Product details
Overview
LT1497CS#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual current feedback amplifier optimized for high-speed, high-output-drive video and line-driver applications. It delivers ±125mA output current per channel, 50MHz bandwidth at ±15V supplies, 900V/µs slew rate, and ±13V output swing into 100mA loads - enabling robust twisted-pair and coaxial cable driving in HDSL2 and broadcast video systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1497CS#PBF datasheet, LT1497CS#PBF pinout, LT1497CS#PBF application, or LT1497CS#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its SO-16 package thermal resistance (θJA = 40°C/W), ±2.5V to ±15V supply flexibility, differential gain (0.02%) and phase (0.015°) performance at 150Ω, and guaranteed thermal shutdown protection under fault conditions.
Technical Context
The LT1497CS#PBF uses complementary bipolar current feedback architecture with separate input and output stages, enabling bandwidth stability across gain configurations via feedback resistor tuning (e.g., 560Ω for AV = –1). Its transresistance gain (ROL ≥ 100kΩ) and low input bias current mismatch (±1µA typ.) support precision closed-loop control in high-frequency signal paths.
Thermal design is integral: the SO-16 package features enhanced heat dissipation (θJA = 40°C/W on 2500mm² 2oz copper), and internal thermal shutdown activates at 150°C junction temperature - cycling operation without damage during sustained overload or poor PCB heatsinking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth | 50MHz at ±15V supply, RF = RG = 560Ω, RL = 100Ω - enables full HD video and 1–2MHz HDSL2 line driving without gain peaking. |
| Slew Rate | 900V/µs at ±15V - supports fast transient response for 10V step settling in 55ns (0.1%), critical for pulse-amplifier and test-equipment designs. |
| Output Current | ±125mA per amplifier, RL = 1Ω - drives 50Ω/75Ω cables directly and sustains ±12.65V swing into 100mA loads at ±15V. |
| Supply Range | ±2.5V to ±15V - allows operation from low-voltage portable systems (±2.5V) to industrial line drivers (±15V) without redesign. |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.02% / 0.015° at AV = 2, RL = 150Ω, ±15V - meets NTSC composite video fidelity requirements without external correction. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±3mV max (25°C), ±10mV over full temp range - ensures DC accuracy in buffered sensor interfaces and precision gain blocks. |
| Channel Separation | 100dB min at ±15V - prevents crosstalk between dual channels in stereo audio, dual ADC buffering, or differential signaling paths. |
Pinout & Package
LT1497CS#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic SO (narrow 0.150") package with exposed V– pins for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is OUT A; pins 2–4 are –IN A, +IN A, V–; pins 5–8 are NC, V–, NC, V–; pins 9–12 are V–, NC, V+, OUT B; pins 13–16 are –IN B, +IN B, NC, V–. V– is connected to 4 pins (2, 6, 10, 16) to reduce thermal resistance and improve power dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT A) | Inverting amplifier output A | Drives load directly; capable of ±125mA sink/source; requires external feedback to –IN A. |
| 2 (–IN A) | Inverting input A | Current-summing node; must be connected to feedback resistor; sensitive to stray capacitance. |
| 3 (+IN A) | Noninverting input A | High-impedance voltage reference point; bias current ≤ ±3µA (25°C); used for unity-gain buffer configuration. |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply rail A | Shared negative rail for both amplifiers; four dedicated pins (2, 6, 10, 16) lower thermal resistance to 40°C/W. |
| 9 (V–) | Negative supply rail B (shared) | Electrically tied to pin 4; provides low-inductance return path for both channels' quiescent and output currents. |
| 12 (OUT B) | Inverting amplifier output B | Independent output channel; identical specs to OUT A; enables dual-path signal conditioning or paralleled drive. |
| 13 (–IN B) | Inverting input B | Separate current-summing node; no electrical coupling to –IN A; supports independent gain/feedback networks. |
| 14 (+IN B) | Noninverting input B | Independent high-Z input; offset voltage matching ≤ ±1mV vs +IN A enables precise dual-channel tracking. |
| 15 (V+) | Positive supply rail | Single positive rail for both amplifiers; decoupling recommended within 1cm of pin using 0.1µF ceramic + 10µF tantalum. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Enhanced thermal SO-16 package | θJA = 40°C/W (vs. 80°C/W for SO-8 variant), enabling ±15V operation without derating in compact layouts. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Automatic cycling at TJ ≥ 150°C prevents permanent damage during output short-circuit or excessive ambient conditions. |
| Low distortion at high frequency | –70dBc 2nd/3rd harmonic distortion at 1MHz for ±40mA signals - meets HDSL2 spectral mask requirements. |
| Wide supply compatibility | Operates from ±2.5V to ±15V with monotonic parameter shifts - eliminates need for multiple BOM variants across voltage domains. |
| Guaranteed output drive | ±125mA minimum per channel into 1Ω - supports direct driving of 50Ω/75Ω transmission lines without external boost transistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1207CS#PBF | Higher output drive (±250mA), same 60MHz bandwidth, but 40mA supply current vs. LT1497CS#PBF's 7mA per amp. | Preferred for >±200mA load demands; less suitable for low-power portable or thermally constrained designs. | Select LT1207CS#PBF only when absolute maximum output current exceeds ±125mA and thermal budget allows higher quiescent dissipation. |
| LT1364CS#PBF | 70MHz bandwidth, 1000V/µs slew rate, but limited to ±50mA output and C-Load™ stability with capacitive loads. | Better for high-bandwidth, low-current precision buffering (e.g., photodiode transimpedance); not rated for cable driving. | Choose LT1364CS#PBF for applications prioritizing speed/noise over drive strength - e.g., front-end instrumentation amplifiers. |
Compared with LT1207CS#PBF and LT1364CS#PBF, the LT1497CS#PBF uniquely balances ±125mA drive, 50MHz bandwidth, and 7mA supply current - making it optimal for thermally sensitive, medium-power line-driving applications where efficiency and fidelity are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LT1497CS#PBF?
The LT1497CS#PBF has an absolute maximum total supply voltage (V+ to V–) rating of 36V, supporting operation from ±2.5V up to ±15V. This wide range allows use in both low-voltage portable systems and industrial ±15V signal chains without level-shifting circuitry. Exceeding ±15V violates the specified operating conditions and may degrade parametric performance or reliability.
Does LT1497CS#PBF support single-supply operation?
Yes, the LT1497CS#PBF supports single-supply operation down to +4V total supply (e.g., V+ = +5V, V– = GND), though input common-mode and output swing ranges are reduced versus split-supply use. For example, at +5V/GND, the input voltage range is 0.5V to 4.0V and maximum output swing is ±2.75V into 100mA - requiring careful biasing in AC-coupled configurations.
How does thermal shutdown behave in LT1497CS#PBF during overload?
When the LT1497CS#PBF junction temperature exceeds 150°C, its thermal shutdown circuit cycles the device between normal operation and high-impedance output state at intervals of ~10ms to several seconds. This protects against permanent damage during sustained output short-circuits or inadequate PCB heatsinking, and the cycling itself causes no reliability degradation.
Can LT1497CS#PBF drive 50Ω coaxial cables directly?
Yes, the LT1497CS#PBF can drive 50Ω coaxial cables directly: it delivers ±125mA per channel and ±12.65V output swing into 100mA loads at ±15V, exceeding the ±100mA required for 5V RMS into 50Ω. For optimal signal integrity, use 560Ω feedback resistors and maintain short, controlled-impedance traces to minimize reflections and parasitic inductance.
What is the small-signal bandwidth of LT1497CS#PBF at ±5V supply?
At ±5V supply, the LT1497CS#PBF achieves 35MHz small-signal bandwidth with RF = RG = 560Ω and RL = 100Ω. Bandwidth scales with supply voltage due to increased internal bias current; it drops to 30MHz at ±2.5V and rises to 50MHz at ±15V - a key consideration when designing for multi-voltage platforms or battery-powered operation.
