GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD825 is a superbly optimized operational amplifier for high speed, low cost, and dc parameters, making it ideally suited for a broad range of signal conditioning and data acquisition applications. The ac performance, gain, bandwidth, slew rate, and drive capability are all very stable over temperature. The AD825 also maintains stable gain under varying load conditions. The unique input stage has ultralow input bias current and input current noise. Signals that go to either rail on this high performance input do not cause phase reversals at the output. These features make the AD825 a good choice as a buffer for MUX outputs, creating minimal offset and gain errors. The AD825 is fully specified for operation with dual 5 V and 15 V supplies. This power supply flexibility, and the low supply current of 6.5 mA with excellent ac characteristics under all supply conditions, makes the AD825 well-suited for many demanding applications.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

5V INPUT 500ns

The capacitor, CF, in the output stage, enables the AD825 to drive heavy capacitive loads. For light loads, the gain of the output buffer is close to unity, CF is bootstrapped, and not much happens. As the capacitive load is increased, the gain of the output buffer is decreased and the bandwidth of the amplifier is reduced through a portion of CF adding to the dominant pole. As the capacitive load is further increased, the amplifiers bandwidth continues to drop, maintaining the stability of the AD825.

INPUT CONSIDERATION
The AD825 with its unique input stage ensures no phase reversal for signals as large as or even larger than the supply voltages. Also, layout considerations of the input transistors ensure functionality even with a large differential signal. The need for a low noise input stage calls for a larger FET transistor. One should consider the additional capacitance that is added to ensure stability. When filters are designed with the AD825, one needs to consider the input capacitance (5 pF to 6 pF) of the AD825 as part of the passive network.

Figure 31. Inverting Amplifier Pulse Response While Driving a 400 pF Capacitive Load

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD825 is a low cost, wideband, high performance FET input operational amplifier. With its unique input stage design, the AD825 ensures no phase reversal, even for inputs that exceed the power supply voltages, and its output stage is designed to drive heavy capacitive or resistive loads with small changes relative to no load conditions. The AD825 (Figure 32) consists of common-drain, commonbase FET input stage driving a cascoded, common-base matched NPN gain stage. The output buffer stage uses emitter followers in a Class AB amplifier that can deliver large current to the load while maintaining low levels of distortion.

GROUNDING AND BYPASSING

The AD825 is a low input bias current FET amplifier. Its high frequency response makes it useful in applications, such as photodiode interfaces, filters, and audio circuits. When designing high frequency circuits, some special precautions are in order. Circuits must be built with short interconnects, and resistances should have low inductive paths to ground. Power supply leads should be bypassed to common as close as possible to the amplifier pins. Ceramic capacitors of 0.1 F are recommended.

AD825
SECOND-ORDER LOW-PASS FILTER
A second-order Butterworth low-pass filter can be implemented using the AD825 as shown in Figure 33. The extremely low bias currents of the AD825 allow the use of large resistor values and, consequently, small capacitor values without concern for developing large offset errors. Low current noise is another factor in permitting the use of large resistors without having to worry about the resultant voltage noise. With the values shown, the corner frequency will be 1 MHz. The equations for component selection are shown below. Note that the noninverting input (and the inverting input) has an input capacitance of 6 pF. As a result, the calculated value of C1 (12 pF) is reduced to 6 pF.
