EL5256IY-T7

Overview

The EL5256IY-T7 is a dual-channel, voltage feedback operational amplifier from the EL5256/EL5257 family. It features a 600MHz -3dB bandwidth and a typical slew rate of 700V/µs. The device operates on single supplies from 5V to 12V or dual supplies from ±2.5V to ±5V, consuming only 6mA per channel. Key electrical characteristics include an input offset voltage under 1mV, open-loop gain of 92dB, and a peak output current capability of 140mA. It includes a fast disable feature for power reduction.

Feature Summary

• High-speed performance with 600MHz bandwidth and 700V/µs slew rate
• Low power consumption at 6mA supply current per amplifier
• Precision DC accuracy with less than 1mV input offset voltage
• Integrated disable pin for rapid power-down control

Applications

• High-speed video and monitor signal processing
• Precision measurement instrumentation
• Imaging systems requiring high linearity
• Communications devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T7' indicates tape and reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status as Pb-free versions exist within this product family. Check manufacturer lifecycle status, as older Intersil/Renesas parts may be subject to obsolescence notices. Ensure ESD handling procedures are followed during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications demanding wide bandwidth combined with low power operation. The dual configuration in MSOP packaging suits space-constrained designs. Verify that the required load conditions do not exceed the 140mA output drive limit. Consider the disable feature if system-level power management is required.

Part Context

This part belongs to the EL5156/EL5157/EL5256/EL5257 series of 600MHz amplifiers originally developed by Intersil Americas Inc. The EL5256 specifically denotes the dual-channel variant with a disable function. Renesas Electronics Corporation acquired Intersil, continuing support for these legacy high-speed analog components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 600MHz bandwidth, dual-channel topology, and MSOP-10 package. Verify that substitute parts offer comparable slew rates and supply voltage ranges. Ensure any alternative maintains the disable functionality if critical to the design.
