SA521 1Transimpedance amplifier (180MHz)
DESCRIPTION
The SA521 1 is a 28kΩ transimpedance, wide-band, low noise
amplifier with differential outputs, particularly suitable for signal
recovery in fiber optic receivers. The part is ideally suited for many
other RF applications as a general purpose gain block.
FEA TURES
•Extremely low noise:
1.8pA Hz
•Single 5V supply
•Large bandwidth: 180MHz
•Differential outputs
•Low input/output impedances
•High power supply rejection ratio
•28kΩ differential transresistance
APPLICATIONS
•Fiber optic receivers, analog and digital
•Current-to-voltage converters
•Wide-band gain block
