For example, compensation can be selected to optimize the bandwidth for a given load and power supply voltage. As a gain-of-two line driver, the –3 dB bandwidth can be increased to 95 MHz at the expense of 1 dB of peaking. In addition, the AD829’s output can also be clamped at its external compensation pin. The AD829 has excellent dc performance. It offers a minimum open-loop gain of 30 V/mV into loads as low as 500 Ω, low input voltage noise of 1.7 nV/√Hz, and a low input offset voltage of 1 mV maximum. Common-mode rejection and power supply rejection ratios are both 120 dB. The AD829 is also useful in multichannel, high speed data conversion where its fast (90 ns to 0.1%) settling time is of importance. In such applications, the AD829 serves as an input buffer for 8-to-10-bit A/D converters and as an output I/V converter for high speed D/A converters. NC = NO CONNECT NC NC CCOMP –V 9 10 11 12 13 NC The AD829 is a low noise (1.7 nV/√Hz), high speed op amp with custom compensation that provides the user with gains from ± 1 to ± 20 while maintaining a bandwidth greater than 50 MHz. The AD829’s 0.04° differential phase and 0.02% differential gain performance at 3.58 MHz and 4.43 MHz, driving reverse-terminated 50 Ω or 75 Ω cables, makes it ideally suited for professional video applications. The AD829 achieves its 230 V/µs uncompensated slew rate and 750 MHz gain bandwidth product while requiring only 5 mA of current from the power supplies. The AD829 provides many of the same advantages that a transimpedance amplifier offers, while operating as a traditional voltage feedback amplifier. A bandwidth greater than 50 MHz can be maintained for a range of gains by changing the external compensation capacitor. The AD829 and the transimpedance amplifier are both unity gain stable and provide similar voltage noise performance (1.7 nV/√Hz). However, the current noise of the AD829 (1.5 pA/√Hz) is less than 10% of the noise of transimpedance amps. Furthermore, the inputs of the AD829 are symmetrical. PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS 1. Input voltage noise of 2 nV/√Hz, current noise of 1.5 pA/ √Hz and 50 MHz bandwidth, for gains of 1 to 20, make the AD829 an ideal preamp. 2. Differential phase error of 0.04° and a 0.02% differential gain error, at the 3.58 MHz NTSC and 4.43 MHz PAL and SECAM color subcarrier frequencies, make it an outstanding video performer for driving reverse-terminated 50 Ω and 75 Ω cables to ± 1 V (at their terminated end). 3. The AD829 can drive heavy capacitive loads. 4. Performance is fully specified for operation from ± 5 V to ± 15 V supplies. 5. Available in plastic, cerdip, and small outline packages. Chips and MIL-STD-883B parts are also available. REV. E Information furnished by Analog Devices is believed to be accurate and reliable.

Unity Gain Inverter Small Signal Pulse Response –7– AD829 +VS THEORY OF OPERATION The AD829 is fabricated on Analog Devices’ proprietary complementary bipolar (CB) process which provides PNP and NPN transistors with similar fTs of 600 MHz. As shown in Figure 25, the AD829 input stage consists of an NPN differential pair in which each transistor operates at 600 µA collector current. This gives the input devices a high transconductance and hence gives the AD829 a low noise figure of 2 nV/√Hz @ 1 kHz. 15⍀ OUTPUT The input stage drives a folded cascode which consists of a fast pair of PNP transistors. These PNPs then drive a current mirror which provides a differential-input to single-ended-output conversion. The high speed PNPs are also used in the currentamplifying output stage which provides high current gain of 40,000. Even under conditions of heavy loading, the high fTs of the NPN & PNPs, produced using the CB process, permit cascading two stages of emitter followers while still maintaining 60° of phase margin at closed-loop bandwidths greater than 50 MHz. Two stages of complementary emitter followers also effectively buffer the high impedance compensation node (at the CCOMP pin) from the output so that the AD829 can maintain a high dc open-loop gain, even into low load impedances: 92 dB into a 150 Ω load, 100 dB into a 1 kΩ load. Laser trimming and PTAT biasing assure low offset voltage and low offset voltage drift enabling the user to eliminate ac coupling in many applications. For added flexibility, the AD829 provides access to the internal frequency compensation node. This allows the user to customize frequency response characteristics for a particular application. +IN 15⍀ –IN 1.2mA –VS OFFSET NULL CCOMP Figure 25. AD829 Simplified Schematic Shunt Compensation Figures 26 and 27 show that the first method, shunt compensation, has an external compensation capacitor, CCOMP, connected between the compensation pin and ground. This external capacitor is tied in parallel with approximately 3 pF of internal capacitance at the compensation node. In addition, a small capacitance, CLEAD, in parallel with resistor R2, compensates for the capacitance at the amplifier’s inverting input. R2 CLEAD Unity gain stability requires a compensation capacitance of 68 pF (Pin 5 to ground) which will yield a small signal bandwidth of 66 MHz and slew rate of 16 V/µs. The slew rate and gain bandwidth product will vary inversely with compensation capacitance. Table I and the graph of Figure 28 show the optimum compensation capacitance and the resulting slew rate for a desired noise gain. For gains between 1 and 20, CCOMP can be chosen to keep the small signal bandwidth relatively constant. The minimum gain which will still provide stability also depends on the value of external compensation capacitance. An RC network in the output stage (Figure 25) completely removes the effect of capacitive loading when the amplifier is compensated for closed-loop gains of 10 or higher. At low frequencies, and with low capacitive loads, the gain from the compensation node to the output is very close to unity. In this case, C is bootstrapped and does not contribute to the compensation capacitance of the device. As the capacitive load is increased, a pole is formed with the output impedance of the output stage– this reduces the gain, and subsequently, C is incompletely bootstrapped. Therefore, some fraction of C contributes to the compensation capacitance, and the unity gain bandwidth falls. As the load capacitance is further increased, the bandwidth continues to fall, and the amplifier remains stable.

The capacitor values given were selected to provide a small signal frequency response with less than 1 dB of peaking and less than 10% overshoot. For this table, supply voltages of ± 15 volts should be used. Figure 28 is a graphical extension of the table which shows the slew rate/gain trade-off for lower closed-loop gains, when using the shunt compensation scheme. then: This shows that the slew rate will be only 0.314 V/µs for every MHz of bandwidth. The only way to increase slew rate is to increase the fT and that is difficult, due to process limitations. Unfortunately, an amplifier with a bandwidth of 10 MHz can only slew at 3.1 V/µs, which is barely enough to provide a full power bandwidth of 50 kHz. 1k 100 The AD829 is especially suited to a new form of compensation which allows for the enhancement of both the full power bandwidth and slew rate of the amplifier. The voltage gain from the inverting input pin to the compensation pin is large; therefore, if a capacitance is inserted between these pins, the amplifier’s bandwidth becomes a function of its feedback resistor and this capacitance. The slew rate of the amplifier is now a function of its internal bias (2I) and this compensation capacitance. 10 100 SLEW RATE = V/s SLEW RATE CCOMP CCOMP – pF Slew Rate kT =4π q fT Since the closed-loop bandwidth is a function of RF and CCOMP (Figure 29), it is independent of the amplifier closed-loop gain, as shown in Figure 31. To preserve stability, the time constant of RF and CCOMP needs to provide a bandwidth of less than 65 MHz. For example, with CCOMP = 15 pF and RF = 1 kΩ, the small signal bandwidth of the AD829 is 10 MHz, while Figure 30 shows that the slew rate is in excess of 60 V/µs. As can be seen in Figure 31, the closed-loop bandwidth is constant for gains of –1 to –4, a property of current feedback amplifiers. VS = ⴞ15V 10 100 1 1 10 NOISE GAIN Figure 28.

CCOMP = 4 pF, RF = 1 kΩ, R1 = 1 kΩ Figure 32 is an oscilloscope photo of the pulse response of a unity gain inverter which has been configured to provide a small signal bandwidth of 53 MHz and a subsequent slew rate of 180 V/µs; resistor RF = 3 kΩ, capacitor CCOMP = 1 pF.

If a noninverting amplifier configuration using current feedback compensation is desired, the circuit of Figure 36 is recommended. This circuit doubles the slew rate compared to the shunt compensated noninverting amplifier of Figure 27 at the expense of gain flatness. Nonetheless, this circuit delivers 95 MHz bandwidth with ± 1 dB flatness into a back terminated cable, with a differential gain error of only 0.01%, and a differential phase error of only 0.015° at 4.43 MHz.

A Video Line Driver with a Flatness over Frequency Adjustment Figure 38 shows a three op amp instrumentation amplifier circuit which provides a gain of 100 at video bandwidths. At a circuit gain of 100 the small signal bandwidth equals 18 MHz into an FET probe. Small signal bandwidth equals 6.6 MHz with a 50 Ω load. 0.1% settling time is 300 ns. The input amplifiers operate at a gain of 20, while the output op amp runs at a gain of 5. In this circuit the main bandwidth limitation is the gain/ bandwidth product of the output amplifier. Extra care needs to be taken while breadboarding this circuit, since even a couple of extra picofarads of stray capacitance at the compensation pins of A1 and A2 will degrade circuit bandwidth. 3pF (G = 20) VOUT 75⍀ 30pF CCOMP A High Gain, Video Bandwidth Three Op Amp In Amp +VIN 2k⍀ 2–8pF SETTLING TIME AC CMR ADJUST A1 AD829 1k⍀ 2k⍀ RG 210⍀ 1pF 200⍀ 1pF 200⍀ AD848 A3 (G = 5) 2k⍀ INPUT FREQUENCY 2k⍀ 100 Hz 1 MHz 10 MHz 3pF 970⍀ AD829 A2 +VIN DC CMR ADJUST 50⍀ +VS +15V PIN 7 10F 0.1F 1F 0.1F 10F 0.1F 1F 0.1F COMM (G = 20) 3pF CMRR 64.6dB 44.7dB 23.9dB CIRCUIT GAIN = + 1( 5 ( 4000⍀ RG –15V –VS Figure 38.
