What the 180 V/µs slew rate buys you
The AD8065ARTZ-REEL is a single-channel voltage-feedback amplifier from the FastFET™ series, delivering a 180 V/µs slew rate that makes it a strong candidate for driving high-speed ADCs, video distribution, or any signal path where large-signal settling time matters more than small-signal bandwidth alone. The -3 dB bandwidth of 145 MHz defines the small-signal gain flatness; pair it with the 180 V/µs slew rate and you get a combination that handles both wideband and fast-edge signals without the slew-induced distortion that slower amplifiers introduce.
Rail-to-rail output and supply flexibility
Rail-to-rail output lets the amplifier swing within millivolts of the supply rails, a practical advantage in single-supply designs where every bit of dynamic range is needed — think 5 V or 24 V systems. Supply current is 6.6 mA per channel, and the output can source or sink 30 mA — enough to drive a 50 Ω load or a moderate capacitive line without an external buffer.
Temperature range and package reality
Housed in a SOT-23-5 — the same footprint as the SC-74A — this is a five-pin surface-mount package with 0.95 mm pitch. The small size saves board space but demands careful solder-paste stencil design to avoid bridging on the narrow pads.
Sourcing posture: active, no EOL clock ticking
Analog Devices lists the AD8065ARTZ-REEL as Active and ROHS3 compliant. Supplied on tape and reel — the -REEL suffix indicates 7-inch reel quantities typical for this SOT-23-5 package.
