PCMCIA Cards
With only 0.6-mA supply current, the 4-MHz gainbandwidth of this device supports new portable
applications
where
higher
power
devices
unacceptably drain battery life.
The LM7301 can be driven by voltages that exceed
both power supply rails, thus eliminating concerns
over exceeding the common-mode voltage range.
The rail-to-rail output swing capability provides the
maximum possible dynamic range at the output. This
is particularly important when operating on low supply
voltages.
Operating on supplies of 1.8 V to 32 V, the LM7301 is
excellent for a very wide range of applications in low
power systems.
Placing the amplifier right at the signal source
reduces board size and simplifies signal routing. The
LM7301 fits easily on low profile PCMCIA cards.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
Applies to both single-supply and split-supply operation. Continuous short-circuit operation at elevated ambient temperature can result in
exceeding the maximum allowed junction temperature of 150°C.
The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(MAX), RθJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient
temperature is PD = (TJ(MAX) − TA)/RθJA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board.

Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for
which the device is intended to be functional, but specific performance is not ensured. For ensured specifications and the test
conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(MAX), RθJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient
temperature is PD = (TJ(MAX) − TA)/RθJA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
Low supply current, wide bandwidth, input common mode voltage range that includes both rails, rail-to-rail
output, good capacitive load driving ability, wide supply voltage (1.8 V to 32 V), and low distortion all make the
LM7301 ideal for many diverse applications.
The high common-mode rejection ratio and full rail-to-rail input range provides precision performance when
operated in noninverting applications where the common-mode error is added directly to the other system errors.
7.2 Feature Description
7.2.1 Capacitive Load Driving
The LM7301 has the ability to drive large capacitive loads. For example, 1000 pF only reduces the phase margin
to about 25°.
7.2.2 Transient Response
The LM7301 offers a very clean, well-behaved transient response. Figure 19, Figure 20, Figure 22, and
Figure 23 show the response when operated at gains of +1 and −1 when handling both small and large signals.
The large phase margin, typically 70° to 80°, assures clean and symmetrical response. In the large signal scope
photos, Figure 19 and Figure 22, the input signal is set to 4.8 V. The output goes to within 100 mV of the
supplies cleanly and without overshoot. In the small signal samples, the response is clean, with only slight
overshoot when used as a follower. Figure 21 and Figure 24 are the circuits used to make these photos.

7.2.3 Wide Supply Range
The high power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) and common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) provide precision
performance when operated on battery or other unregulated supplies. This advantage is further enhanced by the
very wide supply range (2.2 V to 30 V, ensured) offered by the LM7301. In situations where highly variable or
unregulated supplies are present, the excellent PSRR and wide supply range of the LM7301 benefit the system
designer with continued precision performance, even in such adverse supply conditions.
7.2.4 Specific Advantages of 5-Pin SOT-23 (TinyPak)
The obvious advantage of the 5-pin SOT-23, TinyPak, is that it can save board space, a critical aspect of any
portable or miniaturized system design. The need to decrease overall system size is inherent in any handheld,
portable, or lightweight system application.
Furthermore, the low profile can help in height limited designs, such as consumer hand-held remote controls,
sub-notebook computers, and PCMCIA cards.
An additional advantage of the tiny package is that it allows better system performance due to ease of package
placement. Because the tiny package is so small, it can fit on the board right where the operational amplifier
must be placed for optimal performance, unconstrained by the usual space limitations. This optimal placement of
the tiny package allows for many system enhancements that are not easily achieved with the constraints of a
larger package. For example, problems such as system noise due to undesired pickup of digital signals can be
easily reduced or mitigated. This pickup problem is often caused by long wires in the board layout going to or
from an operational amplifier. By placing the tiny package closer to the signal source and allowing the LM7301
output to drive the long wire, the signal becomes less sensitive to such pickup. An overall reduction of system
noise results.
Often times system designers try to save space by using dual or quad op amps in their board layouts. This
causes a complicated board layout due to the requirement of routing several signals to and from the same place
on the board. Using the tiny operational amplifier eliminates this problem.
Additional space savings parts are available in tiny packages from Texas Instruments, including low-power
amplifiers, precision-voltage references, and voltage regulators.

Feature Description (continued)
7.2.5 Low-Distortion, High-Output Drive Capability
The LM7301 offers superior low-distortion performance, with a total-harmonic-distortion-plus-noise of 0.06% at f
= 10 kHz. The advantage offered by the LM7301 is its low distortion levels, even at high output current and low
load resistance. See Stability Considerations for methods used to ensure stability under all load conditions.
7.3 Device Functional Modes
7.3.1 Stability Considerations
Rail-to-rail output amplifiers like the LM7301 use the collector of the drive transistor(s) at the output pin, as
shown in Figure 25. This allows the load to be driven as close as possible towards either supply rail.

Figure 25. Simplified Output Stage Block Diagram
While this architecture maximizes the load voltage swing range, it increases the dependence of loop gain and
subsequently stability, on load impedance and DC load current, compared to a non-rail-to-rail architecture. Thus,
with this type of output stage, it is even more crucial to ensure stability by meticulous bench verification under all
load conditions, and to apply the necessary compensation or circuit modifications to overcome any instability, if
necessary. Any such bench verification should also include temperature, supply voltage, input common mode
and output bias point variations as well as capacitive loading.
For example, one set of conditions for which stability of the LM7301 amplifier may be compromised is when the
DC output load is larger than ±0.5 mA, with input and output biased to mid-rail. Under such conditions, it may be
possible to observe open-loop gain response peaking at a high frequency (for example, 200 MHz), which is
beyond the expected frequency range of the LM7301 (4 MHz GBW). Without taking any precautions against gain
peaking, it is possible to see increased settling time or even oscillations, especially with low closed loop gain and
/ or light AC loading. It is possible to reduce or eliminate this gain peaking by using external compensation
components. One possible scheme that can be applied to reduce or eliminate this gain peaking is shown in
Figure 26.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
The non-dissipating snubber, consisting of Rc and Cc, acts as AC load to reduce high-frequency gain peaking
with no DC loading so that total power dissipation is not increased. The increased AC load effectively reduces
loop gain at higher frequencies thereby reducing gain peaking due to the possible causes stated in the previous
sentence. For the particular set of Rc and Cc values shown in Figure 26, loop gain peaking is reduced by about
25 dB under worst case peaking conditions (I_source= 2mA DC at around 180 MHz) thus confining loop gain to
less than 0 dB and eliminating any possible instability. For best results, it may be necessary to tune the values of
Rc and Cc in a particular application to consider other subtleties and tolerances.
7.3.2 Power Dissipation
Although the LM7301 has internal output current limiting, shorting the output to ground when operating on a 30-V
power supply will cause the operational amplifier to dissipate about 350 mW. This is a worst-case example. In
the 8-pin SOIC package, this will cause a temperature rise of 42°C. In the 5-pin SOT-23 package, the higher
thermal resistance will cause a calculated rise of 59°C. This can raise the junction temperature to greater than
the absolute maximum temperature of 150°C.
Operating from split supplies greatly reduces the power dissipated when the output is shorted. Operating on
±15-V supplies can only cause a temperature rise of 21°C in the 8-pin SOIC and 30°C in the 5-pin SOT-23
package, assuming the short is to ground.

8 Applications and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
8.1.1 Handheld Remote Controls
The LM7301 offers outstanding specifications for applications requiring good speed/power trade-off. In
applications such as remote control operation, where high bandwidth and low power consumption are needed,
the LM7301 performance can easily meet these requirements.
8.1.2 Remote Microphone in Personal Computers
Remote microphones in Personal Computers often use a microphone at the top of the monitor which must drive
a long cable in a high noise environment. One method often used to reduce the nose is to lower the signal
impedance, which reduces the noise pickup. In this configuration, the amplifier usually requires 30 db to 40 db of
gain, at bandwidths higher than most low-power CMOS parts can achieve. The LM7301 offers the tiny package,
higher bandwidths, and greater output drive capability than other rail-to-rail input/output parts can provide for this
application.
8.1.3 Optical Line Isolation for Modems
The combination of the low distortion and good load driving capabilities of the LM7301 make it an excellent
choice for driving opto-coupler circuits to achieve line isolation for modems. This technique prevents telephone
line noise from coupling onto the modem signal. Superior isolation is achieved by coupling the signal optically
from the computer modem to the telephone lines; however, this also requires a low distortion at relatively high
currents. Due to its low distortion at high-output drive currents, the LM7301 fulfills this need, in this and in other
telecom applications. See Stability Considerations for methods used to ensure stability under all load conditions.
8.2 Typical Applications
The circuit shown in Figure 27 uses the wide supply voltage range (1.8 V to 32 V), rail-to-rail input and output
voltage capability, and the unity gain stability of the LM7301 to sense the current flow from the power supply to a
load, such as a battery being charged, or any other load. The circuit creates a ground-referenced output voltage,
which varies linearly with the load current, for easy interface to the rest of the circuitry to create fault-protection,
current and power metering, or current regulation functions.

Typical Applications (continued)
8.2.1 Design Requirements
The output port is designed for easy interface; it is ground-referenced and it produces 0 V with 0 A of load
current. A typical stage that follows this stage, an ADC which samples the load current for example, is easily
connected to the Q1 collector with no level shifting or additional biasing required.
Apart from a wide supply voltage capability, the operational amplifier used in Figure 27 must have an input
voltage range that includes the V+ rail voltage to allow high side current sensing. Furthermore, it should be unity
gain stable and have an output voltage range which is less than one Vbe from V+. The LM7301 has all these
requirements.
8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Selecting RSENSE
Pick the value of RSENSE low enough to minimize its heat / voltage loss while observing Equation 1 for minimum
detectable load current, ICHARGE_MIN , and device offset voltage, VOS:
VOS
RSENSE >
ICHARGE_MIN
(1)
With the schematic values shown and LM7301's VOS limit of 6 mV:
ICHARGE _ MIN > 30 mA
(2)
If the system has the ability to be initialized and corrected for initial readings, it may be possible to lower the
value of RSENSE.
8.2.2.2 Selecting R1, and R3 Values
Pick the R3 / R1 ratio to get the proper full-scale VOUT when the maximum load current, ICHARGE_MAX, flows:
VOUT
R3
=
R1 RSENSE ´ ICHARGE _ MAX
(3)
For example, to get 3-V output with 3 A of load current when RSENSE = 0.2 Ω results in:
R3
=5
R1
(4)
Ensure that the resulting transfer function also satisfies the application’s need when the minimum load current,
ICHARGE_MIN is being sensed. In this example, the minimum output voltage will be 30 mV (when ICHARGE_MIN = 30
mA).
With the R3/R1 ratio determined, pick the value of R3 for Q1 collector current less than 1 mA at the maximum
VOUT, and determine R1 from that.
8.2.2.3 R1, R2 Selection
Normally, R2 is set equal to R1 to cancel out the error term due to the input bias current, IB (approximately 200
nA for the LM7301).
8.2.2.4 Error Terms Expressions
Here are the expressions for the output change caused by various parameter shifts, evaluated for Figure 27
values with ICHARGE_MAX= 3 A:

8.2.2.5 Frequency Response
Depending on the application, it may be useful to have the means to control the upper end of the circuit’s
frequency response. An example is limiting the circuit’s response to high-frequency load current spikes or
switching frequencies so that the circuit only reacts to DC or lower frequencies. Capacitor C1 in Figure 27 can be
used to accomplish just that. The original circuit has a –3-dB bandwidth close to 4.5 MHz which can be reduced
by increasing the value of C1, as shown in Figure 28.

8.2.3 Application Curves
Figure 29 shows the transfer function of the circuit for several values of RSENSE. Notice that with 1 Ω, the output
is limited to approximately 16 V because of the additional drop across the sense resistor at higher load currents.
Figure 30 shows the low-end of the load current is more non-linear for low RSENSE values, as noted in
Selecting RSENSE due to VOS. Higher RSENSE values help with this at the expense of a higher loss and voltage
drop.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The LM7301 is specified for operation from 1.8 V to 32 V (±0.9 V to ±16 V). Being a rail-to-rail input and output
device, any operating voltage conditions within the supply voltage range can be accommodated.
Place 0.1-μF bypass capacitors close to the power-supply pins to reduce errors coupling in from noisy or highimpedance power supplies.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
For best operational performance of the device, TI recommends good printed-circuit board (PCB) layout
practices. Low-loss, 0.1-μF bypass capacitors should be connected between each supply pin and ground, placed
as close to the device as possible. A single bypass capacitor from V+ to ground is applicable to single supply
applications.
