EL2186CS-T7

Overview

The EL2186CS-T7 is a single current-feedback operational amplifier from the EL2180 family, manufactured by Intersil. It achieves a -3dB bandwidth of 250MHz at a gain of +1 while consuming only 3mA of supply current per amplifier. The device operates with dual supplies ranging from ±1.5V to ±6V or single supplies from +3V to +12V. It features a disable/power-down function that reduces current consumption to 0mA and places the output in a high-impedance state. The amplifier can deliver an output current of 55mA with swings to ±4V on ±5V supplies.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a fast disable feature for power-down capability
• Provides large output drive current capability
• Supports operation with both single and dual power supplies

Applications

• Low power and battery-powered applications
• HDSL amplifiers
• Video broadcast equipment
• Cable drivers

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through official Renesas channels due to discontinued status. Confirm package integrity as moisture sensitivity requires proper handling. Check for valid RoHS compliance documentation before integration into production designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high-speed signal processing with low quiescent current. The disable feature offers significant power savings in standby modes. Ensure supply voltage ranges align with system requirements for optimal performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the EL2180 series of current-feedback amplifiers. It serves as the single-channel variant within a family that includes dual (EL2286) and quad (EL2486) configurations. The series is designed for applications demanding high bandwidth and fast slew rates.

Replacement Considerations

Consider the EL2180 for non-power-down single-channel needs. The EL2286 provides dual-channel functionality. The lower-power EL2170 family offers reduced current consumption at lower bandwidths.
