Two buffered limiting voltages take control of the output when it attempts to drive beyond these limits. This new output limiting architecture holds the limiter offset error to ±15mV. The op amp operates linearly to within 30mV of the limits. The combination of narrow nonlinear range and low limiting offset allows the limiting voltages to be set within 100mV of the desired linear output range. A fast 2.4ns recovery from limiting ensures that overdrive signals will be transparent to the signal channel. Implementing the limiting function at the output, as opposed to the input, gives the specified limiting accuracy for any gain, and allows the OPA689 to be used in all standard op amp applications. Non-linear analog signal processing circuits will benefit from the OPA689’s sharp transition from linear operation to output limiting. The quick recovery time supports high speed applications. The OPA689 is available in an industry-standard pinout in PDIP-8 and SO-8 packages. For lower gain applications requiring output limiting with fast recovery, consider the OPA688.

Burr-Brown recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

This is particularly true for high speed amplifier circuits where parasitic capacitance and inductance can have a major effect on frequency response. –VS = –5V FIGURE 5. Very High Speed Comparator. TRANSIMPEDANCE AMPLIFIER SPICE models are available through the Burr-Brown web site (www.burr-brown.com). These models do a good job of predicting small-signal AC and transient performance under a wide variety of operating conditions. They do not do as well in predicting the harmonic distortion, temperature effects, or different gain and phase characteristics. These models do not distinquish between the AC performance of different package types. Figure 6 shows a transimpedance amplifier that has exceptional overdrive characteristics. The feedback capacitor (CF) stabilizes the circuit for the assumed diode capacitance (CD). ® OPA689 12 OPERATING INFORMATION e) Choose low resistor values to minimize the time constant set by the resistor and its parasitic parallel capacitance. Good metal film or surface mount resistors have approximately 0.2pF parasitic parallel capacitance. For resistors > 1.5kΩ, this adds a pole and/or zero below 500MHz. THEORY OF OPERATION The OPA689 is a voltage feedback op amp that is stable for gains ≥ +4. The output voltage is limited to a range set by the limiter pins (5 and 8). When the input tries to overdrive the output, the limiters take control of the output buffer. This avoids saturating any parts in the signal path, gives quick overdrive recovery, and gives consistent limiter accuracy for any gain. Make sure that the output loading is not too heavy. The recommended 750Ω feedback resistor is a good starting point in your design. f) Use short direct traces to other wideband devices on the board. Short traces act as a lumped capacitive load. Wide traces (50 to 100 mils) should be used. Estimate the total capacitive load at the output, and use the series isolation resistor recommended in the RS vs Capacitive Load plot. Parasitic loads < 2pF may not need the isolation resistor. This part is de-compensated (stable for gains ≥ +4). This gives greater bandwidth, higher slew rate, and lower noise than the unity gain stable companion part OPA688. The limiters have a very sharp transition from the linear region of operation to output limiting. This allows the limiter voltages to be set very near (<100 mV) the desired signal range. The distortion performance is also very good near the limiter voltages. g) When long traces are necessary, use transmission line design techniques (consult an ECL design handbook for microstrip and stripline layout techniques). A 50Ω transmission line is not required on board—a higher characteristic impedance will help reduce output loading. Use a matching series resistor at the output of the op amp to drive a transmission line, and a matched load resistor at the other end to make the line appear as a resistor. If the 6dB of attenuation that the matched load produces is not acceptable, and the line is not too long, use the series resistor at the source only. This will isolate the op amp output from the reactive load presented by the line, but the frequency response will be degraded. CIRCUIT LAYOUT Achieving optimum performance with the high frequency OPA689 requires careful attention to layout design and component selection. Recommended PCB layout techniques and component selection criteria are: a) Minimize parasitic capacitance to any ac ground for all of the signal I/O pins. Open a window in the ground and power planes around the signal I/O pins, and leave the ground and power planes unbroken elsewhere. Multiple destination devices are best handled as separate transmission lines, each with its own series source and shunt load terminations. Any parasitic impedances acting on the terminating resistors will alter the transmission line match, and can cause unwanted signal reflections and reactive loading. b) Provide a high quality power supply. Use linear regulators, ground plane, and power planes, to provide power. Place high frequency 0.1µF decoupling capacitors < 0.2" away from each power supply pin. Use wide, short traces to connect to these capacitors to the ground and power planes. Also use larger (2.2µF to 6.8µF) high frequency decoupling capacitors to bypass lower frequencies. They may be somewhat further from the device, and be shared among several adjacent devices. h) Do not use sockets for high speed parts like the OPA689. The additional lead length and pin-to-pin capacitance introduced by the socket creates an extremely troublesome parasitic network. Best results are obtained by soldering the part onto the board. If socketing for DIP prototypes is desired, high frequency flush mount pins (e.g., McKenzie Technology #710C) can give good results. c) Place external components close to the OPA689. This minimizes inductance, ground loops, transmission line effects and propagation delay problems. Be extra careful with the feedback (RF), input and output resistors. POWER SUPPLIES d) Use high frequency components to minimize parasitic elements. Resistors should be a very low reactance type. Surface mount resistors work best and allow a tighter layout. Metal film or carbon composition axially-leaded resistors can also provide good performance when their leads are as short as possible. Never use wire-wound resistors for high frequency applications. Remember that most potentiometers have large parasitic capacitances and inductances. The OPA689 is nominally specified for operation using either ±5V supplies or a single +5V supply. The maximum specified total supply voltage of 13V allows reasonable tolerances on the supplies. Higher supply voltages can break down internal junctions, possibly leading to catastrophic failure. Single supply operation is possible as long as common mode voltage constraints are observed. The common mode input and output voltage specifications can be interpreted as a required headroom to the supply voltage. Observing this input and output headroom requirement will allow design of non-standard or single supply operation circuits. Figure 2 shows one approach to single-supply operation. Multilayer ceramic chip capacitors work best and take up little space. Monolithic ceramic capacitors also work very well. Use RF type capacitors with low ESR and ESL. The large power pin bypass capacitors (2.2µF to 6.8µF) should be tantalum for better high frequency and pulse performance. ® 13 OPA689 ESD PROTECTION When the limiter voltages need to be within 2.1V of the supplies (VL ≤ –VS + 2.1V or VH ≥ +VS – 2.1V), use low impedance voltage sources to set VH and VL to minimize errors due to bias current uncertainty. This will typically be the case for single supply operation (VS = +5V). Figure 2 runs 2.5mA through the resistive divider that sets VH and VL. This keeps errors due to IVH and IVL < ±1% of the target limit voltages. ESD damage is known to damage MOSFET devices, but any semiconductor device is vulnerable to ESD damage. This is particularly true for very high speed, fine geometry processes. ESD damage can cause subtle changes in amplifier input characteristics without necessarily destroying the device. In precision operational amplifiers, this may cause a noticeable degradation of offset voltage and drift. Therefore, ESD handling precautions are required when handling the OPA689. The limiters’ DC accuracy depends on attention to detail. The two dominant error sources can be improved as follows: • Power supplies, when used to drive resistive dividers that set VH and VL, can contribute large errors (e.g., (5%). Using a more accurate source, or bypassing pins 5 and 8 with good capacitors, will improve limiter PSRR. OUTPUT LIMITERS The output voltage is linearly dependent on the input(s) when it is between the limiter voltages VH (pin 8) and VL (pin 5). When the output tries to exceed VH or VL, the corresponding limiter buffer takes control of the output voltage and holds it at VH or VL. • The resistor tolerances in the resistive divider can also dominate. Use 1% resistors. Because the limiters act on the output, their accuracy does not change with gain. The transition from the linear region of operation to output limiting is sharp—the desired output signal can safely come to within 30mV of VH or VL. Distortion performance is also good over the same range. Other error sources also contribute, but should have little impact on the limiters’ DC accuracy: The limiter voltages can be set to within 0.7V of the supplies (VL ≥ –VS + 0.7V, VH ≤ +VS – 0.7V). They must also be at least 200mV apart (VH – VL ≥ 0.2V). • Consider the signal path DC errors as contributing to the uncertainty in the useable output range. • Reduce offsets caused by the Limiter Input Bias Currents. Select the resistors in the resistive divider(s) as described above. • The Limiter Offset Voltage only slightly degrades the limiter accuracy. When pins 5 and 8 are left open, VH and VL go to the Default Voltage Limit; the minimum values are in the spec table. Looking at Figure 7 for the zero bias current case will show the expected range of (VS – default limit voltages) = headroom). Figure 8 shows how the limiters affect distortion performance. Virtually no degradation in linearity is observed for output voltages swinging right up to the limiter voltages. When the limiter voltages are more than 2.1V from the supplies (VL ≥ –VS + 2.1V or VH ≤ +VS – 2.1V), you can use simple resistor dividers to set V H and VL (see Figure 1). Make sure you include the Limiter Input Bias Currents (Figure 7) in the calculations (i.e., IVL ≈ –50µA out of pin 5, and IVH ≈ +50µA out of pin 8). For good limiter voltage accuracy, run at least 1mA quiescent bias current through these resistors. 2nd and 3rd Harmonic Distortion (dBc) HARMONIC DISTORTION NEAR LIMIT VOLTAGES LIMITER INPUT BIAS CURRENT vs BIAS VOLTAGE 100 Limter Input Bias Current (µA) Maximum Over Temperature 75 50 –40 VO = 0VDC ±1Vp f1 = 5MHz RL = 500Ω –45 –50 –55 HD2 –60 –65 –70 –75 –80 HD3 –85 –90 0.9 25 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 ± Limit Voltage (V) Minimum Over Temperature 0 –25 –75 –100 FIGURE 8.

Limiter Bias Current vs Limiter Voltage. ® OPA689 14 1.7 1.8 1.9 2.0 OFFSET VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT The total internal power dissipation (PD) is the sum of quiescent power (PDQ) and the additional power dissipated in the output stage (PDL) while delivering load power. PDQ is simply the specified no-load supply current times the total supply voltage across the part. PDL depends on the required output signals and loads. For a grounded resistive load, and equal bipolar supplies, it is at a maximum when the output is at 1/2 either supply voltage. In this condition, PDL = VS2/(4RL) where RL includes the feedback network loading. Note that it is the power in the output stage, and not in the load, that determines internal power dissipation. The circuit in Figure 9 allows offset adjustment without degrading offset drift with temperature. Use this circuit with caution since power supply noise can inadvertently couple into the op amp. Remember that additional offset errors can be created by the amplifier’s input bias currents. Whenever possible, match the resistance seen by both DC Input Bias Currents by using R3. This minimizes the output offset voltage caused by the Input Bias Currents. +VS The operating junction temperature is: TJ = TA + PD θJA, where TA is the ambient temperature. R2 For example, the maximum TJ for a OPA689U with G = +6, RFB = 750Ω, RL = 100Ω, and ±VS = ±5V at the maximum TA = +85°C is calculated this way: RTRIM 47kΩ OPA689 VO P DQ = (10V • 20mA ) = 200mW –VS 0.1µF R1 P DL = R3 = R1 || R2 ( 5V )2 4 • (100Ω || 850Ω ) P D = 200mW + 70mW = 270mW T J = 85° C + 270mW •125° C/ W = 119° C VIN or Ground CAPACITIVE LOADS NOTES: (1) R3 is optional and minimizes output offset due to input bias currents. (2) Set R1 << RTRIM. Capacitive loads, such as flash A/D converters, will decrease the amplifier’s phase margin, which may cause peaking or oscillations. Capacitive loads ≥ 1pF should be isolated by connecting a small resistor in series with the output as shown in Figure 10. Increasing the gain from +6 will improve the capacitive drive capabilities due to increased phase margin. FIGURE 9. Offset Voltage Trim. OUTPUT DRIVE The OPA689 has been optimized to drive 500Ω loads, such as A/D converters. It still performs very well driving 100Ω loads. This makes the OPA689 an ideal choice for a wide range of high frequency applications. RISO Many high speed applications, such as driving A/D converters, require op amps with low output impedance. As shown in the Output Impedance vs Frequency performance curve, the OPA689 maintains very low closed-loop output impedance over frequency. Closed-loop output impedance increases with frequency since loop gain decreases with frequency. VO OPA689 RL CL RL is optional FIGURE 10. Driving Capacitive Loads. THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS The OPA689 will not require heat-sinking under most operating conditions. Maximum desired junction temperature will set a maximum allowed internal power dissipation as described below. In no case should the maximum junction temperature be allowed to exceed 175°C. In general, capacitive loads should be minimized for optimum high frequency performance. The capacitance of coax cable (29pF/foot for RG-58) will not load the amplifier when the coaxial cable, or transmission line, is terminated in its characteristic impedance. ® 15 OPA689 FREQUENCY RESPONSE COMPENSATION recommended RS in the RS vs Capacitive Load plot. Extremely fine scale settling (0.01%) requires close attention to ground return current in the supply decoupling capacitors. The OPA689 is internally compensated to be stable at a gain of +4, and has a nominal phase margin of 60° at a gain of +6. Phase margin and peaking improve at higher gains. Recall that an inverting gain of –5 is equivalent to a gain of +6 for bandwidth purposes (i.e., noise gain = 6). The pulse settling characteristics when recovering from overdrive are very good. Standard external compensation techniques work with this device. For example, in the inverting configuration, the bandwidth may be limited without modifying the inverting gain by placing a series RC network to ground on the inverting node. This has the effect of increasing the noise gain at high frequencies, which limits the bandwidth. DISTORTION The OPA689’s distortion performance is specified for a 500Ω load, such as an A/D converter. Driving loads with smaller resistance will increase the distortion as illustrated in Figure 11. Remember to include the feedback network in the load resistance calculations. To maintain a large bandwidth at high gains, cascade several op amps. In applications where a large feedback resistor is required, such as photodiode transimpedance amplifier, the parasitic capacitance from the inverting input to ground causes peaking or oscillations. To compensate for this effect, connect a small capacitor in parallel with the feedback resistor. The bandwidth will be limited by the pole that the feedback resistor and this capacitor create. In other high gain applications, use a three resistor “Tee” network to reduce the RC time constants set by the parasitic capacitances. Be careful to not increase the noise generated by this feedback network too much. 2nd and 3rd Harmonic Distortion (dBc) HARMONIC DISTORTION vs LOAD RESISTANCE PULSE SETTLING TIME The OPA689 is capable of an extremely fast settling time in response to a pulse input.
