hmm could be a dual driver or comparator. it's got two beefy output stages. I don't see any compensation capacitors so I don't think it is an op amp.

I think it might be some sort of ECL level shifter. using a multimeter to measure ESD diodes, I think this thing has two supply rails, one of them negative.
