EL5166IS

Overview

The EL5166IS is a single-channel current feedback amplifier manufactured by Renesas Electronics, formerly Intersil. It features a high bandwidth of 1.4 GHz and a slew rate of 6 kV/us. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 5 V to 12 V with a quiescent current of 8.5 mA. It includes an enable pin for power management. Available in SOIC-8 and SOT-23-6 packages, it functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• High-speed current feedback architecture providing wide bandwidth and fast transient response.
• Integrated enable control pin allows for precise power management and signal gating.
• Industrial temperature rating ensures reliable operation across extended environmental conditions.

Applications

• Video signal processing and distribution systems
• High-frequency data acquisition front ends
• Broadband communication equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., ISZ) against the required package type, as the base model number covers multiple form factors. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to ordering. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation for the Renesas or Intersil manufacturing origin.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high bandwidth and fast slew rates are critical for video or RF applications. The current feedback topology offers consistent bandwidth regardless of gain settings. Consider the available package options, such as SOIC-8 or SOT-23-6, based on board space constraints and thermal requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the EL5166 series of high-speed operational amplifiers. The series is designed for demanding analog signal processing tasks requiring minimal distortion at high frequencies. The manufacturer transitioned from Intersil to Renesas Electronics, maintaining the same functional specifications and pinouts for legacy compatibility.
