Key Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Type** | Dual, High-Speed, Voltage Feedback Op-Amp | | **Input Stage** | FET (Field-Effect Transistor) | | **Bandwidth (-3 dB)** | 1050 MHz (1.05 GHz) | | **Slew Rate** | 870 V/μs | | **Input Capacitance** | 1.3 pF (Low) | | **Supply Voltage Range** | 5V to 10V (Total) | | **Supply Current** | 19 mA per amplifier | | **Output Current** | 40 mA | | **Package Type** | LFCSP-16 (Lead Frame Chip Scale Package) | --- ### 2. Electronic Characteristics & Architecture The ADA4817-2 is designed for high-speed signal processing where low input bias current and high input impedance are required. #### A. FET Input Stage Because it uses a FET input, it has extremely low **Input Bias Current** (typically 2 pA). This makes it ideal for buffering high-impedance sources without loading the signal or introducing offset errors. #### B. High Speed & Wide Bandwidth With a **1.05 GHz bandwidth**, it can handle high-frequency signals with minimal distortion. The **870 V/μs slew rate** ensures the output can track rapid changes in the input signal, which is critical for pulse-based applications. #### C. Low Noise Despite its high speed, it maintains low noise characteristics: * **Voltage Noise:** 4 nV/√Hz @ 100 kHz. * **Current Noise:** 2.5 fA/√Hz @ 100 kHz. --- ### 3. Pinout & Package Details (LFCSP-16) The "ACPZ-R7" suffix indicates the packaging and reel size. The **LFCSP-16** is a 3x3 mm leadless package that provides excellent thermal dissipation and low parasitic inductance, which is vital for GHz-range stability. --- ### 4.
