GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9623 is one of a family of very high speed and wide
bandwidth amplifiers utilizing a voltage feedback architecture.
These amplifiers define a new level of performance for voltage
feedback amplifiers, especially in the categories of large signal
bandwidth, slew rate, settling, low distortion, and low noise.

Other members of the AD962X amplifier family are the
AD9621 (G = +1), AD9622 (G = +2), and the AD9624
(G = +6). A separate data sheet is available from Analog
Devices for each model. Each generic device has been designed
for a different minimum stable gain setting, allowing users flex-
ibility in optimizing system performance. Dynamic performance
specifications such as slew rate, settling time, and distortion vary
from model to model. The table below summarizes key perfor-

ance inputs and low input noise current more common to volt-
age feedback architectures, the AD9623 offers performance not
previously available in a monolithic operational amplifier.
