The wide input common-mode range is achieved with a high frequency on-board charge pump. This technique eliminates the crossover distortion and limited CMRR imposed by competing technologies. The LTC5 is a C-Load TM of amp, enabling it to drive any capacitive load. The LTC5 shares the excellent DC performance specs of LTC s other zero-drift amplifiers. Typical offset voltage is µv and typical offset drift is nv/ C. CMRR and PSRR are db and db and open-loop gain is db. Input noise voltage is µv P-P from.hz to Hz. Gain-bandwidth product is.7mhz and slew rate is.5v/µs, all with supply current of.ma max over temperature. The LTC5 also includes a shutdown feature which drops supply current to µa and puts the output stage in a high impedance state. The LTC5 is available in 8-pin PDIP and 8-pin SO packages and uses the standard op amp pinout, allowing it to be a plug-in replacement for many standard op amps., LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

LTC5 O S I FOR W ATIO Rail-to-Rail Operation The LTC5 is a rail-to-rail input common-mode range, rail-to-rail output swing op amp. Most CMOS op amps, including the entire LTC zero-drift amplifier line, and even a few bipolar op amps, can and do, claim rail-to-rail output swing. One obvious use for such a device is to provide a unity-gain buffer for V to 5V signals running from a single 5V power supply. This is not possible with the vast majority of so-called rail-to-rail op amps; although the output can swing to both rails, the negative input (which is connected to the output) will exceed the common-mode input range of the device at some point (generally about.5v below the positive supply), opening the feedback loop and causing unpredictable and sometimes bizarre behavior. The LTC5 is an exception to this rule. It features both rail-to-rail output swing and rail-to-rail input commonmode range (CMR); the input CMR actually extends beyond either rail by about.v. This allows unity-gain buffer circuits to operate with any input signal within the power supply rails; input signal swing is limited only by the output stage swing into the load. Additionally, signals occurring at either rail (power supply current sensing, for example) can be amplified without any special circuitry. Internal Charge Pump The LTC5 achieves its rail-to-rail input CMR by using a charge pump to generate an internal voltage approximately V higher than V. The input stages of the op amp are run from this higher voltage, making signals at V appear to be V below the front end s power supply (Figure ). The charge pump is contained entirely within the LTC5; no external components are required. About µv P-P of residual charge pump switching noise will be present on the output of the LTC5. This feedthrough is at.7mhz, higher than the gain-bandwidth of the LTC5, and will generally not cause any problems. Very sensitive applications can reduce this feedthrough by connecting a capacitor from the CP pin (pin 8) to V (pin 7); a.µf capacitor will reduce charge pump feedthrough to negligible levels. The LTC5 includes an internal diode from pin 8 to pin 7 to prevent external parasitic capacitance from lengthening start-up CP (PIN 8).µF* IN IN V CC V *OPTIONAL EXTERNAL CAPACITOR TO REDCE CHARGE PMP FEEDTHROGH INPT INTERNAL CHARGE PMP V CC (PIN 7) OT Figure. LTC5 Internal Block Diagram OTPT RAIL TO RAIL 5 F time. This diode can stand short-term peak currents of about 5mA, allowing it to quickly charge external capacitance to ground or V. Large capacitors (>µf) should not be connected between pin 8 and ground or V to prevent excessive diode current from flowing at start-up. The LTC5 can withstand continuous short circuits between pin 8 and V ; however, short circuiting pin 8 to ground or V will cause large amounts of current to flow through the diode, destroying the LTC5. Don t do it. Output Drive The LTC5 features an enhanced output stage that can sink and source ma with a single 5V supply while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing under most loading conditions. The output stage can be modeled as a perfect rail-to-rail voltage source with a resistor in series with it; this open-loop output resistance limits the output swing by creating a resistor divider with the output load. The output resistance drops as total power supply voltage increases, as shown in the typical performance curves. It is typically Ω with a single 5V supply, allowing a.v output swing into a k resistor with a single 5V supply. V CC (PIN 7) LTC5 OTPT DRIVER R OT OT (PIN ) Ω AT 5V SPPLY R LOAD 5 F Figure.

LTC5 O S Compensation/Bandwidth Limiting The LTC5 is unity-gain stable with capacitive loads up to pf. Larger capacitive loads can be driven by externally compensating the LTC5. Adding pf between COMP (pin 5) and OT (pin ) allows capacitive loading of up to µf;.µf between pins 5 and allows the LTC5 to drive infinite capacitive load (Figure ). 8 7 V LTC5 V 5 N8* I FOR W C C *OPTIONAL DIODES TO PREVENT LATCH-P WITH C C > µf OTPT N8* ATIO 5 F Figure. Output Compensation Connection Large compensation capacitors can also be used to limit the bandwidth of the LTC5. With.µF from pin 5 to pin, the LTC5 s gain-bandwidth product is reduced from 7kHz to around Hz. Note that compensation capacitors greater than µf can cause latch-up under severe output fault conditions; this can be prevented by clamping pin 5 to each supply with standard signal diodes, as shown in Figure. Shutdown The LTC5 includes a shutdown pin (pin ). When this pin is at V, the LTC5 operates normally. An internal µa pull-up keeps the pin high if it is left floating. When pin is pulled low, the part enters shutdown mode; supply current drops to µa, all internal clocking stops and the output enters a high impedance state. During shutdown the voltage at the CP pin (pin 8) will drop to.5v below V. When pin is brought high again, about µs will elapse before the charge pump regains full voltage. During this time the LTC5 will operate normally, but the input CMR may not include V. Pin is compatible with CMOS logic running from the same supply as the LTC5. Additionally, the input trip levels allow ground referenced CMOS logic signals to interface directly to pin when the LTC5 is running from ±5V or ±V supplies. The internal µa pull-up also allows pin to interface with open-collector/ open-drain devices or discrete transistors. The high impedance output in shutdown allows several LTC5s to be connected together as a MX, with their outputs tied in parallel and the active channel selected by using the shutdown pins. Deselected (shutdown) channels will go to high impedance at the outputs, preventing them from fighting with the active channel. This works best when the individual LTC5s are connected in noninverting feedback configurations to prevent the feedback resistors from passing signals through deselected channels. See the Typical Applications section for a circuit example. Zero-Drift Operation The LTC5 is a zero-drift op amp. Like other LTC zerodrift op amps, it features virtually error-free DC performance, very little drift over time and temperature, and very low noise at low frequencies. The internal nulling clock runs at about.khz (the charge pump frequency of.7mhz divided by 8) and is synchronized to the internal charge pump to prevent beat frequencies from appearing at the output. The self-nulling circuit constantly corrects the input offset voltage, keeping it typically below ±µv over the entire input common-mode range. This has the added benefit of providing exceptional CMRR and PSRR at low frequenciesfar better than competing railto-rail op amps. Because it uses a sampling front end, the LTC5 will exhibit aliasing behavior and clock noise at frequencies near the internal.khz sampling frequency. The LTC5 includes an internal anti-aliasing circuit to keep these error terms to a minimum. As a rule, alias frequencies will be down by (8dB A CLG ) in most standard amplifier configurations, where A CLG is the closed-loop gain of the LTC5 circuit. Clock noise is also dependent on closedloop gain; it will generally consist of spikes of about µv in amplitude, input referred. In general, these error terms are too small to affect most applications. For a more detailed explanation of zero-drift amplifier behavior, see the LTC5/LTC5 data sheet.
