op-amp suggestions - 20MHz, 30mA, hi-z output

Ken Smith wrote...
The requirement wasn't clear but I wonder if the LT1206 wouldn't do
the job. It isn't exactly low cost, but it may run cheaper than a
multicomponent circuit. I believe that the LT1206's output is high
impedance when you disable it.
Yes. "In the shutdown mode, the output looks like a 40pF capacitor
and the supply current is typically 100uA." A nice part, I added it
to my table. I like the LT1206CT7's TO-220 package, with its 5 C/W
thermal resistance. One possible issue, it's a current-mode opamp.

part f_T Vsupply Iout slew tristate
number manuf MHz max max V/us output? comments
------ ----- --- ----- ---- ---- ------- ------------
LT1206 LTC 120 36V 500mA 900 yes current mode
CLC431 NSC 120 33V 60mA 2000 yes G = 2 min
CLC411 NSC 200 36V 70mA 2300 yes +/-6V Vout max

And one huge advantage for the LT1206 over the CLC parts, it's not
discontinued! In stock at DigiKey for $5.42 qty 25, $4.35 qty 1k.
That's a pretty reasonable price.

Go back a level for the table.

The LT1206 also drives reactive loads, capacitive and inductive, without
going silly. A lot of parts that drive capacitive loads ok have trouble
with inductive loads.

And there's the LT1207, which is a dual LT1206 in a 16-pin soic.
BTW, both the LT1206 and LT1207 have thermal shutdown circuits.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! A technical discussion. Will miracles never

As I said before, I'd use booster discretes at the output, making it a
piece-a-cake to tri-state.
Sounds good. The devil would be in the details of opening the
feedback loop and the recovery on closing it, again. Especially if
this had to happen quickly or often.

Hi,

I need an op-amp to drive 30mA, on 24V supply, signal is quite high
frequency, 120kHz so I reckon I want at least 40dB to give low
distortion, i.e. at least GBW 20MHz but 200MHz would be better.

TI has lots of +-15 rail opamps that are *very* fast. THS3061 and
such. Fairly cheap.

also need to be able to turn the output high impedance.

*That* I don't understand.

John

He needs to "tri-state" his OpAmp.

Think that's what he meant? Downstream analog switch, then.

John

Malcolm said "30mA". That's a bit rough with an analog switch.

...Jim Thompson

Not any more. Some of the parts are down to 1 ohm. And I suppose you
could also use an SSR.

Yep! Malcolm needs to provide more details.

...Jim Thompson

It's surprising how many people post a question and then vanish from
the thread.
