LT1468
90MHz, 22V/µs
16-Bit Accurate
Operational Amplifier
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
TheLT®1468isaprecisionhighspeedoperationalamplifier
with 16-bit accuracy and 900ns settling to 150μV for 10V
signals.ThisuniqueblendofprecisionandACperformance
makes the LT1468 the optimum choice for high accuracy
applications such as DAC current-to-voltage conversion
and ADC buffers. The initial accuracy and drift character-
istics of the input offset voltage and inverting input bias
current are tailored for inverting applications.

The 90MHz gain bandwidth ensures high open-loop gain
at frequency for reducing distortion. In noninverting ap-
plications such as an ADC buffer, the low distortion and
DC accuracy allow full 16-bit AC and DC performance.
