Dual Very Low Noise Amplifier
Features
The EL2227 is a dual, low-noise amplifier, ideally suited to
line receiving applications in ADSL and HDSLII designs.
With low noise specification of just 1.9nV/√Hz and
1.2pA/√Hz, the EL2227 is perfect for the detection of very
low amplitude signals.
• Voltage noise of only 1.9nV/√Hz
The EL2227 features a -3dB bandwidth of 115MHz and is
gain-of-2 stable. The EL2227 also affords minimal power
dissipation with a supply current of just 4.8mA per amplifier.
The amplifier can be powered from supplies ranging from
±2.5V to ±12V.
• Current noise of only 1.2pA/√Hz
• Bandwidth (-3dB) of 115MHz @AV = +2
• Gain-of-2 stable
• Just 4.8mA per amplifier
• 8-pin MSOP package
• ±2.5V to ±12V operation
• Pb-Free available (RoHS compliant)
The EL2227 is available in a space-saving 8-pin MSOP
package as well as the industry-standard 8-pin SO. It can
operate over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free products employ special Pb-free material sets;
molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate
termination finish, which are RoHS compliant and compatible with
both SnPb and Pb-free soldering operations. Intersil Pb-free products
are MSL classified at Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that meet or
exceed the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J STD-020.

Product Description
+12V
The EL2227 is a dual voltage feedback operational amplifier
designed especially for DMT ADSL and other applications
requiring very low voltage and current noise. It also features
low distortion while drawing moderately low supply current
and is built on Elantec's proprietary high-speed
complementary bipolar process. The EL2227 use a classical
voltage-feedback topology which allows them to be used in a
variety of applications where current-feedback amplifiers are
not appropriate because of restrictions placed upon the
feedback element used with the amplifier. The conventional
topology of the EL2227 allows, for example, a capacitor to
be placed in the feedback path, making it an excellent choice
for applications such as active filters, sample-and-holds, or
integrators.

ADSL CPE Applications
Power Dissipation
The low noise EL2227 amplifier is specifically designed for
the dual differential receiver amplifier function with ADSL
transceiver hybrids as well as other low-noise amplifier
applications. A typical ADSL CPE line interface circuit is
shown in Figure 1. The EL2227 is used in receiving DMT
down stream signal. With careful transceiver hybrid design
and the EL2227 1.9nV/√Hz voltage noise and 1.2pA/√Hz
current noise performance, -140dBm/Hz system background
noise performance can be easily achieved.
With the wide power supply range and large output drive
capability of the EL2227, it is possible to exceed the 150°C
maximum junction temperatures under certain load and
power-supply conditions. It is therefore important to
calculate the maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) for all
applications to determine if power supply voltages, load
conditions, or package type need to be modified for the
EL2227 to remain in the safe operating area. These
parameters are related as follows:

To serve as a guide for the user, we can calculate maximum
allowable supply voltages for the example of the video
cable-driver below since we know that TJMAX = 150°C,
TMAX = 75°C, ISMAX = 9.5mA, and the package θJAs are
shown in Table 1. If we assume (for this example) that we

are driving a back-terminated video cable, then the
maximum average value (over duty-cycle) of VOUTMAX is
1.4V, and RL = 150Ω, giving the results seen in Table 1.

Single-Supply Operation
The EL2227 have been designed to have a wide input and
output voltage range. This design also makes the EL2227 an
excellent choice for single-supply operation. Using a single
positive supply, the lower input voltage range is within
200mV of ground (RL = 500Ω), and the lower output voltage
range is within 875mV of ground. Upper input voltage range
reaches 3.6V, and output voltage range reaches 3.8V with a
5V supply and RL = 500Ω. This results in a 2.625V output
swing on a single 5V supply. This wide output voltage range
also allows single-supply operation with a supply voltage as
high as 28V.
Printed-Circuit Layout
The EL2227 are well behaved, and easy to apply in most
applications. However, a few simple techniques will help
assure rapid, high quality results. As with any high-frequency
device, good PCB layout is necessary for optimum
performance. Ground-plane construction is highly
recommended, as is good power supply bypassing. A 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor is recommended for bypassing both
supplies. Lead lengths should be as short as possible, and
bypass capacitors should be as close to the device pins as
possible. For good AC performance, parasitic capacitances
should be kept to a minimum at both inputs and at the
output. Resistor values should be kept under 5kΩ because
of the RC time constants associated with the parasitic
capacitance. Metal-film and carbon resistors are both
acceptable, use of wire-wound resistors is not
recommended because of their parasitic inductance.
Similarly, capacitors should be low-inductance for best
performance.
Gain-Bandwidth Product and the -3dB Bandwidth
The EL2227 have a gain-bandwidth product of 137MHz
while using only 5mA of supply current per amplifier. For
gains greater than 2, their closed-loop -3dB bandwidth is
approximately equal to the gain-bandwidth product divided
by the noise gain of the circuit. For gains less than 2, higherorder poles in the amplifiers' transfer function contribute to
even higher closed loop bandwidths. For example, the
EL2227 have a -3dB bandwidth of 115MHz at a gain of +2,
dropping to 28MHz at a gain of +5. It is important to note that
the EL2227 have been designed so that this “extra”
bandwidth in low-gain applications does not come at the
expense of stability. As seen in the typical performance
curves, the EL2227 in a gain of +2 only exhibit 0.5dB of
peaking with a 1000Ω load.
Output Drive Capability
The EL2227 have been designed to drive low impedance
loads. They can easily drive 6VPP into a 500Ω load. This
high output drive capability makes the EL2227 an ideal
choice for RF, IF and video applications.
