GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8397 comprises two voltage feedback operational amplifiers
capable of driving heavy loads with excellent linearity. The
common-emitter, rail-to-rail output stage surpasses the output
voltage capability of typical emitter-follower output stages and
can swing to within 0.5 V of either rail while driving a 25 Ω
load. The low distortion, high output current, and wide output
dynamic range make the AD8397 ideal for applications that
require a large signal swing into a heavy load.
Fabricated with Analog Devices, Inc., high speed extra fast
complementary bipolar high voltage (XFCB-HV) process, the
high bandwidth and fast slew rate of the AD8397 keep distortion to
a minimum. The AD8397 is available in a standard 8-lead SOIC_N
package and, for higher power dissipating applications, a thermally
enhanced 8-lead SOIC_N_EP package. Both packages can operate
from −40°C to +85°C.
