The EL2030 is a very fast, wide bandwidth amplifier optimized for gains between -10 and +10. Built using the Elantec monolithic Complementary Bipolar process, this amplifier uses current mode feedback to achieve more bandwidth at a given gain than a conventional voltage feedback operational amplifier. Due to its wide operating supply range (±15V) and extremely high slew rate of 2000V/μs, the EL2030 drives ±10V into 200Ω at a frequency of 30MHz, while achieving 110MHz of small signal bandwidth at AV = +2. This bandwidth is still 95MHz for a gain of +10. On ±5V supplies the amplifier maintains a 90MHz bandwidth for AV = +2. When used as a unity gain buffer, the EL2030 has a 120MHz bandwidth with the gain precision and low distortion of closed loop buffers. The EL2030 features extremely low differential gain and phase, a low noise topology that reduces noise by a factor of 2 over competing amplifiers, and settling time of 40ns to 0.25% for a 10V step. The output is short circuit protected. In addition, datasheet limits are guaranteed for ±5V and ±15V supplies. Elantec's products and facilities comply with applicable quality specifications.
