XL7650-8, XD7650-8,XD7650-14
2MHz, Super Chopper-Stabilized Operational Amplifier
1. DESCRIPTION
The XL7650-8, XD7650-8 and XD7650-14 are Super Chopper-Stabilized Amplifier offers
exceptionally low input offset voltage and are extremely stable with respect to time and
temperature. It is a direct replacement for the industry-standard XL7650 offering improved
input offset voltage, lower input offset voltage temperature coefficient, reduced input bias
current, and wider common mode voltage range. All improvements are highlighted in bold
italics in the Electrical Characteristics section. Critical parameters are guaranteed over the
entire commercial temperature range.
The chopper amplifier achieves its low offset by comparing the inverting and non-inverting
input voltages in a nulling amplifier, nulled by alternate clock phases. Two external capacitors
are required to store the correcting potentials on the two amplifier nulling inputs; these are
the only external components necessary.
The clock oscillator and all the other control circuitry is entirely self-contained. However the
14 lead version includes a provision for the use of an external clock, if required for a particular
application. In addition, the XL7650-8, XD7650-8 and XD7650-14 are internally compensated
for unity-gain operation.

3. TYPICAL APPLICATION
AMPLIFIER
The functional diagram shows the major elements of the XL7650. There are two amplifiers, the main
amplifier, and the nulling amplifier. Both have offset-null capability. The main amplifier is connected
continuously from the input to the output, while the nulling amplifier, under the control of the
chopping oscillator and clock circuit, alternately nulls itself and the main amplifier. The nulling
connections, which are MOSFET gates, are inherently high impedance, and two external capacitors
provide the required storage of the nulling potentials and the necessary nulling-loop time constants.
The nulling arrangement operates over the full common-mode and power-supply ranges, and is also
independent of the output level, thus giving exceptionally high CMRR, PSRR, and AVOL.
Careful balancing of the input switches, and the inherent balance of the input circuit, minimizes
chopper frequency charge injection at the input terminals, and also the feed forward-type injection
into the compensation capacitor, which is the main cause of output spikes in this type of circuit.
INTERMODULATION
Previous chopper-stabilized amplifiers have suffered from intermodulation effects between the
chopper frequency and input signals. These arise because the finite AC gain of the amplifier
necessitates a small AC signal at the input. This is seen by the zeroing circuit as an error signal,
which is chopped and fed back, thus injecting sum and difference frequencies and causing
disturbances to the gain and phase vs frequency characteristics near the chopping frequency.
These effects are substantially reduced in the XL7650 by feeding the nulling circuit with a dynamic
current, corresponding to the compensation capacitor current, in such a way as to cancel that
portion of the input signal due to finite AC gain. Since that is the major error contribution to the
XL7650, the intermodulation and gain/phase disturbances are held to very low values, and can
generally be ignored.
CAPACITOR CONNECTION
The OUTPUT CLAMP pin allows reduction of the overload recovery time inherent with chopperstabilized amplifiers. When tied to the inverting input pin, or summing junction, a current path
between this point and the OUTPUT pin occurs just before the device output saturates. Thus
uncontrolled input differentials are avoided, together with the consequent charge buildup on the
correction-storage capacitors. The output swing is slightly reduced.

CLOCK
The XL7650 has an internal oscillator, giving a chopping frequency of 200Hz, available at the CLOCK
OUT pin on the 14 pin devices. Provision has also been made for the use of an external clock in these
parts.The INT/EXT pin has an internal pull-up and may be left open for normal operation, but to utilize
an external clock this pin must be tied to V- to disable the internal clock. The external clock signal may
then be applied to the EXT CLOCK IN pin. An internal divide-by-two provides the desired 50% input
switching duty cycle. Since the capacitors are charged only when EXT CLOCK IN is high, a 50% to 80%
positive duty cycle is recommended, especially for higher frequencies. The external clock can swing
between V+ and V-. The logic threshold will be at about 2.5V below V+. Note also that a signal of
about 400 Hz, with a 70% duty cycle, will be present at the EXT CLOCK IN pin with INT/EXT high or
open. This is the internal clock signal before being fed to the divider.
In those applications where a strobe signal is available, an alternate approach to avoid capacitor
misbalancing during overload can be used. If a strobe signal is connected to EXT CLK IN so that it is
low during the time that the overload signal is applied to the amplifier, neither capacitor will be
charged. Since the leakage at the capacitor pins is quite low at room temperature, the typical
amplifier will drift less than 10V/s, and relatively long measurements can be made with little
change in offset.
COMPONENT SELECTION
The two required capacitors, CEXTA and CEXTB, have optimum values depending on the clock or
chopping frequency. For the preset internal clock, the correct value is 0.1F, and to maintain the
same relationship between the chopping frequency and the nulling time constant this value should
be scaled approximately in proportion if an external clock is used. A high quality film type capacitor
such as mylar is preferred, although a ceramic or other lower-grade capacitor may prove suitable in
many applications. For quickest settling on initial turn-on, low dielectric absorption capacitors
(such as polypropylene) should be used. With ceramic capacitors, several seconds may be required
to settle to 1V.
STATIC PROTECTION
All device pins are static-protected by the use of input diodes. However, strong static fields and
discharges should be avoided, as they can cause degraded diode junction characteristics, which
may result in increased input-leakage currents.
LATCHUP AVOIDANCE
Junction-isolated CMOS circuits inherently include a parasitic 4-layer (PNPN) structure which has
characteristics similar to an SCR. Under certain circumstances this junction may be triggered into a
low-impedance state, resulting in excessive supply current. To avoid this condition, no voltage
greater than 0.3V beyond the supply rails should be applied to any pin. In general, the amplifier
supplies must be established either at the same time or before any input signals are applied. If this
is not possible, the drive circuits must limit input current flow to under 1mA to avoid latchup, even
under fault conditions.

OUTPUT STAGE/LOAD DRIVING
The output circuit is a high-impedance type (approximately 18k), and therefore with loads less than
this value, the chopper amplifier behaves in some ways like a transconductance amplifier whose
open-loop gain is proportional to load resistance. For example, the open-loop gain will be 17dB
lower with a 1k load than with a 10k load. If the amplifier is used strictly for DC, this lower gain is of
little consequence, since the DC gain is typically greater than 120dB even with a 1k load. However,
for wideband applications, the best frequency response will be achieved with a load resistor of 10k
or higher. This will result in a smooth 6dB/octave response from 0.1Hz to 2MHz, with phase shifts
of less than 10° in the transition region where the main amplifier takes over from the null amplifier.
THERMO-ELECTRIC EFFECTS
The ultimate limitations to ultra-high precision DC amplifiers are the thermo-electric or Peltier
effects arising in thermocouple junctions of dissimilar metals, alloys, silicon, etc. Unless all
junctions are at the same temperature, thermoelectric voltages typically around 0.1 V/°C, but up to
tens of mV/°C for some materials, will be generated. In order to realize the extremely low offset
voltages that the chopper amplifier can provide, it is essential to take special precautions to avoid
temperature gradients. All components should be enclosed to eliminate air movement, especially
that caused by power-dissipating elements in the system. Low thermoelectric-efficient connections
should be used where possible and power supply voltages and power dissipation should be kept to
a minimum. High-impedance loads are preferable, and good separation from surrounding heatdissipating elements is advisable.
GUARDING
Extra care must be taken in the assembly of printed circuit boards to take full advantage of the low
input currents of the XL7650. Boards must be thoroughly cleaned with TCE or alcohol and blown
dry with compressed air. After cleaning, the boards should be coated with epoxy or silicone rubber
to prevent contamination.
Even with properly cleaned and coated boards, leakage currents may cause trouble, particularly
since the input pins are adjacent to pins that are at supply potentials. This leakage can be
significantly reduced by using guarding to lower the voltage difference between the inputs and
adjacent metal runs. The guard, which is a conductive ring surrounding the inputs, is connected to
a low impedance point that is at approximately the same voltage as the inputs. Leakage currents
from high-voltage pins are then absorbed by the guard.

Clearly the applications of the XL7650 will mirror those of other op amps. Anywhere that the
performance of a circuit can be significantly improved by a reduction of input-offset voltage and
bias current, the XL7650 is the logical choice. Basic non-inverting and inverting amplifier circuits are
shown in Figures 2 and 3. Both circuits can use the output clamping circuit to enhance the overload
recovery performance. The only limitations on the replacement of other op amps by the XL7650
are the supply voltage (8V Max) and the output drive capability (10k load for full swing). Even these
limitations can be overcome using a simple booster circuit, as shown in Figure 4, to enable the full
output capabilities of the LM741 (or any other standard device) to be combined with the input
capabilities of the XL7650. The pair form a composite device, so loop gain stability, when the
feedback network is added, should be watched carefully.

Figure 5 shows the use of the clamp circuit to advantage in a zero-offset comparator. The usual
problems in using a chopper stabilized amplifier in this application are avoided, since the clamp
circuit forces the inverting input to follow the input signal. The threshold input must tolerate the
output clamp current VlN/R without disturbing other portions of the system.
The pin configuration of the 14 pin dual in-line package is designed to facilitate guarding, since the
pins adjacent to the inputs are not used (this is different from the standard 741 and 101A pin
configuration, but corresponds to that of the LM108).
NOTE: R1||R2 indicates the parallel combination of R1 and R2.
