JFET front-end with 30 MHz GBW
The OP17EZ is a single JFET-input operational amplifier from Analog Devices, offering a 30 MHz gain-bandwidth product and a 60 V/µs slew rate — fast enough for video distribution amplifiers, high-speed ADC drivers, or wideband signal conditioning where settling time matters. Input bias current is 15 pA typical, which keeps DC errors low when the source impedance is in the megohm range — think photodiode preamps or pH probe buffers. Supply span goes to 44 V total, meaning you can run it on ±22 V rails or a single 44 V supply, giving headroom for large output swings without clipping.
Hermetic 8-CERDIP for controlled environments
Housed in an 8-lead CERDIP (0.300" wide, 7.62 mm pitch), the package is hermetic ceramic — moisture resistance is better than plastic DIP, which matters for long-life industrial or aerospace boards that see humidity cycling. Temperature range is commercial grade: 0°C to 70°C ambient. That covers most indoor instrumentation, lab gear, and telecom rack equipment, but not engine-bay or outdoor pole-mount enclosures. Through-hole mounting means the part fits legacy PCB layouts and prototype boards; the 0.100-inch pitch is breadboard-friendly.
