CA3240, CA3240A
Data Sheet August 2001 File Number 1050.5
Dual, 4.5MHz, BiMO S Operational Amplifie r
with MOSFET Input/Bipolar Output
The CA3240Aand CA3240 are dual versions of the popular
CA3140 seriesintegratedcircuit operationalamplifiers. They
combine the advantagesof MOS and bipolar transistors on
the same monolithic chip. The gate-protected MOSFET
(PMOS) input transistorsprovide high input impedance and
a wide common-mode input voltage range (typically to 0.5V
below the negative supply rail). The bipolar output
transistorsallow a wide output voltage swing and provide a
high output current capability.
TheCA3240AandCA3240arecompatiblewiththeindustry
standard 1458 operationalamplifi e rsinsimilarpa ckages.The
offsetnullfeatureis availableonly when thesetypes are supplied
inthe14leadPDIPpackage(E1suffix).
