external pull-down resistor to ground. Figure 4 shows an AC-
coupled, gain of +2, +5V single supply circuit configuration.
Video Performance
For good video performance, an amplifier is required to
maintain the same output impedance and the same
frequency response as DC levels are changed at the output.
This is especially difficult when driving a standard video load
of 150Ω, because of the change in output current with DC
level. Previously, good differential gain could only be
achieved by running high idle currents through the output
transistors (to reduce variations in output impedance.)
These currents were typically comparable to the entire 4mA
supply current of each EL5197 amplifier. Special circuitry
has been incorporated in the EL5197 to reduce the variation
of output impedance with current output. This results in dG
and dP specifications of 0.03% and 0.04°, while driving
150Ω at a gain of 2.
Video performance has also been measured with a 500Ω
load at a gain of +1. Under these conditions, the EL5197 has
dG and dP specifications of 0.03% and 0.04°, respectively.
Output Drive Capability
In spite of its low 4mA of supply current, the EL5197 is
capable of providing a minimum of ±95mA of output current
with a minimum of ±95mA of output drive.
Driving Cables and Capacitive Loads
When used as a cable driver, double termination is always
recommended for reflection-free performance. For those
applications, the back-termination series resistor will
decouple the EL5197 from the cable and allow extensive
capacitive drive. However, other applications may have high
capacitive loads without a back-termination resistor. In these
applications, a small series resistor (usually between 5Ω and
50Ω) can be placed in series with the output to eliminate
most peaking.

Current Limiting
The EL5197 has no internal current-limiting circuitry. If the
output is shorted, it is possible to exceed the Absolute
Maximum Rating for output current or power dissipation,
potentially resulting in the destruction of the device.
Power Dissipation
With the high output drive capability of the EL5197, it is
possible to exceed the 125°C Absolute Maximum junction
temperature under certain very high load current conditions.
