The LM7171BIN from Texas Instruments is a high-speed voltage feedback operational amplifier designed for precision applications requiring wide bandwidth and fast slew rates. Part of the VIP™ III series, this obsolete but robust IC delivers exceptional performance with a 200 MHz gain bandwidth product, 220 MHz -3dB bandwidth, and an ultra-fast 4100V/µs slew rate, making it ideal for high-frequency signal processing. Operating over a 5.5V to 36V supply range, it features low input bias current (2.7 µA) and low offset voltage (200 µV), ensuring accuracy in sensitive circuits. Packaged in an 8-pin DIP (Through Hole), the LM7171BIN is suited for prototyping and industrial applications where reliability is critical.
The LM7171BIN remains a standout choice for engineers needing high-speed, high-precision amplification despite its obsolete status. Its combination of wide bandwidth, fast slew rate, and robust output drive makes it indispensable in video, RF, and industrial applications. While newer alternatives exist, the LM7171BIN’s reliability and through-hole packaging ensure continued relevance in legacy designs and prototyping environments. Texas Instruments’ VIP™ III architecture underscores its legacy as a high-performance op-amp for demanding analog systems.
