LPC661
Low Power CMOS Operational Amplifier
General Description
The LPC661 CMOS operational amplifier is ideal for operation from a single supply. It features a wide range of operating supply voltage from +5V to +15V, rail-to-rail output swing
and an input common-mode range that includes ground.
Performance limitations that have plagued CMOS amplifiers
in the past are not a problem with this design. Input VOS,
drift, and broadband noise as well as voltage gain (into 100
kΩ and 5 kΩ) are all equal to or better than widely accepted
bipolar equivalents, while the supply current requirement is
typically 55 µA.
This chip is built with National’s advanced Double-Poly
Silicon-Gate CMOS process.
See the LPC660 datasheet for a Quad CMOS operational
amplifier or the LPC662 data sheet for a Dual CMOS operational amplifier with these same features.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be 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.
Note 2: Applies to both single supply and split supply operation. Continuous short circuit operation at elevated ambient temperature can result in exceeding the maximum allowed junction temperature of 150˚C. Output currents in excess of ± 30 mA over long term may adversely affect reliability.
Note 3: The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD =
(TJ(max)–TA)/θJA.
Note 4: Limits are guaranteed by testing or correlation.
Note 5: V+ = 15V, VCM = 7.5V and RL connected to 7.5V. For sourcing tests, 7.5V ≤ VO ≤ 11.5V. For sinking tests, 2.5V ≤ VO ≤ 7.5V.
Note 6: V+ = 15V. Connected as Voltage Follower with 10V step input. Number specified is the slower of the positive and negative slew rates.
Note 7: For operating at elevated temperatures the device must be derated based on the thermal resistance θJA with PD = (TJ–TA)/θJA.
Note 8: All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board.
Note 9: Do not connect output to V+ when V+ is greater than 13V or reliability may be adversely affected.

AMPLIFIER TOPOLOGY
The topology chosen for the LPC661 is unconventional
(compared to general-purpose op amps) in that the traditional unity-gain buffer output stage is not used; instead, the
output is taken directly from the output of the integrator, to allow rail-to-rail output swing. Since the buffer traditionally delivers the power to the load, while maintaining high op amp
gain and stability, and must withstand shorts to either rail,
these tasks now fall to the integrator.
As a result of these demands, the integrator is a compound
affair with an embedded gain stage that is doubly fed forward
(via Cf and Cff) by a dedicated unity-gain compensation
driver. In addition, the output portion of the integrator is a
push-pull configuration for delivering heavy loads. While
sinking current the whole amplifier path consists of three
gain stages with one stage fed forward, whereas while
sourcing the path contains four gain stages with two fed
forward.
DS011227-7
FIGURE 2. Rx, Cx Improve Capacitive Load Tolerance
Capacitive load driving capability is enhanced by using a pull
up resistor to V+ (Figure 3). Typically a pull up resistor conducting 50 µA or more will significantly improve capacitive
load responses. The value of the pull up resistor must be determined based on the current sinking capability of the amplifier with respect to the desired output swing. Open loop gain
of the amplifier can also be affected by the pull up resistor
(see Electrical Characteristics).
DS011227-6
FIGURE 1. LPC661 Circuit Topology
DS011227-24
FIGURE 3. Compensating for Large
Capacitive Loads with A Pull Up Resistor
The large signal voltage gain while sourcing is comparable
to traditional bipolar op amps, for load resistance of at least
5 kΩ. The gain while sinking is higher than most CMOS op
amps, due to the additional gain stage; however, when driving load resistance of 5 kΩ or less, the gain will be reduced
as indicated in the Electrical Characteristics. The op amp
can drive load resistance as low as 500Ω without instability.
PRINTED-CIRCUIT-BOARD LAYOUT
FOR HIGH-IMPEDANCE WORK
It is generally recognized that any circuit which must operate
with less than 1000 pA of leakage current requires special
layout of the PC board. When one wishes to take advantage
of the ultra-low bias current of the LPC661, typically less
than 0.04 pA, it is essential to have an excellent layout. Fortunately, the techniques for obtaining low leakages are quite
simple. First, the user must not ignore the surface leakage of
the PC board, even though it may sometimes appear acceptably low, because under conditions of high humidity or dust
or contamination, the surface leakage will be appreciable.
To minimize the effect of any surface leakage, lay out a ring
of foil completely surrounding the LPC661’s inputs and the
terminals of capacitors, diodes, conductors, resistors, relay
terminals, etc. connected to the op-amp’s inputs. See Figure
4. To have a significant effect, guard rings should be placed
on both the top and bottom of the PC board. This PC foil
must then be connected to a voltage which is at the same
voltage as the amplifier inputs, since no leakage current can
flow between two points at the same potential. For example,
a PC board trace-to-pad resistance of 1012Ω, which is normally considered a very large resistance, could leak 5 pA if
the trace were a 5V bus adjacent to the pad of an input. This
would cause a 100 times degradation from the LPC660’s actual performance. However, if a guard ring is held within
5 mV of the inputs, then even a resistance of 1011Ω would
cause only 0.05 pA of leakage current, or perhaps a minor
COMPENSATING INPUT CAPACITANCE
Refer to the LMC660 or LMC662 datasheets to determine
whether or not a feedback capacitor will be necessary for
compensation and what the value of that capacitor would be.
CAPACITIVE LOAD TOLERANCE
Like many other op amps, the LPC661 may oscillate when
its applied load appears capacitive. The threshold of oscillation varies both with load and circuit gain. The configuration
most sensitive to oscillation is a unity-gain follower. See the
Typical Performance Characteristics.
The load capacitance interacts with the op amp’s output resistance to create an additional pole. If this pole frequency is
sufficiently low, it will degrade the op amp’s phase margin so
that the amplifier is no longer stable at low gains. The addition of a small resistor (50Ω to 100Ω) in series with the op
amp’s output, and a capacitor (5 pF to 10 pF) from inverting
input to output pins, returns the phase margin to a safe value
without interfering with lower-frequency circuit operation.
Thus, larger values of capacitance can be tolerated without
oscillation. Note that in all cases, the output will ring heavily
when the load capacitance is near the threshold for
oscillation.

high impedance, the guard can be tied to ground and still
provide some protection; see Figure 8.

The designer should be aware that when it is inappropriate
to lay out a PC board for the sake of just a few circuits, there
is another technique which is even better than a guard ring
on a PC board: Don’t insert the amplifier’s input pin into the
board at all, but bend it up in the air and use only air as an insulator. Air is an excellent insulator. In this case you may
have to forego some of the advantages of PC board con-

effort of using point-to-point up-in-the-air wiring. See Figure

A suitable capacitor for C2 would be a 5 pF or 10 pF silver
mica, NPO ceramic, or air-dielectric. When determining the
magnitude of I−, the leakage of the capacitor and socket
must be taken into account. Switch S2 should be left shorted
most of the time, or else the dielectric absorption of the capacitor C2 could cause errors.
Similarly, if S1 is shorted momentarily (while leaving S2
shorted)

Note: A 5V bias on the photodiode can cut its capacitance by a factor of 2

the photodiode will cause photodiode leakage (also known as its dark
current).
