D
D
The OPA694 is an ultra-wideband, low-power, current
feedback operational amplifier featuring high slew rate and
low differential gain/phase errors. An improved output
stage provides ±80mA output drive with < 1.5V output
voltage headroom. Low supply current with > 500MHz
bandwidth meets the requirements of high density video
routers. Being a current feedback design, the OPA694
holds its bandwidth to very high gains—at a gain of 10, the
OPA694 will still provide 200MHz bandwidth.
D
UNITY GAIN STABLE BANDWIDTH: 1.5GHz
HIGH GAIN OF 2V/V BANDWIDTH: 690MHz
LOW SUPPLY CURRENT: 5.8mA
HIGH SLEW RATE: 1700V/µsec
HIGH FULL-POWER BANDWIDTH: 675MHz
LOW DIFFERENTIAL GAIN/PHASE:
0.03%/0.0155
Pb-FREE AND GREEN SOT23-5 PACKAGE
RF applications can use the OPA694 as a low-power SAW
pre-amplifier. Extremely high 3rd-order intercept is
provided through 70MHz at much lower quiescent power
than many typical RF amplifiers.

(1) Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage.
Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods
may degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions
beyond those specified is not supported.
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas
Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be
handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe
proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
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 its published specifications.

WIDEBAND CURRENT FEEDBACK OPERATION
The OPA694 provides exceptional AC performance for a
wideband, low-power, current-feedback operational
amplifier. Requiring only 5.8mA quiescent current, the
OPA694 offers a 690MHz bandwidth at a gain of +2, along
with a 1700V/µs slew rate. An improved output stage
provides ±80mA output drive, along with < 1.5V output
voltage headroom. This combination of low power and
high bandwidth can benefit high-resolution video
applications.
Figure 1 shows the DC-coupled, gain of +2, dual powersupply circuit configuration used as the basis of the ±5V
Electrical Characteristic tables and Typical Characteristic
curves. For test purposes, the input impedance is set to
50Ω with a resistor to ground and the output impedance is
set to 50Ω with a series output resistor. Voltage swings
reported in the Electrical Charateristics are taken directly
at the input and output pins, while load powers (dBm) are
defined at a matched 50Ω load. For the circuit of Figure 1,
the total effective load will be 100Ω || 804Ω = 89Ω. One
optional component is included in Figure 1. In addition to
the usual power-supply decoupling capacitors to ground,
a 0.1µF capacitor is included between the two
power-supply pins. In practical PC board layouts, this
optional added capacitor will typically improve the
2nd-harmonic distortion performance by 3dB to 6dB.
Figure 2 shows the DC-coupled, gain of −2V/V, dual
power-supply circuit used as the basis of the inverting
Typical Characteristic curves. Inverting operation offers
several performance benefits. Since there is no
common-mode signal across the input stage, the slew rate
for inverting operation is higher and the distortion
performance is slightly improved. An additional input
resistor, RT, is included in Figure 2 to set the input
impedance equal to 50Ω. The parallel combination of RT
and RG sets the input impedance. Both the noninverting
and inverting applications of Figure 1 and Figure 2 will
benefit from optimizing the feedback resistor (RF) value for
bandwidth (see the discussion in Setting Resistor Values
to Optimize Bandwidth). The typical design sequence is to
select the RF value for best bandwidth, set RG for the gain,
then set RT for the desired input impedance. As the gain
increases for the inverting configuration, a point will be
reached where RG will equal 50Ω, where RT is removed
and the input match is set by RG only. With RG fixed to
achieve an input match to 50Ω, RF is simply increased, to
increase gain. This will, however, quickly reduce the
achievable bandwidth, as shown by the inverting gain of
–10 frequency response in the Typical Characteristic
curves. For gains > 10V/V (14dB at the matched load),
noninverting operation is recommended to maintain
broader bandwidth.

gain), wideband inverting summing stages may be
implemented using the OPA694. The circuit in Figure 4
shows an example inverting summing amplifier, where the
resistor values have been adjusted to maintain both
maximum bandwidth and input impedance matching. If
each RF signal is assumed to be driven from a 50Ω source,
the NG for this circuit will be (1 + 100Ω/(100Ω/5)) = 6. The
total feedback impedance (from VO to the inverting error
current) is the sum of RF + (RI • NG). where RI is the
impedance looking into the inverting input from the
summing junction (see the Setting Resistor Values to
Optimize Performance section). Using 100Ω feedback (to
get a signal gain of –2 from each input to the output pin)
requires an additional 30Ω in series with the inverting input
to increase the feedback impedance. With this resistor
added to the typical internal RI = 30Ω, the total feedback
impedance is 100Ω + (60Ω • 6) = 460Ω, which is equal to
the required value to get a maximum bandwidth flat
frequency response for NG = 6.
Most modern, high-performance analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs), such as Texas Instruments ADS522x
series, require a low-noise, low-distortion driver. The
OPA694 combines low-voltage noise (2.1nV/√Hz) with low
harmonic distortion. Figure 3 shows an example of a
wideband, AC-coupled, 12-bit ADC driver.
Two OPA694s are used in the circuit of Figure 3 to form a
differential driver for the ADS5220. The two OPA694s offer
> 250MHz bandwidth at a differential gain of 5V/V, with a
2VPP output swing. A 2nd-order RLC filter is used in order
to limit the noise from the amplifier and provide some
attenuation for higher-frequency harmonic distortion.

can be controlled independently of the noise gain (NG,

SAW FILTER BUFFER
One common requirement in an IF strip is to buffer the
output of a mixer with enough gain to recover the insertion
loss of a narrowband SAW filter. Figure 5 shows one
possible configuration driving a SAW filter. The 2-Tone,
3rd-Order Intermodulation Intercept plot is shown in the
Typical Characteritics curves. Operating in the inverting
mode at a voltage gain of –8V/V, this circuit provides a 50Ω
input match using the gain set resistor, has the feedback
optimized for maximum bandwidth (250MHz in this case),
and drives through a 50Ω output resistor into the matching
network at the input of the SAW filter. If the SAW filter gives
a 12dB insertion loss, a net gain of 0dB to the 50Ω load at
the output of the SAW (which could be the input
impedance of the next IF amplifier or mixer) will be
delivered in the passband of the SAW filter. Using the
OPA694 in this application will isolate the first mixer from
the impedance of the SAW filter and provide very low
two-tone, 3rd-order spurious levels in the SAW filter
bandwidth.
This circuit removes the peaking by bootstrapping out any
parasitic effects on RG. The input impedance is still set by
RM as the apparent impedance looking into RG is very
high. RM may be increased to show a higher input
impedance, but larger values will start to impact DC output
offset voltage. This circuit creates an additional input offset
voltage as the difference in the two input bias currents
times the impedance to ground at VI. Figure 7 shows a
comparison of small-signal frequency response for the
unity gain buffer of Figure 1 compared to the improved
approach shown in Figure 6. Either approach gives a
low-power unity-gain buffer with > 1.56GHz bandwidth.

MACROMODELS AND APPLICATIONS SUPPORT
Computer simulation of circuit performance using SPICE
is often useful when analyzing the performance of analog
circuits and systems. This is particularly true for video and
RF amplifier circuits where parasitic capacitance and
inductance can have a major effect on circuit performance.
A SPICE model for the OPA694 is available through the TI
web site (www.ti.com). These models do a good job of
predicting small-signal AC and transient performance
under a wide variety of operating conditions. They do not
do as well in predicting the harmonic distortion or dG/dφ
characteristics. These models do not attempt to
distinguish between package types in their small-signal
AC performance.
OPERATING SUGGESTIONS
SETTING RESISTOR VALUES TO
OPTIMIZE BANDWIDTH
A current-feedback op amp like the OPA694 can hold an
almost constant bandwidth over signal gain settings with
the proper adjustment of the external resistor values. This
is shown in the Typical Characteristic curves; the
small-signal bandwidth decreases only slightly with
increasing gain. Those curves also show that the feedback
resistor has been changed for each gain setting. The
resistor values on the inverting side of the circuit for a
current-feedback op amp can be treated as frequency
response compensation elements while their ratios set
the signal gain. Figure 8 shows the small-signal frequency
response analysis circuit for the OPA694.
Figure 8. Recommended Feedback Resistor
Versus Noise Gain
The key elements of this current-feedback op amp model
are:
α
→ Buffer gain from the noninverting input to the
inverting input
RI
→ Buffer output impedance
iERR → Feedback error current signal
Z(s) → Frequency dependent open-loop transimpedance gain from iERR to VO
The buffer gain is typically very close to 1.00 and is
normally neglected from signal gain considerations. It will,
however, set the CMRR for a single op amp differential
amplifier configuration. For a buffer gain α < 1.0, the
CMRR = –20 × log (1– α) dB.
RI, the buffer output impedance, is a critical portion of the
bandwidth control equation. RI for the OPA694 is typically
about 30Ω.
A current-feedback op amp senses an error current in the
inverting node (as opposed to a differential input error
voltage for a voltage-feedback op amp) and passes this on
to the output through an internal frequency dependent
transimpedance gain. The Typical Characteristics show
this open-loop transimpedance response. This is
analogous to the open-loop voltage gain curve for a
voltage-feedback op amp. Developing the transfer
function for the circuit of Figure 8 gives Equation (1):

(2)
If 20 × log(RF + NG × RI) were drawn on top of the
open-loop transimpedance plot, the difference between
the two would be the loop gain at a given frequency.
Eventually, Z(S) rolls off to equal the denominator of
Equation (2), at which point the loop gain reduces to 1 (and
the curves intersect). This point of equality is where the
amplifier closed-loop frequency response given by
Equation (1) starts to roll off, and is exactly analogous to
the frequency at which the noise gain equals the open-loop
voltage gain for a voltage-feedback op amp. The
difference here is that the total impedance in the
denominator of Equation (2) may be controlled somewhat
separately from the desired signal gain (or NG).
The OPA694 is internally compensated to give a
maximally flat frequency response for RF = 402Ω at
NG = 2 on ±5V supplies. Evaluating the denominator of
Equation (2) (which is the feedback transimpedance)
gives an optimal target of 462Ω. As the signal gain
changes, the contribution of the NG × RI term in the
feedback transimpedance will change, but the total can be
held constant by adjusting RF. Equation (3) gives an
approximate equation for optimum RF over signal gain:
R F + 462W * NG @ RI
(3)
As the desired signal gain increases, this equation will
eventually predict a negative RF. A somewhat subjective
limit to this adjustment can also be set by holding RG to a
minimum value of 20Ω. Lower values will load both the
buffer stage at the input and the output stage, if RF gets too
low, actually decreasing the bandwidth. Figure 9 shows
the recommended RF versus NG for ±5V operation. The
values for RF versus gain shown here are approximately
equal to the values used to generate the Typical
Characteristics. They differ in that the optimized values
used in the Typical Characteristics are also correcting for
board parasitics not considered in the simplified analysis
leading to Equation (2). The values shown in Figure 9 give
a good starting point for design where bandwidth
optimization is desired.

This is written in a loop-gain analysis format, where the
errors arising from a noninfinite open-loop gain are shown
in the denominator. If Z(S) were infinite over all frequencies,
the denominator of Equation (1) would reduce to 1 and the
ideal desired signal gain shown in the numerator would be
achieved. The fraction in the denominator of Equation (1)
determines the frequency response. Equation (2) shows
this as the loop-gain equation:

Noise Gain
Figure 9. Feedback Resistor vs Noise Gain
The total impedance going into the inverting input may be
used to adjust the closed-loop signal bandwidth. Inserting
a series resistor between the inverting input and the
summing junction will increase the feedback impedance
(denominator of Equation (1)), decreasing the bandwidth.
This approach to bandwidth control is used for the
inverting summing circuit on the front page. The internal
buffer output impedance for the OPA694 is slightly
influenced by the source impedance looking out of the
noninverting input terminal. High source resistors will have
the effect of increasing RI, decreasing the bandwidth.
OUTPUT CURRENT AND VOLTAGE
The OPA694 provides output voltage and current
capabilities that are not usually found in wideband
amplifiers. Under no-load conditions at 25°C, the output
voltage typically swings closer than 1.2V to either supply
rail; the +25°C swing limit is within 1.2V of either rail. Into
a 15Ω load (the minimum tested load), it is tested to deliver
more than ±60mA.
The specifications described above, though familiar in the
industry, consider voltage and current limits separately. In
many applications, it is the voltage × current, or V−I
product, which is more relevant to circuit operation. Refer
to the Output Voltage and Current Limitations plot in the
Typical Characteristics. The X and Y axes of this graph
show the zero-voltage output current limit and the
zero-current output voltage limit, respectively. The four
quadrants give a more detailed view of the OPA694 output
drive capabilities, noting that the graph is bounded by a
Safe Operating Area of 1W maximum internal power

dissipation. Superimposing resistor load lines onto the plot
shows that the OPA694 can drive ±2.5V into 25Ω or ±3.5V
into 50Ω without exceeding the output capabilities or the
1W dissipation limit. A 100Ω load line (the standard test
circuit load) shows the full ±3.4V output swing capability,
as shown in the Electrical Charateristics.
The minimum specified output voltage and current
over-temperature are set by worst-case simulations at the
cold temperature extreme. Only at cold startup will the
output current and voltage decrease to the numbers
shown in the Electrical Characteristic tables. As the output
transistors deliver power, the junction temperatures will
increase, decreasing both VBE (increasing the available
output voltage swing) and increasing the 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.
DRIVING CAPACITIVE LOADS
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 ADC—including
additional external capacitance that may be
recommended to improve ADC linearity. A high-speed,
high open-loop gain amplifier like the OPA694 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 amplifier open−loop output
resistance is considered, this capacitive load introduces
an additional pole in the signal path that can decrease the
phase margin. Several external solutions to this problem
have been suggested. 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. This does not eliminate the
pole from the loop response, but rather shifts it and adds
a zero at a higher frequency. The additional zero acts to
cancel the phase lag from the capacitive load pole, thus
increasing the phase margin and improving stability.
The Typical Characteristics show the recommended RS vs
Capacitive Load and the resulting frequency response at
the load. Parasitic capacitive loads greater than 2pF can
begin to degrade the performance of the OPA694. Long
PC-board traces, unmatched cables, and connections to
multiple devices can easily cause this value to be
exceeded. Always consider this effect carefully, and add
the recommended series resistor as close as possible to
the OPA694 output pin (see the Board Layout Guidelines
section).
DISTORTION PERFORMANCE
The OPA694 provides good distortion performance into a
100Ω load on ±5V supplies. 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—in the noninverting
configuration (see Figure 1), this is the sum of RF + RG,
while in the inverting configuration it is just RF. Also,
providing an additional supply decoupling capacitor
(0.1µF) between the supply pins (for bipolar operation)
improves the 2nd-order distortion slightly (3dB to 6dB).
In most op amps, increasing the output voltage swing
increases harmonic distortion directly. The Typical
Characteristics show the 2nd-harmonic increasing at a
little less than the expected 2x rate, while the 3rd-harmonic
increases at a little less than the expected 3x rate. Where
the test power doubles, the 2nd-harmonic increases by
less than the expected 6dB, while the 3rd-harmonic
increases by less than the expected 12dB. This also
shows up in the 2-tone, 3rd-order intermodulation spurious
(IM3) response curves. The 3rd-order spurious levels are
extremely low at low output power levels. The output stage
continues to hold them low even as the fundamental power
reaches very high levels. As the Typical Characteristics
show, the spurious intermodulation powers do not
increase as predicted by a traditional intercept model. As
the fundamental power level increases, the dynamic range
does not decrease significantly.

NOISE PERFORMANCE
Wideband, current-feedback op amps generally have a
higher output noise than comparable voltage-feedback op
amps. The OPA694 offers an excellent balance between
voltage and current noise terms to achieve low output
noise. The inverting current noise (24pA/√Hz) is
significantly lower than earlier solutions, while the input
voltage noise (2.1nV/√Hz) is lower than most unity-gain
stable, wideband, voltage-feedback op amps. This low
input voltage noise was achieved at the price of higher
noninverting input current noise (22pA/√Hz). As long as
the AC source impedance looking out of the noninverting
node is less than 100Ω, this current noise will not
contribute significantly to the total output noise. The op
amp input voltage noise and the two input current noise
terms combine to give low output noise under a wide
variety of operating conditions. Figure 10 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.

A current-feedback op amp like the OPA694 provides
exceptional bandwidth in high gains, giving fast pulse
settling, but only moderate DC accuracy. The Electrical
Characteristics show an input offset voltage comparable to
high-speed, voltage-feedback amplifiers. However, the
two input bias currents are somewhat higher and are
unmatched. Whereas bias current cancellation
techniques are very effective with most voltage-feedback
op amps, they do not generally reduce the output DC offset
for wideband, current-feedback op amps. Since the two
input bias currents are unrelated in both magnitude and
polarity, matching the source impedance looking out of
each input to reduce their error contribution to the output
is ineffective. Evaluating the configuration of Figure 1,
using worst-case +25°C input offset voltage and the two
input bias currents, gives a worst-case output offset range
equal to:
where NG = noninverting signal gain
The total output spot noise voltage can be computed as the
square root of the sum of all squared output noise voltage
contributors. Equation (4) shows the general form for the
output noise voltage using the terms shown in Figure 10.

Evaluating these two equations for the OPA694 circuit and
component values (see Figure 1) gives a total output spot
noise voltage of 11.2nV/√Hz and a total equivalent input
spot noise voltage of 5.6nV/√Hz. This total input-referred
spot noise voltage is higher than the 2.1nV/√Hz
specification for the op amp voltage noise alone. This
reflects the noise added to the output by the inverting
current noise times the feedback resistor. If the feedback
resistor is reduced in high-gain configurations (as
suggested previously), the total input-referred voltage
noise given by Equation (5) will approach just the
2.1nV/√Hz of the op amp itself. For example, going to a
gain of +10 using RF = 178Ω will give a total input-referred
noise of 2.36nV/√Hz.

A fine-scale, output offset null, or DC operating point
adjustment, is sometimes required. Numerous techniques
are available for introducing DC offset control into an op
amp circuit. Most simple adjustment techniques do not
correct for temperature drift. It is possible to combine a
lower speed, precision op amp with the OPA694 to get the
DC accuracy of the precision op amp along with the signal
bandwidth of the OPA694. Figure 11 shows a noninverting
G = +10 circuit that holds an output offset voltage less than
±7.5mV over-temperature with > 150MHz signal
bandwidth.

Figure 11. Wideband, DC-Connected Composite
Circuit
This DC-coupled circuit provides very high signal
bandwidth using the OPA694. At lower frequencies, the
output voltage is attenuated by the signal gain and
compared to the original input voltage at the inputs of the
OPA237 (this is a low-cost, precision voltage-feedback op
amp with 1.5MHz gain bandwidth product). If these two do
not agree (due to DC offsets introduced by the OPA694),
the OPA237 sums in a correction current through the
2.86kΩ inverting summing path. Several design
considerations will allow this circuit to be optimized. First,
the feedback to the OPA237 noninverting input must be
precisely matched to the high-speed signal gain. Making
the 2kΩ resistor to ground an adjustable resistor would
allow the low- and high-frequency gains to be precisely
matched. Second, the crossover frequency region where
the OPA237 passes control to the OPA694 must occur with
exceptional phase linearity. These two issues reduce to
designing for pole/zero cancellation in the overall transfer
function. Using the 2.86kΩ resistor will nominally satisfy
this requirement for the circuit in Figure 11. Perfect
cancellation over process and temperature is not possible.
However, this initial resistor setting and precise gain
matching will minimize long-term pulse settling tails.
Due to the high output power capability of the OPA694,
heatsinking or forced airflow may be required under
extreme operating conditions. 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
150°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 a grounded
resistive load, be at a maximum when the output is fixed at
a voltage equal to 1/2 either supply voltage (for equal bipolar
supplies). Under this condition PDL = VS2/(4 × RL) where RL
includes feedback network loading.
Note that it is the power in the output stage and not in the
load that determines internal power dissipation.
As a worst-case example, compute the maximum TJ using
an OPA694IDBV (SOT23-5 package) in the circuit of
Figure 1 operating at the maximum specified ambient
temperature of +85°C and driving a grounded 20Ω load to
+2.5V DC:
PD = 10V × 6.0mA + 52/(4 × (20Ω || 804Ω)) = 380mΩ
Maximum TJ = +85°C + (0.38W × (150°C/W) = 142°C
Although this is still below the specified maximum junction
temperature, system reliability considerations may require
lower junction temperatures. Remember, this is a
worst-case internal power dissipation—use your actual
signal and load to compute PDL. The highest possible
internal dissipation will occur if the load requires current to
be forced into the output for positive output voltages or
sourced from the output for negative output voltages. This
puts a high current through a large internal voltage drop in
the output transistors. The Output Voltage and Current
Limitations plot shown in the Typical Characteristics
includes a boundary for 1W maximum internal power
dissipation under these conditions.

BOARD LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Achieving optimum performance with a high-frequency
amplifier like the OPA694 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 (on pins 4 and 7) should always be decoupled
with these capacitors. An optional supply decoupling
capacitor 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 frequencies, 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.
c) Careful selection and placement of external
components will preserve the high-frequency
performance of the OPA694. Resistors should be a very
low reactance type. Surface-mount resistors work best
and allow a tighter overall layout. Metal-film and carbon
composition, axially-leaded resistors can also provide
good high-frequency performance. Again, keep their leads
and PC-board trace length 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 noninverting 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. The
frequency response is primarily determined by the
feedback resistor value, as described previously.
Increasing its value will reduce the bandwidth, while
decreasing it will give a more peaked frequency response.
The 402Ω feedback resistor used in the Electrical
18
Characteristic tables at a gain of +2 on ±5V supplies is a
good starting point for design. Note that a 430Ω feedback
resistor, rather than a direct short, is recommended for the
unity-gain follower application. A current-feedback op amp
requires a feedback resistor even in the unity-gain follower
configuration to control stability.
d) Connections to other wideband devices on the board
may be made with short, direct traces or through onboard
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 OPA694 is nominally
compensated to operate with a 2pF parasitic load. 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 onboard, 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 OPA694
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. The high output
voltage and current capability of the OPA694 allows
multiple destination devices to be handled as separate
transmission lines, each with their own series and shunt
terminations. 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 like the OPA694 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
OPA694 onto the board.

INPUT AND ESD PROTECTION
The OPA694 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 have
limited ESD protection using internal diodes to the power
supplies, as shown in Figure 12.
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 (for example,
in systems with ±15V supply parts driving into the
OPA694), 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.
