300 V/µs slew rate, 70 MHz bandwidth — what this amplifier is built for
Its 300 V/µs slew rate and 70 MHz -3 dB bandwidth put it in the class of parts that handle fast pulse signals and video-rate waveforms, not just slow sensor conditioning. The 35 mA supply current per channel tells you it's biased for speed, not micropower — this is the part you reach for when a 20 mA output per channel needs to slew a capacitive load or drive a coaxial cable without rounding off the edges.
That means a standard ±5 V analog rail works, but a single 5 V supply does not — the part lacks a true rail-to-rail input or output stage that would let it swing to ground on a single supply. If your board only has a single 5 V rail, this part won't fit without generating a negative rail. The 8-SOIC footprint is common, so layout reuse across a dual-supply analog section is straightforward.
Package and handling: 8-SOIC in tube
If your pick-and-place line expects reels, factor in a tube-to-reel transfer or order the tape-and-reel variant if one exists. The 8-SOIC body is 3.90 mm wide — standard SOIC-8 footprint, no surprises for the PCB layout engineer.
