RAIL-TO-RAIL PRECISION OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 is a monolithic precision operational amplifier intended primarily for a wide range of analog applications
in +5V single power supply and ±5V dual power supply systems as well
as +5V to +10V battery operated systems. All device characteristics are
specified for +5V single supply or ±2.5V dual supply systems. It is
manufactured with Advanced Linear Devices' enhanced ACMOS silicon
gate CMOS process and is available as a standard cell in ALD's ASIC
"Function-Specific" library.
• Linear mode operation with input voltages
300mV beyond supply rails
• Symmetrical complementary output drive
• Output voltages to within 2mV of power
supply rails
• High load capacitance capability -4000pF typical
• No frequency compensation required -unity gain stable
• Extremely low input bias currents -0.01pA typical
• Dual power supply ±2.5V to ±5.0V
• Single power supply +5V to +10V
• High voltage gain – typically 85V/mV
@ ±2.5V and 250V/mV @ ±5.0V
• Drive as low as 1KΩ load with 5mA
drive current
• Output short circuit protected
• Unity gain bandwidth of 1.5MHz
• Slew rate of 2.1V/µs
• Suitable for rugged, temperature-extreme
environments
The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 has an input stage that operates to
+300mV above and -300mV below the supply voltages with no adverse
effects and/or phase reversals. It has been developed specifically with
the 5V single supply or ±2.5V dual supply user in mind.
Several important characteristics of the device make many applications
easy to implement for these supply voltages. First, the operational
amplifier can operate with rail-to-rail input and output voltages. This
feature allows numerous analog serial stages to be implemented without
losing operating voltage margin. Second, the device was designed to
accommodate mixed applications where digital and analog circuits may
work off the same 5V power supply. Third, the output stage can drive up
to 400pF capacitive, and 1KΩ resistive loads in non-inverting unity gain
connection, and up to 4000pF at a gain of 5. These features, coupled with
extremely low input currents, high voltage gain, useful bandwidth of
1.5MHz, slew rate of 2.1V/µs, low power dissipation, low offset voltage
and temperature drift, make the ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 a truly
versatile, user friendly, operational amplifier.
On-chip offset voltage trimming allows the device to be used without
nulling in most applications. The device offers typical offset drift of less
than 5µV/°C which eliminates many trim or temperature compensation
circuits. For precision applications, the ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712
is designed to settle to 0.01% in 8µs. The unique characteristics at input
and output are modeled in an available macromodel. Additionally, robust
design and rigorous screening make this device especially suitable for
operation in temperature-extreme environments and rugged conditions.

Design & Operating Notes:
1. The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 CMOS operational amplifier uses
a 3 gain stage architecture and an improved frequency compensation
scheme to achieve large voltage gain, high output driving capability,
and better frequency stability. In a conventional CMOS operational
amplifier design, compensation is achieved with a pole splitting capacitor together with a nulling resistor. This method is, however, very bias
dependent and thus cannot accommodate the large range of supply
voltage operation as is required from a stand alone CMOS operational
amplifier. The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 is internally compensated for unity gain stability using a novel scheme that does not use a
nulling resistor. This scheme produces a clean single pole roll off in the
gain characteristics while providing for more than 70 degrees of phase
margin at the unity gain frequency. A unity gain buffer using the
ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 will typically drive 400pF of external
load capacitance without stability problems. In the inverting unity gain
configuration, it can drive up to 800pF of load capacitance. Compared
to other CMOS operational amplifiers, the ALD1712A/ALD1712B/
ALD1712 has shown itself to be more resistant to parasitic oscillations.
2. The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 has complementary p-channel
and n-channel input differential stages connected in parallel to accomplish rail to rail input common mode voltage range. This means that with
the ranges of common mode input voltage close to the power supplies,
one of the two differential stages is switched off internally. To maintain
compatibility with other operational amplifiers, this switching point has
been selected to be about 1.5V above the negative supply voltage.
Since offset voltage trimming on the ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712
is made when the input voltage is symmetrical to the supply voltages,
this internal switching does not affect a large variety of applications
such as an inverting amplifier or non-inverting amplifier with a gain
larger than 2.5 (5V operation), where the common mode voltage does
not make excursions below this switching point. The user should
however, be aware that this switching does take place if the operational
amplifier is connected as a unity gain buffer and should make provision
in his design to allow for input offset voltage variations.
3. The input bias and offset currents are essentially input protection diode
reverse bias leakage currents, and are typically less than 1pA at room
temperature. This low input bias current assures that the analog signal
from the source will not be distorted by input bias currents. Normally,
this extremely high input impedance of greater than 1012Ω would not be
a problem as the source impedance would limit the node impedance.
However, for applications where source impedance is very high, it may
be necessary to limit noise and hum pickup through proper shielding.
4. The output stage consists of class AB complementary output drivers,
capable of driving a low resistance load. The output voltage swing is
limited by the drain to source on-resistance of the output transistors as
determined by the bias circuitry, and the value of the load resistor.
When connected in the voltage follower configuration, the oscillation
resistant feature, combined with the rail to rail input and output feature,
makes an effective analog signal buffer for medium to high source
impedance sensors, transducers, and other circuit networks.
5. The ALD1712A/ALD1712B/ALD1712 operational amplifier has been
designed to provide full static discharge protection. Internally, the
design has been carefully implemented to minimize latch up. However,
care must be exercised when handling the device to avoid strong static
fields that may degrade a diode junction, causing increased input
leakage currents. In using the operational amplifier, the user is advised
to power up the circuit before, or simultaneously with, any input voltages
applied and to limit input voltages to not exceed 0.3V of the power
supply voltage levels.
