FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
■
The LT®1567 is an analog building block optimized for
very low noise high frequency filter applications. It contains two wideband rail-to-rail operational amplifiers, one
of them internally configured as a unity-gain inverter.
With the addition of a few passive components, the
LT1567 becomes a flexible second order filter section
with cutoff frequency (fC) up to 5MHz, ideal for antialiasing or for channel filtering in high speed data communications systems. A spreadsheet-based design tool is
available at www.linear.com for designing lowpass and
bandpass filters using the LT1567.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The inputs of each op amp are protected by back-to-back diodes
and diodes to each supply. If either input exceeds the supply or the
differential input voltage exceeds 1.4V, the input current should be limited
to less than 25mA.
Note 3: The LT1567C and LT1567I are guaranteed functional over the
operating temperature range –40°C to 85°C.
Note 4: The LT1567C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. The LT1567C is designed, characterized and expected to
meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C but not tested or QA
sampled at these temperatures. The LT1567I is guaranteed to meet
specified performance from – 40°C to 85°C.

OAOUT (Pin 1): Output of the Uncommitted Op Amp (OA).
As with most wideband op amps, it is important to avoid
connecting heavy capacitive loads (above about 10pF)
directly to this output. Such loads will impair AC stability
and should be isolated from the output through series
resistance.
OAIN (Pin 2): Inverting or “–” Input of the Uncommitted
Op Amp (OA) in the LT1567. The noninverting or “+” input
of this amplifier is shared with that of the INV amplifier and
accessed via the DC BIAS and BYPASS pins. The OA
amplifier is optimized for minimal wideband noise.
BYPASS (Pin 3): AC Ground Bypass. A decoupling capacitor, typically 0.1µF, from this pin to a printed circuit ground
plane must be used. Use the shortest possible wiring.
Power Supply Pins (Pins 4, 8): The V – and V+ pins should
be bypassed with 0.1µF capacitors to an adequate analog
ground plane using the shortest possible wiring. Electrically clean supplies and a low impedance ground are
important to obtain the wide dynamic range and bandwidth available from the LT1567. Low noise linear power
supplies are recommended. Switching supplies require
special care because of the inevitable risk of their switching noise coupling into the signal path, reducing dynamic
range.
DC BIAS (Pin 5): DC Biasing Input. Sets the DC voltage at
the noninverting inputs of the two internal amplifiers;
designed for use as a DC reference, not a signal input.The
DC BIAS input includes a small series resistor, both to
balance DC offsets in the presence of input bias currents
and also to suppress the “Q” factor of possible parasitic
high frequency resonant circuits introduced by wiring
inductance. The reference voltage at the noninverting
inputs of the two amplifiers is decoupled for very high
frequencies with a small internal capacitor to the chip
substrate, nominally 7pF. An external capacitor, typically
0.1µF, to a nearby ground plane must be added at Pin 3
(BYPASS) for a clean wideband DC reference biasing
voltage.
INVIN (Pin 6): Unity-Gain Inverter Input. The “inverter”
(INV) amplifier in the LT1567 is connected to internal
resistors (nominally 600Ω each) to form a closed-loop
amplifier with a wideband voltage gain of nominally –1.
This amplifier is similar to the uncommitted op amp (OA)
but is optimized for high frequency linearity.
INVOUT (Pin 7): Output of the INV or “Inverter” Amplifier,
with a Nominal Gain of –1 from the INVIN Pin. As with
most wideband op amps, it is important to avoid connecting heavy capacitive loads (above about 10pF) directly to
this output. Such loads will impair AC stability and should
be isolated from the output through series resistance.

addressing the different sensitivities to these effects
when used as a filter section. This combination produces
a low noise filter with better distortion performance than
would be possible with identical amplifiers.
Functional Description
The LT1567 contains two low noise rail-to-rail output,
wideband operational amplifiers, one of them connected
internally as a unity-gain inverter. These two amplifiers
can form a second order multiple feedback filter configuration (Figure 1) for megahertz signal frequencies, with
exceptionally low total noise. The amplifier in the dedicated inverter (INV) is optimized for better high frequency linearity while the uncommitted operational
amplifier (OA) is optimized for lower input noise voltage,

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The simple-to-use spreadsheet requires the user to define the desired corner (or center) frequency, the passband gain and a capacitor value for a choice of second or
third order Chebyshev or Butterworth lowpass or second
order bandpass filters.
The spreadsheet outputs the required external standard
component values and provides a circuit diagram.
Signal Ground
Both operational amplifiers within the LT1567 are designed for inverting operation (constant common mode
input) and they share a single reference node on the chip.
Two pins permit access to this node: DC BIAS and
BYPASS. For a clean reference over a wide bandwidth, the
normal procedure is to connect DC BIAS to a DC potential
or ground and BYPASS to a decoupling capacitor that
returns to a ground plane.
Differential Output Feature
The multiple feedback filter section of Figure 1 inherently
includes two outputs of opposite signal polarity: a DC
inverting output from the OA (Pin 1) and a DC noninverting

output from the INV block (Pin 7). These two outputs
maintain equal gain and 180º phase shift over a wide
frequency range. This feature permits choosing the signal
polarity in single ended applications, and also performs
single ended to differential conversion. The latter property
is useful as an antialiasing filter to drive standard monolithic A/D converters having differential inputs, as illustrated on the first page of this data sheet.
cause a high Q LC resonance in the hundreds of kHz in the
chip’s supplies or ground reference. This may impair filter
performance at those frequencies. In stringent filter
applications, a compact, carefully laid out printed circuit
board with good ground plane makes a difference in both
stopband rejection and distortion. Finally, equipment to
measure filter performance can itself introduce distortion
or noise. Checking for these limits with a wire in place of
the filter is a prudent routine procedure.
Dealing with High Source Impedances
The voltage VIN in Figure 1, on the left side of R1, is the
signal voltage that the filter sees. If a voltage source with
significant internal impedance drives the VIN node in
Figure 1, then the filter input VIN may differ from the
source’s open-circuit output, and the difference can be
complex, because the filter presents a complex impedance to VIN. A rule of thumb is that a source impedance is
negligibly “low” if it is much smaller than R1 at frequencies
of interest. Otherwise, the source impedance (resistive or
reactive) effectively adds to R1 and may change the signal
frequency response compared to that with a low source
impedance. If the source is resistive and predictable, then
it may be possible to design for it by reducing R1.
Unpredictable or nonresistive source impedances that are
not much less than R1 should be buffered.
Construction and Instrumentation Cautions
Electrically clean construction is important in applications seeking the full dynamic range and bandwidth of the
LT1567. Using the shortest possible wiring or printedcircuit paths will minimize parasitic capacitance and
inductance. High quality supply bypass capacitors of
0.1µF near the chip, connected to a ground plane, provide
good decoupling from a clean, low inductance power
source. But several inches of wire (i.e., a few microhenrys
of inductance) from the power supplies, unless decoupled
by substantial capacitance (≥10µF) near the chip, can
Low Noise Differential Circuits
The LT1567 is an optimum analog building for designing
single supply differential circuits to process low level
signals. Figure 3 shows a single ended to differential
amplifier driving a 1st order differential RC filter. The
differential output of Figure 3 is a function of input (VIN)
and the VREF voltage on Pin 5. (The range of the VREF
voltage on Pin 5 in Figures 3, 4 and 5 is the common mode
input voltage range parameter under Electrical
Characteristics.)The graph of Figure 3 shows the differential signal-to-noise ratio for a gain of 2 and a gain of 10.
Increasing the differential gain increases the differential
signal-to-noise ratio. The equivalent input noise is equal to
the output noise divided by the gain. For example, with a
gain equal to 2 (R2 = R1 = 200Ω) and a gain equal to 10
(R2 = 1k, R1 = 200Ω), the equivalent input noise is 4.59nV/
√Hz and 2.04nV/√Hz respectively. The VREF voltage on Pin
5 can be set by a voltage divider or a reference voltage
source. To maximize the unclipped LT1567 output swing,
the DC output voltage should be set at V+/2. However, if
VINDC (the input DC voltage) is within the range of VREF,
then VREF can be equal to VINDC. The input signal can also
be AC coupled to the input resistor, R1, and VREF set to the
DC voltage of the circuit following the amplifier. For
example, VREF might be set to 1.2V to bias the input of an
I and Q modulator used in broadband communication
systems.

Figure 4 shows an LT1567 single supply differential buffer
driving a differential 1st order RC filter. The VREF voltage
is subject to the common mode (DC BIAS) limits in the
spec table. Within this constraint, VREF can be used to
adjust the output common mode level, as noted in Figure
4. For example, in a single 5V power supply circuit, if the
input common mode DC voltage is 1.1V and VREF is 1.8V,
then the output common mode DC voltage is 2.5V.
Output Drive
The output of the LT1567 op amp (Pin 1) can typically
provide at least ±20mA. The minimum resistive load to
ground that Pin 1 or Pin 7 can drive depends on the
feedback resistor and the peak output voltage. For example, the differential driver circuit in Figure 4 is operating
with a single 5V supply, VREF and VINDC are equal to 2.5V
and the peak AC signal (VINAC) is 1V. If the outputs provide
1.66mA to the feedback resistors (1V/604Ω), then 18.34mA
is available to drive a resistive load. With the peak output
voltage at 3.5V (2.5V DC plus 1V peak AC), the outputs can
drive resistive loads of 191Ω or greater.
Figure 5 shows a low noise differential to single ended
amplifier and 1st order lowpass filter. The input common
mode rejection depends on the matching of resistors R1
and R3 and the LT1567 inverter gain tolerance (common
mode rejection is at least 38dB up to 1MHz with 1%
resistors and 5% inverter gain tolerance). The DC voltage
at the amplifier’s output (VOUT) is VREF.

VN is the op amp’s voltage noise density in V/√Hz.
IN is the op amp’s current noise density in A/√Hz.
VSN is the voltage noise density of the input voltage source
VS with source resistance RS. (If VSN is less than one-half
the noise of resistor R1, then the calculation error when
omitting VSN is less than 4.3%.)
VR1 and VR2 is the voltage noise density of the thermal
noise of resistors (R1 + RS) and R2 respectively. Resistor
RS is typically smaller than R1 and is omitted from noise
calculations. The voltage noise density of the thermal
noise of a resistor R is approximately 0.128x√RnV/√Hz at
25°C.
The RP resistor noise at the op amp’s plus input is equal
to √(kT/CS) and is omitted from noise calculations. (If
CS = 0.1µF, the RP noise is 0.2µVRMS at 25°C, k = 1.38x
10–23 and T = 273°C + 25°C.)
The noise bandwidth (fNBW) is greater than a circuit’s
–3dB bandwidth. (For a 1st, 2nd or 3rd order Butterworth
filter, fNBW is 1.57x, 1.22x and 1.15x respectively the –
3dB bandwidth.)

LT1567 op amp inverter for R1 = R2 = 604Ω. With
