GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The OP191, OP291 and OP491 are single, dual and quad micropower, single-supply, 3 MHz bandwidth amplifiers featuring rail-to-rail inputs and outputs. All are guaranteed to operate from a 3 volt single supply as well as ± 5 volt dual supplies. Fabricated on Analog Devices’ CBCMOS process, the OP191 family has a unique input stage that allows the input voltage to safely extend 10 volts beyond either supply without any phase inversion or latch-up. The output voltage swings to within millivolts of the supplies and continues to sink or source current all the way to the supplies. Applications for these amplifiers include portable telecom equipment, power supply control and protection, and interface for transducers with wide output ranges. Sensors requiring a rail-to-rail input amplifier include Hall effect, piezo electric, and resistive transducers. The ability to swing rail-to-rail at both the input and output enables designers to build multistage filters in single-supply systems and maintain high signal-to-noise ratios. The OP191/OP291/OP491 are specified over the extended industrial (–40°C to +125°C) temperature range. The OP191 single and OP291 dual amplifiers are available in 8-pin plastic DIPs and SO surface mount packages. The OP491 quad is available in 14-pin DIPs and narrow 14-pin SO packages. Consult factory for OP491 TSSOP availability.

OP191/OP291/OP491
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The OP191/OP291/OP491 are single supply, micropower amplifiers featuring rail-to-rail inputs and outputs. In order to achieve wide input and output ranges, these amplifiers employ unique input and output stages. As the simplified schematic shows (Figure 55), the input stage is actually comprised of two differential pairs, a PNP pair and an NPN pair. These two stages do not actually work in parallel. Instead, only one or the other stage is on for any given input signal level. The PNP stage (transistors Q1 and Q2) is required to ensure that the amplifier remains in the linear region when the input voltage approaches and reaches the negative rail. On the other hand, the NPN stage (transistors Q5 and Q6) is needed for input voltages up to and including the positive rail. For the majority of the input common-mode range, the PNP stage is active, as is evidenced by examining the graph of Input Bias Current vs. Common-Mode Voltage. Notice that the bias current switches direction at approximately 1.2 volts to 1.3 volts below the positive rail. At voltages below this, the bias current flows out of the OP291, indicating a PNP input stage. Above this voltage, however, the bias current enters the device, revealing the NPN stage. The actual mechanism within the amplifier for switching between the input stages is comprised of the transistors Q3, Q4, and Q7. As the input common-mode voltage increases, the emitters of Q1 and Q2 follow that voltage plus a diode drop. Eventually the emitters of Q1 and Q2 are high enough to turn Q3 on. This diverts the 8 µA of tail current away from the PNP input stage, turning it off. Instead, the current is mirrored through Q4 and Q7 to activate the NPN input stage. Notice that the input stage includes 5 kΩ series resistors and differential diodes, a common practice in bipolar amplifiers to protect the input transistors from large differential voltages. These diodes will turn on whenever the differential voltage
exceeds approximately 0.6 V. In this condition, current will flow between the input pins, limited only by the two 5 kΩ resistors. Being aware of this characteristic is important in circuits where the amplifier may be operated open-loop, such as a comparator. Evaluate each circuit carefully to make sure that the increase in current does not affect the performance. The output stage of the OP191 family uses a PNP and an NPN transistor as do most output stages; however, the output transistors, Q32 and Q33, are actually connected with their collectors to the output pin to achieve the rail-to-rail output swing. As the output voltage approaches either the positive or negative rail, these transistors begin to saturate. Thus, the final limit on output voltage is the saturation voltage of these transistors, which is about 50 mV. The output stage does have inherent gain arising from the collectors and any external load impedance. Because of this, the open-loop gain of the amplifier is dependent on the load resistance.
Input Overvoltage Protection
As with any semiconductor device, whenever the condition exists for the input to exceed either supply voltage, attention needs to be paid to the input overvoltage characteristic. When an overvoltage occurs, the amplifier could be damaged depending on the voltage level and the magnitude of the fault current. Figure 56 shows the characteristic for the OP191 family. This graph was generated with the power supplies at ground and a curve tracer connected to the input. As can be seen, when the input voltage exceeds either supply by more than 0.6 V, internal pn-junctions energize allowing current to flow from the input to the supplies. As described above, the OP291/OP491 does have 5 kΩ resistors in series with each input, which helps limit the current. Calculating the slope of the current versus voltage in the graph confirms the 5 kΩ resistor.

determines the lower limit of their common-mode range. With these devices, external clamping diodes, with the anode connected to ground and the cathode to the inputs, prevent input signal excursions from exceeding the device’s negative supply (i.e., GND), preventing a condition which could cause the output voltage to change phase. JFET-input amplifiers may also exhibit phase reversal, and, if so, a series input resistor is usually required to prevent it. The OP191 family is free from reasonable input voltage range restrictions due to its novel input structure. In fact, the input signal can exceed the supply voltage by a significant amount without causing damage to the device. As illustrated in Figure 57, the OP191 family can safely handle a 20 V p-p input signal on ± 5 V supplies without exhibiting any sign of output voltage phase reversal or other anomalous behavior. Thus no external clamping diodes are required.
Overdrive Recovery
–1mA
–2mA
Figure 56. Input Overvoltage Characteristics
This input current is not inherently damaging to the device as long as it is limited to 5 mA or less. In the case shown, for an input of 10 V over the supply, the current is limited to 1.8 mA. If the voltage is large enough to cause more than 5 mA of current to flow, then an external series resistor should be added. The size of this resistor is calculated by dividing the maximum overvoltage by 5 mA and subtracting the internal 5 kΩ resistor. For example, if the input voltage could reach 100 V, the external resistor should be (100 V/5 mA) –5 k = 15 kΩ. This resistance should be placed in series with either or both inputs if they are subjected to the overvoltages. For more information on general overvoltage characteristics of amplifiers refer to the 1993 System Applications Guide, available from the Analog Devices Literature Center.
Output Voltage Phase Reversal
The overdrive recovery time of an operational amplifier is the time required for the output voltage to recover to its linear region from a saturated condition. This recovery time is important in applications where the amplifier must recover quickly after a large transient event, such as a comparator. The circuit shown in Figure 58 was used to evaluate the OP191 family’s overload recovery time. The OP191 family takes approximately 8 µs to recover from positive saturation and approximately 6.5 µs to recover from negative saturation.

APPLICATIONS Single +3 V Supply, Instrumentation Amplifier Single Supply RTD Amplifier
The OP291’s low supply current and low voltage operation make it ideal for battery powered applications such as the instrumentation amplifier shown in Figure 59. The circuit utilizes the classic two op amp instrumentation amplifier topology, with four resistors to set the gain. The equation is simply that of a noninverting amplifier as shown in the figure. The two resistors labeled R1 should be closely matched to each other as well as both resistors labeled R2 to ensure good common-mode rejection performance. Resistor networks ensure the closest matching as well as matched drifts for good temperature stability. Capacitor C1 is included to limit the bandwidth and, therefore, the noise in sensitive applications. The value of this capacitor should be adjusted depending on the desired closed-loop bandwidth of the instrumentation amplifier. The RC combination creates a pole at a frequency equal to 1/(2 π × R1C1). If AC-CMRR is critical, than a matched capacitor to C1 should be included across the second resistor labeled R1.

The circuit in Figure 60 uses three op amps of the OP491 to develop a bridge configuration for an RTD amplifier that operates from a single +5 V supply. The circuit takes advantage of the OP491’s wide output swing range to generate a high bridge excitation voltage of 3.9 V. In fact, because of the railto-rail output swing, this circuit will work with supplies as low as 4.0 V. Amplifier A1 servos the bridge to create a constant excitation current in conjunction with the AD589, a 1.235 V precision reference. The op amp maintains the reference voltage across the parallel combination of the 6.19 kΩ and 2.55 MΩ resistor, which generates a 200 µA current source. This current splits evenly and flows through both halves of the bridge. Thus, 100 µA flows through the RTD to generate an output voltage based on its resistance. A 3-wire RTD is used to balance the line resistance in both 100 Ω legs of the bridge to improve accuracy.

Because the OP291 accepts rail-to-rail inputs, the input common-mode range includes both ground and the positive supply of 3 V. Furthermore, the rail-to-rail output range ensures the widest signal range possible and maximizes the dynamic range of the system. Also, with its low supply current of 300 µA/device, this circuit consumes a quiescent current of only 600 µA, yet still exhibits a gain bandwidth of 3 MHz. A question may arise about other instrumentation amplifier topologies for single supply applications. For example, a variation on this topology adds a fifth resistor between the two inverting inputs of the op amps for gain setting. While that topology works well in dual supply applications, it is inherently not appropriate for single supply circuits. The same could be said for the traditional three op amp instrumentation amplifier. In both cases, the circuits simply will not work in single supply situations unless a false ground between the supplies is created.

Amplifiers A2 and A3 are configured in the two op amp IA discussed above. Their resistors are chosen to produce a gain of 274, such that each 1°C increase in temperature results in a 10 mV change in the output voltage, for ease of measurement. A 0.01 µF capacitor is included in parallel with the 100 kΩ resistor on amplifier A3 to filter out any unwanted noise from this high gain circuit. This particular RC combination creates a pole at 1.6 kHz.

A +2.5 V Reference from a +3 V Supply
In many single-supply applications, the need for a 2.5 V reference often arises. Many commercially available monolithic 2.5 V references require at least a minimum operating supply voltage of 4 V. The problem is exacerbated when the minimum operating system supply voltage is + 3 V. The circuit illustrated in Figure 61 is an example of a +2.5 V that operates from a single +3 V supply. The circuit takes advantage of the OP291’s rail-to-rail input and output voltage ranges to amplify an AD589’s 1.235 V output to +2.5 V. The OP291’s low TCVOS of 1 µV/°C helps to maintain an output voltage temperature coefficient of less than 200 ppm/°C. The circuit’s overall temperature coefficient is dominated by R2 and R3’s temperature coefficient. Lower tempco resistors are recommended. The entire circuit draws less than 420 µA from a +3 V supply at +25°C.

The OP291 serves two functions. First, it is required to buffer the high output impedance of the DAC’s VREF pin, which is on the order of 10 kΩ. The op amp provides a low impedance output to drive any following circuitry. Secondly, the op amp amplifies the output signal to provide a rail-to-rail output swing. In this particular case, the gain is set to 4.1 to generate a 5.0 V output when the DAC is at full scale. If other output voltage ranges are needed, such as 0 to 4.095, the gain can easily be adjusted by altering the value of the resistors.

In the design of power supply control circuits, a great deal of design effort is focused on ensuring a pass transistor’s long-term reliability over a wide range of load current conditions. As a result, monitoring and limiting device power dissipation is of prime importance in these designs. The circuit illustrated in Figure 63 is an example of a +5 V, single-supply high side current monitor that can be incorporated into the design of a voltage regulator with fold-back current limiting or a high current power supply with crowbar protection. This design uses an OP291’s rail-to-rail input voltage range to sense the voltage drop across a 0.1 Ω current shunt. A p-channel MOSFET used as the feedback element in the circuit converts the op amp’s differential input voltage into a current. This current is then applied to R2 to generate a voltage that is a linear representation of the load current. The transfer equation for the current monitor is given by:
R Monitor Output = R2 × SENSE × I L R1

The OP191 family is ideal for use with a CMOS DAC to generate a digitally controlled voltage with a wide output range. Figure 62 shows the DAC8043 used in conjunction with the AD589 to generate a voltage output from 0 V to 1.23 V The DAC is actually operated in “voltage switching” mode where the reference is connected to the current output, IOUT, and the output voltage is taken from the VREF pin. This topology is inherently noninverting as opposed to the classic current output mode, which is inverting and, therefore, unsuitable for single supply.

The OP291’s low supply operation makes it ideal for +3 V battery powered applications such as the thermocouple amplifier shown in Figure 64. The K-type thermocouple terminates in an isothermal block where the junctions’ ambient temperature is continuously monitored using a simple 1N914 diode. The diode corrects the thermal EMF generated in the junctions by feeding a small voltage, scaled by the 1.5 MΩ and 475 Ω resistors, to the op amp. To calibrate this circuit, immerse the thermocouple measuring junction in a 0°C ice bath, and adjust the 500 Ω pot to zero volts out. Next, immerse the thermocouple in a 250°C temperature bath or oven and adjust the Scale Adjust pot for an output voltage of 2.50 V. Within this temperature range, the K-type thermocouple is accurate to within ± 3°C without linearization.

Amplifier A1 is the receiving amplifier, and amplifiers A2 and A3 are the transmitters. The forth amplifier, A4, generates a pseudo ground half way between the supply voltage and ground. This pseudo ground is needed for the ac coupled bipolar input signals.
The transmit signal, TXA, is inverted by A2 and then reinverted by A3 to provide a differential drive to the transformer, where each amplifier supplies half the drive signal. This is needed because of the smaller swings associated with a single supply as opposed to a dual supply. Amplifier A1 provides some gain for the received signal, and it also removes the transmit signal present at the transformer from the receive signal. To do this, the drive signal from A2 is also fed to the noninverting input of A1 to cancel the transmit signal from the transformer. The OP491’s bandwidth of 3 MHz and rail-to-rail output swings ensures that it can provide the largest possible drive to the transformer at the frequency of transmission.

A +3 V, 50 Hz/60 Hz Active Notch Filter with False Ground Single-Supply Half-Wave and Full-Wave Rectifiers
To process ac signals in a single-supply system, it is often best to use a false-ground biasing scheme. A circuit that uses this approach is illustrated in Figure 66. In this circuit, a falseground circuit biases an active notch filter used to reject 50 Hz/ 60 Hz power line interference in portable patient monitoring equipment. Notch filters are quite commonly used to reject power line frequency interference which often obscures low frequency physiological signals, such as heart rates, blood pressure readings, EEGs, EKGs, etcetera. This notch filter effectively squelches 60 Hz pickup at a filter Q of 0.75. Substituting 3.16 kΩ resistors for the 2.67 kΩ resistors in the twin-T section (R1 through R5) configures the active filter to reject 50 Hz interference.
