Data Sheet
15MHz, BiMOS Operational Amplifier with
MOSFET Input/CMOS Output
HCA10014 op amp combines the advantage of both CMOS
and bipolar transistors.
Gate protected P-Channel MOSFET (PMOS) transistors are
used in the input circuit to provide very high input
impedance, very low input current, and exceptional speed
performance. The use of PMOS transistors in the input stage
results in common mode input voltage capability down to
0.5V below the negative supply terminal, an important
attribute in single supply applications.
A CMOS transistor pair, capable of swinging the output
voltage to within 10mV of either supply voltage terminal (at
very high values of load impedance), is employed as the
output circuit.
The HCA10014 operates at supply voltages ranging from 5V
to 16V, (±2.5V to ±8V). It can be phase compensated with a
single external capacitor, and have terminals for adjustment
of offset voltage for applications requiring offset null
capability. Terminal provisions are also made to permit
strobing of the output stage.

Application Information
Circuit Description
Figure 7 is a block diagram of the HCA10014. The input
terminals may be operated down to 0.5V below the negative
supply rail, and the output can be swung very close to either
supply rail in many applications. Consequently, the
HCA10014 is ideal for single supply operation. Three
Class A amplifier stages, having the individual gain
capability and current consumption shown in Figure 7,
provide the total gain of the HCA10014. A biasing circuit
provides two potentials for common use in the first and
second stages. Terminal 8 can be used both for phase
compensation and to strobe the output stage into
quiescence. When Terminal 8 is tied to the negative supply
rail (Terminal 4) by mechanical or electrical means, the
output potential at Terminal 6 essentially rises to the positive
supply rail potential at Terminal 7. This condition of
essentially zero current drain in the output stage under the
strobed “OFF” condition can only be achieved when the
5
ohmic load resistance presented to the amplifier is very high
(e.g., when the amplifier output is used to drive CMOS digital
circuits in Comparator applications).
Input Stage
The circuit is shown in the schematic diagram. It consists of
a differential input stage using PMOS field effect transistors
(Q6, Q7) working into a mirror pair of bipolar transistors (Q9,
Q10) functioning as load resistors together with resistors R3
through R6. The mirror pair transistors also function as a
differential to single ended converter to provide base drive to
the second stage bipolar transistor (Q11). Offset nulling,
when desired, can be effected by connecting a 100,000Ω
potentiometer across Terminals 1 and 5 and the
potentiometer slider arm to Terminal 4. Cascade connected
PMOS transistors Q2, Q4 are the constant current source for
the input stage. The biasing circuit for the constant current
source is subsequently described. The small diodes D5

Terminal 4.
6. Total supply voltage (for indicated voltage gains) = 15V with

FIGURE 7. BLOCK DIAGRAM OF THE HCA10014
Second Stage
Most of the voltage gain is provided by the second amplifier
stage, consisting of bipolar transistor Q11 and its cascade
connected load resistance provided by PMOS transistors Q3
and Q5. The source of bias potentials for these PMOS
transistors is subsequently described. Miller Effect
compensation (roll off) is accomplished by simply connecting
a small capacitor between Terminals 1 and 8. A 47pF
capacitor provides sufficient compensation for stable unity
gain operation in most applications.
Bias Source Circuit
At total supply voltages, somewhat above 8.3V, resistor R2
and zener diode Z1 serve to establish a voltage of 8.3V
across the series connected circuit, consisting of resistor R1,
diodes D1 through D4, and PMOS transistor Q1. A tap at the
junction of resistor R1 and diode D4 provides a gate bias
potential of about 4.5V for PMOS transistors Q4 and Q5 with
respect to Terminal 7. A potential of about 2.2V is developed
across diode connected PMOS transistor Q1 with respect to
Terminal 7 to provide gate bias for PMOS transistors Q2 and
Q3. It should be noted that Q1 is “mirror connected (see
Note 7)” to both Q2 and Q3. Since transistors Q1, Q2, Q3 are
designed to be identical, the approximately 200µA current in
Q1 establishes a similar current in Q2 and Q3 as constant
current sources for both the first and second amplifier
stages, respectively.
6
At total supply voltages somewhat less than 8.3V, zener
diode Z1 becomes nonconductive and the potential,
developed across series connected R1, D1 -D4, and Q1,
varies directly with variations in supply voltage.
Consequently, the gate bias for Q4, Q5 and Q2, Q3 varies in
accordance with supply voltage variations. This variation
results in deterioration of the power supply rejection ratio
(PSRR) at total supply voltages below 8.3V. Operation at
total supply voltages below about 4.5V results in seriously
degraded performance.
Output Stage
The output stage consists of a drain loaded inverting
amplifier using CMOS transistors operating in the Class A
mode. When operating into very high resistance loads, the
output can be swung within millivolts of either supply rail.
Because the output stage is a drain loaded amplifier, its gain
is dependent upon the load impedance. The transfer
characteristics of the output stage for a load returned to the
negative supply rail are shown in Figure 8. Typical op amp
loads are readily driven by the output stage. Because large
signal excursions are nonlinear, requiring feedback for good
waveform reproduction, transient delays may be
encountered. As a voltage follower, the amplifier can achieve
0.01% accuracy levels, including the negative supply rail.

pairs in linear circuit applications, see Document # 619, data

Offset Nulling
Offset voltage nulling is usually accomplished with a
100,000Ω potentiometer connected across Terminals 1 and
5 and with the potentiometer slider arm connected to
Terminal 4. A fine offset null adjustment usually can be
effected with the slider arm positioned in the midpoint of the
potentiometer’s total range.
Input Current Variation with Temperature
The input current of the HCA10014 circuit is typically 5pA at
25oC. The major portion of this input current is due to
leakage current through the gate protective diodes in the
input circuit. As with any semiconductor junction device,
including op amps with a junction FET input stage, the
leakage current approximately doubles for every 10oC
increase in temperature. Figure 10 provides data on the
typical variation of input bias current as a function of
temperature.
It is well known that the characteristics of a MOSFET device
can change slightly when a DC gate source bias potential is
applied to the device for extended time periods. The
magnitude of the change is increased at high temperatures.
Users should be alert to the possible impacts of this effect if
the application of the device involves extended operation at
high temperatures with a significant differential DC bias
voltage applied across Terminals 2 and 3. Figure 11 shows
typical data pertinent to shifts in offset voltage encountered
with devices during life testing. At lower temperatures (metal
can and plastic), for example at 85oC, this change in voltage
is considerably less. In typical linear applications where the
differential voltage is small and symmetrical, these
incremental changes are of about the same magnitude as
those encountered in an operational amplifier employing a
bipolar transistor input stage. The 2VDC differential voltage
example represents conditions when the amplifier output
stage is “toggled”, e.g., as in comparator applications.

common mode input voltage at TA = 25oC. These data show
that circuit designers can advantageously exploit these
characteristics to design circuits which typically require an
input current of less than 1pA, provided the common mode
input voltage does not exceed 2V. As previously noted, the
input current is essentially the result of the leakage current
through the gate protection diodes in the input circuit and,
therefore, a function of the applied voltage. Although the
finite resistance of the glass terminal-to-case insulator of the
metal can package also contributes an increment of leakage
current, there are useful compensating factors.

Power Supply Considerations
Because the HCA10014 is very useful in single supply
applications, it is pertinent to review some considerations
relating to power supply current consumption under both
single and dual supply service. Figures 12A and 12B show
connections for both dual and single supply operation.
Dual Supply Operation - When the output voltage at
Terminal 6 is 0V, the currents supplied by the two power
supplies are equal. When the gate terminals of Q8 and Q12
are driven increasingly positive with respect to ground,
current flow through Q12 (from the negative supply) to the
load is increased and current flow through Q8 (from the
positive supply) decreases correspondingly. When the gate
terminals of Q8 and Q12 are driven increasingly negative
with respect to ground, current flow through Q8 is increased
and current flow through Q12 is decreased accordingly.
Single Supply Operation - Initially, let it be assumed that
the value of RL is very high (or disconnected), and that the
input terminal bias (Terminals 2 and 3) is such that the
output terminal (No. 6) voltage is at V+/2, i.e., the voltage
drops across Q8 and Q12 are of equal magnitude. Figure 4
shows typical quiescent supply current vs supply voltage for
the HCA10014 operated under these conditions. Since the
output stage is operating as a Class A amplifier, the supply
current will remain constant under dynamic operating
conditions as long as the transistors are operated in the
linear portion of their voltage transfer characteristics (see
Figure 8). If either Q8 or Q12 are swung out of their linear
regions toward cutoff (a nonlinear region), there will be a
corresponding reduction in supply current. In the extreme
case, e.g., with Terminal 8 swung down to ground potential
(or tied to ground), NMOS transistor Q12 is completely cut
off and the supply current to series connected transistors
Q8, Q12 goes essentially to zero. The two preceding stages,
however, continue to draw modest supply current (see the
lower curve in Figure 4) even though the output stage is
strobed off. Figure 12A shows a dual supply arrangement for
the output stage that can also be strobed off, assuming
8
RL = ∞ by pulling the potential of Terminal 8 down to that of
Terminal 4.
Let it now be assumed that a load resistance of nominal
value (e.g., 2kΩ) is connected between Terminal 6 and
ground in the circuit of Figure 12B. Let it be assumed again
that the input terminal bias (Terminals 2 and 3) is such that
the output terminal (No. 6) voltage is at V+/2. Since PMOS
transistor Q8 must now supply quiescent current to both RL
and transistor Q12, it should be apparent that under these
conditions the supply current must increase as an inverse
function of the RL magnitude. Figure 5 shows the voltage
drop across PMOS transistor Q8 as a function of load
current at several supply voltages. Figure 8 shows the
voltage transfer characteristics of the output stage for
several values of load resistance.
Wideband Noise
From the standpoint of low noise performance
considerations, the use of the HCA10014 is most
advantageous in applications where the source resistance
of the input signal is on the order of 1MΩ or more. In this
case, the total input referred noise voltage is typically only
23µV when the test circuit amplifier of Figure 13 is
operated at a total supply voltage of 15V. This value of total
input referred noise remains essentially constant, even
though the value of source resistance is raised by an order
of magnitude. This characteristic is due to the fact that
reactance of the input capacitance becomes a significant
factor in shunting the source resistance. It should be noted,
however, that for values of source resistance very much
greater than 1MΩ, the total noise voltage generated can be
dominated by the thermal noise contributions of both the
feedback and source resistors.

Typical Applications
Voltage Followers
Operational amplifiers with very high input resistances are
particularly suited to service as voltage followers. Figure 14
shows the circuit of a classical voltage follower, together with
pertinent waveforms in a split supply configuration.
A voltage follower, operated from a single supply, is shown in
Figure 15, together with related waveforms. This follower
circuit is linear over a wide dynamic range, as illustrated by
the reproduction of the output waveform in Figure 15A with
input signal ramping. The waveforms in Figure 15B show
that the follower does not lose its input to output phase
sense, even though the input is being swung 7.5V below
ground potential. This unique characteristic is an important
attribute in both operational amplifier and comparator
applications. Figure 15B also shows the manner in which the
CMOS output stage permits the output signal to swing down
to the negative supply rail potential (i.e., ground in the case
shown). The digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit,
described later, illustrates the practical use of the HCA10014
in a single supply voltage follower application.
9-Bit CMOS DAC
A typical circuit of a 9-bit Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC)
is shown in Figure 16. This system combines the concepts of
multiple switch CMOS lCs, a low cost ladder network of
discrete metal oxide film resistors, a HCA10014 op amp
connected as a follower, and an inexpensive monolithic
regulator in a simple single power supply arrangement. An
additional feature of the DAC is that it is readily interfaced
with CMOS input logic, e.g., 10V logic levels are used in the
circuit of Figure 16.
9
The circuit uses an R/2R voltage ladder network, with the
output potential obtained directly by terminating the ladder
arms at either the positive or the negative power supply
terminal. Each CD4007A contains three “inverters”, each
“inverter” functioning as a single pole double throw switch to
terminate an arm of the R/2R network at either the positive
or negative power supply terminal. The resistor ladder is an
assembly of 1% tolerance metal oxide film resistors. The five
arms requiring the highest accuracy are assembled with
series and parallel combinations of 806,000Ω resistors from
the same manufacturing lot.
A single 15V supply provides a positive bus for the follower
amplifier and feeds the CA3085 voltage regulator. A
“scale-adjust” function is provided by the regulator output
control, set to a nominal 10V level in this system. The line
voltage regulation (approximately 0.2%) permits a 9-bit
accuracy to be maintained with variations of several volts in
the supply. The flexibility afforded by the CMOS building
blocks simplifies the design of DAC systems tailored to
particular needs.
Single Supply, Absolute Value, Ideal Full Wave
Rectifier
An absolute value circuit is shown in Figure 17. During
positive excursions, the input signal is fed through the
feedback network directly to the output. Simultaneously, the
positive excursion of the input signal also drives the output
terminal (No. 6) of the inverting amplifier in a negative going
excursion such that the 1N914 diode effectively disconnects
the amplifier from the signal path. During a negative going
excursion of the input signal, the HCA10014 functions as a
normal inverting amplifier with a gain equal to -R2/R1. When
the equality of the two equations shown in Figure 17 is
satisfied, the full wave output is symmetrical.
Peak Detectors
Peak detector circuits are easily implemented, as illustrated
in Figure 18 for both the peak positive and the peak negative
circuit. It should be noted that with large signal inputs, the
bandwidth of the peak negative circuit is much less than that
of the peak positive circuit. The second stage of the
HCA10014 limits the bandwidth in this case. Negative going
output signal excursion requires a positive going signal
excursion at the collector of transistor Q11, which is loaded
by the intrinsic capacitance of the associated circuitry in this
mode. On the other hand, during a negative going signal
excursion at the collector of Q11, the transistor functions in
an active “pull down” mode so that the intrinsic capacitance
can be discharged more expeditiously.

FIGURE 20. VOLTAGE REGULATOR CIRCUIT (0.1V TO 50V AT 1A)
Error Amplifier in Regulated Power Supplies
The HCA10014 is an ideal choice for error amplifier service
in regulated power supplies since it can function as an error
amplifier when the regulated output voltage is required to
approach zero. Figure 19 shows the schematic diagram of a
40mA power supply capable of providing regulated output
voltage by continuous adjustment over the range from 0V to
13V. Q3 and Q4 in lC2 (a CA3086 transistor array lC)
function as zeners to provide the supply voltage for
comparator IC1. Q1, Q2, and Q5 in IC2 are configured as a
low impedance, temperature compensated source of
adjustable reference voltage for the error amplifier.
Transistors Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 in lC3 (another CA3086
transistor array lC) are connected in parallel as the series
pass element. Transistor Q5 in lC3 functions as a current
limiting device by diverting base drive from the series pass
transistors, in accordance with the adjustment of resistor R2.
Figure 20 contains the schematic diagram of a regulated
power supply capable of providing regulated output voltage
by continuous adjustment over the range from 0.1V to 50V
and currents up to 1A. The error amplifier (lC1) and circuitry
associated with lC2 function as previously described,
although the output of lC1 is boosted by a discrete transistor
(Q4) to provide adequate base drive for the Darlington
14
connected series pass transistors Q1, Q2. Transistor Q3
functions in the previously described current limiting circuit.
Multivibrators
The exceptionally high input resistance presented by the
HCA10014 is an attractive feature for multivibrator circuit
design because it permits the use of timing circuits with high
R/C ratios. The circuit diagram of a pulse generator (astable
multivibrator), with provisions for independent control of the
“on” and “off” periods, is shown in Figure 21. Resistors R1
and R2 are used to bias the HCA10014 to the midpoint of
the supply voltage and R3 is the feedback resistor. The pulse
repetition rate is selected by positioning S1 to the desired
position and the rate remains essentially constant when the
resistors which determine “on-period” and “off-period” are
adjusted.
Function Generator
Figure 22 contains a schematic diagram of a function
generator using the HCA10014 in the integrator and
threshold detector functions. This circuit generates a
triangular or square wave output that can be swept over a
1,000,000:1 range (0.1Hz to 100kHz) by means of a single
control, R1. A voltage control input is also available for
remote sweep control.
HCA10014
The heart of the frequency determining system is an
operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) (see Note 9),
lC1, operated as a voltage controlled current source. The
output, IO, is a current applied directly to the integrating
capacitor, C1, in the feedback loop of the integrator lC2,
using a HCA10014, to provide the triangular wave output.
Potentiometer R2 is used to adjust the circuit for slope
symmetry of positive going and negative going signal
excursions.
Another HCA10014, IC3, is used as a controlled switch to
set the excursion limits of the triangular output from the
integrator circuit. Capacitor C2 is a “peaking adjustment” to
optimize the high frequency square wave performance of the
circuit.
Potentiometer R3 is adjustable to perfect the “amplitude
symmetry” of the square wave output signals. Output from
the threshold detector is fed back via resistor R4 to the input
of lC1 so as to toggle the current source from plus to minus
in generating the linear triangular wave.
Operation with Output Stage Power Booster
The current sourcing and sinking capability of the
HCA10014 output stage is easily supplemented to provide
power boost capability. In the circuit of Figure 23, three
CMOS transistor pairs in a single CA3600E (see Note 11) lC
array are shown parallel connected with the output stage in
the HCA10014. In the Class A mode of CA3600E shown, a
typical device consumes 20mA of supply current at 15V
operation. This arrangement boosts the current handling
capability of the output stage by about 2.5X.
The amplifier circuit in Figure 23 employs feedback to
establish a closed loop gain of 48dB. The typical large signal
bandwidth (-3dB) is 50kHz.
