Three new families of Comlinear high performance amplifiers which use current feedback technology for driving HD video and other high speed applications are now available from Solid State Supplies.
The CLCx601 family of dual, triple, and quad-channel amplifiers gives 550MHz unity gain bandwidth, ±0.1dB gain flatness to 120MHz, and 1,500V/µs slew rate. These specifications combined with their large signal bandwidth, 200MHz at Gain = 2V/V and 4Vpp output, exceed the requirements of high-definition television (HDTV), set-top-box, and other multimedia applications. Offering over 50mA of output current, these amplifiers are also suitable for use in video distribution systems.
Offering a lower power alternative to the CLCx601 series, the CLC2600 (dual), CLC3600 (triple), and CLC4600 (quad) only use 3.3mA of supply current per channel. With 300MHz of unity gain bandwidth, 1,300V/µs slew rate, 0.03%/0.04° differential gain/phase, and ±0.1dB gain flatness to 55MHz at 4Vpp, these components have typical applications in active filtering, driving data converters, and instrumentation, all of which will benefit from their high slew rate and wide bandwidth flatness.
For power sensitive and general purpose high-speed applications, such as portable video and instrumentation, the CLCx603 range consumes only 1.1mA of supply current per channel. For additional power savings, the single-channel CLC1603 and triple-channel CLC3603 reduce consumption to only 0.11mA per channel when disabled. The devices offer 140MHz large signal bandwidth, 450V/µs slew rate and 100mA output drive.
Solid State Supplies also have a dual voltage feedback amplifier that offers ±200mA of output current at 9.4Vpp. The CLC2000 is capable of driving signals to within 1V of the power rails. When connected as a differential line driver, the dual amplifier drives signals up to 18.8Vpp into a 25O load, which supports the peak upstream power levels for upstream full-rate ADSL CPE applications.
The low differential gain/phase (0.009%/0.06°), low noise (4.5nV/vHz), low 2nd/3rd harmonic distortion (-83dBc/-83dBc at 8.4Vpp), and high output current make the CLC2000 ideal for application in Customer Premise ADSL or driving video over long lengths (up to 1km) of twisted pair cable.
