Product details
Overview
LT1399IS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a triple 300MHz current feedback amplifier with independent shutdown pins per channel, designed for high-speed video routing and RGB cable driving. It delivers 800V/µs slew rate, 30ns turn-on time, ±5V input differential range, and operates on ±5V supplies in a 16-pin narrow SO package.
For engineers reviewing the LT1399IS#PBF datasheet, LT1399IS#PBF pinout, LT1399IS#PBF application, or LT1399IS#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 300MHz bandwidth at AV = 1/2/–1, 0.1dB gain flatness to 150MHz, high-impedance shutdown state (0µA supply current), fast enable/disable timing, and suitability for composite video, LCD driver, and RGB MUX systems requiring precise settling and low crosstalk.
Technical Context
The LT1399IS#PBF implements a current feedback architecture with three independent amplifiers, each featuring separate enable (EN) inputs that drive outputs to high-impedance and reduce supply current to ≤100µA when asserted high. Its transimpedance gain stage enables stable operation with external RF/RG resistors, supporting closed-loop gains of +1, +2, and –1.
Each amplifier maintains 300MHz –3dB bandwidth and 150MHz 0.1dB gain flatness across ±5V supplies, with differential input voltage limited to ±5V and output swing up to ±3.6V into 150Ω. Channel isolation is enhanced by unconnected internal ground pins (Pins 3, 6, 12, 13), requiring external grounding for optimal crosstalk suppression.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth (–3dB) | 300MHz at AV = 1, 2, –1 with ±5V supplies - supports NTSC/PAL video baseband and high-resolution RGB pixel clock harmonics. |
| Gain Flatness | 0.1dB to 150MHz - ensures minimal amplitude distortion across broadcast video spectrum. |
| Slew Rate | 800V/µs at AV = 2, RL = 150Ω - enables clean 10MHz square wave reproduction with <10% overshoot. |
| Turn-On/Off Time | 30ns / 40ns - allows sub-32ns channel switching in 3-input video MUX applications. |
| Supply Range | ±2V to ±6V (4V–12V total) - compatible with standard ±5V logic and analog rails without level-shifting. |
| Output Current | ±80mA - drives 75Ω coaxial cables, 150Ω back-terminated loads, and capacitive LCD column lines. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤100µA per amplifier - eliminates quiescent power in inactive channels for portable equipment battery savings. |
Pinout & Package
LT1399IS#PBF is housed in a 16-lead narrow SO (Small Outline) plastic package (S package), 100°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (–IN R) | Inverting input of red-channel amplifier | Current feedback node requiring resistive termination (e.g., 324Ω) to OUT R for stability; sensitive to stray capacitance. |
| Pin 2 (+IN R) | Noninverting input of red-channel amplifier | High-impedance signal entry point; accepts DC-coupled RGB or composite video baseband signals. |
| Pins 3, 6, 12, 13 (GND) | Ground terminals | Not internally connected - must be externally tied to system ground to minimize inter-channel crosstalk and improve PSRR. |
| Pin 9 (EN B) | Enable control for blue-channel amplifier | Logic-low active; pulls to V– (e.g., –5V) to enable; ≥3V below V+ required for zero-supply-current shutdown. |
| Pin 10 (OUT B) | Output of blue-channel amplifier | Capable of ±3.6V swing into 150Ω; may require series resistor (e.g., 16.9Ω) for >300pF capacitive loads. |
| Pin 11 (V–) | Negative supply rail | Accepts –2V to –6V; mismatch >1V vs V+ degrades offset voltage (~600µV/V) and bias current (~2µA/V). |
| Pin 14 (V+) | Positive supply rail | Accepts +2V to +6V; powers all three amplifiers; supplies enable logic threshold reference. |
| Pins 15–16 (OUT R, EN R) | Red-channel output and enable | Matched timing and drive strength to Pins 10/9 (B) and 12/13 (G); supports synchronous 3-channel MUX switching. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed current feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1399CS#PBF | Same electrical specs and pinout; rated for 0°C to 70°C operation (vs. –40°C to 85°C for LT1399IS#PBF). | Not qualified for extended industrial temperature range; unsuitable for automotive or outdoor display enclosures. | Select LT1399CS#PBF only for commercial-grade indoor equipment with ambient <70°C. |
| LT1399HVCS#PBF | Higher voltage rating (±7.5V max); identical pinout and AC performance but wider supply range and ±6.7V output swing. | Required for ±7.5V systems or LCD drivers needing >±3.6V output swing; not drop-in for ±5V-only designs due to different PSRR vs frequency profile. | Choose LT1399HVCS#PBF when driving high-voltage LCD panels or operating beyond ±6V supply rails. |
Compared with LT1399CS#PBF, LT1399IS#PBF adds guaranteed –40°C to +85°C operation for harsh environments, while LT1399HVCS#PBF extends voltage headroom at the cost of higher quiescent current (7mA vs 4.6mA) and altered thermal derating-making LT1399IS#PBF the optimal choice for industrial RGB video infrastructure where temperature robustness and ±5V compatibility are critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range guaranteed for LT1399IS#PBF?
The LT1399IS#PBF is fully specified and guaranteed to meet all electrical performance parameters over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. This is explicitly confirmed in Note 4 and Note 9 of the official datasheet, distinguishing it from the commercial-grade LT1399CS#PBF (0°C to 70°C). Thermal design must account for θJA = 100°C/W in the narrow SO package.
Can LT1399IS#PBF drive a 75Ω coaxial cable directly?
Yes, the LT1399IS#PBF can directly drive 75Ω coaxial cable when configured in unity-gain mode with appropriate feedback (e.g., RF = RG = 324Ω) and back-termination. Its ±80mA output current and 300MHz bandwidth ensure minimal signal degradation, and typical differential gain/phase errors of 0.13%/0.10° at 3.58MHz confirm broadcast-grade fidelity for LT1399IS#PBF in such configurations.
How does the enable pin (EN) function on LT1399IS#PBF?
Each channel of LT1399IS#PBF has a dedicated enable pin (EN R, EN G, EN B) that is active-low. Pulling an EN pin to V– (e.g., –5V) activates the corresponding amplifier; pulling it ≥3V below V+ disables it, reducing supply current to ≤100µA and placing the output in high-impedance state. The enable pin current is typically 30µA when active, and CMOS logic-level drive is sufficient.
What is the maximum capacitive load LT1399IS#PBF can drive without instability?
The LT1399IS#PBF can drive up to ~1000pF with proper feedback resistor selection (e.g., RF = 2100Ω for AV = +2) or up to ~330pF with a 16.9Ω series output resistor while maintaining <2% overshoot. Stability depends on feedback resistor value, gain configuration, and load capacitance-refer to Figure 13 (G13) and Figure 14 (G14) in the datasheet for exact trade-offs applicable to LT1399IS#PBF.
Is LT1399IS#PBF pin-compatible with LT1260?
Yes, the LT1399IS#PBF is a pin-for-pin upgrade to the LT1260, optimized for ±5V/±7.5V supplies. Both share identical 16-pin SO pinouts and functional assignments (e.g., EN pins, IN/OUT mapping), but LT1399IS#PBF offers improved 300MHz bandwidth, faster 30ns turn-on, lower 4.6mA supply current per amplifier, and enhanced 0.1dB gain flatness to 150MHz-making it a direct replacement where those parameters matter.
