EL5244CS

Overview

The EL5244CS is a quad voltage-feedback amplifier from the Elantec EL5144 series, designed for single-supply operation. It features rail-to-rail input and output capabilities with a bandwidth of 100 MHz. The device is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package and contains four independent operational amplifier circuits.

Feature Summary

• Voltage-feedback architecture optimized for high-speed signal processing
• Rail-to-rail input and output functionality for maximum dynamic range
• Single-supply operation capability for simplified power systems

Applications

• Video amplification circuits
• Photodiode interface applications
• Commercial integrated circuit designs

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin carefully, as the EL5144 series was originally developed by Intersil Corporation before its acquisition by Renesas Electronics. Ensure the specific suffix 'CS' matches the required package type and temperature rating for your design. Cross-reference datasheets to confirm pinout compatibility if substituting from other vendors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad amplifier configuration is required alongside high bandwidth and rail-to-rail performance. It is suitable for applications demanding single-supply operation without the need for negative voltage rails. Consider the 8-SOIC package constraints regarding thermal dissipation and board space availability during the layout phase.

Part Context

This part belongs to the EL5144 family of high-speed amplifiers. The series includes variants such as the dual-channel EL5244 and single-channel EL5144. These devices are engineered to provide consistent performance characteristics across the family while offering different channel counts to suit various integration needs.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents within the Renesas portfolio or compatible parts from other manufacturers that specify 100MHz bandwidth and rail-to-rail I/O in an 8-SOIC package.
