General Description

The EL2126C is an ultra-low noise, wideband amplifier that runs on half the supply current of competitive parts. It is intended for use in systems such as ultrasound imaging where a very small signal needs to be amplified by a large amount without adding significant noise. Its low power dissipation enables it to be packaged in the tiny SOT23 package, which further helps systems where many input channels create both space and power dissipation problems.
