Product details
Overview
LT1223CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 100MHz current feedback amplifier optimized for high-speed video, cable driving, and data acquisition. It delivers 1000V/µs slew rate, ±50mA output drive, and 75ns settling time to 0.1%, operating from ±5V to ±15V supplies with 1mV input offset voltage. It is used in double-terminated 75Ω video cable drivers and 12-bit ADC front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LT1223CN8#PBF datasheet, LT1223CN8#PBF pinout, LT1223CN8#PBF application, or LT1223CN8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include bandwidth stability across gain settings, shutdown functionality (Pin 8), thermal settling behavior in noninverting configurations, and RF-resistor–dependent compensation-critical for video instrumentation and IF amplification.
Technical Context
The LT1223CN8#PBF uses current feedback architecture: closed-loop bandwidth remains stable across gains (e.g., AV = 1 to 100) when RF is held constant, unlike voltage-feedback op amps. Its bandwidth is set by the Thevenin resistance at the inverting input and internal compensation capacitance-not by gain-bandwidth product.
It features dual-stage slew limiting: input stage ~350V/µs, output stage up to 2000V/µs (at RF = 1kΩ); thermal settling contributes ~200µV/V of input common-mode change in noninverting mode. Pin 8 enables shutdown, reducing supply current to <3mA and placing output in high-Z state.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth | 100MHz at AV = 1 (RF = RG = 1kΩ); stable across gain settings due to current feedback topology |
| Slew Rate | 1000V/µs typical (RF = RG = 1.5kΩ); output-limited; degrades with larger RF |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1mV max (0°C to 70°C); directly impacts DC accuracy in precision gain stages |
| Output Current | ±50mA min into 200Ω; supports driving double-terminated 75Ω cables without external buffers |
| Settling Time | 75ns to 0.1% (RF = RG = 1kΩ, VOUT = 10V); critical for 12-bit data acquisition systems |
| Supply Range | ±5V to ±15V (absolute max ±18V); enables operation in industrial and broadcast video rails |
| Shutdown Current | <3mA when Pin 8 sinks >200µA; enables power-gating in multi-channel video systems |
Pinout & Package
LT1223CN8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP (N8 package), 0.300-inch wide, with through-hole mounting and JEDEC-standard pinout. Operating junction temperature is rated to 150°C (θJA = 100°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Null / Offset Adjust | Connects to external potentiometer for trimming inverting input bias current-induced offset |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Current-sensing node; requires stable RF termination to set bandwidth and stability |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | Voltage-sensing node; 10MΩ input resistance; common-mode range extends to rails |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail; must be bypassed with ≥4.7µF tantalum within 0.5 inch |
| 5 | Null / Offset Adjust | Second offset trim terminal; used with Pin 1 for 2-terminal nulling circuit |
| 6 | Shutdown | Active-low enable: sinking >200µA forces shutdown; open-circuit = normal operation |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply rail; same bypassing requirement as V– |
| 8 | Output (OUT) | Class-AB output stage; ±50mA drive; enters high-impedance state during shutdown |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Gain-stable bandwidth | Maintains ~100MHz bandwidth from AV = 1 to AV = 100 when RF fixed at 1kΩ-enables scalable video gain without recompensation |
| Double-terminated cable drive | ±50mA output + low output impedance (35Ω) allows direct drive of 75Ω coax without external buffers or line receivers |
| Thermal settling control | Noninverting configuration exhibits predictable ~200µV/V thermal tail-enables accurate error budgeting in 10-bit+ video digitizers |
| Shutdown with high-Z output | Pin 8 activation reduces quiescent current to <3mA and disconnects output-essential for power-managed multi-amplifier video routing |
| RF-resistor–tuned response | Bandwidth and peaking adjusted via RF (not RG); supports optimization for flash ADC interfaces or low-distortion IF amplification |
Applications
| Video Cable Driver | IF Amplifier |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1395CS6#TRMPBF | 400MHz bandwidth, 800V/µs slew, SOT-23-6 package, no shutdown pin | Better for ultra-high-frequency IF stages (>200MHz); unsuitable for cable driving due to 100mA output limit and no high-Z shutdown | Select when board space is constrained and bandwidth >250MHz is required; verify layout for RF stability without shutdown control |
| LT1206CN8#PBF | 60MHz bandwidth, 900V/µs slew, 250mA output, integrated shutdown | Higher output current suits active video distribution; lower bandwidth limits use in >80MHz ADC sampling clocks | Prefer for multi-drop video fanout or high-current analog mux buffering where 60MHz suffices and 250mA drive is essential |
Compared with LT1223CN8#PBF, LT1395CS6#TRMPBF trades shutdown and DIP packaging for higher bandwidth in a micro-package, while LT1206CN8#PBF offers greater output current and simpler shutdown but sacrifices 40MHz bandwidth-making LT1223CN8#PBF optimal for balanced video/cable + precision data acquisition roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe supply voltage for LT1223CN8#PBF?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for LT1223CN8#PBF is ±18V (36V total). Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. The device is characterized from ±5V to ±15V, and bandwidth scales approximately linearly with supply voltage-e.g., bandwidth at ±5V is roughly half that at ±15V for identical RF.
Does LT1223CN8#PBF support single-supply operation?
Yes, LT1223CN8#PBF supports single-supply operation (e.g., +10V and GND), provided the input common-mode range and output swing remain within specification. Input voltage range is typically ±10V, and output swing is ±10V into 200Ω-so with +10V supply, usable output is ~0.5V to 9.5V depending on load.
How does feedback resistor (RF) selection affect LT1223CN8#PBF performance?
RF directly sets bandwidth, stability, and slew rate in LT1223CN8#PBF. Lower RF (e.g., 750Ω) increases bandwidth and slew but may cause peaking; higher RF (e.g., 2kΩ) reduces bandwidth and improves phase margin. Gain is set by RG, not RF-changing RF alone preserves gain while tuning dynamics.
Can LT1223CN8#PBF drive capacitive loads directly?
LT1223CN8#PBF can drive moderate capacitive loads (≤100pF) directly if RF is increased per the "Maximum Capacitive Load vs Feedback Resistor" curve. For larger loads, a 10–20Ω isolation resistor in series with the output is recommended to maintain stability without degrading DC accuracy.
What is the thermal settling behavior of LT1223CN8#PBF in noninverting configurations?
In noninverting mode, LT1223CN8#PBF exhibits ~200µV of thermal settling per volt of input common-mode change, resulting in ~2.5mV tail after a 10V step. This is distinct from inverting mode (<500µV thermal settling) and must be included in timing budgets for precision video or data acquisition systems.
