LME49721
High Performance, High Fidelity Rail-to-Rail Input/Output
Audio Operational Amplifier
General Description
The LME49721 is a low distortion, low noise Rail-to-Rail Input/
Output operational amplifier optimized and fully specified for
high performance, high fidelity applications. Combining ad-
vanced leading-edge process technology with state-of-the-art
circuit design, the LME49721 Rail-to-Rail Input/Output oper-
ational amplifier delivers superior signal amplification for out-
standing performance. The LME49721 combines a very high
slew rate with low THD+N to easily satisfy demanding appli-
cations. To ensure that the most challenging loads are driven
without compromise, the LME49721 has a high slew rate of
±8.5V/μs and an output current capability of ±9.7mA. Further,
dynamic range is maximized by an output stage that drives
10kΩ loads to within 10mV of either power supply voltage.
The LME49721 has a wide supply range of 2.2V to 5.5V. Over
this supply range the LME49721’s input circuitry maintains
excellent common-mode and power supply rejection, as well
as maintaining its low input bias current. The LME49721 is
unity gain stable.
