DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
1497 dual current feedback amplifier features low
power, high output drive, excellent video characteristics
and outstanding distortion performance. From a low 7mA
maximum supply current per amplifier, the LT1497 drives
±100mA
with only 1.9V of headroom. Twisted pairs can be
driven differentially with – 70dBc distortion up to 1MHz for
±40mA
peak signals.
The LT1497 is available in a low thermal resistance 16-pin
SO package for operation with supplies up to
±15V.
For
±5V
operation the device is also available in a low thermal
resistance SO-8 package. The device has thermal and
current limit circuits that protect against fault conditions.
The LT1497 is manufactured on Linear Technology’s
complementary bipolar process. The device has charac-
teristics that bridge the performance between the LT1229
and LT1207 dual current feedback amplifiers. The LT1229
has 30mA output drive, 100MHz bandwidth and 12mA
supply current. The LT1207 has 250mA output drive,
60MHz bandwidth and 40mA supply current.

The
q
denotes specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range.
Note 1:
Applies to short circuits to ground only. A short circuit between the
output and either supply may damage the part when operated on supplies
greater than
±10V
Note 2:
The LT1497 is designed, characterized and expected to operate
over the temperature range of – 40°C to 85°C, but is not tested at – 40°C
and 85°C. Guaranteed industrial grade parts are available, consult factory.
Note 3:
Thermal resistance varies depending upon the amount of PC board
metal attached to the device.
θ
JA
is specified for a 2500mm
2
test board
covered with 2oz copper on both sides.
Note 4:
Slew rate is measured between
±5V
on a
±10V
output signal while
operating on
±15V
supplies with R
F
= 453Ω, R
G
= 49.9Ω and R
L
= 150Ω.
On
±5V
supplies slew rate is measured between
±1V
on a
±3V
output
signal. The slew rate is much higher when the input is overdriven and
when the amplifier is operated inverting. See the Applications Information
section.
Note 5:
NTSC composite video with an amplifier output level of 2V peak.
