ALD2706

The ALD2706 is a dual monolithic CMOS micropower high slew-rate operational amplifier intended for a broad range of analog applications using ±1V to ±6V dual power supply systems, as well as +2V to +12V battery operated systems. All device characteristics are specified for +5V single supply or ±2.5V dual supply systems. Supply current is 80mA maximum at 5V supply voltage. ALD2706 is manufactured with Advanced Linear Devices' enhanced A CMOS silicon gate CMOS process.

The ALD2706 is designed to offer a trade-off of performance parameters providing a wide range of desired specifications. It offers the popular industry standard pin configuration.

The ALD2706 has been developed specifically for the +5V single supply or ±1V to ±6V dual supply user. Several important characteristics of the device make application easier to implement at those voltages. First, each operational amplifier can operate with rail to rail input and output voltages. This means the signal input voltage and output voltage can be equal to the positive and negative supply voltages. This feature allows numerous analog serial stages and flexibility in input signal bias levels. Secondly, each device was designed to accommodate mixed applications where digital and analog circuits may operate off the same power supply or battery. Thirdly, the output stage can typically drive up to 25pF capacitive and 20KW resistive loads. These features, combined with extremely low input currents, high open loop voltage gain of 100V/mV, useful bandwidth of 200KHz, a slew rate of 0.1V/ms, low offset voltage and temperature drift, make the ALD2706 a versatile, micropower dual operational amplifier.

A typical ALD2706 has the capacity to process a 0.998V amplitude analog signal with only 1.000V single supply voltage, while requiring only 0.1pA input bias current.
