GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Table 1. Micropower Op Amps
The AD8657 is a dual, precision, micropower, rail-to-rail
input/output (RRIO) amplifier optimized for low power and
wide operating supply voltage range applications.
Supply Voltage
Single
The AD8657 operates from 2.7 V up to 18 V with a typical
quiescent supply current of 18 μA. It uses the Analog Devices,
Inc., patented DigiTrim® trimming technique, which achieves
low offset voltage. The AD8657 also has high immunity to
electromagnetic interference.
The combination of low supply current, low offset voltage, very
low input bias current, wide supply range, and rail-to-rail input
and output makes the AD8657 ideal for current monitoring and
current loops in process and motor control applications. The
combination of precision specifications makes this device ideal
for dc gain and buffering of sensor front ends or high impedance
input sources in wireless or remote sensors or transmitters.
The AD8657 is specified over the extended industrial temperature range ( −40°C to +125°C) and is available in an 8-lead MSOP
package.

AD8657
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The AD8657 is a low power, rail-to-rail input and output
precision CMOS amplifier that operates over a wide supply
voltage range of 2.7 V to 18 V. This amplifier uses the Analog
Devices DigiTrim technique to achieve a higher degree of
precision than is available from other CMOS amplifiers. The
DigiTrim technique is a method of trimming the offset voltage
of an amplifier after assembly. The advantage of postpackage
trimming is that it corrects any shifts in offset voltage caused by
mechanical stresses of assembly.
The AD8657 also employs unique input and output stages to
achieve a rail-to-rail input and output range with a very low
supply current.
INPUT STAGE
Figure 62 shows the simplified schematic of the AD8657. The
input stage comprises two differential transistor pairs, an NMOS
pair (M1, M2) and a PMOS pair (M3, M4). The input commonmode voltage determines which differential pair turns on and is
more active than the other.
The PMOS differential pair is active when the input voltage
approaches and reaches the lower supply rail. The NMOS pair
is needed for input voltages up to and including the upper supply
rail. This topology allows the amplifier to maintain a wide
dynamic input voltage range and to maximize signal swing to
both supply rails.
For the majority of the input common-mode voltage range, the
PMOS differential pair is active. Differential pairs commonly
exhibit different offset voltages. The handoff from one pair to the
other creates a step-like characteristic that is visible in the VOS vs.
VCM graph (see Figure 4 and Figure 7). This is inherent in all railto-rail amplifiers that use the dual differential pair topology.
Therefore, always choose a common-mode voltage that does not
include the region of handoff from one input differential pair to
the other.
Additional steps in the VOS vs. VCM curves are also visible as the
input common-mode voltage approaches the power supply rails.
These changes are a result of the load transistors (M8, M9, M14,
and M15) running out of headroom. As the load transistors are
forced into the triode region of operation, the mismatch of their
drain impedances contributes to the offset voltage of the amplifier.
This problem is exacerbated at high temperatures due to the
decrease in the threshold voltage of the input transistors (see
Figure 8, Figure 9, Figure 11, and Figure 12 for typical performance data).
Current Source I1 drives the PMOS transistor pair. As the input
common-mode voltage approaches the upper rail, I1 is steered
away from the PMOS differential pair through the M5 transistor.
The bias voltage, VB1, controls the point where this transfer occurs.
M5 diverts the tail current into a current mirror consisting of the
M6 and M7 transistors. The output of the current mirror then
drives the NMOS pair. Note that the activation of this current
mirror causes a slight increase in supply current at high commonmode voltages (see Figure 22 and Figure 25 for more details).
The AD8657 achieves its high performance by using low voltage
MOS devices for its differential inputs. These low voltage MOS
devices offer excellent noise and bandwidth per unit of current.
Each differential input pair is protected by proprietary regulation
circuitry (not shown in the simplified schematic). The regulation circuitry consists of a combination of active devices that
maintain the proper voltages across the input pairs during normal
operation and passive clamping devices that protect the amplifier
during fast transients. However, these passive clamping devices
begin to forward bias as the common-mode voltage approaches
either power supply rail. This causes an increase in the input
bias current (see Figure 14 and Figure 17).
The input devices are also protected from large differential
input voltages by clamp diodes (D1 and D2). These diodes are
buffered from the inputs with two 10 kΩ resistors (R1 and R2).
The differential diodes turn on whenever the differential voltage
exceeds approximately 600 mV; in this condition, the differential
input resistance drops to 20 kΩ.
OUTPUT STAGE
The AD8657 features a complementary output stage consisting
of the M16 and M17 transistors. These transistors are configured
in Class AB topology and are biased by the voltage source, VB2.
This topology allows the output voltage to approach, within
millivolts, the supply rails, achieving a rail-to-rail output swing.
The output voltage is limited by the output impedance of the
transistors, which are low RON MOS devices. The output voltage
swing is a function of the load current and can be estimated using
the output voltage to the supply rail vs. load current plots (see
Figure 15, Figure 16, Figure 18, and Figure 19).

RAIL TO RAIL
Inverting Configuration
The AD8657 features rail-to-rail input and output with a supply
voltage from 2.7 V to 18 V. Figure 63 shows the input and output
waveforms of the AD8657 configured as a unity-gain buffer with
a supply voltage of ±9 V and a resistive load of 1 MΩ. With an
input voltage of ±9 V, the AD8657 allows the output to swing
very close to both rails. Additionally, it does not exhibit phase
reversal.
Figure 64 shows AD8657 in an inverting configuration with
a resistive load, RL, at the output. The actual load seen by the
amplifier is the parallel combination of the feedback resistor,
R2, and load, RL. Having a feedback resistor of 1 kΩ and a load
of 1 MΩ results in an equivalent load resistance of 999 Ω at the
output. In this condition, the AD8657 is incapable of driving
such a heavy load; therefore, its performance degrades greatly.
To avoid loading the output, use a larger feedback resistor, but
consider the resistor thermal noise effect on the overall circuit.

RESISTIVE LOAD
The feedback resistor alters the load resistance that an amplifier
sees. It is, therefore, important to be aware of the value of feedback resistors chosen for use with the AD8657. The AD8657 is
capable of driving resistive loads down to 100 kΩ. The following
two examples, inverting and noninverting configurations, show
how the feedback resistor changes the actual load resistance

COMPARATOR OPERATION
Op amps are designed to operate in a closed-loop configuration
with feedback from its output to its inverting input. Figure 66
shows the AD8657 configured as a voltage follower with an input
voltage that is always kept at midpoint of the power supplies.
The same configuration is applied to the unused channel. A1 and
A2 indicate the placement of ammeters to measure supply current.
ISY+ refers to the current flowing from the upper supply rail to
the op amp, and ISY− refers to the current flowing from the op
amp to the lower supply rail. As shown in Figure 67, as expected,
in normal operating condition, the total current flowing into the
op amp is equivalent to the total current flowing out of the op amp,

the differential input voltage exceeds approximately 600 mV; however, these diodes also allow a current path from the input to the
lower supply rail, thus resulting in an increase in the total supply
current of the system. As shown in Figure 70, both configurations
yield the same result. At 18 V of power supply, ISY+ remains at
36 μA per dual amplifier, but ISY− increases to 140 μA in magnitude per dual amplifier.

Figure 67. Supply Current vs. Supply Voltage (Voltage Follower)
In contrast to op amps, comparators are designed to work in an
open-loop configuration and to drive logic circuits. Although
op amps are different from comparators, occasionally an unused
section of a dual op amp is used as a comparator to save board
space and cost; however, this is not recommended.
Figure 68 and Figure 69 show the AD8657 configured as a comparator, with 100 kΩ resistors in series with the input pins. Any
unused channels are configured as buffers with the input voltage
kept at the midpoint of the power supplies. The AD8657 has input
devices that are protected from large differential input voltages
by Diode D1 and Diode D2 (refer to Figure 62). These diodes

Note that 100 kΩ resistors are used in series with the input of
the op amp. If smaller resistor values are used, the supply current of
the system increases much more. For more details on op amps as
comparators, refer to the AN-849 Application Note Using Op
Amps as Comparators.

EMI REJECTION RATIO
Circuit performance is often adversely affected by high frequency
electromagnetic interference (EMI). In the event where signal
strength is low and transmission lines are long, an op amp must
accurately amplify the input signals. However, all op amp pins—
the noninverting input, inverting input, positive supply, negative
supply, and output pins—are susceptible to EMI signals. These
high frequency signals are coupled into an op amp by various
means such as conduction, near field radiation, or far field radiation. For instance, wires and PCB traces can act as antennas and
pick up high frequency EMI signals.
Precision op amps, such as the AD8657, do not amplify EMI or
RF signals because of their relatively low bandwidth. However,
due to the nonlinearities of the input devices, op amps can rectify
these out-of-band signals. When these high frequency signals
are rectified, they appear as a dc offset at the output.
To describe the ability of the AD8657 to perform as intended in
the presence of an electromagnetic energy, the electromagnetic
interference rejection ratio (EMIRR) of the noninverting pin is
specified in Table 2, Table 3, and Table 4 of the Specifications
section. A mathematical method of measuring EMIRR is
defined as follows:
EMIRR = 20 log (VIN_PEAK/ΔVOS)
With a zero-scale input, a current of VREF/RNULL flows through
R´. This creates a current flowing through the sense resistor,
ISENSE, determined by the following equation (see Figure 72 for
details):
ISENSE, MIN = (VREF × R´)/(RNULL × RSENSE)
With a full-scale input voltage, current flowing through R´ is
increased by the full-scale change in VIN/RSPAN. This creates an
increase in the current flowing through the sense resistor.
ISENSE, DELTA = (Full-Scale Change in VIN × R´)/(RSPAN × RSENSE)
Therefore
ISENSE, MAX = ISENSE, MIN + ISENSE, DELTA
When R´ >> RSENSE, the current through the load resistor at the
receiver side is almost equivalent to ISENSE.
Figure 72 is designed for a full-scale input voltage of 5 V. At 0 V
of input, loop current is 3.5 mA, and at a full scale of 5 V, the
loop current is 21 mA. This allows software calibration to fine
tune the current loop to the 4 mA to 20 mA range.

The AD8657 and ADR125 both consume only 160 μA quiescent
current, making 3.34 mA current available to power additional
signal conditioning circuitry or to power a bridge circuit.

The transmitter powers directly from the control loop power
supply, and the current in the loop carries signal from 4 mA to
20 mA. Thus, 4 mA establishes the baseline current budget within
which the circuit must operate. Using the AD8657 is an excellent

choice due to its low supply current of 33 μA per amplifier over
temperature and supply voltage. The current transmitter controls
the current flowing in the loop, where a zero-scale input signal
is represented by 4 mA of current and a full-scale input signal
is represented by 20 mA. The transmitter also floats from the
control loop power supply, VDD, while signal ground is in the
receiver. The loop current is measured at the load resistor, RL,
at the receiver side.
