High-speed differential amplifier in 8-SOIC
With an 85 MHz -3 dB bandwidth and a 360V/µs slew rate, it suits video distribution, high-speed data acquisition, and communications receiver front-ends where differential signaling preserves signal integrity over long cable runs or noisy backplanes.
The 360V/µs slew rate means the output can swing 3.6 V in 10 ns, enough to handle fast pulse edges in video or radar IF chains without introducing slew-induced distortion. The 85 MHz small-signal bandwidth supports composite video (NTSC/PAL at ~5 MHz) with ample margin and can pass a 10 MHz square wave with edge rates intact. For a 2 Vpp output at 20 MHz, the required slew rate is about 125 V/µs, so the AD830JRZ-R7 has roughly 3x headroom — useful when driving capacitive loads like a long coaxial cable. Supply current is 14.5 mA typical, which is moderate for this speed class. At 50 mA output current per channel, it can drive 50 Ω or 75 Ω terminated lines directly. The single-supply range down to 8V means a 5V rail won't work, but 12V and 15V rails common in bench and industrial gear are fine.
Single-supply operation and supply voltage range
Yes, the AD830JRZ-R7 can be used in single-supply applications. The supply voltage range for single-supply operation is 8V to 33V. For dual-supply systems, the range is ±4V to ±16.5V. This makes it compatible with common ±5V, ±12V, and ±15V rails, as well as single 12V or 24V supplies used in industrial control and instrumentation.
Sourcing and procurement posture
The AD830JRZ-R7 is available to order through independent distribution. The tape-and-reel variant (the -R7 suffix) is the production-friendly format, though cut-tape quantities can also be sourced for prototypes.
