On all operational amplifier data sheets, the specifications listed on the front page are for highly selected, expensive grades, while the specs for the low cost grades are buried deep in the data sheet. The LT97 does not have any selected grades, the outstanding specifications shown in the Features section are for its only grade. The design effort of the LT97 concentrated on optimizing the performance of all precision specs at only µa of supply current. Typical values are µv offset voltage, pa bias and offset currents,.µv/ C and.pa/ C drift. Common mode and power supply rejections, voltage gain are typically in excess of 8dB. All parameters that are important for precision, low power op amps have been optimized. Consequently, using the LT97 error budget calculations in most applications is unnecessary., LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

LT97 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION W The LT97 is pin compatible to and directly replaces such precision op amps as the OP-7, OP-77, AD77, OP-97, OP- 77, LM7 and LT with improved price/performance. Compatibility includes externally nulling the offset voltage, as all of the above devices are trimmed with a potentiometer between Pin and Pin 8 and the wiper tied to V. The simple difference amplifier can be used to illustrate the all-around excellence of the LT97. The k input resistance is selected to be large enough compared to input signal source resistance. Simultaneously, the k resistors should not dominate the precision and noise error budget. Assuming perfect matching between the four resistors, the following table summarizes the input referred performance obtained using the LT97 and other popular, low cost precision op amps. Input offset voltage can be adjusted over a ±µv range with a k potentiometer. The LT97 is internally compensated for unity gain stability. As shown on the Capacitive Load Handling plot, the LT97 is stable with any capacitive load. However, the overcompensation capacitor, C S, can be used to reduce overshoot with heavy capacitive loads, to narrow noise bandwidth or to stabilize circuits with gain in the feedback loop. ±7V Common Mode Range Difference Amplifier Frequency Compensation and Optional Offset Nulling IN IN k k k V 7 LT97 k POT LT97 8 7 C S V k V V LT97 F LT97 F Guaranteed Perfomance,, PARAMETER LT97CN8 OP-77GP AD77JN OP-77GP OP-97FP NITS Error Terms V OS Max 9 7 µv I OS Max k 7 7 µv Gain Min, V Out µv CMRR, Min, ±V In 9 µv PSRR, Min, ±% 9 9 9 9 µv Sum of All Error Terms 98 77 µv.hz to Hz Noise Voltage Noise..8..8. µvp-p Typ Current Noise k..7.7.7. µvp-p Typ Resistor Noise..... µvp-p Typ RMS sum.7.9.7 µvp-p Drift with Temp TCV OS Max.. µv/ C TCI OS Max k.... µv/ C Sum of Drift Terms.... µv/ C Supply Current Max.. ma 9
LT97 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION W The availability of the compensation terminal permits the use of feedforward frequency compensation to enhance slew rate. The voltage follower feedforward scheme bypasses the amplifier s gain stages and slews at nearly V/µs. The inputs of the LT97 are protected with back-to-back diodes. In the voltage follower configuration, when the input is driven by a fast, large signal pulse (>V), the input protection diodes effectively short the output to the input during slewing, and a current, limited only by the output short circuit protection will flow through the diodes. The use of a feedback resistor, as shown in the voltage follower feedforward diagram, is recommended because this resistor keeps the current below the short circuit limit, resulting in faster recovery and settling of the output.
