Description
The EL1516 is a dual, ultra low noise amplifier, ideally suited to line receiving applications in ADSL, VDSL, and home PNA designs. With low noise specification of just 1.3nV/√Hz and 1.5pA/√Hz, the EL1516 is perfect for the detection of very low amplitude signals.
The EL1516 features a -3dB bandwidth of 350MHz @ AV = -1 and is gain-of-2 stable. The EL1516 also affords minimal power dissipation with a supply current of just 5.5mA per amplifier. The amplifier can be powered from supplies ranging from 5V to 12V.
The EL1516A incorporates an enable and disable function to reduce the supply current to 5nA typical per amplifier, allowing the EN pins to float or apply a low logic level will enable the amplifiers.
The EL1516 is available in space-saving 8 Ld MSOP and industry-standard 8 Ld SOIC packages and the EL1516A is available in a 10 Ld MSOP package. All are specified for operation over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
Applications
- ADSL receivers
- VDSL receivers
- Home PNA receivers
- Ultrasound input amplifiers
- Wideband instrumentation
- Communications equipment
- AGC and PLL active filters
- Wideband sensors
