Description
The FAN4230 is a dual, low cost, high performance, voltage
feedback amplifier that consumes only 2.5mA of supply current
while providing ±130mAof output short circuit current. The
FAN4230 is designed to operate from 2.5V to 12V (±6V)
supplies. The common mode voltage range extends below the
negative rail and the output provides rail-to-rail performance.
The FAN4230 is designed on a complimentary bipolar
process and provides 358MHz of bandwidth and 217V/µs of
slew rate at a supply voltage of ±5V. The combination of low
power, rail-to-rail performance, low voltage operation, and
tiny package options make the FAN4230 well suited for use
in many general purpose high speed applications.
