The LT®1008 is a universal precision operational amplifier
that can be used in practically all precision applications.
The LT1008 combines for the first time, picoampere bias
currents (which are maintained over the full – 55°C to
125°C temperature range), microvolt offset voltage (and
low drift with time and temperature), low voltage and
current noise, and low power dissipation. Extremely high
common mode and power supply rejection ratios, and the
ability to deliver 5mA load current with high voltage gain
round out the LT1008’s superb precision specifications.
The all around excellence of the LT1008 eliminates the
necessity of the time consuming error analysis procedure
of precision system design in many applications; the
LT1008 can be stocked as the universal precision op amp.
The LT1008 is externally compensated with a single capacitor for additional flexibility in shaping the frequency
response of the amplifier. It plugs into and upgrades all
standard LM108A/LM308A applications. For an internally
compensated version with even lower offset voltage but
otherwise similar performance see the LT1012.

Achieving Picoampere/Microvolt Performance
In order to realize the picoampere—microvolt level accuracy of the LT1008, proper care must be exercised. For
example, leakage currents in circuitry external to the op
amp can significantly degrade performance. High quality
insulation should be used (e.g., TeflonTM, Kel-F); cleaning
of all insulating surfaces to remove fluxes and other
residues will probably be required. Surface coating may be
necessary to provide a moisture barrier in high humidity
environments.
The LT1008 is specified over a wide range of power supply
voltages from ±2V to ±18V. Operation with lower supplies
is possible down to ±1.2V (two Ni-Cad batteries).

Board leakage can be minimized by encircling the input
circuitry with a guard ring operated at a potential close to
that of the inputs: in inverting configurations the guard
ring should be tied to ground, in noninverting connections
to the inverting input at Pin 2. Guarding both sides of the
printed circuit board is required. Bulk leakage reduction
depends on the guard ring width. Nanoampere level leakage into the compensation terminals can affect offset
voltage and drift with temperature.

Noise Testing
The 0.1Hz to 10Hz peak-to-peak noise of the LT1008 is
measured in the test circuit shown. The frequency response of this noise tester indicates that the 0.1Hz corner
is defined by only one zero. The test time to measure 0.1Hz
to 10Hz noise should not exceed 10 seconds, as this time
limit acts as an additional zero to eliminate noise contributions from the frequency band below 0.1Hz.

Current noise is measured in the circuit shown and calculated by the following formula where the noise of the
source resistors is subtracted.

A noise voltage density test is recommended when measuring noise on a large number of units. A 10Hz noise
voltage density measurement will correlate well with a
0.1Hz to 10Hz peak-to-peak noise reading since both
results are determined by the white noise and the location
of the 1/f corner frequency.

Microvolt level error voltages can also be generated in the
external circuitry. Thermocouple effects caused by temperature gradients across dissimilar metals at the contacts to the input terminals can exceed the inherent drift of
the amplifier. Air currents over device leads should be
minimized, package leads should be short, and the two
input leads should be as close together as possible and
maintained at the same temperature.

Frequency Compensation
The LT1008 is externally frequency compensated with a
single capacitor. The two standard compensation circuits
shown earlier are identical to the LM108A/LM308A frequency compensation schemes. Therefore, the LT1008
operational amplifiers can be inserted directly into
LM108A/LM308A sockets, with similar AC and upgraded
DC performance.
External frequency compensation provides the user with
additional flexibility in shaping the frequency response of
the amplifier. For example, for a voltage gain of ten and
CF = 3pF, a gain bandwidth product of 5MHz and slew rate
of 1.2V/μs can be realized. For closed-loop gains in excess
of 200, no external compensation is necessary, and slew
rate increases to 4V/μs. The LT1008 can also be overcompensated (i.e., CF > 30pF or CS > 100pF) to improve capacitive load handling capability or to narrow noise bandwidth.
In many applications, the feedback loop around the amplifier has gain (e.g., logarithmic amplifiers); overcompensation can stabilize these circuits with a single capacitor.
The availability of the compensation terminals permits the
use of feedforward frequency compensation to enhance
slew rate in low closed-loop gain configurations. The
inverter slew rate is increased to 1.4V/μs. The voltage
follower feedforward scheme bypasses the amplifier’s
gain stages and slews at nearly 10V/μs.
The inputs of the LT1008 are protected with back-to-back
diodes. Current limiting resistors are not used, because the
leakage of these resistors would prevent the realization of
picoampere level bias currents at elevated temperatures.
0.1μF
1008 AI03
In the voltage follower configuration, when the input is
driven by a fast, large-signal pulse (>1V), the input protection diodes effectively short the output to the input during
slewing, and a current, limited only by the output shortcircuit protection, will flow through the diodes.
The use of a feedback resistor, as shown in the voltage
follower feedforward diagram, is recommended because
this resistor keeps the current below the short-circuit
limit, resulting in faster recovery and settling of the output.
