PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD811 is a wideband current-feedback operational amplifier, optimized for broadcast quality video systems. The –3 dB
bandwidth of 120 MHz at a gain of +2 and differential gain and
phase of 0.01% and 0.01° (RL = 150 Ω) make the AD811 an
excellent choice for all video systems. The AD811 is designed to
meet a stringent 0.1 dB gain flatness specification to a bandwidth of 35 MHz (G = +2) in addition to the low differential
gain and phase errors. This performance is achieved whether
driving one or two back terminated 75 Ω cables, with a low
power supply current of 16.5 mA. Furthermore, the AD811 is
specified over a power supply range of ± 4.5 V to ± 18 V.

The AD811 is also excellent for pulsed applications where transient response is critical. It can achieve a maximum slew rate of
greater than 2500 V/µs with a settling time of less than 25 ns to
0.1% on a 2 volt step and 65 ns to 0.01% on a 10 volt step.
The AD811 is ideal as an ADC or DAC buffer in data acquisition systems due to its low distortion up to 10 MHz and its wide
unity gain bandwidth. Because the AD811 is a current feedback
amplifier, this bandwidth can be maintained over a wide range
of gains. The AD811 also offers low voltage and current noise of
1.9 nV/√Hz and 20 pA/√Hz, respectively, and excellent dc accuracy for wide dynamic range applications.

The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the
AD811 is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature.
For the plastic packages, the maximum safe junction temperature is +145°C. For the cerdip and LCC packages, the maximum junction temperature is +175°C. If these maximums are
exceeded momentarily, proper circuit operation will be restored
as soon as the die temperature is reduced. Leaving the device in
the “overheated” condition for an extended period can result in
device burnout. To ensure proper operation, it is important to
observe the derating curves in Figures 17 and 18.
While the AD811 is internally short circuit protected, this may
not be sufficient to guarantee that the maximum junction temperature is not exceeded under all conditions. One important
example is when the amplifier is driving a reverse terminated
75 Ω cable and the cable’s far end is shorted to a power supply.
With power supplies of ± 12 volts (or less) at an ambient temperature of +25°C or less, if the cable is shorted to a supply rail,
then the amplifier will not be destroyed, even if this condition
persists for an extended period.
NOTES
1
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

ESD SUSCEPTIBILITY
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic
charges as high as 4000 volts, which readily accumulate on the
human body and on test equipment, can discharge without
detection. Although the AD811 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may still occur on these
devices if they are subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended
to avoid any performance degradation or loss of functionality.

AD811
Achieving the Flattest Gain Response at High Frequency
APPLICATIONS
General Design Considerations
Achieving and maintaining gain flatness of better than 0.1 dB at
frequencies above 10 MHz requires careful consideration of
several issues.
The AD811 is a current feedback amplifier optimized for use in
high performance video and data acquisition applications. Since
it uses a current feedback architecture, its closed-loop –3 dB
bandwidth is dependent on the magnitude of the feedback resistor. The desired closed-loop gain and bandwidth are obtained
by varying the feedback resistor (RFB) to tune the bandwidth,
and varying the gain resistor (RG) to get the correct gain. Table I
contains recommended resistor values for a variety of useful
closed-loop gains and supply voltages.
Choice of Feedback and Gain Resistors
Because of the above-mentioned relationship between the 3 dB
bandwidth and the feedback resistor, the fine scale gain flatness
will, to some extent, vary with feedback resistor tolerance. It is,
therefore, recommended that resistors with a 1% tolerance be
used if it is desired to maintain flatness over a wide range of
production lots. In addition, resistors of different construction
have different associated parasitic capacitance and inductance.
Metal-film resistors were used for the bulk of the characterization for this data sheet. It is possible that values other than those
indicated will be optimal for other resistor types.

Printed Circuit Board Layout Considerations
As to be expected for a wideband amplifier, PC board parasitics
can affect the overall closed loop performance. Of concern are
stray capacitances at the output and the inverting input nodes. If
a ground plane is to be used on the same side of the board as
the signal traces, a space (3/16" is plenty) should be left around
the signal lines to minimize coupling. Additionally, signal lines
connecting the feedback and gain resistors should be short
enough so that their associated inductance does not cause
high frequency gain errors. Line lengths less than 1/4" are
recommended.
Quality of Coaxial Cable
Optimum flatness when driving a coax cable is possible only
when the driven cable is terminated at each end with a resistor
matching its characteristic impedance. If the coax was ideal,
then the resulting flatness would not be affected by the length of
the cable. While outstanding results can be achieved using inexpensive cables, it should be noted that some variation in flatness
due to varying cable lengths may be experienced.
Power Supply Bypassing
Adequate power supply bypassing can be critical when optimizing the performance of a high frequency circuit. Inductance in
the power supply leads can form resonant circuits that produce
peaking in the amplifier’s response. In addition, if large current
transients must be delivered to the load, then bypass capacitors
(typically greater than 1 µF) will be required to provide the best
settling time and lowest distortion. Although the recommended
0.1 µF power supply bypass capacitors will be sufficient in many
applications, more elaborate bypassing (such as using two paralleled capacitors) may be required in some cases.
Figures 11 and 12 illustrate the relationship between the feedback resistor and the frequency and time domain response characteristics for a closed-loop gain of +2. (The response at other
gains will be similar.)
The 3 dB bandwidth is somewhat dependent on the power supply
voltage. As the supply voltage is decreased for example, the
magnitude of internal junction capacitances is increased, causing
a reduction in closed-loop bandwidth. To compensate for this,
smaller values of feedback resistor are used at lower supply
voltages.

The feedback and gain resistor values in Table I will result in
very flat closed-loop responses in applications where the load
capacitances are below 10 pF. Capacitances greater than this
will result in increased peaking and overshoot, although not
necessarily in a sustained oscillation.

Figure 33 shows recommended resistor values for different load

results of this method. Note that it may be necessary to adjust
the gain setting resistor, RG, to correct for the attenuation which
results due to the divider formed by the series resistor, RS, and

VALUE OF RS – V
There are at least two very effective ways to compensate for this
effect. One way is to increase the magnitude of the feedback
resistor, which lowers the 3 dB frequency. The other method is
to include a small resistor in series with the output of the amplifier to isolate it from the load capacitance. The results of these
two techniques are illustrated in Figure 32. Using a 1.5 kΩ
feedback resistor, the output ripple is less than 0.5 dB when driving 100 pF. The main disadvantage of this method is that it
sacrifices a little bit of gain flatness for increased capacitive load
drive capability. With the second method, using a series resistor,
the loss of flatness does not occur.

Applications which require driving a large load capacitance at a
high slew rate are often limited by the output current available
from the driving amplifier. For example, an amplifier limited to
25 mA output current cannot drive a 500 pF load at a slew rate
greater than 50 V/µs. However, because of the AD811’s 100 mA
output current, a slew rate of 200 V/µs is achievable when driving this same 500 pF capacitor (see Figure 34).

Operation as a Video Line Driver
1V
The AD811 has been designed to offer outstanding performance at closed-loop gains of one or greater, while driving
multiple reverse-terminated video loads. The lowest differential
gain and phase errors will be obtained when using ± 15 volt
power supplies. With ± 12 volt supplies, there will be an insignificant increase in these errors and a slight improvement in
gain flatness. Due to power dissipation considerations, ± 12 volt
supplies are recommended for optimum video performance.
Excellent performance can be achieved at much lower supplies
as well.

Another important consideration when driving multiple cables
is the high frequency isolation between the outputs of the
cables. Due to its low output impedance, the AD811 achieves
better than 40 dB of output to output isolation at 5 MHz driving back terminated 75 Ω cables.

The gain can be increased to 20 dB (×10) by raising R8 and R9
to 1.27 kΩ, with a corresponding decrease in –3 dB bandwidth
to about 25 MHz. The maximum output voltage under these
conditions will be increased to ± 9 V using ± 12 V supplies.
An 80 MHz Voltage-Controlled Amplifier Circuit
The voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) circuit of Figure 40
shows the AD811 being used with the AD834, a 500 MHz,
4-quadrant multiplier. The AD834 multiplies the signal input
by the dc control voltage, VG. The AD834 outputs are in the
form of differential currents from a pair of open collectors,
ensuring that the full bandwidth of the multiplier (which exceeds 500 MHz) is available for certain applications. Here,
the AD811 op amp provides a buffered, single-ended groundreferenced output. Using feedback resistors R8 and R9 of
511 Ω, the overall gain ranges from –70 dB, for VG = 0 dB to
+12 dB, (a numerical gain of four), when VG = +1 V. The overall transfer function of the VCA is:
The gain-control input voltage, VG, may be a positive or negative ground-referenced voltage, or fully differential, depending
on the user’s choice of connections at Pins 7 and 8. A positive
value of VG results in an overall noninverting response. Reversing the sign of VG simply causes the sign of the overall response
to invert. In fact, although this circuit has been classified as a
voltage-controlled amplifier, it is also quite useful as a generalpurpose four-quadrant multiplier, with good load-driving capabilities and fully-symmetrical responses from X- and Y-inputs.
VOUT = 4 (X1 – X2)(Y1 – Y2)
The AD811 and AD834 can both be operated from power
supply voltages of ± 5 V. While it is not necessary to power them
from the same supplies, the common-mode voltage at W1 and
W2 must be biased within the common-mode range of the
AD811’s input stage. To achieve the lowest differential gain and
phase errors, it is recommended that the AD811 be operated
from power supply voltages of ± 10 volts or greater. This VCA
circuit is designed to operate from a ± 12 volt dual power
supply.
which reduces to VOUT = 4 VG VIN using the labeling conventions shown in Figure 40. The circuit’s –3 dB bandwidth of
80 MHz, is maintained essentially constant—independent of
gain. The response can be maintained flat to within ± 0.1 dB
from dc to 40 MHz at full gain with the addition of an optional
capacitor of about 0.3 pF across the feedback resistor R8. The
circuit produces a full-scale output of ± 4 V for a ± 1 V input,
and can drive a reverse-terminated load of 50 Ω or 75 Ω to ±2 V.

A Video Keyer Circuit
By using two AD834 multipliers, an AD811, and a 1 V dc
source, a special form of a two-input VCA circuit called a
video keyer can be assembled. “Keying” is the term used in
reference to blending two or more video sources under the
control of a third signal or signals to create such special effects
as dissolves and overlays. The circuit shown in Figure 41 is a
two-input keyer, with video inputs VA and VB, and a control
input VG. The transfer function (with VOUT at the load) is
given by:
VOUT = G VA + (1–G) VB
where G is a dimensionless variable (actually, just the gain of
the “A” signal path) that ranges from 0 when VG = 0, to 1
when VG = +1 V. Thus, VOUT varies continuously between VA
and VB as G varies from 0 to 1.
Circuit operation is straightforward. Consider first the signal
path through U1, which handles video input VA. Its gain is
clearly zero when VG = 0 and the scaling we have chosen
ensures that it is unity when VG = +1 V; this takes care of the
first term of the transfer function. On the other hand, the VG
input to U2 is taken to the inverting input X2 while X1 is
biased at an accurate +1 V. Thus, when VG = 0, the response
to video input VB is already at its full-scale value of unity,
whereas when VG = +1 V, the differential input X1–X2 is zero.
This generates the second term.
The bias currents required at the output of the multipliers are
provided by R8 and R9. A dc-level-shifting network comprising
R10/R12 and R11/R13 ensures that the input nodes of the
AD811 are positioned at a voltage within its common-mode
range. At high frequencies C1 and C2 bypass R10 and R11
respectively. R14 is included to lower the HF loop gain, and is
needed because the voltage-to-current conversion in the
AD834s, via the Y2 inputs, results in an effective value of the
feedback resistance of 250 Ω; this is only about half the value
required for optimum flatness in the AD811’s response. (Note
that this resistance is unaffected by G: when G = 1, all the
feedback is via U1, while when G = 0 it is all via U2). R14
reduces the fractional amount of output current from the multipliers into the current-summing inverting input of the AD811,
by sharing it with R8. This resistor can be used to adjust the
bandwidth and damping factor to best suit the application.
To generate the 1 V dc needed for the “1–G” term an AD589
reference supplies 1.225 V ± 25 mV to a voltage divider consisting of resistors R2 through R4. Potentiometer R3 should be
adjusted to provide exactly +1 V at the X1 input.
In this case, we have shown an arrangement using dual supplies
of ± 5 V for both the AD834 and the AD811. Also, the overall
gain in this case is arranged to be unity at the load, when it is
driven from a reverse-terminated 75 Ω line. This means that the
“dual VCA” has to operate at a maximum gain of 2, rather

than 4 as in the VCA circuit of Figure 40. However, this cannot
be achieved by lowering the feedback resistor, since below a
critical value (not much less than 500 Ω) the AD811’s peaking
may be unacceptable. This is because the dominant pole in the
open-loop ac response of a current-feedback amplifier is controlled by this feedback resistor. It would be possible to operate
at a gain of X4 and then attenuate the signal at the output.
Instead, we have chosen to attenuate the signals by 6 dB at the
input to the AD811; this is the function of R8 through R11.
