The EL1516 is a dual, ultra low noise amplifier, ideally suited to line receiving applications in ADSL, VDSL, and home PNA designs.
The EL1516 is a dual, ultra‑low‑noise amplifier designed for line‑receiving applications such as ADSL, VDSL and home‑PNA. It provides a very low voltage‑noise of 1.3 nV/√Hz and current‑noise of 1.5 pA/√Hz, making it suitable for detecting very low‑amplitude signals.
Key features include a -3 dB bandwidth of 350 MHz (Ay = -1), gain‑of‑2 stability, low power dissipation (5.5 mA per amplifier), an enable/disable function that reduces current to 5 nA, operation from 5 V to 12 V, and a temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C. The device is available in 8‑lead MSOP, 8‑lead SOIC, and a 10‑lead MSOP package for the EL1516A variant.
