DESCRIPTION
The NE/SA5234 is a matched, low voltage, high performance quad
operational amplifier. Among its unique input and output
characteristics is the capability for both input and output rail-to-rail
operation, particularly critical in low voltage applications. The output
swings to less than 50 mV of both rails across the entire power
supply range. The NE/SA5234 is capable of delivering 5.5 V
peak-to-peak across a 600 Ω load and will typically draw only
700 µA per amplifier. The bandwidth is 2.5 MHz and the 1% settling
time is 1.4 µs.
FEATURES
•Wide common-mode input voltage range: 250 mV beyond both
rails
•Output swing within 50 mV of both rails
•Functionality to 1.8 V typical
•Low current consumption: 700 µA per amplifier
•±15 mA output current capability
•Unity gain bandwidth: 2.5 MHz
•Slew rate: 0.8 V/µs
•Low noise: 25 nV/√Hz
•Electrostatic discharge protection
•Short-circuit protection
•Output inversion prevention

NOTES:
1. Each pin is protected by ESD diodes. The voltage at any pin is limited by the ESD diodes.
2. The differential input of each amplifier is limited by two internal diodes, connected in parallel and opposite to each other. For more differential
input range, use differential resistors in series with the input pins.
3. The maximum operating junction temperature is +150 °C. At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated according to the package
thermal resistance and device mounting conditions. Derates above +25 °C: N package at 9.5 mW/°C; D package at 6.25 mW/°C.
4. Simultaneous short circuits of two or more amplifiers to the positive or negative rail can exceed the power dissipation ratings and cause
eventual destruction of the device.
5. Guaranteed by design.
