EL2245, EL2445
Dual/Quad Low-Power 100MHz Gain-of-2
Stable Op Amp
The EL2245 and EL2445 are dual and
quad versions of the popular EL2045.
They are high speed, low power, low
cost monolithic operational amplifiers built on Elantec's
proprietary complementar y bipolar process. The EL2245
and EL2445 are gain-of-2 stable and f eature a 275V/µs slew
rate and 100MHz bandwidth at gain-of-2 while requiring only
5.2mA of supply current per ampli fi e r.
The power supply operating range of the EL2245 and
EL2445 is from ±18V down to as little as ±2V. For single-
supply operation, the EL2245 and EL2445 operate from 36V
down to as little as 2.5V. The excellent power supply
operating range of the EL2245 and EL2445 ma kes them an
obvious choice for applications on a single +5V or +3V
supply.
The EL2245 and EL2445 also feature an extremely wide
output voltage swing of ±13.6V with VS = ±15V and
RL=1k. At ±5V, output voltage swing is a wide ±3.8V with
RL = 500 and ±3.2V with RL = 150. Further more, for
single-supply operation at +5V, output voltage swing is an
excellent 0.3V to 3.8V with RL = 500.
At a gain of +2, the EL2245 and EL2445 have a -3dB
bandwidth of 100MHz with a phase margin of 50°. Because
of their conventional voltage-feedback topology, the EL2245
and EL2445 allow the use of reactive or non-linear elements
in their feedback network. This versatility combined with low
cost and 75mA of output-current drive mak e the EL2245 and
EL2445 an ideal choice for price-sensitive applications
requiring low pow er and high speed.

Applications Information
Product Description
The EL2245 and EL2445 are dual and quad low-power
wideband monolithic operational amplifiers built on Elantec's
proprietary high-speed complementary bipolar process. The
EL2245 and EL2445 use a classical voltage-feedbac k
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 EL2245 and EL2445 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. Similarly, because of the
ability to use diodes in the feedback network, the EL2245
and EL2445 are an excellent choice for applications such as
f ast log amplifiers.
Power Dissipation
With the wide power supply range and large output drive
capability of the EL2245 and EL2445, it is possible to e xceed
the 150°C maximum junction temperatures under certain
load and power-supply conditions. It is theref ore 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
EL2245 and EL2445 to remain in the safe operating area.
These parameters are related as follows:
where:
PDMAXTOTAL is the sum of the maximum power dissipation
of each amplifier in the package (PDMAX). PDmax for each
amplifier can be calculated as follows:
where:
TMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
θJA = Thermal resistance of the package
PDMAX = Maximum power dissipation of each amplifier
VS = Supply voltage
ISMAX = Maximum supply current of each amplifier
VOUTMAX = Maximum output voltage swing of the
application
RL = Load resistance
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 =
85°C, ISMAX = 7.6mA per amplifier, and the package θJAs
are shown in Table 1. If we assume (f or 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 = 150, giving the results seen in Table 1.
Single-Supply Operation
The EL2245 and EL2445 have been designed to have a
wide input and output voltage range. This design also makes
the EL2245 and EL2445 an excellent choice for single-
supply operation. Using a single positive supply, the lower
input voltage range is within 100mV of ground (RL = 500),
and the lower output voltage range is within 300mV of
ground. Upper input voltage range reaches 4.2V, and output
voltage range reaches 3.8V with a 5V supply and
RL= 500. This results in a 3.5V output swing on a single
5V supply. This wide output voltage range also allows single-
supply operation with a supply voltage as high as 36V or as
low as 2.5V. On a single 2.5V supply, the EL2245 and
EL2445 still have 1V of output swing.
Gain-Bandwidth Product and the -3dB Bandwidth
The EL2245 and EL2445 have a bandwidth at gain-of-2 of
100MHz while using only 5.2mA of supply current per
amplifier. For gains greater than 4, 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 4, higher-order poles in the amplifiers' transfer

function contri bute to even higher closed loop bandwidths.
For example, the EL2245 and EL2445 have a -3dB
bandwidth of 100MHz at a gain of +2, dropping to 20MHz at
a gain of +5. It is important to note tha t the EL22 45 and
EL2445 hav e 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
EL2245 and EL2445 in a gain of +2 only exhibit 1.0dB of
peaking with a 1k load.
Video Performance
An industry-standard method of measuring the video
distortion of components such as the EL2245/ EL2445 is to
measure the amount of differential gain (dG) and differential
phase (dP) that they introduce. To make these
measurements, a 0.286VPP (40 IRE) signal is applied to the
de vice with 0V DC offset (0 IRE) at either 3.58MHz f or NTSC
or 4.43MHz f or PAL. A second measurement is then made at
0.714V DC offset (100 IRE). Diff erential gain is a measure of
the change in amplitude of the sine wave, and is measured
in percent. Differential phase is a measure of the change in
phase, and is measured in degrees.
For signal transmission and distribution, a back-termin ated
cable (75 in series at the drive end, and 75 to ground at
the receiving end) is preferred since the impedance match at
both ends will absorb any reflections. Howe v er, when double
termination is used, the received signal is halved; therefore a
gain of 2 configuration is typically used to compensate for
the attenuation.
The EL2245 and EL2445 have been designed as an
economical solution for applications requiring low video
distortion. They have been thoroughly characterized for
video performance in the topology described above, and the
results have been included as typical dG and dP
specifications and as typical performa nce curves. In a gain
of +2, driving 150, with standard video test levels at the
input, the EL2245 and EL2445 exhibit dG and dP of only
0.02% and 0.07° at NTSC and PAL. Because dG and dP can
vary with different DC offsets, the video performance of the
EL2245 and EL2445 has been characterized over the entire
DC offset range from -0.714V to +0.714V. For more
infor m ation, refer to the curves of dG and dP vs DC Input
Offset.
Output Drive Capability
The EL2245 and EL2445 have been designed to drive low
impedance loads. They can easily drive 6VPP into a 150
load. This high output drive capability makes the EL2245
and EL2445 an ideal choice for RF, IF and video
applications. Furthermore, the current drive of the EL2245
and EL2445 remains a minimum of 35mA at low
temperatures.
Printed-Circuit Layout
The EL2245 and EL2445 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 5k because of the RC time constant s
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.
The EL2245 and EL2445 Macromodel
This macromodel has been developed to assist the user in
simulating the EL2245 and EL2445 with surrounding
circuitr y. It has been developed for the PSPICE simulator
(copywritten b y the Microsim Corporation), and may need to
be rearranged for other simulators. It approxi mates DC, AC,
and transient response for resistive lo ads, but does not
accurately model capacitive loading. This model is slightly
more complicated than the models used for low-frequency
op-amps, but it is much more accurate for AC analysis.
The model does not simulate these characteristics
