CA5260M

Overview

The CA5260M is a dual operational amplifier from the BiMOS family, featuring MOSFET input and CMOS output stages. It offers a bandwidth of 3 MHz and a maximum input offset voltage of 20 mV. The device operates on supply voltages ranging from 4.5 V to 16 V or ±2.25 V to ±8 V. It utilizes an SOIC-8 plastic package with a temperature range spanning -55 °C to 125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates PMOS input transistors for high impedance and low bias current
• CMOS output stage enables rail-to-rail voltage swing capability
• Compatible with standard microprocessor logic systems

Applications

• Microprocessor interface circuits
• Logic system signal conditioning
• Single-supply analog applications

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through official manufacturer channels or authorized distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status as specific variants may differ. Ensure the package type matches the required PCB footprint. Validate the operating temperature range against environmental specifications before integration into final designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high input impedance and compatibility with 5V logic systems are required. Consider the 3 MHz bandwidth for moderate-speed signal processing tasks. Evaluate the SOIC-8 package constraints against available board space. Compare performance metrics against single-channel alternatives if only one amplifier is needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CA5260 series of BiMOS operational amplifiers originally developed by Intersil. The series combines the advantages of CMOS and bipolar technologies on a monolithic chip. It serves as a dual version of the popular CA5160 series, designed specifically for operation in microprocessor environments.

Replacement Considerations

The CA5260AM96 is a documented equivalent variant from Intersil Corporation. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution. Check for any differences in package markings or manufacturing dates that might affect sourcing.
