The latest additions to the Elantec portfolio are triple ultra-high-speed differential operational amplifiers that combine space and power savings with design simplicity.

The latest additions to the Elantec portfolio of differential amplifiers are the world's first triple ultra-high-speed differential operational amplifiers that combine space and power savings with design simplicity Ideal for high speed video and other analogue transmission applications, the new EL5x7x family includes three ultra-high-speed drivers and receivers, the EL5373/4 and 5, that provide three 550MHz amplifiers on a single IC providing the world's first complete high performance solution for RGB video on a single chip

They are also the world's fastest devices of their type for single ended or differential driving of twisted-pair lines in component video systems, where high common mode rejection is required in noisy environments.

Other applications include high-speed analogue transmission or ADSL/HDSL circuits using Cat5 or other twisted pair cables.

Single versions are also available with an EL517x designation.

The triple versions boast closer matching and temperature tracking for all three colour channels.

These ICs also feature very low power.

The EL5374 consumes only 12.5mA per channel and the EL5375 is a triple differential receiver that requires just 9mA per channel.

Slew rate is generally 1000V/us.

The EL5373 is a fixed gain-of-two 450MHz amplifier for double terminated line driving, and the EL5371 250MHz is an 8mA per channel variable gain triple differential driver with a corresponding fixed gain-of-two version called the EL5370.

A corresponding receiver is the EL5372, a 250MHz bandwidth, 6mA per channel device.

Most are available in both single and triple versions.

According to Intersil, the new family provides greater ease of design through improved integration with excellent gain matching, lower power consumption and fixed gain options when compared with conventional discrete differential drivers and receivers.
