LM7121
235 MHz Tiny Low Power Voltage Feedback Amplifier
General Description
The LM7121 is a high performance operational amplifier
which addresses the increasing AC performance needs of
video and imaging applications, and the size and power
constraints of portable applications.
The LM7121 can operate over a wide dynamic range of
supply voltages, from 5V (single supply) up to
g
15V (see
the Application Information section for more details). It of-
fers an excellent speed-power product delivering 1300V/
m
s
and 235 MHz Bandwidth (
b
3 dB, A
V
e a
1). Another key
feature of this operational amplifier is stability while driving
unlimited capacitive loads.
Due to its Tiny SOT23-5 package, the LM7121 is ideal for
designs where space and weight are the critical parameters.
The benefits of the Tiny package are evident in small porta-
ble electronic devices, such as cameras, and PC video
cards. Tiny amplifiers are so small that they can be placed
anywhere on a board close to the signal source or near the
input to an A/D converter.
