Intersil Introduces the Industry's Fastest Voltage Feedback Op Amps
-- New family of high-speed devices provide a typical slew rate of 3000 V/us
MILPITAS, CA, August 3, 2004 Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ: ISIL), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high performance analog solutions, introduced today a new family of high-speed feedback amplifiers with the industrys fastest slew rates. The EL5x0x series of op amps provide the dynamic performance of current feedback amplifiers along with the ease-of-use and DC accuracy of a voltage feedback amplifier.
Our new family of high-speed voltage feedback op amps are clearly the industrys finest and they underscore our commitment to provide devices that are unique, differentiated and yet simple to use," said Sameer Vuyyuru, Intersil's director of marketing for video and op amps. "We anticipate that these new high-speed voltage feedback amplifiers will add value to many complex current feedback applications that deal with capacitive loads at high speeds."
The EL5x0x high-speed amplifiers allow designers to use highly stable, easy voltage feedback architecture without sacrificing the high-speed benefits of a current feedback amplifier. The new op amps are ideally suited for a wide range of applications including video amplifiers, portable computers, high-speed communications, A/D drivers line drivers, RGB applications, broadcast equipment and active filtering.
The EL5104, EL5105, EL5204, EL5205, and EL5304 are available in single, dual and triple versions, with 200 MHz, 400 MHz, and 700 MHz versions. They operate on single 5V or +/-5V supplies from minimum supply current. The EL5104 and EL5204 also feature an output enable function, which can be used to put the output in to a high-impedance mode. This enables the outputs of multiple amplifiers to be tied together for use in multiplexing applications. The resulting performance will now enable many high-speed low gain applications to go to market faster and with less cost.
