The LT1223 is a 100MHz current feedback amplifier with
very good DC characteristics. The LT1223’s high slew
rate, 1000V/µs, wide supply range, ±15V, and large output
drive, ±50mA, make it ideal for driving analog signals over
double- terminated cables. The current feedback amplifier
has high gain bandwidth at high gains, unlike conventional
op amps.
The LT1223 comes in the industry standard pinout and
can upgrade the performance of many older products.

Current Feedback Basics
The small-signal bandwidth of the LT1223, like all current
feedback amplifiers, isn’t a straight inverse function of the
closed-loop gain. This is because the feedback resistors
determine the amount of current driving the amplifier’s
internal compensation capacitor. In fact, the amplifier’s
feedback resistor (RF) from output to inverting input
works with internal junction capacitances of the LT1223 to
set the closed-loop bandwidth.
Even though the gain set resistor (RG) from inverting input
to ground works with RF to set the voltage gain just like it
6
does in a voltage feedback op amp, the closed-loop
bandwidth does not change. This is because the equivalent gain bandwidth product of the current feedback amplifier is set by the Thevenin equivalent resistance at the
inverting input and the internal compensation capacitor.
By keeping RF constant and changing the gain with RG, the
Thevenin resistance changes by the same amount as the
change in gain. As a result, the net closed-loop bandwidth
of the LT1223 remains the same for various closed-loop
gains.

S I FOR ATIO
The curve on the first page shows the LT1223 voltage gain
versus frequency while driving 100Ω, for five gain settings
from 1 to 100. The feedback resistor is a constant 1k and
the gain resistor is varied from infinity to 10Ω. Shown for
comparison is a plot of the fixed 100MHz gain bandwidth
limitation that a voltage feedback amplifier would have. It
is obvious that for gains greater than one, the LT1223
provides 3 to 20 times more bandwidth. It is also evident
that second order effects reduce the bandwidth somewhat
at the higher gain settings.
Feedback Resistor Selection
Because the feedback resistor determines the compensation of the LT1223, bandwidth and transient response can
be optimized for almost every application. To increase the
bandwidth when using higher gains, the feedback resistor
(and gain resistor) can be reduced from the nominal 1k
value. The Minimum Feedback Resistor versus Voltage
Gain curve shows the values to use for ±15V supplies.
Larger feedback resistors can also be used to slow down
the LT1223 as shown in the –3dB Bandwidth versus
Feedback Resistor curve.
Capacitive Loads
The LT1223 can be isolated from capacitive loads with a
small resistor (10Ω to 20Ω) or it can drive the capacitive
load directly if the feedback resistor is increased. Both
techniques lower the amplifier’s bandwidth about the
same amount. The advantage of resistive isolation is that
the bandwidth is only reduced when the capacitive load is
present. The disadvantage of resistor isolation is that
resistive loading causes gain errors. Because the DC
accuracy is not degraded with resistive loading, the desired way of driving capacitive loads, such as flash converters, is to increase the feedback resistor. The Maximum
Capacitive Load versus Feedback Resistor curve shows
the value of feedback resistor and capacitive load that
gives 5dB of peaking. For less peaking, use a larger
feedback resistor.
Power Supplies
The LT1223 may be operated with single or split supplies
as low as ±4V (8V total) to as high as ±18V (36V total). It
is not necessary to use equal value split supplies, however, the offset voltage will degrade about 350µV per volt
of mismatch. The internal compensation capacitor decreases with increasing supply voltage. The –3dB Bandwidth versus Supply Voltage curve shows how this affects
the bandwidth for various feedback resistors. Generally,
the bandwidth at ±5V supplies is about half the value it is
at ±15V supplies for a given feedback resistor.
The LT1223 is very stable even with minimal supply
bypassing, however, the transient response will suffer if
the supply rings. It is recommended for good slew rate and
settling time that 4.7µF tantalum capacitors be placed
within 0.5 inches of the supply pins.
Input Range
The noninverting input of the LT1223 looks like a 10M
resistor in parallel with a 3pF capacitor until the common
mode range is exceeded. The input impedance drops
somewhat and the input current rises to about 10µA when
the input comes too close to the supplies. Eventually,
when the input exceeds the supply by one diode drop, the
base collector junction of the input transistor forward
biases and the input current rises dramatically. The input
current should be limited to 10mA when exceeding the
supplies. The amplifier will recover quickly when the input
is returned to its normal common mode range unless the
input was over 500mV beyond the supplies, then it will
take an extra 100ns.
Offset Adjust
Output offset voltage is equal to the input offset voltage
times the gain plus the inverting input bias current times
the feedback resistor. For low gain applications (3 or less)
a 10kΩ pot connected to pins 1 and 5 with wiper to V+ will
trim the inverting input current (±10µA) to null the output;
it does not change the offset voltage very much. If the
LT1223 is used in a high gain application, where input
offset voltage is the dominate error, it can be nulled by
pulling approximately 100µA from pin 1 or 5. The easy way
to do this is to use a 10kΩ pot between pin 1 and 5 with a
150k resistor from the wiper to ground for 15V supply
applications. Use a 47k resistor when operating on a 5V
supply.

Shutdown
Output Slew Rate of 500V/µs
Pin 8 activates a shutdown control function. Pulling more
than 200µA from pin 8 drops the supply current to less than
3mA, and puts the output into a high impedance state. The
easy way to force shutdown is to ground pin 8, using an
open collector (drain) logic stage. An internal resistor limits
current, allowing direct interfacing with no additional parts.
When pin 8 is open, the LT1223 operates normally.
Slew Rate
The slew rate of a current feedback amplifier is not independent of the amplifier gain configuration the way it is in
a traditional op amp. This is because the input stage and
the output stage both have slew rate limitations. Inverting
amplifiers do not slew the input and are therefore limited
only by the output stage. High gain, noninverting amplifiers are similar. The input stage slew rate of the LT1223 is
about 350V/µs before it becomes nonlinear and is enhanced by the normally reverse-biased emitters on the
input transistors. The output slew rate depends on the size
of the feedback resistors. The peak output slew rate is
about 2000V/µs with a 1k feedback resistor and drops
proportionally for larger values. At an output slew rate of
1000V/µs or more, the transistors in the “mirror circuits”
will begin to saturate due to the large feedback currents.
This causes the output to have slew induced overshoot and
is somewhat unusual looking; it is in no way harmful or
dangerous to the device. The photos show the LT1223 in
a noninverting gain of three (RF = 1k, RG = 500Ω) with a
20V peak-to-peak output slewing at 500V/µs, 1000V/µs
and 2000V/µs.
Settling Time
The Inverting Amplifier Settling Time versus Output Step
curve shows that the LT1223 will settle to within 1mV of
final value in less than 100ns for all output changes of 10V
or less. When operated as an inverting amplifier there is
less than 500µV of thermal settling in the amplifier.
However, when operating the LT1223 as a noninverting
amplifier, there is an additional thermal settling component that is about 200µV for every volt of input common
mode change. So a noninverting gain of one amplifier will

have about 2.5mV thermal tail on a 10V step. Unfortunately, reducing the input signal and increasing the gain
always results in a thermal tail of about the same amount
for a given output step. For this reason we show separate
graphs of 10mV and 1mV non-inverting amplifier settling
times. Just as the bandwidth of the LT1223 is fairly
constant for various closed-loop gains, the settling time
remains constant as well.
Adjustable Gain Amplifier
To make a variable gain amplifier with the LT1223, vary the
value of RG. The implementation of RG can be a pot, a light
controlled resistor, a FET, or any other low capacitance
variable resistor. The value of RF should not be varied to
change the gain. If RF is changed, then the bandwidth will
be reduced at maximum gain and the circuit will oscillate
when RF is very small.
Accurate Bandwidth Limiting The LT1223
It is very common to limit the bandwidth of an op amp by
putting a small capacitor in parallel with RF. DO NOT PUT
A SMALL CAPACITOR FROM THE INVERTING INPUT OF
A CURRENT FEEDBACK AMPLIFIER TO ANYWHERE ELSE,
ESPECIALLY NOT TO THE OUTPUT. The capacitor on the
inverting input will cause peaking or oscillations. If you
need to limit the bandwidth of a current feedback amplifier,
use a resistor and capacitor at the noninverting input (R1
& C1). This technique will also cancel (to a degree) the
peaking caused by stray capacitance at the inverting input.
Unfortunately, this will not limit the output noise the way
it does for the op amp.

Adjustable Bandwidth Amplifier
Because the resistance at the inverting input determines
the bandwidth of the LT1223, an adjustable bandwidth
circuit can be made easily. The gain is set as before with
RF and RG; the bandwidth is maximum when the variable
resistor is at a minimum.

Since we remember that the inverting input wants to see

circuit. This generates a new summing node where we can
apply capacitive feedback. The LT1223 integrator has

high frequencies.

Summing Amplifier (DC Accurate)
The summing amplifier is easily made by adding additional
inputs to the basic inverting amplifier configuration. The
LT1223 has no IOS spec because there is no correlation
between the two input bias currents. Therefore, we will not
improve the DC accuracy of the inverting amplifier by
putting in the extra resistor in the noninverting input.

inverting input (A1) senses the shield and the non-inverting input (A2) senses the center conductor. Since this
amplifier does not load the cable (take care to minimize
stray capacitance) and it rejects common mode hum and
noise, several amplifiers can sense the signal with only
one termination at the end of the cable. The design
equations are simple. Just select the gain you need (it
should be two or more) and the value of the feedback
resistor (typically 1k) and calculate RG1 and RG2. The gain
can be tweaked with RG2 and the CMRR with RG1 if needed.
The bandwidth of the noninverting input signal is not
reduced by the presence of the other amplifier, however,
the inverting input signal bandwidth is reduced since it
passes two amplifiers. The CMRR is good at high frequencies because the bandwidth of the amplifiers are about the
same even though they do not necessarily operate at the
same gain.

Cable Driver
The cable driver circuit is shown on the front page. When
driving a cable it is important to properly terminate both
ends if even modest high frequency performance is
required. The additional advantage of this is that it isolates
the capacitive load of the cable from the amplifier so it can
operate at maximum bandwidth.
