AD826 is a high-performance, low-power dual operational amplifier from Analog Devices. It features high output current drive capability of 50 mA min per amp, and is able to drive unlimited capacitive loads. With a low power supply current of 15 mA max for both amplifiers, the AD826 is a true general purpose operational amplifier.
The AD826 is a dual, high‑speed, low‑power operational amplifier designed for unity‑gain buffers, cable drivers, and high‑speed data‑acquisition systems. It offers a 50 MHz unity‑gain bandwidth, 350 V/µs slew rate, and can drive unlimited capacitive loads with a minimum output current of 50 mA per amplifier.
The datasheet includes detailed electrical specifications, typical characteristic curves, ordering information for both plastic DIP and SOIC packages, and guidelines for ESD protection and thermal handling. It also provides application notes for video line drivers, ADC/DAC buffers, and other high‑speed analog circuits.
