GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ALD2724E/ALD2724 is a dual monolithic operational amplifier with
MOSFET input that has rail-to-rail input and output voltage ranges. The
input voltage range and output voltage range are very close to the positive
and negative power supply voltages. Typically the input voltage can be
beyond positive power supply voltage V+ or the negative power supply
voltage V- by up to 300mV. The output voltage swings to within 60mV of
either positive or negative power supply voltages at rated load.
With high impedance load, the output voltage of the ALD2724E/ALD2724
approaches within 1mV of the power supply rails. This device is designed
as an alternative to the popular J-FET input operational amplifier in
applications where lower operating voltages, such as 9V battery or ±3.25V
to ±5V power supplies are being used. The ALD2724E/ALD2724 offers
high slew rate of 5.0V/µs.
The rail-to-rail input and output feature of the ALD2724E/ALD2724 expands signal voltage range for a given operating supply voltage and allows
numerous analog serial stages to be implemented without losing operating voltage margin. The output stage is designed to drive up to 10mA into
400pF capacitive and 1.5KΩ resistive loads at unity gain and up to 4000pF
at a gain of 5. Short circuit protection to either ground or the power supply
rails is at approximately 15mA clamp current. Due to complementary
output stage design, the output can source and sink 10mA into a load with
symmetrical drive and is ideally suited for applications where push-pull
voltage drive is desired.
For each of the operational amplifier, the offset voltage is trimmed on-chip
to eliminate the need for external nulling in many applications. For
precision applications, the output is designed to settle to 0.1% in 2µs. In
large signal buffer applications, the operational amplifier can function as

GENERAL DESCRIPTION (cont'd)
an ultra-high input impedance voltage follower/buffer that
allows input and output voltage swings from positive to
negative supply voltages. This feature is intended to greatly
simplify systems design and eliminate higher voltage power
supplies in many applications.
Each ALD2724E/ALD2724 operational amplifier features
individual, user-programmable offset voltage trimming resulting in significantly enhanced total system performance
and user flexibility. EPAD technology is an exclusive ALD
design which has been refined for analog applications where
precision voltage trimming is necessary to achieve a desired
performance. It utilizes CMOS FETs as in-circuit elements
for trimming of offset voltage bias characteristics with the aid
of a personal computer under software control. Once
programmed, the set parameters are stored indefinitely.
EPAD offers the circuit designer a convenient and costeffective trimming solution for achieving the very highest
amplifier/system performance.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ALD2724E/ALD2724 utilizes EPADs as in-circuit elements for trimming of offset voltage bias characteristics.
Each ALD2724E/ALD2724 operational amplifier has a pair of
EPAD-based circuits connected such that one circuit is used
to adjust VOS in one direction and the other circuit is used
to adjust VOS in the other direction. While each of the basic
EPAD device is a monotonically adjustable (offset voltage
trimming) programmable device, the VOS of the ALD2724E
can be adjusted many times in both directions. Once programmed, the set VOS levels are stored permanently, even
when the device power is removed.
Functional Description of ALD2724E/ALD2724
The ALD2724E is pre-programmed at the factory under
standard operating conditions for minimum equivalent input
offset voltage. It also has a guaranteed offset voltage program range, which is ideal for applications that require
electrical offset voltage programming.
The ALD2724E is an operational amplifier that can be
trimmed stand-alone, with user application-specific programming or in-system programming conditions. User application-specific circuit programming refers to a situation
where the Total Input Offset Voltage of the ALD2724E can be
trimmed with the actual intended operating conditions.
Take the example of an application circuit that uses + 5V and
-5V power supplies, an operational amplifier input biased at
+1V, and an average operating temperature at +85°C; the
circuit can be wired up to these conditions within an environmental chamber with the ALD2724E inserted into a test
socket while it is being electrically trimmed. Any error in V OS
due to these bias conditions can be automatically zeroed out.
The Total VOS error, VOST, is now limited only by the
adjustable range and the stability of VOS, and the input noise
voltage of the operational amplifier. This Total Input Offset
Voltage now includes VOS, as VOS is traditionally specified;
plus the VOS error contributions from PSRR, CMRR,
TCVOS , and noise. Typically, VOST ranges approximately
±25µV for the ALD2724E.
In-System Programming refers to the condition where the
EPAD adjustment is made after the ALD2724E has been
2
inserted into a circuit board. In this case, the circuit design
must provide for the ALD2724E to operate in both normal
mode and in programming mode. One of the benefits of insystem programming is that not only the ALD2724E offset
voltage from operating bias conditions has been accounted
for, any residual errors introduced by other circuit components, such as resistor or sensor induced voltage errors, can
also be programmed and corrected. In this way, the “insystem” circuit output can be adjusted to a desired level
eliminating need for another trimming function.
The ALD2724 is pre-programmed at the factory under
standard operating conditions for minimum equivalent input
offset voltage. The ALD2724 offers similar programmable
features as the ALD2724E, but with more limited offset
voltage program range. It is intended for standard
operational amplifier applications where little or no electrical
programming by the user is necessary.
USER PROGRAMMABLE VOS FEATURE
Each ALD2724E/ALD2724 has four additional pins,
compared to a conventional dual operational amplifier which
has eight pins. These four additional pins are named VE1A,
VE2A for op amp A and VE1B, VE2B for op amp B. Each of
these pins VE1A, VE2A, VE1B, VE2B (represented by
VExx) are connected to a separate, internal offset bias
circuit. VExx pins have initial internal bias voltage values of
approximately 1 to 2 Volts. The voltage on these pins can be
programmed using the ALD E100 EPAD Programmer and
the appropriate Adapter Module. The useful programming
range of voltages on VExx pins are 1 Volt to 4 Volts.
VExx pins are programming pins, used during electrical
programming mode to inject charge into the internal EPADs.
Increasing voltage on VE1A/VE1B decreases the offset
voltage whereas increasing voltage on VE2A/VE2B increases the offset voltage of op amp A and op amp B,
respectively.
During programming, voltages on VExx pins are increased
incrementally to program the offset voltage of the operational amplifier to the desired VOS . Note that desired VOS
can be any value within the offset voltage programmable
ranges, and can be either equal zero, a positive value or a
negative value. This V OS value can also be reprogrammed
to a different value at a later time, provided that the useful
VE1x or VE2x programming voltage range has not been
exceeded. The injected charge is then permanently stored.
After programming, VExx pins must be left open in order for
these voltages to remain at the programmed levels.
Internally, VE1 and VE2 are programmed and connected
differentially. Temperature drift effects between the two
internal offset bias circuits cancel each other and introduce
less net temperature drift coefficient change than offset
voltage trimming techniques such as offset adjustment with
an external trimmer potentiometer.
While programming, V+, VE1 and VE2 pins may be alternately pulsed with 12V (approximately) pulses generated by
the EPAD Programmer. In-system programming requires
the ALD2722E application circuit to accommodate these
programming pulses. If needed, this requirement can be
accomplished by adding resistors at certain appropriate
circuit nodes.

DEFINITIONS AND APPLICATION NOTES:
DESIGN NOTES:
1. Initial Input Offset Voltage is the initial offset voltage of the
ALD2724E/ALD2724 operational amplifier when shipped from
the factory. The device has been pre-programmed and tested
for programmability.
A. The ALD2724E/ALD2724 is internally compensated for unity
gain stability using a novel scheme which produces a single pole
role off in the gain characteristics while providing more than 70
degrees of phase margin at unity gain frequency. A unity gain
buffer using the ALD2724E/ALD2724 will typically drive 400pF
of external load capacitance.
2. Offset Voltage Program Range is the range of adjustment of
user specified target offset voltage. This is typically an adjustment in either the negative or positive direction of the input offset
voltage from an initial input offset voltage. The input offset
programming pins, VE1A/VE1B or VE2A/VE2B change the
input offset voltages in the negative or positive direction, for
each of the amplifier A or B, respectively. User specified target
offset voltage can be any offset voltage within this programming
range.
3. Programmed Input Offset Voltage Error is the final offset
voltage error after programming when the Input Offset Voltage
is at target Offset Voltage. This parameter is sample tested.
4. Total Input Offset Voltage is the same as Programmed Input
Offset Voltage, corrected for system offset voltage error. Usually this is an all inclusive system offset voltage, which also
includes offset voltage contributions from input offset voltage,
PSRR, CMRR, TCVOS and noise. It can also include errors
introduced by external components, at a system level. Programmed Input Offset Voltage and Total Input Offset Voltage is
not necessarily zero offset voltage, but an offset voltage set to
compensate for other system errors as well. This parameter is
sample tested.
5. The Input Offset and Bias Currents are essentially input
protection diode reverse bias leakage currents. This low input
bias current assures that the analog signal from the source will
not be distorted by it. For applications where source impedance
is very high, it may be necessary to limit noise and hum pickup
through proper shielding.
6. Input Voltage Range is determined by two parallel complementary input stages that are summed internally, each stage
having a separate input offset voltage. While Total Input Offset
Voltage can be trimmed to a desired target value, it is essential
to note that this trimming occurs at only one user selected input
bias voltage. Depending on the selected input bias voltage
relative to the power supply voltages, offset voltage trimming
may affect one or both input stages. For the ALD2724E/
ALD2724, the switching point between the two stages occur at
approximately 1.5V above negative supply voltage.
7. Input Offset Voltage Drift is the average change in Total Input
Offset Voltage as a function of ambient temperature. This
parameter is sample tested.
8. Initial PSRR and initial CMRR specifications are provided as
reference information. After programming, error contribution to
the offset voltage from PSRR and CMRR is set to zero under the
specific power supply and common mode conditions, and
becomes part of the Programmed Input Offset Voltage Error.
9. Average Long Term Input Offset Voltage Stability is based on
input offset voltage shift through operating life test at 125°C
extrapolated to TA = 25 °C, assuming activation energy of
1.0eV. This parameter is sample tested.

B. The ALD2724E/ALD2724 has complementary p-channel
and n-channel input differential stages connected in parallel to
accomplish rail-to-rail input common mode voltage range. The
switching point between the two differential stages is 1.5V
above negative supply voltage. For applications such as inverting amplifier or non-inverting amplifier with a gain larger than 2.5
(5V operation), the common mode voltage does not make
excursions below this switching point. However, this switching
does take place if the operational amplifier is connected as a railto-rail unity gain buffer and the design must allow for input offset
voltage variations.
C. The output stage consists of class AB complementary output
drivers. The oscillation resistant feature, combined with the railto-rail input and output feature, makes the ALD2724E/ALD2724
an effective analog signal buffer for high source impedance
sensors, transducers, and other circuit networks.
D. The ALD2724E/ALD2724 has static discharge protection.
Care must be exercised when handling the device to avoid
strong static fields that may degrade a diode junction, causing
increased input leakage currents. The user is advised to power
up the circuit before, or simultaneously with, any input voltages
applied and to limit input voltages not to exceed 0.3V of the
power supply voltage levels.
E. VExx are high impedance terminals, as the internal bias
currents are set very low to a few microamperes to conserve
power. For some applications, these terminals may need to be
shielded from external coupling sources. For example, digital
signals running nearby may cause unwanted offset voltage
fluctuations. Care during the printed circuit board layout to place
ground traces around these pins and to isolate them from digital
lines will generally eliminate such coupling effects. In addition,
optional decoupling capacitors of 1000pF or greater value can
be added to VExx terminals.
F. The ALD2724E/ALD2724 is designed for use in low voltage,
micropower circuits. The maximum operating voltage during
normal operation should remain below 10 Volts at all times. Care
should be taken to insure that the application in which the device
is used do not experience any positive or negative transient
voltages that will cause any of the terminal voltages to exceed
this limit.
G. All inputs or unused pins except VExx pins should be
connected to a supply voltage such as Ground so that they do
not become floating pins, since input impedance at these pins
is very high. If any of these pins are left undefined, they may
cause unwanted oscillation or intermittent excessive current
drain. As these devices are built with CMOS technology, normal
operating and storage temperature limits, ESD and latchup
handling precautions pertaining to CMOS device handling
should be observed.
