Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
θJA is specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, θJA is
specified for a device soldered in the circuit board with its
exposed paddle soldered to a pad on the PCB surface that is
thermally connected to a copper plane, with zero airflow.
The power dissipated in the package (PD) is the sum of the
quiescent power dissipation and the power dissipated in the
package due to the output load drive. The quiescent power is
the voltage between the supply pins (VS) times the quiescent
current (IS). The power dissipated due to the load drive depends
upon the particular application. For each output, the power due
to load drive is calculated by multiplying the load current by the
associated voltage drop across the device. RMS voltages and
currents must be used in these calculations.
Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing θJA. In
addition, more metal directly in contact with the package leads
from metal traces, through holes, ground, and power planes
reduces the θJA. The exposed paddle on the underside of the
package must be soldered to a pad on the PCB surface that is
thermally connected to a copper plane to achieve the specified θJA.
Figure 3 shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the
package vs. the ambient temperature for the 8-lead SOIC_EP
(47°C/W) on a JEDEC standard four-layer board, with its
underside paddle soldered to a pad that is thermally connected
to a PCB plane. θJA values are approximations.

MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION (W)
Table 4.
Unit
°C/W
MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum safe power dissipation in the ADA4898-1
package is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature
(TJ) on the die. At approximately 150°C, which is the glass
transition temperature, the plastic changes its properties. Even
temporarily exceeding this temperature limit can change the
stresses that the package exerts on the die, permanently shifting
the parametric performance of the ADA4898-1. Exceeding a
junction temperature of 150°C for an extended period can
result in changes in the silicon devices, potentially causing
failure.

ADA4898-1
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADA4898-1 is a voltage feedback op amp that combines
unity-gain stability with 0.9 nV/√Hz input noise. It employs a
highly linear input stage that can maintain greater than −90 dBc
(@ 2 V p-p) distortion out to 500 kHz while in a unity-gain
configuration. This rare combination of low gain stability, low
input referred noise, and extremely low distortion is the result
of Analog Devices, Inc., proprietary op amp architecture and
high speed complementary bipolar processing technology.
CURRENT NOISE MEASUREMENT
The simplified ADA4898-1 topology, shown in Figure 40, is a
single gain stage with a unity-gain output buffer. It has over 100 dB
of open-loop gain and maintains precision specifications such
as CMRR, PSRR and offset to levels that are normally associated
with topologies having two or more gain stages.

To measure the very low (2.4 pA/√Hz) input current noise of
the ADA4898-1, 10 kΩ resistors were used on both inputs of the
amplifier. Figure 41 shows the noise measurement circuit used.
The 10 kΩ resistors are used on both inputs to balance the input
impedance and cancel the common-mode noise. In addition, a
high gain configuration is used to increase the total output noise
and bring it above the noise floor of the instrument.

PD (POWER DOWN) PIN
The PD pin saves power by decreasing the quiescent power
dissipated in the device. It is very useful when power is an issue
and the device does not need to be turned on at all times. The
response of the device is rapid when going from a power down
mode to full power operation mode. Note that PD does not put the
output in a high-Z state, which means that the ADA4898-1 is
not recommended for use as a multiplexer.

The ADA4898-1 schematic for the noninverting gain
configuration is nearly a textbook example (see Figure 42).
The only exception is the feedback capacitor in parallel with
the feedback resistor, RF, but this capacitor is recommended
only when using a large RF value (>300 Ω). Figure 43 shows the
difference between using a 100 Ω resistor and a 1 kΩ resistor.
Due to the high input capacitance in the ADA4898-1 when
using a higher feedback resistor, more peaking appears in the
closed-loop gain. Using the lower feedback resistor resolves this
issue; however, when running at higher supplies (±15 V) with
100 Ω RF, the system draws a lot of extra current into the
feedback network. To avoid this problem, a higher feedback
resistor can be used with a feedback capacitor in parallel. Figure 43
shows the effect of placing a feedback capacitor in parallel with
a larger RF. In this gain of 2 configuration, RF = RG = 1 kΩ and
CF = 2.7 pF. When using CF, the peaking drops from 6 dB to less
then 2 dB.

RECOMMENDED VALUES FOR VARIOUS GAINS
Table 6 provides a useful reference for determining various gains
and associated performance. Resistor RF is set to 100 Ω for gains
greater than 1. A low feedback RF resistor value reduces peaking
and minimizes the contribution to the overall noise performance
of the amplifier.

NOISE
CIRCUIT CONSIDERATIONS
To analyze the noise performance of an amplifier circuit,
identify the noise sources, and then determine if each source
has a significant contribution to the overall noise performance
of the amplifier. To simplify the noise calculations, noise spectral
densities were used rather than actual voltages to leave bandwidth
out of the expressions (noise spectral density, which is generally
expressed in nV/√Hz, is equivalent to the noise in a 1 Hz
bandwidth).
Careful and deliberate attention to detail when laying out the
ADA4898-1 board yields optimal performance. Power supply
bypassing, parasitic capacitance, and component selection all
contribute to the overall performance of the amplifier.
The noise model shown in Figure 44 has six individual noise
sources: the Johnson noise of the three resistors, the op amp
voltage noise, and the current noise in each input of the amplifier.
Each noise source has its own contribution to the noise at the
output. Noise is generally specified referred to input (RTI), but
it is often simpler to calculate the noise referred to the output
(RTO) and then divide by the noise gain to obtain the RTI noise.

Because the ADA4898-1 can operate up to 65 MHz, it is
essential that RF board layout techniques be employed. All
ground and power planes under the pins of the ADA4898-1
should be cleared of copper to prevent the formation of parasitic
capacitance between the input pins to ground and the output pins
to ground. A single mounting pad on a SOIC footprint can add
as much as 0.2 pF of capacitance to ground if the ground plane
is not cleared from under the mounting pads.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
Power supply bypassing for the ADA4898-1 has been optimized
for frequency response and distortion performance. Figure 42
shows the recommended values and location of the bypass
capacitors. Power supply bypassing is critical for stability,
frequency response, distortion, and PSR performance. The
0.1 μF capacitors shown in Figure 42 should be as close to the
supply pins of the ADA4898-1 as possible. The 10 μF electrolytic
capacitors should be adjacent to but not necessary close to the
0.1 μF capacitors. The capacitor between the two supplies helps
improve PSR and distortion performance. In some cases, additional
paralleled capacitors can help improve frequency and transient
response.

PCB LAYOUT
Figure 44. Op Amp Noise Analysis Model
All resistors have a Johnson noise that is calculated by
(4kBTR) .
where:
k is Boltzmann’s Constant (1.38 × 10−23 J/K).
B is the bandwidth in Hertz.
T is the absolute temperature in Kelvin.
R is the resistance in ohms.
A simple relationship that is easy to remember is that a 50 Ω
resistor generates a Johnson noise of 1 nV/√Hz at 25°C.
In applications where noise sensitivity is critical, care must be
taken not to introduce other significant noise sources to the
amplifier. Each resistor is a noise source. Attention to the
following areas is critical to maintain low noise performance:
design, layout, and component selection. A summary of noise
performance for the amplifier and associated resistors can be
seen in Table 6.
GROUNDING
Ground and power planes should be used where possible. Ground
and power planes reduce the resistance and inductance of the
power planes and ground returns. The returns for the input
and output terminations, bypass capacitors, and RG should all
be kept as close to the ADA4898-1 as possible. The output load
ground and the bypass capacitor grounds should be returned to
the same point on the ground plane to minimize parasitic trace
inductance, ringing, and overshoot and to improve distortion
performance.
The ADA4898-1 package features an exposed paddle. For
optimum electrical and thermal performance, solder this paddle to
ground. For more information on high speed circuit design, see
