General Description

The COMLINEAR CLC1605 (single), CLC2605 (dual), and CLC3605 (triple)

are high-performance, current feedback amplifiers that provide 1.5GHz unity

gain bandwidth, ±0.1dB gain flatness to 120MHz, and 2,500V/μs slew rate.

This high performance exceeds the requirements of high-definition television

(HDTV) and other multimedia applications. These COMLINEAR high-

performance amplifiers also provide ample output current to drive multiple

video loads.

The COMLINEAR CLC1605, CLC2605, and CLC3605 are designed to operate

from ±5V or +5V supplies. The CLC3605 offers a fast enable/disable feature

to save power. While disabled, the outputs are in a high-impedance state

to allow for multiplexing applications. The combination of high-speed, low-

power, and excellent video performance make these amplifiers well suited

for use in many general purpose, high-speed applications including high-

definition video, imaging applications, and radar/communications receivers.

Typical Application - Driving Dual Video Loads
