EL2141CS-T13

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The EL2141CS-T13 is a high-bandwidth differential amplifier designed for driving twisted pair lines and noisy environments. It features fully differential inputs, outputs, and feedback with a stable minimum gain of two. The device operates on ±5V supplies or +6V single supply, providing a 150MHz -3dB bandwidth and an 800V/µs slew rate. It delivers a minimum output current of 50mA into a 200Ω load, with short-circuit protection on both outputs.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Feature Summary

• Fully differential input, output, and feedback architecture
• Adjustable voltage gain starting from a stable minimum of two
• Integrated short circuit protection on both output pins
• Low power consumption with typical supply current of 11mA

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Applications

• Twisted pair driver
• ADSL/HDSL driver
• Single ended to differential amplification
• Transmission of analog signals in a noisy environment

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix T13 against manufacturer documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging requirements. Ensure the component meets the recommended operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Confirm that the ordering information matches the exact package type and thermal specifications required for the target application design.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when a fully differential output is required with adjustable gain capabilities. The EL2141 differs from the EL2140 by allowing user-defined gain settings via external feedback resistors. It is suitable for applications requiring low distortion and high common-mode rejection ratios in differential signaling environments.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the EL2140/EL2141 family of 150MHz differential twisted pair drivers manufactured by Intersil (now Renesas). The EL2141 variant specifically provides configurable gain through dedicated feedback inputs, whereas the EL2140 maintains a fixed gain of two. Both share identical pinouts and core performance characteristics.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

The EL2140 serves as a functional substitute if a fixed gain of two is acceptable. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 8-pin SOIC package and supports the required differential signal processing specifications.
