The Linear Technology LT1818 are single, wide bandwidth, high slew rate, low noise and distortion operational amplifiers with excellent DC performance. The LT1818s have been designed for wider bandwidth and slew rate, much lower input offset voltage and lower noise and distortion than devices with comparable supply current. The circuit topology is a voltage feedback amplifier with the excellent slewing characteristics of a current feedback amplifier. The output drives a 100Ω load to ±3.8V with ±5V supplies. On a single 5V supply, the output swings from 1V to 4V with a 100Ω load connected to 2.5V. The amplifier is unity-gain stable with a 20pF capacitive load without the need for a series resistor. Harmonic distortion is -85dBc up to 5MHz for a 2V P-P output at a gain of 2.
The LT1818s are manufactured on Linear Technology’s advanced low voltage complementary bipolar process.
