CA3140E

Description

The CA3140E BiMOS operational amplifiers feature gate-protected MOSFET (PMOS) transistors in the input circuit to provide very high input impedance, very low input current, and high-speed performance.
The CA3140E operates at supply voltage from 4V to 36V (either single or dual supply). These operational amplifiers are internally phase compensated to achieve stable operation in unity gain follower operation
The use of PMOS field-effect transistors in the input stage results in common- mode input-voltage capability down to 0.5V below the negative supply terminal, an important attribute for single-supply applications.
CA3140E has an access terminal for a supplementary external capacitor if additional frequency roll-off is desired. Terminals are also provided for use in applications requiring input offset voltage nulling.
The output stage uses bipolar transistors and includes built-in protection against damage from load terminal short-circuiting to either supply rail or to ground.
