EL2125C
Ultra-Low Noise, Low Power, Wideband Amplifier
Features
General Description
• Voltage noise of only 0.83nV/√Hz
• Current noise of only 2.4pA/√Hz
• 200µV offset voltage
The EL2125C is an ultra-low noise, wideband amplifier that runs on
half the supply current of competitive parts. It is intended for use in
systems such as ultrasound imaging where a very small signal needs to
be amplified by a large amount without adding significant noise. Its
low power dissipation enables it to be packaged in the tiny SOT23
package, which further helps systems where many input channels cre-
ate both space and power dissipation problems.
• 175MHz -3dB BW for A =10
V
• Low supply current - 10mA
• SOT23 package available
•
2.5V to 15V operation
The EL2125C is stable for gains of 10 and greater and uses traditional
voltage feedback. This allows the use of reactive elements in the feed-
back loop, a common requirement for many filter topologies. It
operates from 2.5V to 15V supplies and is available in the 5-pin
SOT23 and 8-pin SO packages.
Applications
• Ultrasound input amplifiers
• Wideband instrumentation
• Communication equipment
• AGC & PLL active filters
• Wideband sensors
The EL2125C is fabricated in Elantec’s proprietary complementary
bipolar process, and is specified for operation from -45°C to +85°C.
