Data Sheet
Triple 600MHz Current Feedback Amplifier
with Enable
The EL5392A is a triple current
feedback amplifier with a very high
bandwidth of 600MHz. This makes this
amplifier ideal for today’s high speed video and monitor
applications.
With a supply current of just 6mA per amplifier and the ability
to run from a single supply voltage from 5V to 10V, the
EL5392A is also ideal for hand held, portable or battery
powered equipment.
The EL5392A also incorporates an enable and disable
function to reduce the supply current to 100µA typical per
amplifier. Allowing the CE pin to float or applying a low logic
level will enable the amplifier.

Applications Information
Product Description
The EL5392A is a current-feedback operational amplifier
that offers a wide -3dB bandwidth of 600MHz and a low
supply current of 6mA per amplifier. The EL5392A works
with supply voltages ranging from a single 5V to 10V and
they are also capable of swinging to within 1V of either
supply on the output. Because of their current-feedback
topology, the EL5392A does not have the normal gainbandwidth product associated with voltage-feedback
operational amplifiers. Instead, its -3dB bandwidth to remain
12
relatively constant as closed-loop gain is increased. This
combination of high bandwidth and low power, together with
aggressive pricing make the EL5392A the ideal choice for
many low-power/high-bandwidth applications such as
portable, handheld, or battery-powered equipment.
For varying bandwidth needs, consider the EL5191 with
1GHz on a 9mA supply current or the EL5193 with 300MHz
on a 4mA supply current. Versions include single, dual, and
triple amp packages with 5-pin SOT23, 16-pin QSOP, and 8pin or 16-pin SO (0.150") outlines.

Power Supply Bypassing and Printed Circuit
Board Layout
not recommended around the inverting input pin of the
amplifier.
As with any high frequency device, good printed circuit
board layout is necessary for optimum performance. Low
impedance ground plane construction is essential. Surface
mount components are recommended, but if leaded
components are used, lead lengths should be as short as
possible. The power supply pins must be well bypassed to
reduce the risk of oscillation. The combination of a 4.7µF
tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.01µF capacitor has
been shown to work well when placed at each supply pin.
Feedback Resistor Values
For good AC performance, parasitic capacitance should be
kept to a minimum, especially at the inverting input. (See the
Capacitance at the Inverting Input section) Even when
ground plane construction is used, it should be removed
from the area near the inverting input to minimize any stray
capacitance at that node. Carbon or Metal-Film resistors are
acceptable with the Metal-Film resistors giving slightly less
peaking and bandwidth because of additional series
inductance. Use of sockets, particularly for the SO (0.150")
package, should be avoided if possible. Sockets add
parasitic inductance and capacitance which will result in
additional peaking and overshoot.
Disable/Power-Down
The EL5392A amplifier can be disabled placing its output in
a high impedance state. When disabled, the amplifier supply
current is reduced to < 450µA. The EL5392A is disabled
when its CE pin is pulled up to within 1V of the positive
supply. Similarly, the amplifier is enabled by floating or
pulling its CE pin to at least 3V below the positive supply. For
±5V supply, this means that an EL5392A amplifier will be
enabled when CE is 2V or less, and disabled when CE is
above 4V. Although the logic levels are not standard TTL,
this choice of logic voltages allows the EL5392A to be
enabled by tying CE to ground, even in 5V single supply
applications. The CE pin can be driven from CMOS outputs.
Capacitance at the Inverting Input
Any manufacturer’s high-speed voltage- or current-feedback
amplifier can be affected by stray capacitance at the
inverting input. For inverting gains, this parasitic capacitance
has little effect because the inverting input is a virtual
ground, but for non-inverting gains, this capacitance (in
conjunction with the feedback and gain resistors) creates a
pole in the feedback path of the amplifier. This pole, if low
enough in frequency, has the same destabilizing effect as a
zero in the forward open-loop response. The use of largevalue feedback and gain resistors exacerbates the problem
by further lowering the pole frequency (increasing the
possibility of oscillation.)
The EL5392A has been optimized with a 375Ω feedback
resistor. With the high bandwidth of these amplifiers, these
resistor values might cause stability problems when
combined with parasitic capacitance, thus ground plane is
13
The EL5392A has been designed and specified at a gain of
+2 with RF approximately 375Ω. This value of feedback
resistor gives 300MHz of -3dB bandwidth at AV=2 with 2dB
of peaking. With AV=-2, an RF of 375Ω gives 275MHz of
bandwidth with 1dB of peaking. Since the EL5392A is a
current-feedback amplifier, it is also possible to change the
value of RF to get more bandwidth. As seen in the curve of
Frequency Response for Various RF and RG, bandwidth and
peaking can be easily modified by varying the value of the
feedback resistor.
Because the EL5392A is a current-feedback amplifier, its
gain-bandwidth product is not a constant for different closedloop gains. This feature actually allows the EL5392A to
maintain about the same -3dB bandwidth. As gain is
increased, bandwidth decreases slightly while stability
increases. Since the loop stability is improving with higher
closed-loop gains, it becomes possible to reduce the value
of RF below the specified 375Ω and still retain stability,
resulting in only a slight loss of bandwidth with increased
closed-loop gain.
Supply Voltage Range and Single-Supply
Operation
The EL5392A has been designed to operate with supply
voltages having a span of greater than 5V and less than 10V.
In practical terms, this means that the EL5392A will operate
on dual supplies ranging from ±2.5V to ±5V. With singlesupply, the EL5392A will operate from 5V to 10V.
As supply voltages continue to decrease, it becomes
necessary to provide input and output voltage ranges that
can get as close as possible to the supply voltages. The
EL5392A has an input range which extends to within 2V of
either supply. So, for example, on ±5V supplies, the
EL5392A has an input range which spans ±3V. The output
range of the EL5392A is also quite large, extending to within
1V of the supply rail. On a ±5V supply, the output is therefore
capable of swinging from -4V to +4V. Single-supply output
range is larger because of the increased negative swing due
to the external pull-down resistor to ground.
Video Performance
For good video performance, an amplifier is required to
maintain the same output impedance and the same
frequency response as DC levels are changed at the output.
This is especially difficult when driving a standard video load
of 150Ω, because of the change in output current with DC
level. Previously, good differential gain could only be
achieved by running high idle currents through the output
transistors (to reduce variations in output impedance.)
These currents were typically comparable to the entire 6mA
supply current of each EL5392A amplifier. Special circuitry
has been incorporated in the EL5392A to reduce the
EL5392A
variation of output impedance with current output. This
results in dG and dP specifications of 0.015% and 0.04°,
while driving 150Ω at a gain of 2.
Video performance has also been measured with a 500Ω
load at a gain of +1. Under these conditions, the EL5392A
has dG and dP specifications of 0.03% and 0.05°,
respectively.
modified for the EL5392A to remain in the safe operating
area. These parameters are calculated as follows:
T JMAX = T MAX + ( θ JA × n × PD MAX )
where:
TMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
Output Drive Capability
θJA = Thermal resistance of the package
In spite of its low 6mA of supply current, the EL5392A is
capable of providing a minimum of ±95mA of output current.
With a minimum of ±95mA of output drive, the EL5392A is
capable of driving 50Ω loads to both rails, making it an
excellent choice for driving isolation transformers in
telecommunications applications.
n = Number of amplifiers in the package
Driving Cables and Capacitive Loads
When used as a cable driver, double termination is always
recommended for reflection-free performance. For those
applications, the back-termination series resistor will
decouple the EL5392A from the cable and allow extensive
capacitive drive. However, other applications may have high
capacitive loads without a back-termination resistor. In these
applications, a small series resistor (usually between 5Ω and
50Ω) can be placed in series with the output to eliminate
most peaking. The gain resistor (RG) can then be chosen to
make up for any gain loss which may be created by this
additional resistor at the output. In many cases it is also
possible to simply increase the value of the feedback
resistor (RF) to reduce the peaking.
PDMAX = Maximum power dissipation of each amplifier in
the package
PDMAX for each amplifier can be calculated as follows:
V OUTMAX
PD MAX = ( 2 × V S × I SMAX ) + ( V S - V OUTMAX ) × ---------------------------R
L
where:
VS = Supply voltage
ISMAX = Maximum supply current of 1A
VOUTMAX = Maximum output voltage (required)
RL = Load resistance
Current Limiting
The EL5392A has no internal current-limiting circuitry. If the
output is shorted, it is possible to exceed the Absolute
Maximum Rating for output current or power dissipation,
potentially resulting in the destruction of the device.
Power Dissipation
With the high output drive capability of the EL5392A, it is
possible to exceed the 125°C Absolute Maximum junction
temperature under certain very high load current conditions.
Generally speaking when RL falls below about 25Ω, it is
important to calculate the maximum junction temperature
(TJMAX) for the application to determine if power supply
voltages, load conditions, or package type need to be
