EL5166IS-T7

Overview

The EL5166IS-T7 is a single-channel high-speed current feedback operational amplifier manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It features a bandwidth of 1.4 GHz and a slew rate of 6 kV/µs, designed for demanding video and RF applications. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 5 V to 12 V with a typical quiescent current of 8.5 mA. Key electrical parameters include an input offset voltage of 500 µV, a common-mode rejection ratio of 57 dB, and an output current capability of 160 mA per channel. It is housed in an SOIC-8 surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a dedicated enable pin for power management control
• Provides high-speed signal processing with 1.4 GHz bandwidth
• Delivers high output drive capability suitable for transmission lines

Applications

• Video buffering and distribution systems
• RF signal conditioning circuits
• High-speed data acquisition front ends

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T7' indicates tape and reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official datasheets as manufacturing processes evolve. Check for end-of-life notifications from Renesas, as this component family may have limited availability or obsolescence risks. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation for quality assurance purposes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth exceeding 1 GHz is required alongside low noise performance. Compare against the EL5167 series if a smaller SC-70-5 package is preferred over the SOIC-8 form factor. Consider the EL5160 series if lower power consumption is prioritized over maximum speed. Verify that the 160 mA output current meets the load requirements of the target application circuit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the EL5166 series of current feedback amplifiers originally developed by Intersil before its acquisition by Renesas. The series is characterized by high slew rates and wide bandwidths, making it suitable for professional video and communication equipment. The EL5166IS variant specifically denotes the industrial temperature range and SOIC-8 packaging configuration.
