LT1252CS8#PBF

Video Amps And Modules Overview

The LT1252CS8#PBF is a low-cost current feedback video amplifier housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package. It operates on dual supplies from ±2V to ±14V or single supplies from 4V to 28V. Key electrical characteristics include a 100MHz bandwidth at unity gain, a 125V/μs input slew rate, and an output slew rate of 250V/μs. The device draws 18mA supply current at ±5V, dissipating 85mW. It features low differential gain error (0.01%) and phase error (0.09°) when driving 150Ω loads, making it suitable for high-fidelity video signal processing.

Video Amps And Modules Feature Summary

• Current feedback architecture providing wide bandwidth and high slew rates for fast transient response
• Outstanding linearity with minimal differential gain and phase errors for composite video applications
• Capable of driving low impedance loads such as 75Ω cables and filters directly
• Wide supply voltage range supporting both dual and single supply configurations

Video Amps And Modules Applications

• RGB cable drivers for PC and workstation displays
• Composite video cable drivers
• Gain blocks in intermediate frequency (IF) stages

Video Amps And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the S8 package marking '1252' matches the datasheet specifications. Confirm the #PBF suffix indicates lead-free compliance. Ensure the operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C aligns with your system requirements. Check that the absolute maximum ratings, particularly junction temperature and soldering limits, are respected during assembly and operation.

Video Amps And Modules Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel, low-cost current feedback amplifier is required for video signal conditioning. It is appropriate for designs needing high bandwidth without the complexity of dual or quad amplifiers like the LT1253/LT1254. Consider the LT1227 if shutdown functionality or higher performance metrics are necessary instead.

Video Amps And Modules Part Context

This part is a single-channel variant within Analog Devices' LT125x family of video amplifiers. It shares core performance characteristics with the dual LT1253 and quad LT1254 devices but offers a cost-effective solution for single-channel applications. The S8 package provides a surface-mount option compared to the through-hole N8 DIP package.

Video Amps And Modules Replacement Considerations

For equivalent single-channel performance, consider the LT1252CN8 (DIP package). For dual-channel versions, use the LT1253. For quad-channel versions, use the LT1254. If shutdown capability is required, the LT1227 is the designated upgrade path.
