Note 1: Specification is at TA e 25§ C. Actual values at operating temperature may differ from the TA e 25§ C value. When supply
voltages are g 15V, quiescent operating junction temperature will rise approximately 20§ C without heatsinking. Accordingly,
VOS may change 0.5 mV and IB and IOS will change significantly during warm-ups. Refer to IB vs. temperature and power
dissipation graphs for expected values.
Note 2: Change in offset voltage with dissipated power is due entirely to average device temperature rise and not to differential
thermal feedback effects. Test is performed without any heatsink.
Note 3: At light loads, the output swing may be limited by the second stage rather than the output stage. See the application section
under ‘‘Output swing enhancement’’ for hints on how to obtain extended operation. RSC is the current sense resistor.

one supply which can cause excessive current in
the second supply. Destruction of the IC could
result if the current to the inputs of the device is
not limited to less than 100 mA or if there is
much more than 1 mF bypass on the supply bus.
Applications Information
Input Voltages
The ELH0101 operational amplifier contains
JFET input devices which exhibit high reverse
breakdown voltages from gate to source or drain.
This eliminates the need for input clamp diodes,
so that high differential input voltages may be
applied without a large increase in input current.
However, neither input voltage should be allowed
to exceed the negative supply as the resultant
high current flow may destroy the unit.
Although difficulties can be largely avoided by
installing clamp diodes across the supply lines on
every PC board, a conservative design would include enough resistance in the input lead to limit
current to 10 mA if the input lead is pulled to
either supply by internal currents. This precaution is by no means limited to the ELH0101.
Exceeding the negative common-mode limit on
either input will cause a reversal of the phase to
the output and force the amplifier output to the
corresponding high or low state. Exceeding the
negative common-mode limit on both inputs will
force the amplifier output to a high state. In neither case does a latch occur since raising the input back within the common-mode range again
puts the input stage and thus the amplifier in a
normal operating mode.
Layout Considerations
When working with circuitry capable of resolving
picoampere level signals, leakage currents in circuitry external to the op amp can significantly
degrade performance. High quality insulation is a
must (Kel-F and Teflon rate high). Proper cleaning of all insulating surfaces to remove fluxes and
other residues is also required. This includes the
IC package as well as sockets and printed circuit
boards. When operating in high humidity environments or near 0§ C, some form of surface coating may be necessary to provide a moisture barrier.
Exceeding the positive common-mode limit on a
single input will not change the phase of the output, however; if both inputs exceed the limit, the
output of the amplifier will be forced to a high
state.
The effects of board leakage can be minimized by
encircling the input circuitry with a conductive
guard ring operated at a potential close to that of
the inputs.
These amplifiers will operate with the commonmode input voltage equal to the positive supply.
In fact, the common-mode voltage may exceed
the positive supply by approximately 100 mV, independent of supply voltage and over the full operating temperature range. The positive supply
may therefore be used as a reference on an input
as, for example, in a supply current monitor and/
or limiter.
Electrostatic shielding of high impedance circuitry is advisable.
Error voltages can also be generated in the external circuitry. Thermocouples formed between dissimilar metals can cause hundreds of microvolts
of error in the presence of temperature gradients.
With the ELH0101 there is a temptation to remove the bias current compensation resistor normally used on the non-inverting input of a summing amplifier. Direct connection of the inputs
to ground or a low-impedance voltage source is
not recommended with supply voltages greater
than 3V. The potential problem involves loss of
Since the ELH0101 can deliver large output currents, careful attention should be paid to power
supply, power supply bypassing and load currents. Incorrect grounding of signal inputs and
load can cause significant errors.

Thermal Resistance
Every attempt should be made to achieve a single point ground system as shown in the figure

The thermal resistance between two points of a
conductive system is expressed as:

where subscript order indicates the direction of
heat flow. A simplified heat transfer circuit for a
cased semiconductor and heatsink system is
shown in the figure below.
The circuit is valid only if the system is in thermal equilibrium (constant heat flow) and there
are, indeed, single specific temperatures, TJ, TC,
and TS, (no temperature distribution in junction,
case, or heatsink). Nevertheless, this is a reasonable approximation of actual performance.
0101 – 14
Bypass capacitor CBX should be used if the lead
lengths of bypass capacitors CB are long. If a single point ground system is not possible, keep signal, load, and power supply from intermingling
as much as possible. For further information on
proper grounding techniques refer to ‘‘Grounding
and Shielding Techniques in Instrumentation’’
by Morrison, and ‘‘Noise Reduction Techniques
in Electronic Systems’’ by Ott (both published
by John Wiley and Sons).

*Short circuit current will be limited to approximately

.
RSC
The junction-to-case thermal resistance, iJC,
specified in the data sheet depends upon the material and size of the package, die size and thickness, and quality of the die bond to the case or
lead frame. The case-to-heatsink thermal resistance, iCS, depends on the mounting of the device
to the heatsink and upon the area and quality of
the contact surface. Typical iCS for a TO-3 package is 0.5§ C/W to 0.7§ C/W, and 0.3§ C/W to
0.5§ C/W using silicone grease.
Leads or PC board traces to the supply pins,
short circuit current limit pins, and the output
pin must be substantial enough to handle the
high currents that the ELH0101 is capable of
producing.
Short Circuit Current Limiting
Should current limiting of the output not be necessary, SC a should be shorted to V a and SC b
should be shorted to V b . Remember that the
short circuit current limit is dependent upon the
total resistance seen between the supply and current limit pins. This total resistance includes the
desired resistor plus leads, PC Board traces, and
solder joints.* Assuming a zero TCR current limit resistor, typical temperature coefficient of the
short circuit will be approximately 0.3%.
The heatsink to ambient thermal resistance, iSA,
depends on the quality of the heatsink and the
ambient conditions.

Some inductive loads may cause output stage oscillation. A 0.01 mF ceramic capacitor in series
with a 10X resistor from the output to ground
will usually remedy this situation.

the device below the specified maximum value,

Capacitive loads may be compensated for by traditional techniques. (See ‘‘Operational Amplifiers: Theory and Practice’’ by Roberge, published
by Wiley.)
iJC for the ELH0101 is typically 2§ C/W.
Stability and Compensation
As with most amplifiers, care should be taken
with lead dress, component placement and supply decoupling in order to ensure stability. For
example, resistors from the output to an input
should be placed with the body close to the input
to minimize ‘‘pickup’’ and maximize the frequency of the feedback pole by minimizing the capacitance from the input to ground.
A feedback pole is created when the feedback
around any amplifier is resistive. The parallel resistance and capacitance from the input of the
device (usually the inverting input) to AC
ground set the frequency of the pole. In many
instances the frequency of this pole is much
greater than the expected 3 dB frequency of the
closed loop gain and consequently there is negligible effect on stability margin. However, if the
feedback pole is less than approximately six
times the expected 3 dB frequency, a lead capacitor should be placed from the output to the input
of the op amp. The value of the added capacitor
should be such that the RC time constant of this
capacitor and the resistance it parallels is greater
than or equal to the original feedback pole time
constant.

for the ELH0101.

amp must be appropriately compensated to account for the additional loop gain.
Output Swing Enhancement
When the feedback pin is connected directly to
the output, the output voltage swing is limited
by the driver stage and not by output saturation.
Output swing can be increased by taking gain in
the output stage as shown below in the High
Power Voltage Follower with Swing Enhancement. Whenever gain is taken in the output
stage, either the output stage, or the entire op
Output Resistance
The open-loop output resistance of the ELH0101
is a function of the load current. No-load output
resistance is approximately 10X. This decreases
to under an X for load currents exceeding
100 mA.
