The CA3160 is an operational amplifier that combines the advantages of both CMOS and bipolar
transistors on a monolithic chip. The CA3160 series are frequency compensated versions of the popular CA3130 series.
Gate protected P-Channel MOSFET (PMOS)
transistors are used in the input circuit to provide very high input impedance, very low input current, and exceptional speed performance. The use of PMOS field effect
transistors in the input stage results in common-mode input voltage capability down to 0.5V below the negative supply terminal, an important attribute in single supply applications.
A complementary symmetry MOS (CMOS)
transistor-pair, capable of swinging the output voltage to within 10mV of either supply voltage terminal (at very high values of load impedance), is employed as the output circuit.
The CA3160 Series circuits operate at supply voltages ranging from 5V to 16...
