The OPA2680’s low 6.4mA/ch. supply current is precisely trimmed at 25°C. This trim, along with low temperature drift, guarantees lower maximum supply current
than competing products. System power may be reduced
further using the optional disable control pin (SO-14
package only). Leaving this disable pin open, or holding
it high, will operate the OPA2680N normally. If pulled
low, the OPA2680N supply current drops to less than
600µA while the output goes into a high impedance state.
The OPA2680 represents a major step forward in unity
gain stable, voltage feedback op amps. A new internal
architecture provides slew rate and full power bandwidth previously found only in wideband current feedback op amps. A new output stage architecture delivers
high currents with a minimal headroom requirement.
These combine to give exceptional single supply operation. Using a single +5V supply, the OPA2680 can
deliver a 1V to 4V output swing with over 100mA drive
current and 150MHz bandwidth. This combination of
features makes the OPA2680 an ideal RGB line driver
or single supply ADC input driver.

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.

200Ω source resistance seen at the inverting input (see the
DC Accuracy and Offset Control section). 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.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
WIDEBAND VOLTAGE FEEDBACK OPERATION
The OPA2680 provides an exceptional combination of high
output power capability in a dual, wideband, unity gain
stable voltage feedback op amp using a new high slew rate
input stage. Typical differential input stages used for voltage
feedback op amps are designed to steer a fixed-bias current
to the compensation capacitor, setting a limit to the achievable slew rate. The OPA2680 uses a new input stage which
places the transconductance element between two input
buffers, using their output currents as the forward signal. As
the error voltage increases across the two inputs, an increasing current is delivered to the compensation capacitor. This
provides very high slew rate (1800V/µs) while consuming
relatively low quiescent current (6.4mA/ch.). This exceptional full power performance comes at the price of a slightly
higher input noise voltage than alternative architectures. The
4.8nV/√Hz input voltage noise for the OPA2680 is exceptionally low for this type of input stage.
Figure 2 shows the AC-coupled, gain of +2, single supply
circuit configuration which is the basis of the +5V Specifications and Typical Performance Curves. Though not a “railto-rail” design, the OPA2680 requires minimal input and
output voltage headroom compared to other very wideband
voltage feedback op amps. It will deliver a 3Vp-p output
swing on a single +5V supply with >150MHz bandwidth.
The key requirement of broadband single-supply operation is
to maintain input and output signal swings within the useable
voltage ranges at both the input and the output. The circuit
of Figure 2 establishes an input midpoint bias using a simple
resistive divider from the +5V supply (two 698Ω resistors).
Separate networks would be required at each input. The
input signal is then AC-coupled into the midpoint voltage
bias. The input voltage can swing to within 1.5V of either
supply pin, giving a 2Vp-p input signal range centered
between the supply pins. The input impedance matching
resistor (59Ω) used for testing is adjusted to give a 50Ω input
load when the parallel combination of the biasing divider
network is included. Again, an additional resistor (50Ω in
this case) is included directly in series with the non-inverting
input. This minimum recommended value provides part of
the DC source resistance matching for the non-inverting
input bias current. It is also used to form a simple parasitic
pole to roll off the frequency response at very high frequencies (>500MHz) using the input parasitic capacitance. The
gain resistor (RG) is AC-coupled, giving the circuit a DC
gain of +1, which puts the input DC bias voltage (2.5V) on
the output as well. The output voltage can swing to within
1V of either supply pin while delivering >100mA output
Figure 1 shows the DC-coupled, gain of +2, dual power
supply circuit configuration used as the basis of the ±5V
Specifications and Typical Performance Curves. This is for
one channel. The other channel is connected similarly. 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
specifications are taken directly at the input and output pins,
while output powers (dBm) are at the matched 50Ω load. For
the circuit of Figure 1, the total effective load will be 100Ω
|| 804Ω. The disable control line (SO-14 package only) is
typically left open to guarantee normal amplifier operation.
Two optional components are included in Figure 1. An
additional resistor (175Ω) is included in series with the noninverting input. Combined with the 25Ω DC source resistance looking back towards the signal generator, this gives an
input bias current cancelling resistance that matches the

SINGLE SUPPLY A/D CONVERTER INTERFACE
Most modern, high performance analog-to-digital converters (such as the Burr-Brown ADS8xx and ADS9xx series)
operate on a single +5V (or lower) power supply. It has been
a considerable challenge for single supply op amps to
deliver a low distortion input signal at the ADC input for
signal frequencies exceeding 5MHz. The high slew rate,
exceptional output swing and high linearity of the OPA2680
make it an ideal single supply ADC driver. The circuit on the
front page shows one possible interface particularly suited to
DC-coupled pulse digitization requirements. Figure 3 shows
the AC-coupled test circuit of Figure 2 modified for a
capacitive (A/D) load and with an optional output pull-down
resistor (RB).

High frequency DDS DACs require a low distortion output
amplifier to retain their SFDR performance into real-world
loads. A differential output drive implementation is shown
in Figure 5. The diagram shows the signal output current(s)
connected into the virtual ground summing junction(s) of
the OPA2680, which is set up as a transimpedance stage or
“I-V converter”. If the DAC requires its outputs terminated
to a compliance voltage other than ground for operation,
the appropriate voltage level may be applied to the noninverting inputs of the OPA2680. The DC gain for this
circuit is equal to RF. At high frequencies, the DAC output
capacitance (CD in Figure 5) will produce a zero in the
noise gain for the OPA2680 that may cause peaking in the
closed-loop frequency response. CF is added across RF to
compensate for this noise gain peaking. To achieve a flat

FIGURE 4. SFDR vs IB.
The OPA2680 in the circuit of Figure 3 provides >200MHz
bandwidth for a 2Vp-p output swing. Minimal 3rd harmonic
distortion or two-tone, 3rd-order intermodulation distortion
will be observed due to the very low crossover distortion in
the OPA2680 output stage. The limit of output Spurious
Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) will be set by the 2nd harmonic distortion. Without RB, the circuit of Figure 3 measured at 10MHz shows an SFDR of 65dBc. This may be
improved by pulling additional DC bias current (IB) out of
the output stage through the optional RB resistor to ground
(the output midpoint is at 2.5V for Figure 3). Adjusting IB
gives the improvement in SFDR shown in Figure 4. SFDR
improvement is achieved for IB values up to 6mA, with
worse performance for higher values. Using the dual
OPA2680 in an IQ receiver channel will give matched AC
performance through high frequencies.

transimpedance frequency response, the pole in each feedback network should be set to:
One common application for video speed amplifiers which
include a disable pin is to wire multiple amplifier outputs
together, then select which one of several possible video
inputs to source onto a single line. This simple “Wired-OR
Video Multiplexer” can be easily implemented using the
OP2680N (SO-14 package only) as shown in Figure 6.
1/2πRFCF = √GBP/4πRFCD
which will give a corner frequency f–3dB of approximately:
f–3dB = √GBP/(2πRFCD)
Typically, channel switching is performed either on sync or
retrace time in the video signal. The two inputs are approximately equal at this time. The “make-before-break” disable
characteristic of the OPA2680N ensures that there is always
one amplifier controlling the line when using a wired-OR
circuit like that shown in Figure 6. Since both inputs may be
on for a short period during the transition between channels,
the outputs are combined through the output impedance
matching resistors (82.5Ω in this case). When one channel is
disabled, its feedback network forms part of the output
impedance and slightly attenuates the signal in getting out
onto the cable. The gain and output matching resistor have
been slightly increased to get a signal gain of +1 at the
matched load and provide a 75Ω output impedance to the
cable. The video multiplexer connection (Figure 6) also
insures that the maximum differential voltage across the
inputs of the unselected channel does not exceed the rated
±1.2V maximum for standard video signal levels.

The section on Disable Operation shows the turn-on and
turn-off switching glitches using a 0V input for a single
channel is typically less than ±50mV. Where two outputs are
switched (as shown in Figure 6), the output line is always
under the control of one amplifier or the other due to the
“make-before-break” disable timing. In this case, the switching glitches for two 0V inputs drop to <20mV.

OPA2680
HIGH SPEED DELAY CIRCUIT
with TD = (1/360) • (dφ/df) = delay of the op amp itself. The
values of resistors RF and RG should be equal and low to
avoid parasitic effects. If the all-pass filter is designed for
very low delay times, include parasitic board capacitances
to calculate the correct delay time. Simulating this application using the PSPICE model of the OPA2680 will allow this
design to be tuned.
The OPA2680 makes an ideal amplifier for a variety of
active filter designs. Shown in Figure 7 is a circuit that
utilizes the two amplifiers within the dual OPA2680 to
design a two-stage analog group delay adjustment circuit.
For simplicity, the circuit assumes a dual supply (±5V)
operation, but it can also be modified to operate on signal
supply. The input to the first filter stage is driven by the
wideband buffer amplifier, BUF601 to isolate the signal
input from the filter network. The BUF601 features an openloop design, holding its output impedance at 4Ω for frequencies in excess of 200MHz.
DIFFERENTIAL RECEIVER/DRIVER
A very versatile application for a dual operational amplier
is the differential amplifier configuration shown in Figure
8. With both amplifiers of the OPA2680 connected for
non-inverting operation, the circuit provides a high input
impedance while the gain can easily be set by just one
resistor, RG. When operated in low gains, the output swing
may be limited as a result of the common-mode input
swing limits of the amplifier itself. An interesting modification of this circuit is to place a capacitor in series with
the RG. Now the DC gain for each side is reduced to +1,
while the AC gain still follows the standard transfer function of G = 1 + 2RF/RG. This might be advantageous for
applications processing only a frequency band which excludes DC or very low frequencies. An input DC voltage
resulting from input bias currents will not be amplified by
the AC gain and can be kept low. This circuit can be used
as a differential line receiver, driver, or as an interface to
a differential input A/D converter.
Each of the two filter stages is a 1st-order filter with a
voltage gain of +1. The delay time through one filter is given
by Equation 1.
Equation 1:
tGR0 = 2RC
For a more accurate analysis of the circuit consider the group
delay for the amplifiers. For example, in the case of the
OPA2680, the group delay in the bandwidth from 1MHz to

DESIGN-IN TOOLS
A good rule of thumb is to target the parallel combination of
RF and RG (Figure 1) to be less than approximately 300Ω.
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 2pF total parasitic on the inverting node, holding RF || RG < 300Ω will keep this pole above 250MHz. 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.

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 factor), most amplifiers will exhibit a more complex response with lower phase margin. The OPA2680 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 220MHz, far exceeding that predicted by
dividing the 300MHz 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 30MHz bandwidth shown in the
Typical Specifications agrees with that predicted using the
simple formula and the typical GBP of 300MHz.

any of these boards.
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 OPA2680 is available through either
the Burr-Brown Internet web page (http://www.burrbrown.com) or as one model on a disk from the Burr-Brown
Applications Department (1-800-548-6132). The Application Department is also available for design assistance at this
number. These models do a good job of predicting smallsignal AC and transient performance under a wide variety of
operating conditions. They do not do as well in predicting
the harmonic distortion or dG/dP characteristics. These
models do not attempt to distinguish between the package
types in their small-signal AC performance.
The frequency response in a gain of +2 may be modified to
achieve exceptional flatness simply by increasing the noise
gain to 2.5. One way to do this, without affecting the +2
signal gain, is to add an 804Ω resistor across the two inputs
in the circuit of Figure 1. A similar technique may be used
to reduce peaking in unity gain (voltage follower) applications. For example, by using a 402Ω feedback resistor along
with a 402Ω resistor across the two op amp inputs, the
voltage follower response will be similar to the gain of +2
response of Figure 2. Reducing the value of the resistor
across the op amp inputs will further limit the frequency
response due to increased noise gain.
OPERATING SUGGESTIONS
OPTIMIZING RESISTOR VALUES
Since the OPA2680 is a unity gain stable 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,
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 of the OPA2680. Above 1.5kΩ, the
typical parasitic capacitance (approximately 0.2pF) across
the feedback resistor may cause unintentional band-limiting
in the amplifier response.
The OPA2680 exhibits minimal bandwidth reduction going
to single supply (+5V) operation as compared with ±5V.
This is because the internal bias control circuitry retains
nearly constant quiescent current as the total supply voltage
between the supply pins is changed.
INVERTING AMPLIFIER OPERATION
Since the OPA2680 is a general purpose, wideband voltage feedback op amp, all of the familiar op amp application circuits are available to the designer. Inverting operation is one of the more common requirements and offers

several performance benefits. Figure 9 shows a typical
inverting configuration where the I/O impedances and
signal gain from Figure 1 are retained in an inverting
circuit configuration.
ance is added in series with RG for calculating the noise gain
(NG). The resultant NG is 2.8 for Figure 9, as opposed to only
2 if RM could be eliminated as discussed above. The bandwidth will therefore be slightly lower for the gain of –2 circuit
of Figure 9 than for the gain of +2 circuit of Figure 1.
The third important consideration in inverting amplifier
design is setting the bias current cancellation resistor on the
non-inverting input (RB). 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. If the 50Ω source
impedance is DC-coupled in Figure 9, the total resistance to
ground on the inverting input will be 228Ω. Combining this
in parallel with the feedback resistor gives the RB = 146Ω
used in this example. To reduce the additional high frequency noise introduced by this resistor, it is sometimes
bypassed with a capacitor. As long as RB <350Ω, the
capacitor is not required since the total noise contribution of
all other terms will be less than that of the op amp’s input
noise voltage. As a minimum, the OPA2680 requires an RB
value of 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 OPA2680 provides output voltage and current capabilities that are unsurpassed in a low cost monolithic op amp.
Under no-load conditions at +25°C, the output voltage
typically swings closer than 1V to either supply rail; the
guaranteed swing limit is within 1.2V of either rail. Into a
15Ω load (the minimum tested load), it is guaranteed to
deliver more than ±135mA.
FIGURE 9. Gain of –2 Example Circuit.
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
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 8, 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.
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
Performance Curves. 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 OPA2680’s output drive capabilities, noting that the graph is bounded by a “Safe Operating
Area” of 1W maximum internal power dissipation for each
channel separately. Superimposing resistor load lines onto
the plot shows that the OPA2680 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 ±3.9V output swing capability, as shown in the typical specifications.
The minimum specified output voltage and current specifications 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 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
The second major consideration, touched on in the previous
paragraph, is that the signal source impedance becomes part
of the noise gain equation and influences the bandwidth. For
the example in Figure 9, the RM value combines in parallel
with the external 50Ω source impedance, yielding an effective driving impedance of 50Ω || 67Ω = 28.6Ω. This imped®

voltage and current will always be greater than that shown
in the over-temperature specifications since the output stage

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. However, shorting the output pin directly to the
adjacent positive power supply pin (8-pin packages) will, in
most cases, destroy the amplifier. Including a small series
resistor (5Ω) in the power supply line will protect against
this. Always place the 0.1µF decoupling capacitor directly
on the supply pins.

FIGURE 10. Capacitive Load Driving with Noise Gain Tuning.
This gain of +2 circuit includes a noise gain tuning resistor
across the two inputs to increase the noise gain, increasing
the unloaded phase margin for the op amp. Although this
technique will reduce the required RS resistor for a given
capacitive load, it does increase the noise at the output. It
also will decrease the loop gain, nominally decreasing the
distortion performance. If, however, the dominant distortion
mechanism arises from a high RS value, significant dynamic
range improvement can be achieved using this technique.
Figure 11 shows the required RS versus CLOAD parametric on
noise gain using this technique. This is the circuit of Figure
10 with RNG adjusted to increase the noise gain (increasing
the phase margin) then sweeping CLOAD and finding the
required RS to get a flat frequency response. This plot also
gives the required RS versus CLOAD for the OPA2680 operated at higher signal gains.
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 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 OPA2680 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’s 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 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 OPA2680.
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 OPA2680 output pin (see
Board Layout Guidelines).

DISTORTION PERFORMANCE
The criterion for setting this RS resistor is a maximum
bandwidth, flat frequency response at the load. For the
OPA2680 operating in 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
reduce the peaking as described previously. The circuit of
Figure 10 demonstrates this technique, allowing lower values of RS to be used for a given capacitive load.
The OPA2680 provides good distortion performance into a
100Ω load on ±5V supplies. Relative to alternative solutions, it provides exceptional performance into lighter loads
and/or operating on a single +5V 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 im®

OPA2680
proves distortion directly. Remember that the total load
includes the feedback network; in the non-inverting configuration (Figure 1) this is 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).
The total output spot noise voltage can be computed as the
square root of the sum of all squared output noise voltage
contributors. Equation 3 shows the general form for the
output noise voltage using the terms shown in Figure 12.
Equation 3:
EO =
In most op amps, increasing the output voltage swing increases harmonic distortion directly. The new output stage
used in the OPA2680 actually holds the difference between
fundamental power and the 2nd and 3rd harmonic powers
relatively constant with increasing output power until very
large output swings are required (>4Vp-p). This also shows
up in the two-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 Performance Curves 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. For 2 tones centered at 20MHz, with
10dBm/tone into a matched 50Ω load (i.e., 2Vp-p for each
tone at the load, which requires 8Vp-p for the overall twotone envelope at the output pin), the Typical Performance
Curves show 57dBc difference between the test tone powers
and the 3rd-order intermodulation spurious powers. This
exceptional performance improves further when operating at
lower frequencies.
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 OPA2680
gives even tighter control than comparable amplifiers. Although the high speed input stage does require relatively
high input bias current (typically 14µA out of each input
terminal), the close matching between them may be used to
reduce the output DC error caused by this current. The total
output offset voltage may be considerably reduced by matching the DC source resistances appearing at the two inputs.
This reduces the output DC error due to the input bias
currents to the offset current times the feedback resistor.
Evaluating the configuration of Figure 1, using worst-case
+25°C input offset voltage and current specifications, gives
a worst-case output offset voltage equal to:
EO
ERS
RF
RG

Evaluating these two equations for the OPA2680 circuit and
component values shown in Figure 1 will give a total output
spot noise voltage of 11nV/√Hz and a total equivalent input
spot noise voltage of 5.5nV/√Hz. This is including the noise
added by the bias current cancellation resistor (175Ω) on the
non-inverting input. This total input-referred spot noise
voltage is only slightly higher than the 4.8nV/√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
300Ω. Keeping both (RF || RG) and the non-inverting input
source impedance less than 300Ω will satisfy both noise and
frequency response flatness considerations. Since the resistor-induced noise is relatively negligible, additional capacitive decoupling across the bias current cancellation resistor
(RB) for the inverting op amp configuration of Figure 9 is not
required.

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 4.8nV/√Hz input voltage noise for
the OPA2680 is, however, much lower than comparable
amplifiers. The input-referred voltage noise, and the two
input-referred current noise terms, combine to give low
output noise under a wide variety of operating conditions.

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 eventually reduce to 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. However, the DC offset voltage on
the summing junction will set up a DC current back into the
source which must be considered. Applying an offset adjustment to the inverting op amp input can change the noise gain
and frequency response flatness. For a DC-coupled inverting amplifier, Figure 13 shows one example of an offset
adjustment technique that has minimal impact on the signal
frequency response. In this case, the DC offsetting current is
brought 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.

eventually turning on those two diodes (≈100uA). At this
point, any further current pulled out of VDIS goes through
those diodes holding the emitter-base voltage of Q1 at
approximately zero volts. This shuts off the collector current
out of Q1, turning the amplifier off. The supply current in
the disable mode are only those required to operate the
circuit of Figure 14. Additional circuitry ensures that turn-on
time occurs faster than turn-off time (make-before-break).
When disabled, the output and input nodes go to a high
impedance state. If the OPA2680 is operating in a gain of
+1, this will show a very high impedance at the output and
exceptional signal isolation. If operating at a gain greater
than +1, the total feedback network resistance (RF + RG) will
appear as the impedance looking back into the output, but
the circuit will still show very high forward and reverse
isolation. If configured as an inverting amplifier, the input
and output will be connected through the feedback network
resistance (RF + RG) and the isolation will be very poor as a
result.

The transition edge rate (dv/dt) of the DIS control line will
influence this glitch. For the plot of Figure 15, the edge rate

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
Due to the high output power capability of the OPA2680,
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 175°C.
c) Careful selection and placement of external components will preserve the high frequency performance of
the OPA2680. Resistors should be a very low reactance
type. Surface-mount resistors work best and allow a tighter
overall layout. Metal film or carbon composition axiallyleaded 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 surface-mount 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 402Ω feedback used in the typical performance specifications is a good starting point for design.
Note that a 25Ω feedback resistor, rather than a direct short,
is suggested for the unity gain follower application. This
effectively isolates the inverting input capacitance from the
output pin that would otherwise cause additional peaking in
the gain of +1 frequency response.
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 of 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 into the
load that determines internal power dissipation.
As a worst-case example, compute the maximum TJ using an
OPA2680U (SO-8 package) in the circuit of Figure 1 operating at the maximum specified ambient temperature of +85°C
and with both outputs driving a grounded 20Ω load to +2.5V.
PD = 10V • 14.4mA + 2 [52/(4•(20Ω || 804Ω))] = 785mW
Maximum TJ = +85°C + (0.79W • 125°C/W) = 184°C.
This absolute worst-case condition exceeds the specified
maximum junction temperature. Actual PDL will always be
less than that considered here. Carefully consider maximum
TJ in your application.
BOARD LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Achieving optimum performance with a high frequency
amplifier like the OPA2680 requires careful attention to
board layout parasitics and external component types. Recommendations that will optimize performance include:
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 (50 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
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

INPUT AND ESD PROTECTION
OPA2680 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 OPA2680
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 OPA2680 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.
The OPA2680 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 16.
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 OPA2680), 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.

e) Socketing a high speed part like the OPA2680 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 OPA2680
onto the board.
