The LT ® 1207 is a dual version of the LT1206 high speed
current feedback amplifier. Like the LT1206, each CFA in
the dual has excellent video characteristics: 60MHz bandwidth, 250mA minimum output drive current, 400V/µs
minimum slew rate, low differential gain (0.02% typ) and
low differential phase (0.17° typ). The LT1207 includes a
pin for an optional compensation network which stabilizes the amplifier for heavy capacitive loads. Both amplifiers have thermal and current limit circuits which protect
against fault conditions. These capabilities make the LT1207
well suited for driving difficult loads such as cables in video
or digital communication systems.

Operation is fully specified from ±5V to ±15V supplies.
Supply current is typically 20mA per amplifier. Two
micropower shutdown controls place each amplifier in a
high impedance low current mode, dropping supply
current to 200µA per amplifier. For reduced bandwidth
applications, supply current can be lowered by adding a
resistor in series with the Shutdown pin.
The LT1207 is manufactured on Linear Technology's
complementary bipolar process and is available in a low
thermal resistance 16-lead SO package.

The ● denotes specifications which apply for 0°C ≤ TA ≤ 70°C.
Note 1: Applies to short circuits to ground only. A short circuit between
the output and either supply may permanently damage the part when
operated on supplies greater than ±10V.
Note 2: Commercial grade parts are designed to operate over the
temperature range of – 40°C to 85°C but are neither tested nor guaranteed
beyond 0°C to 70°C. Industrial grade parts tested over – 40°C to 85°C are
available on special request. Consult factory.
Note 3: Thermal resistance θJA varies from 40°C/W to 60°C/W depending
upon the amount of PC board metal attached to the device. θJA is specified
for a 2500mm2 test board covered with 2oz copper on both sides.
Note 4: RSHDN is connected between the Shutdown pin and ground.
Note 5: Slew rate is measured at ±5V on a ±10V output signal while
operating on ±15V supplies with RF = 1.5k, RG = 1.5k and RL = 400Ω.
Note 6: NTSC composite video with an output level of 2V.

The LT1207 is a dual current feedback amplifier with high
output current drive capability. The device is stable with
large capacitive loads and can easily supply the high
currents required by capacitive loads. The amplifier will
drive low impedance loads such as cables with excellent
linearity at high frequencies.
line when the response has 0.5dB to 5dB of peaking. The
curves stop where the response has more than 5dB of
peaking.
For resistive loads, the COMP pin should be left open (see
section on capacitive loads).
Capacitive Loads
Feedback Resistor Selection
The optimum value for the feedback resistors is a function
of the operating conditions of the device, the load impedance and the desired flatness of response. The Typical AC
Performance tables give the values which result in the
highest 0.1dB and 0.5dB bandwidths for various resistive
loads and operating conditions. If this level of flatness is
not required, a higher bandwidth can be obtained by use
of a lower feedback resistor. The characteristic curves of
Bandwidth vs Supply Voltage indicate feedback resistors
for peaking up to 5dB. These curves use a solid line when
the response has less than 0.5dB of peaking and a dashed
8
Each amplifier in the LT1207 includes an optional compensation network for driving capacitive loads. This network eliminates most of the output stage peaking associated with capacitive loads, allowing the frequency response to be flattened. Figure 1 shows the effect of the
network on a 200pF load. Without the optional compensation, there is a 5dB peak at 40MHz caused by the effect of
the capacitance on the output stage. Adding a 0.01µF
bypass capacitor between the output and the COMP pins
connects the compensation and completely eliminates the
peaking. A lower value feedback resistor can now be used,
resulting in a response which is flat to 0.35dB to 30MHz.

typically 100µA. Each Shutdown pin is referenced to the
positive supply through an internal bias circuit (see the
Simplified Schematic). An easy way to force shutdown is
to use open drain (collector) logic. The circuit shown in
Figure 2 uses a 74C904 buffer to interface between 5V
logic and the LT1207. The switching time between the
active and shutdown states is less than 1µs. A 24k pull-up
resistor speeds up the turn-off time and insures that the
amplifier is completely turned off. Because the pin is
referenced to the positive supply, the logic used should
have a breakdown voltage of greater than the positive
supply voltage. No other circuitry is necessary as the
internal circuit limits the Shutdown pin current to about
500µA. Figure 3 shows the resulting waveforms.
The network has the greatest effect for CL in the range of
0pF to 1000pF. The graph of Maximum Capacitive Load vs
Feedback Resistor can be used to select the appropriate
value of the feedback resistor. The values shown are for
0.5dB and 5dB peaking at a gain of 2 with no resistive load.
This is a worst-case condition, as the amplifier is more stable
at higher gains and with some resistive load in parallel with
the capacitance. Also shown is the –3dB bandwidth with the
suggested feedback resistor vs the load capacitance.

Although the optional compensation works well with
capacitive loads, it simply reduces the bandwidth when it
is connected with resistive loads. For instance, with a 30Ω
load, the bandwidth drops from 55MHz to 35MHz when
the compensation is connected. Hence, the compensation
was made optional. To disconnect the optional compensation, leave the COMP pin open.

Each amplifier has a separate Shutdown pin which can be
used to either turn off the amplifier, which reduces the
amplifier supply current to less than 200µA, or to control
the supply current in normal operation.
The supply current in each amplifier is controlled by the
current flowing out of the Shutdown pin. When the Shutdown pin is open or driven to the positive supply, the
amplifier is shut down. In the shutdown mode, the output
looks like a 40pF capacitor and the supply current is

If the shutdown feature is not used, the Shutdown pins
must be connected to ground or V –.

The amplifier’s supply current will be approximately 40
times the current in the Shutdown pin. The voltage across
the resistor in this condition is V + – 3VBE. For example, a
60k resistor will set the amplifier’s supply current to 10mA
with VS = ±15V.
The photos (Figures 4a and 4b) show the effect of reducing
the quiescent supply current on the large-signal response.
The quiescent current can be reduced to 5mA in the
inverting configuration without much change in response.
In noninverting mode, however, the slew rate is reduced
as the quiescent current is reduced.
and for higher gains in the noninverting mode, the signal
amplitude on the input pins is small and the overall slew
rate is that of the output stage. The input stage slew rate
is related to the quiescent current and will be reduced as
the supply current is reduced. The output slew rate is set
by the value of the feedback resistors and the internal
capacitance. Larger feedback resistors will reduce the
slew rate as will lower supply voltages, similar to the way
the bandwidth is reduced. The photos (Figures 5a, 5b and
5c) show the large-signal response of the LT1207 or
various gain configurations. The slew rate varies from
860V/µs for a gain of 1, to 1400V/µs for a gain of – 1.
When the LT1207 is used to drive capacitive loads, the
available output current can limit the overall slew rate. In
the fastest configuration, the LT1207 is capable of a slew
rate of over 1V/ns. The current required to slew a capacitor

Capacitance on the Inverting Input
Current feedback amplifiers require resistive feedback
from the output to the inverting input for stable operation.
Take care to minimize the stray capacitance between the
output and the inverting input. Capacitance on the inverting input to ground will cause peaking in the frequency
response (and overshoot in the transient response), but it
does not degrade the stability of the amplifier.

10,000pF would require 10A! The photo (Figure 6) shows
the large-signal behavior with CL = 10,000pF. The slew
rate is about 60V/µs, determined by the current limit of
600mA.

Differential Input Signal Swing
The differential input swing is limited to about ±6V by an
ESD protection device connected between the inputs. In
normal operation, the differential voltage between the
input pins is small, so this clamp has no effect; however,
in the shutdown mode the differential swing can be the
same as the input swing. The clamp voltage will then set
the maximum allowable input voltage. To allow for some
margin, it is recommended that the input signal be less
than ±5V when the device is shut down.
The LT1207 will operate from single or split supplies from
±5V (10V total) to ±15V (30V total). It is not necessary to
use equal value split supplies, however the offset voltage
and inverting input bias current will change. The offset
voltage changes about 500µV per volt of supply mismatch. The inverting bias current can change as much as
5µA per volt of supply mismatch, though typically the
change is less than 0.5µA per volt.
Thermal Considerations
Each amplifier in the LT1207 includes a separate thermal
shutdown circuit which protects against excessive internal (junction) temperature. If the junction temperature
exceeds the protection threshold, the amplifier will begin
cycling between normal operation and an off state. The
cycling is not harmful to the part. The thermal cycling
occurs at a slow rate, typically 10ms to several seconds,
which depends on the power dissipation and the thermal
time constants of the package and heat sinking. Raising
the ambient temperature until the device begins thermal
shutdown gives a good indication of how much margin
there is in the thermal design.
Heat flows away from the amplifier through the package’s
copper lead frame. Heat sinking is accomplished by using
the heat spreading capabilities of the PC board and its
copper traces. Experiments have shown that the heat
spreading copper layer does not need to be electrically
connected to the tab of the device. The PCB material can
be very effective at transmitting heat between the pad area
attached to the tab of the device and a ground or power
plane layer either inside or on the opposite side of the
board. Although the actual thermal resistance of the PCB
material is high, the length/area ratio of the thermal

resistance between the layer is small. Copper board stiffeners and plated through holes can also be used to spread
the heat generated by the device.
Table 1 lists thermal resistance for several different board
sizes and copper areas. All measurements were taken in
still air on 3/32" FR-4 board with 2oz copper. This data can
be used as a rough guideline in estimating thermal resistance. The thermal resistance for each application will be
affected by thermal interactions with other components as
well as board size and shape.

The junction temperature can be calculated from the

where:
The maximum junction temperature for the LT1207 is
150°C, so the heat sinking capability of the board is
adequate for the application.
If the copper area on the PC board is reduced to 280mm2
the thermal resistance increases to 60°C/W and the junction temperature becomes:
TJ = (1.674W)(60°C/W) + 70°C = 170°C
Which is above the maximum junction temperature indicating that the heat sinking capability of the board is
inadequate and should be increased.
