GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8264 is a 4-channel, linear-in-dB, general-purpose variable gain amplifier (VGA) with a preamplifier (preamp), and a flexible differential output buffer. Intended for a broad range of applications, dc coupling combined with wide bandwidth makes this amplifier a very good pulse processor.
