EL5220CY

Overview

The EL5220CY is a dual operational amplifier from the Renesas/Intersil EL5220 series. It features a voltage-feedback architecture with rail-to-rail input and output capabilities. Key electrical parameters include a gain-bandwidth product of 8 MHz, a slew rate of 10 V/us, and an input offset voltage of 10 mV. The device operates on supply voltages ranging from 2.25 V to 8.25 V (single) or 4.5 V to 16.5 V (dual), with a typical operating current of 1.5 mA per channel. It is housed in an MSOP-8 package and supports an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Rail-to-rail input and output operation for maximum dynamic range
• Voltage-feedback architecture ensuring stability and performance
• Extended industrial temperature range capability

Applications

• Signal conditioning in battery-powered systems
• Video buffering and amplification
• Data acquisition front-ends

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., CYZ-T7) against the required package and tape/reel configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status as manufacturing sources may vary between Intersil and Renesas branding. Check for obsolescence notices as this component family has been subject to lifecycle changes. Ensure the selected variant matches the required moisture sensitivity level for surface-mount assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when rail-to-rail I/O is required within low-voltage single-supply constraints. The 8 MHz bandwidth suits moderate-speed applications like sensor interfaces. Compare against higher-speed alternatives if slew rate or bandwidth exceeds 10 V/us or 8 MHz. Verify that the 10 mV offset voltage meets system accuracy requirements without external trimming.

Part Context

The EL5220CY belongs to the EL5220 family of low-power, dual operational amplifiers originally developed by Intersil and later integrated into Renesas Electronics' portfolio. These devices are designed for general-purpose analog signal processing where low voltage operation and full output swing are critical. The family includes variants with different packaging options such as MSOP and TSSOP to accommodate various PCB layout densities.
