EL2250, EL2450 (R) Data Sheet May 19, 2006 125MHz Single Supply Dual/Quad Op Amps Features The EL2250/EL2450 are part of a family of the electronics industries fastest single supply op amps available. Prior single supply op amps have generally been limited to bandwidths and slew rates to that of the EL2250/EL2450. The 125MHz bandwidth, 275V/s slew rate, and 0.05%/0.05 differential gain/differential phase makes this part ideal for single or dual supply video speed applications. With its voltage feedback architecture, this amplifier can accept reactive feedback networks, allowing them to be used in analog filtering applications. The inputs can sense signals below the bottom supply rail and as high as 1.2V below the top rail. Connecting the load resistor to ground and operating from a single supply, the outputs swing completely to ground without saturating. The outputs can also drive to within 1.2V of the top rail. The EL2250/EL2450 will output 100mA and will operate with single supply voltages as low as 2.7V, making them ideal for portable, low power applications. * Specified for +3V, +5V, or 5V applications The EL2250/EL2450 are available in PDIP and SO packages in industry standard pin outs. Both parts operate over the industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C, and are part of a family of single supply op amps. For single amplifier applications, see the EL2150/EL2157. For dual and triple amplifiers with power down and output voltage clamps, see the EL2257/EL2357.

Connected in voltage follower mode, their -3dB bandwidth is 125MHz while maintaining a 275V/s slew rate. With an input and output common mode range that includes ground, these amplifiers were optimized for single supply operation, but will also accept dual supplies. They operate on a total supply voltage range as low as +2.7V or up to +12V. This makes them ideal for +3V applications, especially portable computers. While many amplifiers claim to operate on a single supply, and some can sense ground at their inputs, most fail to truly drive their outputs to ground. If they do succeed in driving to ground, the amplifier often saturates, causing distortion and recovery delays. However, special circuitry built into the EL2250/EL2450 allows the output to follow the input signal to ground without recovery delays. Power Supply Bypassing And Printed Circuit Board Layout As with any high-frequency device, good printed circuit board layout is necessary for optimum performance. Ground plane construction is highly recommended. Lead lengths should be as short as possible. The power supply pins must be well bypassed to reduce the risk of oscillation. The combination of a 4.7F tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1F ceramic capacitor has been shown to work well when placed at each supply pin. For single supply operation, where the GND pin is connected to the ground plane, a single 4.7F tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1F ceramic capacitor across the VS+ and GND pins will suffice. For good AC performance, parasitic capacitance should be kept to a minimum. Ground plane construction should be 10 used. Carbon or Metal-Film resistors are acceptable with the Metal-Film resistors giving slightly less peaking and bandwidth because of their additional series inductance. Use of sockets, particularly for the SO package should be avoided if possible. Sockets add parasitic inductance and capacitance which will result in some additional peaking and overshoot. Supply Voltage Range and Single-Supply Operation The EL2250/EL2450 have been designed to operate with supply voltages having a span of greater than 2.7V, and less than 12V. In practical terms, this means that the EL2250/EL2450 will operate on dual supplies ranging from 1.35V to 6V. With a single-supply, the EL2250/EL2450 will operate from +2.7V to +12V. Performance has been optimized for a single +5V supply. Pins 8 and 4 are the power supply pins on the EL2250. The positive power supply is connected to pin 8. When used in single supply mode, pin 4 is connected to ground. When used in dual supply mode, the negative power supply is connected to pin 4. Pins 4 and 11 are the power supply pins on the EL2450. The positive power supply is connected to pin 4. When used in single supply mode, pin 11 is connected to ground. When used in dual supply mode, the negative power supply is connected to pin 11. As supply voltages continue to decrease, it becomes necessary to provide input and output voltage ranges that can get as close as possible to the supply voltages. The EL2250/EL2450 have an input voltage range that includes the negative supply and extends to within 1.2V of the positive supply. So, for example, on a single +5V supply, the EL2250/EL2450 have an input range which spans from 0V to 3.8V. FN7061.3 May 19, 2006 EL2250, EL2450 The output range of the EL2250/EL2450 is also quite large. It includes the negative rail, and extends to within 1V of the top supply rail with a 1k load. On a +5V supply, the output is therefore capable of swinging from 0V to +4V. On split supplies, the output will swing 4V. If the load resistor is tied to the negative rail and split supplies are used, the output range is extended to the negative rail. value. While driving a light load, such as 1k, if the input black level is kept above 1.25V, dG and dP are a respectable 0.03% and 0.03. Choice Of Feedback Resistor, RF In spite of their moderately low 5mA of supply current, the EL2250/EL2450 are capable of providing 100mA of output current into a 10 load, or 60mA into 50. With this large output current capability, a 50 load can be driven to 3V with VS = 5V, making it an excellent choice for driving isolation transformers in telecommunications applications. The feedback resistor forms a pole with the input capacitance. As this pole becomes larger, phase margin is reduced. This increases ringing in the time domain and peaking in the frequency domain. Therefore, RF has some maximum value which should not be exceeded for optimum performance. If a large value of RF must be used, a small capacitor in the few picofarad range in parallel with RF can help to reduce this ringing and peaking at the expense of reducing the bandwidth. As far as the output stage of the amplifier is concerned, RF + RG appear in parallel with RL for gains other than +1. As this combination gets smaller, the bandwidth falls off. Consequently, RF has a minimum value that should not be exceeded for optimum performance. For AV = +1, RF = 0 is optimum. For AV = -1 or +2 (noise gain of 2), optimum response is obtained with RF between 500 and 1k. For AV = -4 or +5 (noise gain of 5), keep RF between 2k and 10k. Video Performance For good video performance, an amplifier is required to maintain the same output impedance and the same frequency response as DC levels are changed at the output. This can be difficult when driving a standard video load of 150, because of the change in output current with DC level. Differential Gain and Differential Phase for the EL2250/EL2450 are specified with the black level of the output video signal set to +1.2V. This allows ample room for the sync pulse even in a gain of +2 configuration. This results in dG and dP specifications of 0.05% and 0.05 while driving 150 at a gain of +2. Setting the black level to other values, although acceptable, will compromise peak performance. For example, looking at the single supply dG and dP curves for RL = 150, if the output black level clamp is reduced from 1.2V to 0.6V dG/dP will increase from 0.05%/0.05 to 0.08%/0.25 Note that in a gain of +2 configuration, this is the lowest black level allowed such that the sync tip doesn't go below 0V. If your application requires that the output goes to ground, then the output stage of the EL2250/EL2450, like all other single supply op amps, requires an external pull down resistor tied to ground. As mentioned above, the current flowing through this resistor becomes the DC bias current for the output stage NPN transistor. As this current approaches zero, the NPN turns off, and dG and dP will increase. This becomes more critical as the load resistor is increased in 11 For other biasing conditions see the Differential Gain and Differential Phase vs. Input Voltage curves. Output Drive Capability Driving Cables and Capacitive Loads When used as a cable driver, double termination is always recommended for reflection-free performance. For those applications, the back-termination series resistor will decouple the EL2250/EL2450 from the cable and allow extensive capacitive drive. However, other applications may have high capacitive loads without a back-termination resistor. In these applications, a small series resistor (usually between 5 and 50) can be placed in series with the output to eliminate most peaking. The gain resistor (RG) can then be chosen to make up for any gain loss which may be created by this additional resistor at the output. Video Sync Pulse Remover Application All CMOS Analog to Digital Converters (A/Ds) have a parasitic latch-up problem when subjected to negative input voltage levels. Since the sync tip contains no useful video information and it is a negative going pulse, we can chop it off. Figure 1 shows a unity gain connected amplifier A of an EL2250. Figure 2 shows the complete input video signal applied at the input, as well as the output signal with the negative going sync pulse removed. FIGURE 1.

Short Circuit Current Limit The EL2250/EL2450 have internal short circuit protection circuitry that protect it in the event of its output being shorted to either supply rail. This limit is set to around 100mA nominally and reduces with increasing junction temperature. It is intended to handle temporary shorts. If an output is shorted indefinitely, the power dissipation could easily increase such that the part will be destroyed. Maximum reliability is maintained if the output current never exceeds 90mA. A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature below absolute maximum when an output is shorted indefinitely. Power Dissipation JA = Thermal Resistance of the Package PDMAX = Maximum Power Dissipation in the Package. The maximum power dissipation actually produced by an IC is the total quiescent supply current times the total power supply voltage, plus the power in the IC due to the load, or [2]: V OUT PD MAX = N x V s x I SMAX + ( V S - V OUT ) x ---------------- RL where: N = Number of amplifiers VS = Total Supply Voltage ISMAX = Maximum Supply Current per amplifier With the high output drive capability of the EL2250/EL2450, it is possible to exceed the 150C Absolute Maximum junction temperature under certain load current conditions. Therefore, it is important to calculate the maximum junction temperature for the application to determine if power-supply voltages, load conditions, or package type need to be modified for the EL2250/EL2450 to remain in the safe operating area. VOUT = Maximum Output Voltage of the Application RL = Load Resistance tied to Ground If we set the two PDMAX equations, [1] & [2], equal to each other, and solve for VS, we can get a family of curves for various loads and output voltages according to [3]: R L x ( T JMAX - T AMAX ) --------------------------------------------------------------- + ( V OUT ) N x JA V S = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------( IS x R L ) + V OUT Figures 3 through 6 below show total single supply voltage VS vs. RL for various output voltage swings for the PDIP and SO packages.
