0.5MHz, Low Supply Voltage, Low Input
Current BiMOS Operational Amplifier
The CA3420 is an integrated circuit operational amplifier that
combines PMOS transistors and bipolar transistors on a
single monolithic chip. The CA3420 BiMOS operational
amplifier features gate protected PMOS transistors in the
input circuit to provide very high input impedance, very low
input currents (less than 1pA). The internal bootstrapping
network features a unique guardbanding technique for
reducing the doubling of leakage current for every 10°C
increase in temperature. The CA3420 operates at total
supply voltages from 2V to 20V either single or dual supply.
This operational amplifier is internally phase compensated to
achieve stable operation in the unity gain follower
configuration. Additionally, it has access terminals for a
supplementary external capacitor if additional frequency rolloff is desired. Terminals are also provided for use in
applications requiring input offset voltage nulling. The use of
PMOS in the input stage results in common mode input
voltage capability down to 0.45V below the negative supply
terminal, an important attribute for single supply application.
The output stage uses a feedback OTA type amplifier that
can swing essentially from rail-to-rail. The output driving
current of 1.5mA (Min) is provided by using nonlinear current
mirrors.

Typical Applications
10GΩ
Picoammeter Circuit
The exceptionally low input current (typically 0.2pA) makes
the CA3420 highly suited for use in a picoammeter circuit.
With only a single 10GΩ resistor, this circuit covers the range
from ±1.5pA. Higher current ranges are possible with suitable
switching techniques and current scaling resistors. Input
transient protection is provided by the 1MΩ resistor in series
with the input. Higher current ranges require that this resistor
be reduced. The 10MΩ resistor connected to pin 2 of the
CA3420 decouples the potentially high input capacitance
often associated with lower current circuits and reduces the
tendency for the circuit to oscillate under these conditions.
The meter is placed in series with the gain network, thus
eliminating the meter temperature coefficient error term.
Supply current in the standby position with the meter
undeflected is 300µA. At full-scale deflection this current
rises to 800µA. Carbon-zinc battery life should be in excess
of 1,000 hours.

High Input Resistance Voltmeter
Advantage is taken of the high input impedance of the CA3420
in a high input resistance DC voltmeter. Only two 1.5V “AA”
type penlite batteries power this exceedingly high-input
resistance (>1,000,000MΩ) DC voltmeter. Full-scale deflection
is ±500mV, ±150mV, and ±15mV. Higher voltage ranges are
easily added with external input voltage attenuator networks.
