes: In other words, this is the highest price that a stock traded at during the course of the day. More often than not this is higher than the closing price. See also: Today's Low performance video, test and instrumentation, and other high frequency applications. Intersil's Elantec EL5166 and EL5167 feature unity gain bandwidths of 1.4 GHz. The EL5166 and EL5167 offer 6,000 volt-per-microsecond slew rates while exhibiting low distortion of 1.7 nanovolts (nV) per root hertz. With a supply current of just 8.3 milliamps (mA) and operating from a +/- 5V split supply, Intersil's new current feedback amplifiers offer very high performance while consuming very little power. "We continue to add best-in-class products to our Elantec family of op amps, and the EL5166 and EL5167 offer unmatched CFA performance," said Sameer Vuyyuru, Intersil's director of marketing for video and op amps. "This initial offering of current feedback amps is ideally suited for a variety of high performance video, cable driver and high frequency applications where high slew rates and wide -3dB bandwidths are critical factors. When combined with their low power consumption, these high performance CFAs are particularly well suited for portable, handheld and battery-powered applications. Intersil will continue to add single, dual and triple CFAs to this new family of op amps in the coming months." Intersil's EL5166 and EL5167 feature excellent gain flatness flatness /flat·ness/ (-nes) a peculiar sound lacking resonance, heard on percussing an abnormally solid part., with typical performance of 1.4 GHz at -3dB and 100 MHz at 0.1dB. They feature differential gain and differential phase of 0.01% and 0.03 degrees, respectively. Both devices operate with supply voltages ranging from a single 5-volt to 10-volt supply or off a split +/-5V supply, and have a wide common mode output range. The EL5166 incorporates an enable and disable function to reduce the supply current to 100 microamps per amplifier. As with all current feedback amplifiers, CFA stability is dependent upon the feedback resistor used. |
