I need a rail-to-rail I/O OpAmp, 5V Vcc is fine, slow speed setting a
current mirror.
What would you guys in the discrete world recommend as being
well-behaved, no peculiarities, etc? (And readily available ;-)
Thanks!

It has fast local feedback wrapped round the output stage, so that its output impedance doesn't climb nearly as fast as most RROs.

That's how I design them on-chip... local feedback cures that transconductance nastiness. ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson | mens | | Analog Innovations | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | San Tan Valley, AZ 85142 Skype: skypeanalog | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine.

AD8565 isn't cheap, but it's a remarkable part. 16 volts RRIO, 250 mA peak out, comes off the rails clean in a microsecond, c-load stable. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc jlarkin att highlandtechnology dott com http://www.highlandtechnology.com

I sent the client (in Taiwan) a solution using the AD8605 that Phil suggested (and I could find a model for). I'll provide him also with all the alternates... this is a slow loop so I think any will do. Thanks again. ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson | mens | | Analog Innovations | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | San Tan Valley, AZ 85142 Skype: skypeanalog | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine.

The single MCP6291 in SOT23 is around 40 cents in quantity. (I like singles, usually.) Somewhere there ought to be a really cheap workhorse opamp, ten cents maybe. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc jlarkin att highlandtechnology dott com http://www.highlandtechnology.com
