LM7121 235 MHz Tiny Low Power Voltage Feedback Amplifier

LM7121 235 MHz Tiny Low Power Voltage Feedback Amplifier
General Description
The LM7121 is a high performance operational amplifier which addresses the increasing AC performance needs of video and imaging applications, and the size and power constraints of portable applications. The LM7121 can operate over a wide dynamic range of supply voltages, from 5V (single supply) up to ± 15V (see the Application Information section for more details). It offers an excellent speed-power product delivering 1300V/µs and 235 MHz Bandwidth (−3 dB, AV = +1). Another key feature of this operational amplifier is stability while driving unlimited capacitive loads. Due to its Tiny SOT23-5 package, the LM7121 is ideal for designs where space and weight are the critical parameters. The benefits of the Tiny package are evident in small portable electronic devices, such as cameras, and PC video cards. Tiny amplifiers are so small that they can be placed anywhere on a board close to the signal source or near the input to an A/D converter.

Note 1: 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 guaranteed. For guaranteed specifications and the test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. Note 2: Human body model, 1.5 kΩ in series with 100 pF. Note 3: 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. Note 4: The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max)–TA)/θJA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board. Note 5: Typical Values represent the most likely parametric norm. Note 6: All limits are guaranteed by testing or statistical analysis. Note 7: Differential input voltage is measured at VS = ± 15V. Note 8: Slew rate is the average of the rising and fallng slew rates. Note 9: Unity gain operation for ± 5V and ± 15V supplies is with a feedback network of 510Ω and 3 pF in parallel (see the Application Information section). For +5V single supply operation, feedback is a direct short from the output to the inverting input. Note 10: AV = +2 operation with 2 kΩ resistors and 2 pF capacitor from summing node to ground.

Application Information
The table below, depicts the maximum operating supply voltage for each package type: TABLE 1. Maximum Supply Voltage Values SOT23-5 Single Supply Dual Supplies 10V SO-8 30V In determining maximum operable temperature of the device, make sure the total power dissipation of the device is considered; this includes the power dissipated in the device with a load connected to the output as well as the nominal dissipation of the op amp. The device is capable of tolerating momentary short circits from its output to ground but prolonged operation in this mode will damage the device, if the maximum allowed junction temperation is exceeded. APPLICATION CIRCUITS Current Boost Circuit The circuit in Figure 2 can be used to achieve good linearity along with high output current capability.
± 5V
± 15V
Stable unity gain operation is possible with supply voltage of 5V for all capacitive loads. This allows the possibility of using the device in portable applications with low supply voltages with minimum components around it. Above a supply voltage of 6V ( ± 3V Dual supplies), an additional resistor and capacitor (shown below) should be placed in the feedback path to achieve stability at unity gain over the full temperature range.
DS012348-92 DS012348-87
FIGURE 1. Typical Circuit for AV = +1 Operation (VS ≥ 6V) The package power dissipation should be taken into account when operating at high ambient temperatures and/or high power dissipative conditions. Refer to the power derating curves in the data sheet for each type of package.
FIGURE 2. Simple Circuit to Improve Linearity and Output Drive Current By proper choice of R3, the LM7121 output can be set to supply a minimal amount of current, thereby improving its output linearity. R3 can be adjusted to allow for different loads: R3 = 0.1 RL The circuit above has been set for a load of 100Ω. Reasonable speeds ( < 30 ns rise and fall times) can be expected up to 120 mAPP of load current (see Figure 3 for step response across the load).

FIGURE 3. Waveform across a 100Ω Load It is very important to keep the lead lengths to a minimum and to provide a low impedance current path by using a ground-plane on the board. Caution: If RL is removed, the current balance at the output of LM7121 would be disturbed and it would have to supply the full amount of load current. This might damage the part if power dissipation limit is exceeded. Color Video on Twisted Pairs Using Single Supply The circuit shown in Figure 4 can be used to drive in excess of 25 meters length of twisted pair cable with no loss of resolution or picture definition when driving a NTSC monitor at the load end.

FIGURE 4. Single Supply Differential Twister Pair Cable Transmitter/Receiver 8.5V ≤ VCC ≤ 30V Differential Gain and Differential Phase errors measured at the load are less than 1% and 1˚ respectively. RG and CC can be adjusted for various cable lengths to compensate for the line losses and for proper response at the output. Values shown correspond to a twisted pair cable length of 25 meters with about 3 turns/inch (see Figure 5 for step response). The supply voltage can vary from 8.5V up to 30V with the output rise and fall times under 12 ns. With the component values shown, the overall gain from the input to the output is about 1. Even though the transmission line is not terminated in its nominal characteristic impedance of about 600Ω, the resulting reflection at the load is only about 5% of the total signal and in most cases can be neglected. Using 75Ω termination instead, has the advantage of operating at a low impedance and results in a higher realizable bandwidth and signal fidelity.
