It is designed to have both low voltage and low current noise (. nv/ Hz typical and. pa/ Hz typical) while operating at the lowest quiescent supply current (7 ma @ ± V) among today s high speed, low noise op amps. The AD operates over a wide range of supply voltages from ±. V to ± V, as well as from single V supplies, making it ideal for high speed, low power instruments. An output disable pin allows further reduction of the quiescent supply current to. ma. CONNECTION DIAGRAM LOGIC REFERENCE IN +IN 4 AD 7 DISABLE V OUT C COMP Figure. SOIC- (R-) and MSOP- (RM-) The AD allows the user to choose the gain bandwidth product that best suits the application. With a single capacitor, the user can compensate the AD for the desired gain with little trade-off in bandwidth. The AD is a well-behaved amplifier that settles to.% in ns for a V step. It has a fast overload recovery of ns. The AD is stable over temperature with low input offset voltage drift and input bias current drift,. μv/ C and na/ C, respectively. The AD is also capable of driving a 7 Ω line with ± V video signals. The AD is both technically superior and priced considerably less than comparable amps drawing much higher quiescent current. The AD is a high speed, general-purpose amplifier, ideal for a wide variety of gain configurations and can be used throughout a signal processing chain and in control loops. The AD is available in both standard -lead SOIC and MSOP packages in the industrial temperature range of 4 C to + C.

Current-limiting resistors are not used to preserve the low noise. If a differential input exceeds ±. V, the input current should be limited to ± ma. Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the AD is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature. The maximum safe junction temperature for plastic encapsulated devices is determined by the glass transition temperature of the plastic, approximately C. Temporarily exceeding this limit can cause a shift in parametric performance due to a change in the stresses exerted on the die by the package. Exceeding a junction temperature of 7 C for an extended period can result in device failure. While the AD is internally short-circuit protected, this can not be sufficient to guarantee that the maximum junction temperature ( C) is not exceeded under all conditions. To ensure proper operation, it is necessary to observe the maximum power derating curves. MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION (W).... -LEAD MSOP -LEAD SOIC. 4 4 7 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE ( C) Figure.

AD APPLICATIONS The typical voltage feedback op amp is frequency stabilized with a fixed internal capacitor, CINTERNAL, using dominant pole compensation. To a first-order approximation, voltage feedback op amps have a fixed gain bandwidth product. For example, if its db bandwidth is MHz for a gain of G = +; at a gain of G = +, its bandwidth is only about MHz. The AD is a voltage feedback op amp with a minimal CINTERNAL of about. pf. By adding an external compensation capacitor, CC, the user can circumvent the fixed gain bandwidth limitation of other voltage feedback op amps. Unlike the typical op amp with fixed compensation, the AD allows the user to: Maximize the amplifier bandwidth for closed-loop gains between and, avoiding the usual loss of bandwidth and slew rate. Optimize the trade-off between bandwidth and phase margin for a particular application. Match bandwidth in gain blocks with different noise gains, such as when designing differential amplifiers (as shown in Figure ). OPEN-LOOP 9 7 4 C C = pf C C = pf (B) (A) k k k M M M G G (B) (A) (C) (C) Figure. Simplified Diagram of Open-Loop Gain and Phase Response Figure is the AD gain and phase plot that has been simplified for instructional purposes. Arrow A in Figure shows a bandwidth of about MHz and a phase margin at about when the desired closed-loop gain is G = + and the value chosen for the external compensation capacitor is CC = pf. If the gain is changed to G = + and CC is fixed at pf, then (as expected for a typical op amp) the bandwidth is 9 4 PHASE (Degrees) - degraded to about MHz and the phase margin increases to 9 (Arrow B). However, by reducing CC to pf, the bandwidth and phase margin return to about MHz and (Arrow C), respectively. In addition, the slew rate is dramatically increased, as it roughly varies with the inverse of CC. COMPENSATION CAPACITANCE (pf) 9 7 4 4 7 9 NOISE GAIN (V/V) Figure 9. Suggested Compensation Capacitance vs. Gain for Maintaining db Peaking Table and Figure 9 provide recommended values of compensation capacitance at various gains and the corresponding slew rate, bandwidth, and noise. Note that the value of the compensation capacitor depends on the circuit noise gain, not the voltage gain. As shown in Figure, the noise gain, GN, of an op amp gain block is equal to its noninverting voltage gain, regardless of whether it is actually used for inverting or noninverting gain. Thus, Noninverting GN = RF/RG + Inverting GN = RF/RG + R S + AD C COMP G = G N = + R F kω R G 49Ω R G 49Ω NONINVERTING INVERTING Figure.

Output Noise (AD with Resistors) (nv/ Hz) With the AD, a variety of trade-offs can be made to finetune its dynamic performance. Sometimes more bandwidth or slew rate is needed at a particular gain. Reducing the compensation capacitance, as illustrated in Figure 7, increases the bandwidth and peaking due to a decrease in phase margin. On the other hand, if more stability is needed, increasing the compensation capacitor decreases the bandwidth while increasing the phase margin. As with all high speed amplifiers, parasitic capacitance and inductance around the amplifier can affect its dynamic response. Often, the input capacitance (due to the op amp itself, as well as the PC board) has a significant effect. The feedback resistance, together with the input capacitance, can contribute to a loss of phase margin, thereby affecting the high frequency response, as shown in Figure 4. A capacitor (CF) in parallel with the feedback resistor can compensate for this phase loss. Additionally, any resistance in series with the source creates a pole with the input capacitance (as well as dampen high frequency resonance due to package and board inductance and capacitance), the effect of which is shown in Figure. It must also be noted that increasing resistor values increases the overall noise of the amplifier and that reducing the feedback resistor value increases the load on the output stage, thus increasing distortion (see Figure ). USING THE DISABLE FEATURE When Pin (DISABLE) is higher than Pin (LOGIC REFERENCE) by approximately V or more, the part is enabled. When Pin is brought down to within about. V of Pin, the part is disabled. See Table for exact disable and enable voltage levels. If the disable feature is not used, Pin can be tied to VS or a logic high source, and Pin can be tied to ground or logic low. Alternatively, if Pin and Pin are not connected, the part is in an enabled state. Rev. F Page of
AD THEORY OF OPERATION The AD is fabricated on the second generation of Analog Devices proprietary High Voltage extra-fast Complementary Bipolar (XFCB) process, which enables the construction of PNP and NPN transistors with similar fts in the GHz region. The transistors are dielectrically isolated from the substrate (and each other), eliminating the parasitic and latch-up problems caused by junction isolation. It also reduces nonlinear capacitance (a source of distortion) and allows a higher transistor, ft, for a given quiescent current. The supply current is trimmed, which results in less part-to-part variation of bandwidth, slew rate, distortion, and settling time. As shown in Figure, the AD input stage consists of an NPN differential pair in which each transistor operates at a. ma collector current. This allows the input devices a high transconductance; thus, the AD has a low input noise of. nv/ Hz @ khz. The input stage drives a folded cascode that consists of a pair of PNP transistors. The folded cascode and current mirror provide a differential-to-single-ended conversion of signal current. This current then drives the high impedance node (Pin ), where the CC external capacitor is connected. The output stage preserves this high impedance with a current gain of, so that the AD can maintain a high open-loop gain even when driving heavy loads. Two internal diode clamps across the inputs (Pin and Pin ) protect the input transistors from large voltages that could otherwise cause emitter-base breakdown, which would result in degradation of offset voltage and input bias current. +IN IN C INTERNAL.pF OUTPUT PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS As with all high speed op amps, achieving optimum performance from the AD requires careful attention to PC board layout. Particular care must be exercised to minimize lead lengths between the ground leads of the bypass capacitors and between the compensation capacitor and the negative supply. Otherwise, lead inductance can influence the frequency response and even cause high frequency oscillations. Use of a multilayer printed circuit board, with an internal ground plane, reduces ground noise and enables a compact component arrangement. Due to the relatively high impedance of Pin and low values of the compensation capacitor, a guard ring is recommended. The guard ring is simply a PC trace that encircles Pin and is connected to the output, Pin, which is at the same potential as Pin. This serves two functions. It shields Pin from any local circuit noise generated by surrounding circuitry. It also minimizes stray capacitance, which would tend to otherwise reduce the bandwidth. An example of a guard ring layout is shown in Figure. Also shown in Figure, the compensation capacitor is located immediately adjacent to the edge of the AD package, spanning Pin 4 and Pin. This capacitor must be a high quality surfacemount COG or NPO ceramic. The use of leaded capacitors is not recommended. The high frequency bypass capacitor(s) should be located immediately adjacent to the supplies, Pin 4 and Pin 7. To achieve the shortest possible lead length at the inverting input, the feedback resistor RF is located beneath the board and spans the distance from the output, Pin, to inverting input Pin. The return node of Resistor RG should be situated as close as possible to the return node of the negative supply bypass capacitor connected to Pin 4.

AD DRIVING -BIT ADCs Low noise and adjustable compensation make the AD especially suitable as a buffer/driver for high resolution ADCs. As seen in Figure 9, the harmonic distortion is better than 9 dbc at frequencies between khz and MHz. This is an advantage for complex waveforms that contain high frequency information, because the phase and gain integrity of the sampled waveform can be preserved throughout the conversion process. The increase in loop gain results in improved output regulation and lower noise when the converter input changes state during a sample. This advantage is particularly apparent when using -bit high resolution ADCs with high sampling rates. Figure shows a typical ADC driver configuration. The AD is in an inverting gain of 7., fc is khz, and its output voltage is V p-p. The results are listed in Table 7. Ω 9Ω R G Ω +V + AD C C pf V pf R F.kΩ IN HI IN HI +V AD7 7kSPS Figure.

If pairs of internally compensated op amps are configured as inverter and follower, the noise gain of the inverter is higher than that of the follower section, resulting in an imbalance in the frequency response (see Figure ). A better solution takes advantage of the external compensation feature of the AD. By reducing the CCOMP value of the inverter, its bandwidth can be increased to match that of the follower, avoiding compromises in gain bandwidth and phase delay. The inverting and noninverting bandwidths can be closely matched using the compensation feature, thus minimizing distortion. Figure illustrates an inverter-follower driver circuit operating at a gain of, using individually compensated ADs. The values of feedback and load resistors were selected to provide a total load of less than kω, and the equivalent resistances seen at each op amp s inputs were matched to minimize offset voltage and drift.

Most active filter literature provides resistor and capacitor values for various filters but neglects the effect of the op amp s finite bandwidth on filter performance; ideal filter response with infinite loop gain is implied. Unfortunately, real filters do not behave in this manner. Instead, they exhibit finite limits of attenuation, depending on the gain bandwidth of the active device. Good low-pass filter performance requires an op amp with high gain bandwidth for attenuation at high frequencies, and low noise and high dc gain for low frequency, pass-band performance. Figure shows the schematic of a -pole, low-pass active filter and lists typical component values for filters having a Besseltype response with a gain of and a gain of.

Frequency Response of the Filter Circuit of Figure for Two Different Gains DRIVING CAPACITIVE LOADS When the AD drives a capacitive load, the high frequency response can show excessive peaking before it rolls off. Two techniques can be used to improve stability at high frequency and reduce peaking. The first technique is to increase the compensation capacitor, CC, which reduces the peaking while maintaining gain flatness at low frequencies. The second technique is to add a resistor, RSNUB, in series between the output pin of the AD and the capacitive load, CL. Figure 7 shows the response of the AD when both CC and RSNU B used to reduce peaking. For a given CL, Figure 7 can be used to determine the value of RSNUB that maintains db of peaking in the frequency response. Note, however, that using RSNUB attenuates the low frequency output by a factor of RLOAD/(RSNU B - RLOAD). -9 Rev. F Page of
