Description
The EL2125 is an ultra-low noise, wideband amplifier that runs on half the supply current of competitive parts. It is intended for use in systems such as ultrasound imaging where a very small signal needs to be amplified by a large amount without adding significant noise. Its low power dissipation enables it to be packaged in the tiny SOT-23 package, which further helps systems where many input channels create both space and power dissipation problems. The EL2125 is stable for gains of 10 and greater and uses traditional voltage feedback. This allows the use of reactive elements in the feedback loop, a common requirement for many filter topologies. It operates from ±2. 5V to ±15V supplies and is available in the 5 Ld SOT-23 and 8 Ld SOIC packages. The EL2125 is fabricated using Elantec's proprietary complementary bipolar process, and is specified for operation from -45°C to +85°C.
Applications
- Ultrasound input amplifiers
- Wideband instrumentation

- Application NotePDF 263 KB r13an0003eu0100-biasing-op-amps Dec 06, 2019AI-generated Summary: Proper biasing of operational amplifiers is essential to avoid malfunction in AC-coupled circuits. A missing DC bias path causes long stabilization times and potential failures. Adding input resistors to ground provides a DC path for bias currents, minimizing offset errors. For single-supply AC-coupled amplifiers, biasing uses a reference voltage, ideally from a high-PSRR voltage reference or buffered voltage divider, to maintain signal symmetry and reduce noise. Understanding frequency responses of input and feedback components is crucial for setting bandwidth and gain characteristics.
- Application NotePDF 564 KB an1993 May 22, 2018AI-generated Summary: Voltage feedback (VFB) amplifiers use a differential input pair, a high-impedance stage, and an output buffer to convert input voltage differences into output voltage. The VFB amplifier's gain decreases at a dominant pole frequency due to compensation capacitors. Current feedback (CFB) amplifiers include a class AB input amplifier, current mirror, high-impedance stage, and output buffer. CFB amplifiers provide faster switching and higher slew rates by drawing charge/discharge currents directly from supply rails, unlike VFB amplifiers which are limited by biasing current sources.

The document clarifies product quality grades, intended applications, and restrictions on use in life-critical or hazardous systems. It emphasizes compliance with applicable laws and safety responsibilities when using Renesas products. Contact information for Renesas sales offices worldwide is also provided.
- Application NotePDF 843 KB an535 Jun 05, 2002AI-generated Summary: A Data Acquisition System (DAS) requires careful design of signal conditioning, transducer selection, and signal transmission to ensure high accuracy. Signal conditioning includes multiplexing, amplification, filtering, and calibration, ideally performed near the transducer. Transducers convert physical variables to electrical signals, often voltage, with low source resistance preferred. Signal paths can be single-ended or differential; differential paths better reject common mode noise, especially for low-level signals. Shielded twisted pairs and balanced lines reduce interference. Filters, typically Butterworth low-pass, prevent aliasing and maintain signal integrity.
