High Speed, Low Noise
Video Op Amp
AD829
Data Sheet
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The"% is a low noise (1.7 nV/√Hz), high speed op amp with
custom compensation that provides the user with gains of 1 to 20
while maintaining a bandwidth >50 MHz. Its 0.04° differential
phase and 0.02% differential gain performance at 3.58 MHz and
4.43 MHz, driving reverse-terminated 50 Ω or 75 Ω cables, makes
it ideally suited for professional video applications. The AD829
achieves its 230 V/µs uncompensated slew rate and 750 MHz
gain bandwidth while requiring only 5 mA of current from
power supplies.
The external compensation pin of the AD829 gives it
exceptional versatility. For example, compensation can be
selected to optimize the bandwidth for a given load and power
supply voltage. As a gain-of-2 line driver, the −3 dB bandwidth
can be increased to 95 MHz at the expense of 1 dB of peaking.
Its output can also be clamped at its external compensation pin.
The AD829 exhibits excellent dc performance. It offers a minimum
open-loop gain of 30 V/mV into loads as low as 500 Ω, a low input
voltage noise of 1.7 nV/√Hz, and a low input offset voltage of 1 mV
maximum. Common-mode rejection and power supply rejection
ratios are both 120 dB.
This op amp is also useful in multichannel, high speed data
conversion where its fast (90 ns to 0.1%) settling time is important.
In such applications, the AD829 serves as an input buffer for 8-bit to
10-bit ADCs and as an output I/V converter for high speed DACs.

FEATURES
Figure 2. 20-Terminal LCC
Operating as a traditional voltage feedback amplifier, the AD829
provides many of the advantages that a transimpedance amplifier
offer. A bandwidth >50 MHz can be maintained for a range of
gains through the replacement of the external compensation
capacitor. The AD829 and the transimpedance amplifier are both
unity-gain stable and provide similar voltage noise performance
(1.7 nV/√Hz); however, the current noise of the AD829
(1.5 pA/√Hz) is less than 10% of the noise of transimpedance
amplifiers. The inputs of the AD829 are symmetrical.

5.
The input voltage noise of 2 nV/√Hz, current noise of
1.5 pA/√Hz, and 50 MHz bandwidth for gains of 1 to 20
make the AD829 an ideal preamp.
A differential phase error of 0.04 and a 0.02% differential
gain error, at the 3.58 MHz NTSC, 4.43 MHz PAL, and
SECAM color subcarrier frequencies, make the op amp an
outstanding video performer for driving reverse-terminated
50 Ω and 75 Ω cables to ±1 V (at their terminated end).
The AD829 can drive heavy capacitive loads.
Performance is fully specified for operation from ±5 V
to ±15 V supplies.
The AD829 is available in PDIP, CERDIP, and small outline
packages. Chips and MIL-STD-883B parts are also available.
The 8-lead SOIC is available for the extended temperature
range (−40°C to +125°C).

Data Sheet
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD829 is fabricated on the Analog Devices, Inc., proprietary
complementary bipolar (CB) process, which provides PNP and
NPN transistors with similar fTs of 600 MHz. As shown in
Figure 35, the AD829 input stage consists of an NPN differential
pair in which each transistor operates at a 600 µA collector current.
This gives the input devices a high transconductance, which in
turn gives the AD829 a low noise figure of 2 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz.

The AD829 is stable with no external compensation for noise
gains greater than 20. For lower gains, two different methods of
frequency compensating the amplifier can be used to achieve
closed-loop stability: shunt and current feedback compensation.

SHUNT COMPENSATION
Figure 35. Simplified Schematic
The input stage drives a folded cascode that consists of a fast pair of
PNP transistors. These PNPs drive a current mirror that provides a
differential-input-to-single-ended-output conversion. The high
speed PNPs are also used in the current-amplifying output stage,
which provides a high current gain of 40,000. Even under heavy
loading conditions, the high fTs of the NPN and PNPs, produced
using the CB process, permit cascading two stages of emitter
followers while maintaining 60 phase margin at closed-loop
bandwidths greater than 50 MHz.
Figure 36 and Figure 37 show that shunt compensation has an
external compensation capacitor, CCOMP, connected between the
compensation pin and ground. This external capacitor is tied in
parallel with approximately 3 pF of internal capacitance at the
compensation node. In addition, a small capacitance, CLEAD, in
parallel with resistor R2, compensates for the capacitance at the
inverting input of the amplifier.

Two stages of complementary emitter followers also effectively
buffer the high impedance compensation node (at the CCOMP pin)
from the output so that the AD829 can maintain a high dc openloop gain, even into low load impedances (92 dB into a 150 Ω
load and 100 dB into a 1 kΩ load). Laser trimming and PTAT
biasing ensure low offset voltage and low offset voltage drift,
enabling the user to eliminate ac coupling in many applications.

Unity-gain stability requires a compensation capacitance of 68 pF
(Pin 5 to ground), which yields a small signal bandwidth of
66 MHz and slew rate of 16 V/µs. The slew rate and gain
bandwidth product varies inversely with compensation
capacitance. Table 4 and Figure 37 show the optimum
compensation capacitance and the resulting slew rate for
a desired noise gain.
For gains between 1 and 20, choose CCOMP to keep the small signal
bandwidth relatively constant. The minimum gain that will still
provide stability depends on the value of the external
compensation capacitance.

An RC network in the output stage (see Figure 35) completely
removes the effect of capacitive loading when the amplifier
compensates for closed-loop gains of 10 or higher. At low
frequencies, and with low capacitive loads, the gain from the
compensation node to the output is very close to unity. In this case,
C is bootstrapped and does not contribute to the compensation
capacitance of the device. As the capacitive load increases, a pole
forms with the output impedance of the output stage, which
reduces the gain, and subsequently, C is incompletely
bootstrapped. Therefore, some fraction of C contributes to the
compensation capacitance, and the unity-gain bandwidth falls.
As the load capacitance is further increased, the bandwidth
continues to fall, and the amplifier remains stable.

Compensation

as the corresponding slew rates and bandwidth. The capacitor

This shows that the slew rate is only 0.314 V/µs for every megahertz of bandwidth. The only way to increase the slew rate is to
increase the fT, and that is difficult because of process limitations.
Unfortunately, an amplifier with a bandwidth of 10 MHz can
only slew at 3.1 V/µs, which is barely enough to provide a full
power bandwidth of 50 kHz.
The AD829 is especially suited to a form of current feedback
compensation that allows for the enhancement of both the full
power bandwidth and the slew rate of the amplifier. The voltage
gain from the inverting input pin to the compensation pin is
large; therefore, if a capacitance is inserted between these pins,
the bandwidth of the amplifier becomes a function of its feedback resistor and the capacitance. The slew rate of the amplifier
is now a function of its internal bias (2I) and the compensation
capacitance.

compensated amplifiers have their bandwidths defined as

Data Sheet
Because the closed-loop bandwidth is a function of RF and
CCOMP (see Figure 39), it is independent of the amplifier closedloop gain, as shown in Figure 41. To preserve stability, the time
constant of RF and CCOMP needs to provide a bandwidth of
<65 MHz. For example, with CCOMP = 15 pF and RF = 1 kΩ, the
small signal bandwidth of the AD829 is 10 MHz. Figure 40
shows that the slew rate is in excess of 60 V/µs. As shown in
Figure 41, the closed-loop bandwidth is constant for gains of
−1 to −4; this is a property of the current feedback amplifiers.
Figure 42 is an oscilloscope photo of the pulse response of a unitygain inverter that has been configured to provide a small signal
bandwidth of 53 MHz and a subsequent slew rate of 180 V/µs;
RF = 3 kΩ and CCOMP = 1 pF. Figure 43 shows the excellent pulse
response as a unity-gain inverter, this using component values
of RF = 1 kΩ and CCOMP = 4 pF.

Figure 45. Closed-Loop Frequency Response vs. Supply for the Inverting
Amplifier Using Current Feedback Compensation
The buffer circuit shown in Figure 47 drives a back-terminated
75 Ω video line to standard video levels (1 V p-p), with 0.1 dB
gain flatness to 30 MHz and with only 0.04° and 0.02% differential
phase and gain at the 4.43 MHz PAL color subcarrier frequency.
This level of performance, which meets the requirements for
high definition video displays and test equipment, is achieved
using only 5 mA quiescent current.
When a noninverting amplifier configuration using a current
feedback compensation is needed, the circuit shown in Figure 46 is
recommended. This circuit provides a slew rate twice that of the
shunt compensated noninverting amplifier of Figure 47 at the
expense of gain flatness. Nonetheless, this circuit delivers 95 MHz
bandwidth with 1 dB flatness into a back-terminated cable,
with a differential gain error of only 0.01% and a differential
phase error of only 0.015 at 4.43 MHz.

HIGH GAIN VIDEO BANDWIDTH, 3-OP-AMP
INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER
The input amplifiers operate at a gain of 20, while the output
op amp runs at a gain of 5. In this circuit, the main bandwidth
limitation is the gain/bandwidth product of the output amplifier.
Extra care should be taken while breadboarding this circuit
because even a couple of extra picofarads of stray capacitance at the
compensation pins of A1 and A2 will degrade circuit bandwidth.
Figure 48 shows a 3-op-amp instrumentation amplifier circuit
that provides a gain of 100 at video bandwidths. At a circuit gain of
100, the small signal bandwidth equals 18 MHz into a FET probe.
Small signal bandwidth equals 6.6 MHz with a 50 Ω load. The
0.1% settling time is 300 ns.
