Product details
Overview
LT1363CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-speed, unity-gain stable voltage-feedback operational amplifier with current-feedback-like slew behavior. It delivers 70MHz gain bandwidth, 1000V/µs slew rate at ±15V supplies, 9nV/√Hz input noise, and drives ±7.5V into 150Ω - making it suitable for video line drivers, active filters, and high-fidelity data acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LT1363CN8#PBF datasheet, LT1363CN8#PBF pinout, LT1363CN8#PBF application, or LT1363CN8#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified DC/AC specifications, PDIP-8 package layout, capacitive-load stability confirmation, differential gain/phase performance at 3.58MHz, and validated alternatives for buffer, cable driver, and precision high-speed amplification use cases.
Technical Context
The LT1363CN8#PBF employs a proprietary voltage-feedback topology with complementary NPN/PNP input buffering and a single high-speed gain stage. Its slew rate scales with input differential voltage, enabling superior transient response in low-gain configurations (e.g., AV = –1 or unity gain).
It features internal compensation optimized for unconditional stability with any capacitive load (CL ≥ 0), achieved via bootstrapped RC network that dynamically adjusts phase margin. Performance is specified across ±2.5V, ±5V, and ±15V dual supplies, with guaranteed operation from –40°C to 85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 70MHz at ±15V - enables stable closed-loop operation up to ~10MHz in AV = 7 configuration |
| Slew Rate | 1000V/µs at ±15V, AV = –2 - supports <50ns 10V settling to 0.1% in inverting configurations |
| Input Noise Voltage | 9nV/√Hz at 10kHz - preserves SNR in wideband signal conditioning paths |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.5mV max at ±15V - ensures ≤0.01% error in 10V full-scale precision gain stages |
| Output Drive | ±7.5V into 150Ω at ±15V - directly drives 75Ω coaxial cables with series termination |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.06%/0.04° at 3.58MHz, AV = 2, RL = 150Ω - meets NTSC/PAL video fidelity requirements |
| Supply Current | 7.5mA max at ±15V - balances speed and power in space-constrained analog signal chains |
Pinout & Package
LT1363CN8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP (N8) package with 0.300-inch width, JEDEC MS-001 compliant footprint, and 190°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating or grounded per layout best practice |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting Input | High-impedance NPN/PNP composite node; balanced source resistance recommended for DC accuracy |
| 3 (+IN) | Noninverting Input | Complementary input pair; withstands ±10V transient differential without damage |

| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; no routing required |
| 6 (V+) | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts up to ±18V total supply; requires low-ESR local decoupling |
| 7 (OUT) | Amplifier Output | Capable of 50mA continuous output; stable with unlimited capacitive load |
| 8 (V–) | Negative Supply Rail | Duplicate V– pin for improved grounding; tie directly to Pin 4 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1364CS8#PBF | Dual-channel version in SO-8; identical AC specs but higher per-channel supply current (7.8mA typ) | Preferred when two matched high-speed amps are needed on same board, e.g., differential receiver front-end | Select LT1364CS8#PBF only if dual-channel integration reduces PCB area/cost; not pin-compatible with LT1363CN8#PBF |
| LT1812CS8#PBF | 100MHz GBW, lower 750V/µs slew rate, 3mA supply current; rated for 2.7V to 12.6V single-supply operation | Better suited for battery-powered instrumentation where supply headroom is limited and 100MHz bandwidth is critical | Choose LT1812CS8#PBF for low-voltage, high-bandwidth applications; requires redesign for ±15V systems |
Compared with LT1363CN8#PBF, LT1364CS8#PBF offers channel density at the cost of layout compatibility, while LT1812CS8#PBF trades slew rate and supply flexibility for ultra-low voltage operation - neither is drop-in replaceable, but both serve adjacent high-speed analog niches.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LT1363CN8#PBF can drive stably?
The LT1363CN8#PBF is unconditionally stable with any capacitive load, including direct connection to coaxial cables or large (>10,000pF) capacitive terminations. This is enabled by its C-Load™ architecture, which dynamically adjusts internal compensation based on load-induced pole location. No external isolation resistor or feedback capacitor is required, though a 75Ω series resistor is recommended for optimal pulse fidelity on 75Ω transmission lines.
Does the LT1363CN8#PBF support single-supply operation?
Yes, the LT1363CN8#PBF operates reliably from a single 5V supply. Its symmetrical input common-mode range (±12V at ±15V supplies, scaling down to ±0.5V at ±2.5V) and rail-to-rail output swing capability enable clean operation with DC biasing - for example, 2.5V input/output centering in 5V video systems. Full specifications are guaranteed at ±2.5V, ±5V, and ±15V dual supplies.
What is the thermal resistance of the LT1363CN8#PBF package?
The LT1363CN8#PBF uses an 8-lead PDIP (N8) package with a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 190°C/W. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2S2P test board conditions. For high-power applications, junction temperature must be calculated as TJ = TA + (PD × 190°C/W), where PD includes quiescent supply dissipation and output stage I²R losses.
Can the LT1363CN8#PBF replace AD847 or EL2020 in existing designs?
Yes - the LT1363CN8#PBF is explicitly recommended as a direct functional upgrade for AD847, EL2020, EL2044, LM6361, and AD817. It improves both DC performance (lower VOS, IB) and AC performance (higher GBW, slew rate, and settling speed). Nulling circuitry used with older parts must be removed, as the LT1363CN8#PBF does not require external offset trim.
What is the small-signal settling time of the LT1363CN8#PBF?
The LT1363CN8#PBF achieves 50ns settling to 0.1% for a 10V output step in inverting configuration (AV = –1) at ±15V supplies. In noninverting unity-gain configuration, settling to 0.1% is 55ns for a 5V step at ±5V supplies. These values reflect its single-stage architecture and high slew rate, making it suitable for high-throughput sampling systems where aperture uncertainty must be minimized.
