The EL2070C is a wide bandwidth, fast settling monolithic amplifier
incorporating a disable/enable feature. Built using an advanced complementary bipolar process, this amplifier uses current-mode feedback
to achieve more bandwidth at a given gain than conventional operational amplifiers. Designed for closed-loop gains of ±1 to ±8, the
EL2070C has a 200MHz -3dB bandwidth (AV = +2), and 12ns settling
to 0.05% while consuming only 15mA of supply current. Furthermore,
the fast disable/enable times of 200ns/100ns allow rapid analog
multiplexing.
The EL2070C is an obvious high-performance solution for video distribution and line-driving applications, especially when its disable
feature can be used for fast analog multiplexing. Furthermore, the low
15mA supply current, and the very low 5mA of supply current when
disabled suggest use in systems where power is critical. With differential gain/phase of 0.02%/0.01°, guaranteed video specifications, and a
minimum 50mA output drive, performance in these areas is assured.
The EL2070C's settling to 0.05% in 12ns, low distortion, and ability to
drive capacitive loads make it an ideal flash A/D driver. The wide
200MHz bandwidth and extremely linear phase allow unmatched signal fidelity. D/A systems can also benefit from the EL2070C,
especially if linearity and drive levels are important.

Theory of Operation
The EL2070C has a unity gain buffer from the noninverting input to the inverting input. The error signal of
the EL2070C is a current flowing into (or out of) the
inverting input. A very small change in current flowing
through the inverting input will cause a large change in
the output voltage. This current amplification is called
the transimpedance (ROL) of the EL2070C
[V
=(ROL) * (-IIN)]. Since ROL is very large, the cur-
OUT
rent flowing into the inverting input in the steady-state
(non-slewing) condition is very small.
Therefore we can still use op-amp assumptions as a firstorder approximation for circuit analysis, namely that:
1.The voltage across the inputs is approximately 0V.
2.The current into the inputs is approximately 0mA.
Resistor Value Selection and Optimization
The value of the feedback resistor (and an internal
capacitor) sets the AC dynamics of the EL2070C. The
nominal value for the feedback resistor is 250Ω, which
is the value used for production testing. This value guarantees stability. For a given closed-loop gain the
bandwidth may be increased by decreasing the feedback
resistor and, conversely, the bandwidth may be
decreased by increasing the feedback resistor.
Reducing the feedback resistor too much will result in
overshoot and ringing and eventually oscillations.
Increasing the feedback resistor results in a lower -3dB
frequency. Attenuation at high frequency is limited by a
zero in the closed-loop transfer function which results
from stray capacitance between the inverting input and
ground. Consequently, it is very important to keep stray
capacitance to a minimum at the inverting input.
Differential Gain/Phase
An industry-standard method of measuring the distortion of a video component is to measure the amount of
differential gain and phase error it introduces. To measure these, a 40 IREPP reference signal is applied to the
device with 0V DC offset (0 IRE) at 3.58MHz for
NTSC, 4.43MHz for PAL, and 30MHz for HDTV. A
second measurement is then made with a 0.714V DC
offset (100 IRE). Differential 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. Typically, the maximum positive and negative deviations are summed to
give peak values.
In general, a back terminated cable (75Ω in series at the
drive end and 75Ω to ground at the receiving end) is pre-
ferred since the impedance match at both ends will
absorb any reflections. However, when double-termination is used, the received signal is reduced by half;
therefore a gain of 2 configuration is typically used to
compensate for the attenuation. In a gain of 2 configuration, with output swing of 2VPP, with each back-
terminated load at 150Ω. The EL2070C is capable of
driving up to 4 back-terminated loads with excellent
video performance. Please refer to the typical curves for
more information on video performance with respect to
frequency, gain, and loading.
Capacitive Feedback
The EL2070C relies on its feedback resistor for proper
compensation. A reduction of the impedance of the feedback element results in less stability, eventually
resulting in oscillation. Therefore, circuit implementations which have capacitive feedback should not be used
because of the capacitor's impedance reduction with frequency. Similarly, oscillations can occur when using the
technique of placing a capacitor in parallel with the feedback resistor to compensate for shunt capacitances from
the inverting input to ground.
Offset Adjustment Pin
Output offset voltage of the EL2070C can be nulled by
tying a 10k potentiometer between +VS and -VS with the
slider attached to pin 1. A full-range variation of the
voltage at pin 1 to ±5V results in an offset voltage
adjustment of at least ±10mV. For best settling performance pin 1 should be bypassed to ground with a
ceramic capacitor located near to the package, even if
the offset voltage adjustment feature is not being used.

Printed Circuit Layout
As with any high frequency device, good PCB layout is
necessary for optimum performance. Ground plane construction is a requirement, as is good power-supply and
Offset Adjust bypassing close to the package. The
inverting input is sensitive to stray capacitance, therefore connections at the inverting input should be
minimal, close to the package, and constructed with as
little coupling to the ground plane as possible.
Capacitance at the output node will reduce stability,
eventually resulting in peaking, and finally oscillation if
the capacitance is large enough. The design of the
EL2070C allows a larger capacitive load than comparable products, yet there are occasions when a series
resistor before the capacitance may be needed. Please
refer to the graphs to determine the proper resistor value
needed.
Disable/Enable Operation
The EL2070C has a disable/enable control input at pin 8.
The device is enabled and operates normally when pin 8
is left open or tied to pin 7. When more than 350µA is
pulled from pin 8, the EL2070C is disabled. The output
becomes a high impedance, the inverting input is no
longer driven to the positive input voltage, and the supply current is reduced by 2/3. To make it easy to use this
feature, there is an internal resistor to limit the current to
a safe level (0.8mA) if pin 8 is grounded.
To draw current out of pin 8 an open-collector TTL output, a 5V CMOS output, or an NPN transistor can be
used.
