LF198JAN LF198JAN Monolithic Sample-and-Hold Circuits Literature Number: SNOSAJ2 LF198JAN Monolithic Sample-and-Hold Circuits General Description Features The LF198 is a monolithic sample-and-hold circuit which utilizes BI-FET technology to obtain ultra-high dc accuracy with fast acquisition of signal and low droop rate. Operating as a unity gain follower, dc gain accuracy is 0.002% typical and acquisition time is as low as 6 µs to 0.01%. A bipolar input stage is used to achieve low offset voltage and wide bandwidth. Input offset adjust is accomplished with a single pin, and does not degrade input offset drift. The wide bandwidth allows the LF198 to be included inside the feedback loop of 1 MHz op amps without having stability problems. Input impedance of 1010Ω allows high source impedances to be used without degrading accuracy. n Operates from ± 5V to ± 18V supplies n Less than 10 µs acquisition time n TTL, PMOS, CMOS compatible logic input n 0.5 mV typical hold step at Ch = 0.01 µF n Low input offset n 0.002% gain accuracy n Low output noise in hold mode n Input characteristics do not change during hold mode n High supply rejection ratio in sample or hold n Wide bandwidth n Space Qualified Logic inputs on the LF198 are fully differential with low input current, allowing direct connection to TTL, PMOS, and CMOS. Differential threshold is 1.4V. The LF198 will operate from ± 5V to ± 18V supplies. P-channel junction FET’s are combined with bipolar devices in the output amplifier to give droop rates as low as 5 mV/min with a 1 µF hold capacitor. The JFET’s have much lower noise than MOS devices used in previous designs and do not exhibit high temperature instabilities. The overall design guarantees no feed-through from input to output in the hold mode, even for input signals equal to the supply voltages.

Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions Note 2: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PD = (TJMAX − TA)/θJA, or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. . Note 3: Although the differential voltage may not exceed the limits given, the common-mode voltage on the logic pins may be equal to the supply voltages without causing damage to the circuit. For proper logic operation, however, one of the logic pins must always be at least 2V below the positive supply and 3V above the negative supply. Note 4: Hold step is sensitive to stray capacitive coupling between input logic signals and the hold capacitor. 1 pF, for instance, will create an additional 0.5 mV step with a 5V logic swing and a 0.01µF hold capacitor. Magnitude of the hold step is inversely proportional to hold capacitor value. Note 5: Leakage current is measured at a junction temperature of 25˚C. The effects of junction temperature rise due to power dissipation or elevated ambient can be calculated by doubling the 25˚C value for each 11˚C increase in chip temperature. Leakage is guaranteed over full input signal range.

The hysteresis error can be significantly reduced if the output of the LF198 is digitized quickly after the hold mode is initiated. The hysteresis relaxation time constant in polypropylene, for instance, is 10 — 50 ms. If A-to-D conversion can be made within 1 ms, hysteresis error will be reduced by a factor of ten. Application Hints HOLD CAPACITOR Hold step, acquisition time, and droop rate are the major trade-offs in the selection of a hold capacitor value. Size and cost may also become important for larger values. Use of the curves included with this data sheet should be helpful in selecting a reasonable value of capacitance. Keep in mind that for fast repetition rates or tracking fast signals, the capacitor drive currents may cause a significant temperature rise in the LF198. A significant source of error in an accurate sample and hold circuit is dielectric absorption in the hold capacitor. A mylar cap, for instance, may “sag back” up to 0.2% after a quick change in voltage. A long sample time is required before the circuit can be put back into the hold mode with this type of capacitor. Dielectrics with very low hysteresis are polystyrene, polypropylene, and Teflon. Other types such as mica and polycarbonate are not nearly as good. The advantage of polypropylene over polystyrene is that it extends the maximum ambient temperature from 85˚C to 100˚C. Most ceramic capacitors are unusable with > 1% hysteresis. Ceramic “NPO” or “COG” capacitors are now available for 125˚C operation and also have low dielectric absorption. For more exact data, see the curve Dielectric Absorption Error. www.national.com DC AND AC ZEROING DC zeroing is accomplished by connecting the offset adjust pin to the wiper of a 1 kΩ potentiometer which has one end tied to V+ and the other end tied through a resistor to ground. The resistor should be selected to give ≈0.6 mA through the 1k potentiometer. AC zeroing (hold step zeroing) can be obtained by adding an inverter with the adjustment pot tied input to output. A 10 pF capacitor from the wiper to the hold capacitor will give ± 4 mV hold step adjustment with a 0.01 µF hold capacitor and 5V logic supply. For larger logic swings, a smaller capacitor ( < 10 pF) may be used. LOGIC RISE TIME For proper operation, logic signals into the LF198 must have a minimum dV/dt of 1.0 V/µs. Slower signals will cause excessive hold step. If a R/C network is used in front of the 10 A second curve, Hold Settling Time indicates the time required for the output to settle to 1 mV after the “hold” command. (Continued) logic input for signal delay, calculate the slope of the waveform at the threshold point to ensure that it is at least 1.0 V/µs. DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH Fast rise time logic signals can cause hold errors by feeding externally into the analog input at the same time the amplifier is put into the hold mode. To minimize this problem, board layout should keep logic lines as far as possible from the analog input and the Ch pin. Grounded guarding traces may also be used around the input line, especially if it is driven from a high impedance source. Reducing high amplitude logic signals to 2.5V will also help. SAMPLING DYNAMIC SIGNALS Sample error to moving input signals probably causes more confusion among sample-and-hold users than any other parameter. The primary reason for this is that many users make the assumption that the sample and hold amplifier is truly locked on to the input signal while in the sample mode. In actuality, there are finite phase delays through the circuit creating an input-output differential for fast moving signals. In addition, although the output may have settled, the hold capacitor has an additional lag due to the 300Ω series resistor on the chip. This means that at the moment the “hold” command arrives, the hold capacitor voltage may be somewhat different than the actual analog input. The effect of these delays is opposite to the effect created by delays in the logic which switches the circuit from sample to hold. For example, consider an analog input of 20 Vp-p at 10 kHz. Maximum dV/dt is 0.6 V/µs. With no analog phase delay and 100 ns logic delay, one could expect up to (0.1 µs) (0.6V/µs) = 60 mVerror if the “hold” signal arrived near maximum dV/dt of the input. A positive-going input would give a +60 mV error. Now assume a 1 MHz (3 dB) bandwidth for the overall analog loop. This generates a phase delay of 160 ns. If the hold capacitor sees this exact delay, then error due to analog delay will be (0.16 µs) (0.6 V/µs) = −96 mV. Total output error is +60 mV (digital) −96 mV (analog) for a total of −36 mV. To add to the confusion, analog delay is proportioned to hold capacitor value while digital delay remains constant. A family of curves (dynamic sampling error) is included to help estimate errors. A curve labeled Aperture Time has been included for sampling conditions where the input is steady during the sampling period, but may experience a sudden change nearly coincident with the “hold” command. This curve is based on a 1 mV error fed into the output. Guarding Technique 20128105 Use 10-pin layout.
