Description
The RHF330 is a current feedback operational
amplifier that uses very high-speed
complementary technology to provide a large
bandwidth of 1 GHz in gains of 2 while drawing
only 16.6 mA of quiescent current. The RHF330
also offers 0.1 dB gain flatness up to 160 MHz
with a gain of 2. With a slew rate of 1800 V/µs and
an output stage optimized for standard 100
Ω
loads, this device is highly suitable for
applications where speed and low distortion are
the main requirements. The device is a single
operator available in a Flat-8 hermetic ceramic
package, saving board space as well as providing
excellent thermal and dynamic performance.

Latch-up immunity
1. All voltage values are measured with respect to the ground pin.
2. Differential voltage is the non-inverting input terminal with respect to the inverting input terminal.
3. The magnitude of input and output voltage must never exceed V
CC
+0.3 V.
4. Short-circuits can cause excessive heating. Destructive dissipation can result from short-circuits on all
amplifiers.
5. Human body model: a 100 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged through a
1.5 kΩ resistor between two pins of the device. This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations
while the other pins are floating.
6. This is a minimum value.
Machine model: a 200 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged directly between
two pins of the device with no external series resistor (internal resistor < 5Ω). This is done for all couples of
connected pin combinations while the other pins are floating.
7. Charged device model: all pins and package are charged together to the specified voltage and then
discharged directly to ground through only one pin.
