Product details
Overview
LT1190CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-speed video operational amplifier optimized for ±5V and single 5V supply operation, delivering 450V/µs slew rate, 50MHz gain bandwidth, ±50mA output current, and 140ns settling time to 0.1%. It serves as a cable driver in composite video signal distribution systems with 75Ω termination support.
For engineers reviewing the LT1190CN8#PBF datasheet, LT1190CN8#PBF pinout, LT1190CN8#PBF application, or LT1190CN8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include full-power bandwidth (23.9MHz), differential gain/phase error (0.1%/0.06° at 1kΩ), shutdown functionality (Pin 5), and PDIP-8 package compatibility with legacy video routing designs.
Technical Context
The LT1190CN8#PBF employs a unity-gain-stable architecture with 75° phase margin and 50MHz GBW, enabling stable closed-loop configurations without external compensation. Its high open-loop gain (>10V/mV) and low input offset voltage (3–11mV) support precision DC-coupled video signal conditioning.
It integrates an active shutdown feature (Pin 5) that reduces supply current to 1.4–2.1mA while maintaining true high-impedance output (15kΩ || feedback network). The amplifier drives 75Ω double-terminated coaxial cables with <0.1% differential gain error and supports both inverting and noninverting topologies-though MUX applications require noninverting configuration to prevent signal feedthrough during shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 50MHz - Enables stable unity-gain operation up to 50MHz; supports wideband video amplification without peaking. |
| Slew Rate | 450V/µs - Ensures distortion-free reproduction of fast video transients (e.g., sync pulses, edge transitions). |
| Settling Time | 140ns to 0.1% - Critical for accurate pixel-level fidelity in SD/HD analog video systems with tight timing budgets. |
| Differential Gain/Phase Error | 0.1% / 0.06° at RL = 1kΩ - Meets NTSC/PAL broadcast-grade color fidelity requirements for composite video signals. |
| Output Current | ±50mA - Drives 75Ω double-terminated cable (150Ω total load) with 7.5VP-P swing on ±5V supplies. |
| Shutdown Supply Current | 1.4–2.1mA - Reduces power dissipation to ~15mW during inactive states, enabling low-power video multiplexing. |
| Input Voltage Range | –2.5V to +3.5V - Supports rail-to-rail input common-mode range under ±5V supplies for maximum dynamic headroom. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - Qualified for commercial-grade video equipment including monitors, switchers, and distribution amplifiers. |
Pinout & Package
LT1190CN8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), designated N8 per Linear Technology documentation. Pin spacing follows standard 0.300-inch DIP footprint with 0.100-inch lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BAL (Pin 1 & 8) | Balance terminals | Internally connected to substrate bias node; must be tied together and bypassed to ground via 0.1µF ceramic capacitor for stability. |
| V+ (Pin 7) | Positive supply | Accepts +5V (single supply) or +5V (dual supply); requires local 0.1µF + 4.7µF bypassing for optimal settling performance. |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Accepts 0V (single supply) or –5V (dual supply); serves as reference for shutdown control and output swing limits. |
| OUT (Pin 6) | Amplifier output | Delivers ±50mA into 100Ω; supports 75Ω series termination for cable driving; high-impedance in shutdown mode. |
| SHDN (Pin 5) | Shutdown control | Active-low: pulled to V– to disable output and reduce supply current; compatible with HC CMOS logic (0V/–5V). |
| –IN (Pin 2) | Inverting input | High-impedance node; sensitive to stray capacitance-requires low-value feedback resistor (≤1kΩ) and guard traces. |
| +IN (Pin 3) | Non-inverting input | DC-coupled input for video baseband signals; input common-mode range extends to ±2.5V under ±5V supplies. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Video-optimized AC performance | 0.1% differential gain and 0.06° differential phase error at 3.58MHz (NTSC) enable broadcast-compliant composite video transmission. |
| True high-impedance shutdown | Output presents 15kΩ || feedback network impedance when disabled-prevents loading of shared video bus in MUX applications. |
| Single-supply 5V operation | Operates from +5V/0V rails with input range spanning –2.5V to +3.5V, simplifying integration into modern embedded video interfaces. |
| Full-power bandwidth | 23.9MHz at 6VP-P output enables distortion-free amplification of HD-ready analog video signals (e.g., VGA, component YPbPr). |
| Robust capacitive load drive | Stable with ≥50pF loads; isolation resistor (10Ω) recommended at inverting input to preserve phase margin when driving scope probes or unterminated cables. |
| Low-cost PDIP packaging | N8 package supports through-hole assembly and legacy PCB layouts-ideal for industrial video equipment requiring long-term manufacturability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed video amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1357CS8#PBF | Higher slew rate (800V/µs), lower supply current (5mA max), SO-8 only; no shutdown pin. | Lacks integrated shutdown-requires external analog switch for MUX use; better suited for fixed-gain, high-speed pulse applications. | Select when absolute speed > power control; verify layout compatibility with SO-8 thermal profile (θJA = 150°C/W). |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Lower input offset (0.2mV typ), higher GBW (1.5GHz), but higher quiescent current (12.5mA); no native shutdown function. | Optimized for RF/video ADC drivers-not ideal for legacy 75Ω cable driving due to different output stage architecture. | Prefer for new designs targeting ultra-low noise and GHz-range bandwidth; avoid where PDIP footprint or shutdown is mandatory. |
Compared with LT1190CN8#PBF, LT1357CS8#PBF offers superior speed but sacrifices MUX capability and through-hole compatibility, while LMH6629MA/NOPB delivers precision and bandwidth at the cost of power efficiency and legacy system integration.

FAQ
What is the maximum full-power bandwidth of the LT1190CN8#PBF?
The LT1190CN8#PBF achieves a typical full-power bandwidth of 23.9MHz at 6VP-P output under ±5V supplies. This value is derived from its 450V/µs slew rate and ensures distortion-free amplification of high-frequency video content such as horizontal sync edges and chroma subcarriers in NTSC/PAL systems. Performance remains stable across the 0°C to +70°C operating range.
Can the LT1190CN8#PBF operate from a single 5V supply?
Yes, the LT1190CN8#PBF supports single 5V supply operation with input common-mode range extending from –2.5V to +3.5V and output swing reaching ±3.7V into 1kΩ. This allows direct interfacing with 3.3V/5V logic-controlled video sources and sinks without level-shifting circuitry-provided proper bypassing (0.1µF + 4.7µF) is implemented at V+ and V– pins.
How does the shutdown feature of the LT1190CN8#PBF work?
The LT1190CN8#PBF enters shutdown when Pin 5 (SHDN) is pulled to V–, reducing supply current to 1.4–2.1mA and placing the output in a true high-impedance state (15kΩ || feedback network). Turn-off time is 400ns into 1kΩ load; turn-on time is 100ns. For reliable operation, SHDN must remain ≤ V– + 0.4V at elevated temperatures to prevent increased quiescent current.
What are the recommended bypassing practices for the LT1190CN8#PBF?
Linear Technology specifies a 0.1µF ceramic disc capacitor in parallel with a 4.7µF tantalum capacitor placed within 1/2 inch of the LT1190CN8#PBF's V+ and V– pins. This combination reduces settling time from 4.244µs (with 0.1µF only) to 163ns. Avoid sockets and minimize supply lead inductance-especially critical for achieving specified 140ns 0.1% settling performance.
Is the LT1190CN8#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LT1190 family?
Yes, the LT1190CN8#PBF shares identical pinout and footprint with LT1190CS8#PBF (SO-8) and obsolete LT1190CJ8#PBF (CERDIP). All variants use the same BAL/V+/OUT/SHDN/–IN/+IN/V–/BAL assignment. However, thermal characteristics differ: N8 has θJA = 100°C/W, while S8 is 150°C/W-requiring derating verification in high-density layouts.
