+12V
The EL2227 is a dual voltage feedback operational amplifier
designed especially for DMT ADSL and other applications
requiring very low voltage and current noise. It also features
low distortion while drawing moderately low supply current
and is built on Elantec's proprietary high-speed

complementary bipolar process. The EL2227 use a classical
voltage-feedback topology which allows them to be used in a
variety of applications where current-feedback amplifiers are
not appropriate because of restrictions placed upon the
feedback element used with the amplifier. The conventional
topology of the EL2227 allows, for example, a capacitor to
be placed in the feedback path, making it an excellent choice
for applications such as active filters, sample-and-holds, or
integrators.

ADSL CPE Applications
With the wide power supply range and large output drive
capability of the EL2227, it is possible to exceed the 150°C
maximum junction temperatures under certain load and
power-supply conditions. It is therefore important to
The low noise EL2227 amplifier is specifically designed for
the dual differential receiver amplifier function with ADSL
transceiver hybrids as well as other low-noise amplifier
applications. A typical ADSL CPE line interface circuit is
shown in Figure 1. The EL2227 is used in receiving DMT
down stream signal. With careful transceiver hybrid design
and the EL2227 1.9nV/√Hz voltage noise and 1.2pA/√Hz
current noise performance, -140dBm/Hz system background
noise performance can be easily achieved.
