EL5246CS

Overview

The EL5246CS is a dual voltage feedback operational amplifier manufactured by Elantec. It features a rail-to-rail output capability and is housed in a 14-SOIC package. The device integrates two independent circuits within a single component, designed for applications requiring high performance from a single power supply.

Feature Summary

• Dual channel configuration providing two independent amplifier circuits
• Rail-to-rail output swing capability
• Voltage feedback architecture

Applications

• Consumer electronics signal processing
• Industrial equipment control systems
• Telecommunications interface circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Elantec or its successor entities due to historical corporate changes. Confirm the 14-SOIC package type matches the required footprint. Ensure the datasheet specifies the exact electrical characteristics for the CS suffix variant before integration into final designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-channel solution with rail-to-rail output is required in a compact surface-mount package. Consider the voltage feedback topology for general-purpose amplification tasks. Verify compatibility with single-supply operation requirements typical of modern low-voltage systems.

Part Context

Elantec specialized in linear integrated circuits, particularly operational amplifiers. The EL5246 series represents part of their portfolio focused on single-supply, rail-to-rail performance. This specific model addresses the need for multi-channel amplification in space-constrained electronic assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other dual rail-to-rail op-amps in 14-SOIC packages. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter overlaps such as bandwidth and slew rate before substituting.
