DESCRIPTION

●
●
●
The OPA2634 is a dual, low power, voltage-feedback,
high-speed operational amplifier designed to operate
on +3V or +5V single-supply voltage. Operation on
±5V or +10V supplies is also supported. The input
range extends below ground and to within 1.2V of the
positive supply. Using complementary common-emitter outputs provides an output swing to within 30mV
of ground and 140mV of positive supply.
Low distortion operation is ensured by the high gain
bandwidth (140MHz) and slew rate (250V/µs). This
makes the OPA2634 an ideal differential input buffer
stage to 3V and 5V CMOS converters. Unlike other
low power, single-supply operational amplifiers, distortion performance improves as the signal swing is
decreased. A low 5.6nV/√Hz input voltage noise supports wide dynamic range operation.
The OPA2634 is available in an industry-standard dual
pinout SO-8 package. Where a single channel, singlesupply operational amplifier is required, consider the
OPA634 and OPA635. Where lower supply current
and speed are required, consider the OPA2631.
HIGH BANDWIDTH: 150MHz (G = +2)
+3V AND +5V OPERATION
INPUT RANGE INCLUDES GROUND
4.8V OUTPUT SWING ON +5V SUPPLY
HIGH OUTPUT CURRENT: 80mA
HIGH SLEW RATE: 250V/µs

Electrostatic discharge can cause damage ranging from performance degradation to complete device failure. Burr-Brown Corporation recommends that all integrated circuits be handled and stored
using appropriate ESD protection methods.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to
complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes
could cause the device not to meet published specifications.

The OPA2634 is a unity-gain stable, very high-speed, voltage-feedback op amp designed for single-supply operation
(+3V to +5V). The input stage supports input voltages below
ground, and within 1.2V of the positive supply. The complementary common-emitter output stage provides an output
swing to within 30mV of ground and 140mV of the positive
supply. It is compensated to provide stable operation with a
wide range of resistive loads.

low distortion, support converters such as the ADS900

designed so that VIN can be between 0V and 0.5V, while

The front page circuit is a good example of this type of

NON-INVERTING AMPLIFIER WITH
REDUCED PEAKING
Figure 6 shows a non-inverting amplifier that reduces peaking at low gains. The resistor RC compensates the OPA2634
to have higher Noise Gain (NG), which reduces the AC
response peaking (typically 5dB at G = +1 without RC)
without changing the DC gain. VIN needs to be a low
impedance source, such as an op amp. The resistor values
are low to reduce noise. Using both RT and RF helps
minimize the impact of parasitic impedances.

OPA2634
A good rule of thumb is to target the parallel combination of
RF and RG (Figure 6) to be less than approximately 400Ω.
The combined impedance RF || RG interacts with the inverting input capacitance, placing an additional pole in the
feedback network and thus, a zero in the forward response.
Assuming a 3pF total parasitic on the inverting node, holding RF || RG <400Ω will keep this pole above 130MHz. By
itself, this constraint implies that the feedback resistor (RF)
can increase to several kΩ at high gains. This is acceptable
as long as the pole formed by RF and any parasitic capacitance appearing in parallel is kept out of the frequency range
of interest.
The noise gain can be calculated as follows:
G1 = 1 +
RF
RG
G2 = 1 +
R T + R F /G1
RC
NG = G1G 2
A unity-gain buffer can be designed by selecting RT = RF =
20.0Ω and RC = 40.2Ω (do not use RG ). This gives a noise
gain of 2, therefore, its response will be similar to the
characteristics plots with G = +2. Decreasing RC to 20.0Ω
will increase the noise gain to 3, which typically gives a flat
frequency response, but with less bandwidth.
BANDWIDTH VS GAIN: NON-INVERTING OPERATION
Voltage-feedback op amps exhibit decreasing closed-loop
bandwidth as the signal gain is increased. In theory, this
relationship is described by the Gain Bandwidth Product
(GBP) shown in the specifications. Ideally, dividing GBP by
the non-inverting signal gain (also called the Noise Gain, or
NG) will predict the closed-loop bandwidth. In practice, this
only holds true when the phase margin approaches 90°, as it
does in high gain configurations. At low gains (increased
feedback factors), most amplifiers will exhibit a more complex response with lower phase margin. The OPA2634 is
compensated to give a slightly peaked response in a noninverting gain of 2 (Figure 1). This results in a typical gain
of +2 bandwidth of 150MHz, far exceeding that predicted by
dividing the 140MHz GBP by 2. Increasing the gain will
cause the phase margin to approach 90° and the bandwidth
to more closely approach the predicted value of (GBP/NG).
At a gain of +10, the 16MHz bandwidth shown in the
Typical Specifications is close to that predicted using the
simple formula and the typical GBP.
The circuit in Figure 2 can be redesigned to have less peaking
by increasing the noise gain to 3. This is accomplished by
adding RC = 2.55kΩ between the op amp’s inputs.

OPERATING SUGGESTIONS
OPTIMIZING RESISTOR VALUES
INVERTING AMPLIFIER OPERATION
Since the OPA2634 is a voltage-feedback op amp, a wide
range of resistor values may be used for the feedback and
gain setting resistors. The primary limits on these values are
set by dynamic range (noise and distortion) and parasitic
capacitance considerations. For a non-inverting unity-gain
follower application, the feedback connection should be
made with a 25Ω resistor, not a direct short. This will isolate
the inverting input capacitance from the output pin and
improve the frequency response flatness. Usually, for G > 1
application, the feedback resistor value should be between
200Ω and 1.5kΩ. Below 200Ω, the feedback network will
present additional output loading which can degrade the
harmonic distortion performance. Above 1.5kΩ, the typical
parasitic capacitance (approximately 0.2pF) across the feedback resistor may cause unintentional bandlimiting in the
amplifier response.
Since the OPA2634 is a general purpose, wideband voltage
feedback op amp, all of the familiar op amp application
circuits are available to the designer. Figure 7 shows a
typical inverting configuration where the I/O impedances
and signal gain from Figure 1 are retained in an inverting
circuit configuration. Inverting operation is one of the more
common requirements and offers several performance benefits. The inverting configuration shows improved slew rate
and distortion. It also biases the input at VS/2 for the best
headroom. The output voltage can be independently moved
with bias-adjustment resistors connected to the input.
In the inverting configuration, three key design consideration must be noted. The first is that the gain resistor (RG)
becomes part of the signal channel input impedance. If input
impedance matching is desired (which is beneficial whenever the signal is coupled through a cable, twisted pair, long

non-inverting input (parallel combination of RT = 750Ω). If
this resistor is set equal to the total DC resistance looking out
of the inverting node, the output DC error, due to the input
bias currents, will be reduced to (Input Offset Current) • RF.
Because of the 0.1µF capacitor, the inverting input’s bias
current flows through RF. Thus, RT = 750Ω = 1.50kΩ ||
1.50kΩ is needed for the minimum output offset voltage. To
reduce the additional high frequency noise introduced by RT,
and power supply feedthrough, it is bypassed with a 0.1µF
capacitor. At a minimum, the OPA2634 should see a source
resistance of at least 50Ω to damp out parasitic-induced
peaking—a direct short to ground on the non-inverting input
runs the risk of a very high frequency instability in the input
stage.

OUTPUT CURRENT AND VOLTAGE
The OPA2634 provides outstanding output voltage capability. Under no-load conditions at +25°C, the output voltage
typically swings closer than 140mV to either supply rail; the
guaranteed swing limit is within 450mV of either rail (VS =
+5V).

FIGURE 7. Gain of –2 Example Circuit.
The minimum specified output voltage and current specifications over temperature are set by worst-case simulations at
the cold temperature extreme. Only at cold start-up will the
output current and voltage decrease to the numbers shown in
the guaranteed tables. As the output transistors deliver power,
their junction temperatures will increase, decreasing their
VBE’s (increasing the available output voltage swing) and
increasing their current gains (increasing the available output current). In steady-state operation, the available output
voltage and current will always be greater than that shown
in the over-temperature specifications since the output stage
junction temperatures will be higher than the minimum
specified operating ambient.
PC board trace or other transmission line conductor), RG
may be set equal to the required termination value and RF
adjusted to give the desired gain. This is the simplest
approach and results in optimum bandwidth and noise performance. However, at low inverting gains, the resultant
feedback resistor value can present a significant load to the
amplifier output. For an inverting gain of 2, setting RG to
50Ω for input matching eliminates the need for RM but
requires a 100Ω feedback resistor. This has the interesting
advantage that the noise gain becomes equal to 2 for a 50Ω
source impedance—the same as the non-inverting circuits
considered above. However, the amplifier output will now
see the 100Ω feedback resistor in parallel with the external
load. In general, the feedback resistor should be limited to
the 200Ω to 1.5kΩ range. In this case, it is preferable to
increase both the RF and RG values as shown in Figure 7, and
then achieve the input matching impedance with a third
resistor (RM) to ground. The total input impedance becomes
the parallel combination of RG and RM.
To maintain maximum output stage linearity, no output
short-circuit protection is provided. This will not normally
be a problem since most applications include a series matching resistor at the output that will limit the internal power
dissipation if the output side of this resistor is shorted to
ground.
DRIVING CAPACITIVE LOADS
The second major consideration, touched on in the previous
paragraph, is that the signal source impedance becomes
part of the noise gain equation and hence, influences the
bandwidth. For the example in Figure 7, the RM value
combines in parallel with the external 50Ω source impedance, yielding an effective driving impedance of 50Ω ||
57.6Ω = 26.8Ω. This impedance is added in series with RG
for calculating the noise gain. The resultant is 2.87 for
Figure 7, as opposed to only 2 if RM could be eliminated as
discussed above. The bandwidth will, therefore, be lower
for the gain of –2 circuit of Figure 7 (NG = +2.9) than for
the gain of +2 circuit of Figure 1.
One of the most demanding and yet very common load
conditions for an op amp is capacitive loading. Often, the
capacitive load is the input of an A/D converter—including
additional external capacitance which may be recommended
to improve A/D linearity. A high-speed, high open-loop gain
amplifier like the OPA2634 can be very susceptible to
decreased stability and closed-loop response peaking when
a capacitive load is placed directly on the output pin. When
the primary considerations are frequency response flatness,
pulse response fidelity and/or distortion, the simplest and
most effective solution is to isolate the capacitive load from
the feedback loop by inserting a series isolation resistor
between the amplifier output and the capacitive load.
The third important consideration in inverting amplifier
design is setting the bias current cancellation resistors on the

The Typical Performance Curves show the recommended
RS versus capacitive load and the resulting frequency response at the load. Parasitic capacitive loads greater than
2pF can begin to degrade the performance of the OPA2634.
Long PC board traces, unmatched cables, and connections to
multiple devices can easily exceed this value. Always consider this effect carefully, and add the recommended series
resistor as close as possible to the output pin (see Board
Layout Guidelines).

DC ACCURACY AND OFFSET CONTROL
The balanced input stage of a wideband voltage-feedback op
amp allows good output DC accuracy in a wide variety of
applications. The power supply current trim for the OPA2634
gives even tighter control than comparable products. Although the high-speed input stage does require relatively
high input bias current (typically 25µA out of each input
terminal), the close matching between them may be used to
reduce the output DC error caused by this current. This is
done by matching the DC source resistances appearing at the
two inputs. Evaluating the configuration of Figure 1 (which
has matched DC input resistances), using worst-case +25°C
input offset voltage and current specifications, gives a worstcase output offset voltage equal to (NG = non-inverting
signal gain at DC):
Equation 1:
±(NG • VOS(MAX)) ± (RF • IOS(MAX))
= ±(1 • 7.0mV) ± (750Ω • 2.0µA)
= ±8.5mV = Output Offset Range for Figure 1
+ ( I BN R S ) + 4kTR S NG 2 + ( I BI R F ) + 4kTR F NG

Dividing this expression by the noise gain (NG = (1+RF /RG))
will give the equivalent input-referred spot noise voltage at
the non-inverting input, as shown in Equation 2.
®
OPA2634
4kT = 1.6E –20J
at 290°K
Evaluating these two equations for the circuit and component values shown in Figure 1 will give a total output spot
noise voltage of 12.5nV/√Hz and a total equivalent input
spot noise voltage of 6.3nV/√Hz. This is including the noise
added by the resistors. This total input-referred spot noise
voltage is not much higher than the 5.6nV/√Hz specification
for the op amp voltage noise alone. This will be the case as
long as the impedances appearing at each op amp input are
limited to the previously recommend maximum value of
400Ω, and the input attenuation is low.
The total output spot noise voltage can be computed as the
square root of the sum of all squared output noise voltage
contributors. Equation 1 shows the general form for the
output noise voltage using the terms shown in Figure 8.

High slew rate, unity gain stable, voltage-feedback op amps
usually achieve their slew rate at the expense of a higher
input noise voltage. The 5.6nV/√Hz input voltage noise for
the OPA2634 is, however, much lower than comparable
amplifiers. The input-referred voltage noise, and the two
input-referred current noise terms (2.8pA/√Hz), combine to
give low output noise under a wide variety of operating
conditions. Figure 8 shows the op amp noise analysis model
with all the noise terms included. In this model, all noise
terms are taken to be noise voltage or current density terms
in either nV/√Hz or pA/√Hz.

The OPA2634 provides good distortion performance into a
150Ω load. Relative to alternative solutions, it provides
exceptional performance into lighter loads and/or operating
on a single +3V supply. Generally, until the fundamental
signal reaches very high frequency or power levels, the 2nd
harmonic will dominate the distortion with a negligible 3rd
harmonic component. Focusing then on the 2nd harmonic,
increasing the load impedance improves distortion directly.
Remember that the total load includes the feedback network;

The criterion for setting this RS resistor is a maximum
bandwidth, flat frequency response at the load. For a gain of
+2, the frequency response at the output pin is already
slightly peaked without the capacitive load, requiring relatively high values of RS to flatten the response at the load.
Increasing the noise gain will also reduce the peaking,
reducing the required RS value (see Figure 6).

BOARD LAYOUT GUIDELINES
A fine scale output offset null, or DC operating point
adjustment, is often required. Numerous techniques are
available for introducing DC offset control into an op amp
circuit. Most of these techniques are based on adding a DC
current through the feedback resistor. In selecting an offset
trim method, one key consideration is the impact on the
desired signal path frequency response. If the signal path is
intended to be non-inverting, the offset control is best
applied as an inverting summing signal to avoid interaction
with the signal source. If the signal path is intended to be
inverting, applying the offset control to the non-inverting
input may be considered. Bring the DC offsetting current
into the inverting input node through resistor values that are
much larger than the signal path resistors. This will insure
that the adjustment circuit has minimal effect on the loop
gain and hence the frequency response.
Achieving optimum performance with a high frequency
amplifier like the OPA2634 requires careful attention to
board layout parasitics and external component types. Recommendations that will optimize performance include:
a) Minimize parasitic capacitance to any AC ground for
all of the signal I/O pins. Parasitic capacitance on the output
and inverting input pins can cause instability: on the noninverting input, it can react with the source impedance
to cause unintentional bandlimiting. To reduce unwanted
capacitance, a window around the signal I/O pins should be
opened in all of the ground and power planes around those
pins. Otherwise, ground and power planes should be unbroken elsewhere on the board.
b) Minimize the distance (< 0.25") from the power supply
pins to high frequency 0.1µF decoupling capacitors. At the
device pins, the ground and power plane layout should not
be in close proximity to the signal I/O pins. Avoid narrow
power and ground traces to minimize inductance between
the pins and the decoupling capacitors. The power supply
connections should always be decoupled with these capacitors. An optional supply decoupling capacitor (0.1µF) across
the two power supplies (for bipolar operation) will improve
2nd harmonic distortion performance. Larger (2.2µF to
6.8µF) decoupling capacitors, effective at lower frequency,
should also be used on the main supply pins. These may be
placed somewhat farther from the device and may be shared
among several devices in the same area of the PC board.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
Maximum desired junction temperature will set the maximum allowed internal power dissipation as described below.
In no case should the maximum junction temperature be
allowed to exceed 175°C.
Operating junction temperature (TJ) is given by TA + PD•θJA.
The total internal power dissipation (PD) is the sum of
quiescent power (PDQ) and additional power dissipated in the
output stage (PDL) to deliver load power. Quiescent power is
simply the specified no-load supply current times the total
supply voltage across the part. PDL will depend on the
required output signal and load but would, for resistive load
connected to mid-supply (VS/2), be at a maximum when the
output is fixed at a voltage equal to VS/4 or 3VS/4. Under this
condition, PDL = VS2/(16 • RL), where RL includes feedback
network loading.
c) Careful selection and placement of external components will preserve the high frequency performance.
Resistors should be a very low reactance type. Surfacemount resistors work best and allow a tighter overall layout.
Metal film or carbon composition axially-leaded resistors
can also provide good high frequency performance. Again,
keep their leads and PC board traces as short as possible.
Never use wirewound type resistors in a high frequency
application. Since the output pin and inverting input pin are
the most sensitive to parasitic capacitance, always position
the feedback and series output resistor, if any, as close as
possible to the output pin. Other network components, such
as non-inverting input termination resistors, should also be
placed close to the package. Where double-side component
mounting is allowed, place the feedback resistor directly
under the package on the other side of the board between the
output and inverting input pins. Even with a low parasitic
capacitance shunting the external resistors, excessively high
resistor values can create significant time constants that can
degrade performance. Good axial metal film or surfacemount resistors have approximately 0.2pF in shunt with the
resistor. For resistor values >1.5kΩ, this parasitic capacitance can add a pole and/or zero below 500MHz that can
effect circuit operation. Keep resistor values as low as
possible consistent with load driving considerations. The
750Ω feedback used in the typical performance specifications is a good starting point for design.
Note that it is the power in the output stage and not into the
load that determines internal power dissipation.
As a worst-case example, compute the maximum TJ using
the circuit of Figure 1 operating at the maximum specified
ambient temperature of +85°C and driving a 150Ω load at
mid-supply, for both channels:
PD = 2 (10V • 13.25mA + 52/(16 • (150Ω || 1500Ω))) = 288mW
Maximum TJ = +85°C + (0.29W • 125°C/W) = 121°C
Although this is still well below the specified maximum
junction temperature, system reliability considerations may
require lower guaranteed junction temperatures. The highest
possible internal dissipation will occur if the load requires
current to be forced into the output at high output voltages
or sourced from the output at low output voltages. This puts
a high current through a large internal voltage drop in the
output transistors.

d) Connections to other wideband devices on the board
may be made with short direct traces or through on-board
transmission lines. For short connections, consider the trace
and the input to the next device as a lumped capacitive load.
Relatively wide traces (50mils to 100mils) should be used,
preferably with ground and power planes opened up around
them. Estimate the total capacitive load and set RS from the
plot of Recommended RS vs Capacitive Load. Low parasitic
capacitive loads (< 5pF) may not need an RS since the
OPA2634 is nominally compensated to operate with a 2pF
parasitic load. Higher parasitic capacitive loads without an
RS are allowed as the signal gain increases (increasing the
unloaded phase margin). If a long trace is required, and the
6dB signal loss intrinsic to a doubly-terminated transmission
line is acceptable, implement a matched impedance transmission line using microstrip or stripline techniques (consult
an ECL design handbook for microstrip and stripline layout
techniques). A 50Ω environment is normally not necessary
on board, and in fact, a higher impedance environment will
improve distortion as shown in the distortion versus load
plots. With a characteristic board trace impedance defined
(based on board material and trace dimensions), a matching
series resistor into the trace from the output of the OPA2634
is used as well as a terminating shunt resistor at the input of
the destination device. Remember also that the terminating
impedance will be the parallel combination of the shunt
resistor and the input impedance of the destination device;
this total effective impedance should be set to match the
trace impedance. If the 6dB attenuation of a doubly-terminated transmission line is unacceptable, a long trace can be
series-terminated at the source end only. Treat the trace as a
capacitive load in this case and set the series resistor value
as shown in the plot of Recommended RS vs Capacitive
Load. This will not preserve signal integrity as well as a
doubly-terminated line. If the input impedance of the destination device is low, there will be some signal attenuation
due to the voltage divider formed by the series output into
the terminating impedance.
e) Socketing a high speed part is not recommended. The
additional lead length and pin-to-pin capacitance introduced
by the socket can create an extremely troublesome parasitic
network which can make it almost impossible to achieve a
smooth, stable frequency response. Best results are obtained
by soldering the OPA2634 onto the board.
INPUT AND ESD PROTECTION
The OPA2634 is built using a very high-speed complementary bipolar process. The internal junction breakdown voltages are relatively low for these very small geometry devices. These breakdowns are reflected in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. All device pins are protected with
internal ESD protection diodes to the power supplies as
shown in Figure 9.
These diodes provide moderate protection to input overdrive
voltages above the supplies as well. The protection diodes
can typically support 30mA continuous current. Where higher
currents are possible (e.g., in systems with ±15V supply
parts driving into the OPA2634), current-limiting series
resistors should be added into the two inputs. Keep these
resistor values as low as possible since high values degrade
both noise performance and frequency response.
