RESTORATION
● SAMPLE/HOLD AMPLIFIER
optimized for low input bias current. The sampling
comparator has two identical high-impedance inputs
and a current source output optimized for low output
bias current and offset voltage; it can be controlled by
a TTL-compatible switching stage within a few
nanoseconds. The transconductance of the OTA and
sampling comparator can be adjusted by an external
resistor, allowing bandwidth, quiescent current, and
gain tradeoffs to be optimized.
The SHC615 is available in SO-14 surface mount and
14-pin plastic DIPs, and is specified over the extended temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

DESCRIPTION
The SHC615 is a complete subsystem for very fast
and precise DC restoration, offset clamping, and low
frequency hum suppression of wideband amplifiers or
buffers. Designed to stabilize the performance of
video signals, it can also be used as a sample/hold
amplifier, high-speed integrator, or peak detector for
nanosecond pulses. A wideband Operational
Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) with a high-impedance cascode current source output and fast sampling comparator set a new standard for high-speed
applications. Both can be used as stand-alone circuits
or combined to form a more complex signal processing stage. The self-biased, bipolar OTA can be viewed
as an ideal voltage-controlled current source and is
