Product details
Overview
AD812ARZ-REEL from Analog Devices is a dual, current-feedback, low-power video operational amplifier in an 8-lead SOIC package. It delivers 50 mA output current per channel, 145 MHz unity-gain bandwidth (±15 V), 0.02% differential gain error, and 0.028° differential phase error into 150 Ω - optimized for professional video line driving in cameras and switchers.
For engineers reviewing the AD812ARZ-REEL datasheet, AD812ARZ-REEL pinout, AD812ARZ-REEL application, or AD812ARZ-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include single-supply operation down to +3 V, rail-to-rail output swing (1 V from rails), matched gain flatness (0.1 dB to 40 MHz), and crosstalk < –75 dB at 5 MHz - all critical for multi-channel HD video signal integrity.
Technical Context
The AD812ARZ-REEL implements a current-feedback architecture with separate high-impedance noninverting (+IN) and low-impedance inverting (–IN) inputs (65 Ω typical), enabling wide bandwidth independent of closed-loop gain when using appropriate feedback resistors. Its transimpedance open-loop response supports stable operation at gains ≥ +1 with metal-film RF/RG networks.
Each amplifier features matched dynamic performance: 0.1 dB gain flatness to 40 MHz (±15 V), ≤ 0.1 dB gain flatness match between channels at 40 MHz, and differential gain/phase errors specified under NTSC conditions with RL = 150 Ω - confirming suitability for broadcast-grade analog video routing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual video amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6702MA/NOPB | Higher 1.7 GHz bandwidth but higher 11.5 mA quiescent current per channel; no guaranteed differential gain/phase specs for video. | Better suited for RF/IF signal chains than NTSC/PAL video; lacks video-specific characterization at 150 Ω load. | Select LMH6702MA/NOPB only when >500 MHz bandwidth is required and video compliance testing is not mandated. |
| THS3202D | Lower 400 MHz bandwidth but lower 7.5 mA quiescent current; differential gain error specified at 0.05% (vs. AD812ARZ-REEL's 0.02%). | Valid for SD/HD video but not broadcast-grade; optimized for lower power rather than ultimate color fidelity. | Choose THS3202D for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where 0.05% differential gain meets system requirements. |
Compared with LMH6702MA/NOPB and THS3202D, the AD812ARZ-REEL uniquely balances broadcast-grade video specifications (0.02% DG, 0.028° DP), dual-channel SOIC integration, and low 4.0 mA/channel quiescent current - making it the only option qualified for professional camera and switcher designs requiring NTSC/PAL compliance.

FAQ
What supply voltage range does the AD812ARZ-REEL support?
The AD812ARZ-REEL operates from a single +2.4 V to +36 V supply or dual ±1.2 V to ±18 V supplies. At +3 V single supply, it delivers 40 MHz 0.1 dB bandwidth and 1.0–1.3 Vp-p output swing into 150 Ω - enabling battery-powered portable video gear. Full specification compliance requires operation within the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
How does the AD812ARZ-REEL achieve low differential gain and phase error?
The AD812ARZ-REEL achieves 0.02% differential gain error and 0.028° differential phase error through precision current-feedback architecture, matched transistor pairs, and optimized biasing for 150 Ω video loads. These parameters are measured under NTSC conditions with G = +2 and RL = 150 Ω, confirming suitability for broadcast video where color fidelity is critical - unlike general-purpose op amps lacking video-specific characterization.
Can the AD812ARZ-REEL drive 75 Ω coaxial cables directly?
Yes - the AD812ARZ-REEL is explicitly optimized for driving back-terminated 75 Ω video cables (equivalent to 150 Ω differential load). With 50 mA output current per channel and rail-to-rail swing (1 V from rails), it maintains 0.1 dB gain flatness to 40 MHz and meets NTSC differential gain/phase specs without external buffers. Figure 46 in the AD812ARZ-REEL datasheet shows the recommended G = +2 line driver configuration using RF = RG = 715 Ω.
What is the maximum crosstalk between channels in the AD812ARZ-REEL?
The AD812ARZ-REEL guarantees –75 dB dynamic crosstalk at 5 MHz between channels, measured from OUT2 to –IN1. This is achieved through internal layout isolation and requires proper PCB design: separate ground returns, non-overlapping signal traces, and localized 0.1 µF + 1 µF bypassing at both V+ and V– pins. Crosstalk degrades above 10 MHz, so high-frequency routing must follow the guidelines in the AD812ARZ-REEL application notes.
Is the AD812ARZ-REEL suitable for single-supply video applications?
Yes - the AD812ARZ-REEL supports true single-supply operation from +3 V to +36 V with input common-mode range extending to 1.0–2.0 V at +3 V and 1.0–4.0 V at +5 V. Its rail-to-rail output swing (1 V from rails) allows direct interfacing with 1 Vp-p video signals without level shifters. The datasheet provides verified single-supply schematics (e.g., Figure 46) and specifies differential gain/phase performance under +3 V and +5 V conditions.
