The LT®1795 is a dual current feedback amplifier with high
output current and excellent large signal characteristics.
The combination of high slew rate, 500mA output drive
and up to ±15V operation enables the device to deliver
significant power at frequencies in the 1MHz to 2MHz
range. Short-circuit protection and thermal shutdown
insure the device’s ruggedness. The LT1795 is stable with
large capacitive loads and can easily supply the large
currents required by the capacitive loading. A shutdown
feature switches the device into a high impedance, low
current mode, reducing power dissipation when the device is not in use. For lower bandwidth applications, the
supply current can be reduced with a single external
resistor.

operated on supplies greater than ±10V.

0°C to 70°C and is designed, characterized and expected to meet these
extended temperature limits, but is not tested at – 40°C and 85°C. The

Note 4: Thermal resistance varies depending upon the amount of PC board
metal attached to the device. If the maximum dissipation of the package is
exceeded, the device will go into thermal shutdown and be protected.
Note 5: Guaranteed by the CMRR tests.
Note 6: RSHDN is connected between the SHDN pin and V +.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The LT1795 is a dual current feedback amplifier with high
output current drive capability. The amplifier is designed
to drive low impedance loads such as twisted-pair transmission lines with excellent linearity.
When VSHDN = VSHDNREF, the device is shut down. The
device will interface directly with 3V or 5V CMOS logic
when SHDNREF is grounded and the control signal is
applied to the SHDN pin. Switching time between the
active and shutdown states is about 1.5µs.
SHUTDOWN/CURRENT SET
Figures 1 to 4 illustrate how the SHDN and SHDNREF pins
can be used to reduce the amplifier quiescent current. In
both cases, an external resistor is used to set the current.
The two approaches are equivalent, however the required
resistor values are different. The quiescent current will be
approximately 115 times the current in the SHDN pin and
230 times the current in the SHDNREF pin. The voltage
across the resistor in either condition is V + – 1.5V. For
example, a 50k resistor between V + and SHDN will set the
If the shutdown/current set feature is not used, connect
SHDN to V + and SHDNREF to ground.
The SHDN and SHDNREF pins control the biasing of the
two amplifiers. The pins can be used to either turn off the
amplifiers completely, reducing the quiescent current to
less then 200µA, or to control the quiescent current in
normal operation.

THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
The LT1795 contains a thermal shutdown feature that
protects against excessive internal (junction) temperature.
If the junction temperature of the device exceeds the
protection threshold, the device will begin cycling between
normal operation and an off state. The cycling is not
harmful to the part. The thermal cycling occurs at a slow
rate, typically 10ms to several seconds, which depends on
the power dissipation and the thermal time constants of the
package and heat sinking. Raising the ambient tempera1795fa

ture until the device begins thermal shutdown gives a
good indication of how much margin there is in the
thermal design.
For surface mount devices, heat sinking is accomplished
by using the heat spreading capabilities of the PC board
and its copper traces. For the TSSOP package, power is
dissipated through the exposed heatsink. For the SO
package, power is dissipated from the package primarily
through the V – pins (4 to 7 and 14 to 17). These pins
should have a good thermal connection to a copper plane,
either by direct contact or by plated through holes. The
copper plane may be an internal or external layer. The
thermal resistance, junction-to-ambient will depend on
the total copper area connected to the device. For example,
the thermal resistance of the LT1795 connected to a 2 × 2
inch, double sided 2 oz copper plane is 40°C/W.
ing 0.5A current peaks into the load, a 1Ω power supply
impedance will cause a droop of 0.5V, reducing the
available output swing by that amount. Surface mount
tantalum and ceramic capacitors make excellent low ESR
bypass elements when placed close to the chip. For
frequencies above 100kHz, use 1µF and 100nF ceramic
capacitors. If significant power must be delivered below
100kHz, capacitive reactance becomes the limiting factor.
Larger ceramic or tantalum capacitors, such as 4.7µF, are
recommended in place of the 1µF unit mentioned above.
Inadequate bypassing is evidenced by reduced output
swing and “distorted” clipping effects when the output is
driven to the rails. If this is observed, check the supply pins
of the device for ripple directly related to the output
waveform. Significant supply modulation indicates poor
bypassing.
CALCULATING JUNCTION TEMPERATURE
Capacitance on the Inverting Input
The junction temperature can be calculated from the
equation:
Current feedback amplifiers require resistive feedback
from the output to the inverting input for stable operation.
Take care to minimize the stray capacitance between the
output and the inverting input. Capacitance on the inverting input to ground will cause peaking in the frequency
response (and overshoot in the transient response), but it
does not degrade the stability of the amplifier.
TJ = (PD)(θJA) + TA
where
TJ = Junction Temperature
TA = Ambient Temperature
PD = Device Dissipation
θJA = Thermal Resistance (Junction-to-Ambient)
Differential Input Signal Swing
The differential input swing is limited to about ±5V by an
ESD protection device connected between the inputs. In
normal operation, the differential voltage between the
input pins is small, so this clamp has no effect. However,
in the shutdown mode, the differential swing can be the
same as the input swing. The clamp voltage will then set
the maximum allowable input voltage.
Feedback Resistor Selection
The optimum value for the feedback resistors is a function
of the operating conditions of the device, the load impedance and the desired flatness of response. The Typical AC
Performance tables give the values which result in less
than 1dB of peaking for various resistive loads and operating conditions. If this level of flatness is not required, a
higher bandwidth can be obtained by use of a lower
feedback resistor.
For resistive loads, the COMP pin should be left open (see
Capacitive Loads section).
Capacitive Loads
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
To obtain the maximum output and the minimum distortion from the LT1795, the power supply rails should be
well bypassed. For example, with the output stage supply-
The LT1795 includes an optional compensation network
for driving capacitive loads. This network eliminates most
of the output stage peaking associated with capacitive
loads, allowing the frequency response to be flattened.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Figure 9 shows the effect of the network on a 200pF load.
Without the optional compensation, there is a 6dB peak at
85MHz caused by the effect of the capacitance on the
output stage. Adding a 0.01µF bypass capacitor between
the output and the COMP pins connects the compensation

and greatly reduces the peaking. A lower value feedback
resistor can now be used, resulting in a response which is
flat to ±1dB to 45MHz. The network has the greatest effect
for CL in the range of 0pF to 1000pF.
Although the optional compensation works well with
capacitive loads, it simply reduces the bandwidth when it
is connected with resistive loads. For instance, with a 25Ω
load, the bandwidth drops from 48MHz to 32MHz when
the compensation is connected. Hence, the compensation
was made optional. To disconnect the optional compensation, leave the COMP pin open.
