APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO

Supply Voltage

The positive supply pin of the LT1782 should be bypassed

with a small capacitor (typically 0.1µF) within an inch of

the pin. When driving heavy loads, an additional 4.7µF

electrolytic capacitor should be used. When using split

supplies, the same is true for the negative supply pin.

The LT1782 is protected against reverse battery voltages

up to 18V. In the event a reverse battery condition occurs,

the supply current is typically less than 1nA.

Inputs

The LT1782 has two input stages, NPN and PNP (see the

Simplified Schematic), resulting in three distinct operat-

ing regions as shown in the Input Bias Current vs Common

Mode typical performance curve.

For input voltages about 0.8V or more below V+, the PNP

input stage is active and the input bias current is typically

–8nA. When the input common mode voltage is within

0.5V of the positive rail, the NPN stage is operating and the

input bias current is typically 15nA. Increases in tempera-

ture will cause the voltage at which operation switches

from the PNP input stage to the NPN input stage to move

towards V+. The input offset voltage of the NPN stage is

untrimmed and is typically 1.8mV.

A Schottky diode in the collector of the input NPN transis-

tors, along with special geometries for these NPN transis-

tors, allows the LT1782 to operate with either or both of its

inputs above V+. At about 0.3V above V+, the NPN input

transistor is fully saturated and the input bias current is

typically 4µA at room temperature. The input offset volt-

age is typically 1.8mV when operating above V+. The

LT1782 will operate with its inputs 18V above V – regard-

less of V+.

The inputs are protected against excursions as much as

10V below V – by an internal 6k resistor in series with each

input and a diode from the input to the negative supply.

The input stage of the LT1782 incorporates phase reversal

protection to prevent the output from phase reversing for

inputs up to 9V below V –. There are no clamping diodes

between the inputs and the maximum differential input

voltage is 18V.

Output

The output of the LT1782 can swing to within 60mV of the

positive rail with no load and within 3mV of the negative

rail with no load. When monitoring voltages within 60mV

of the positive rail or within 3mV of the negative rail, gain

should be taken to keep the output from clipping. The

LT1782 can sink and source over 30mA at ±5V supplies,

sourcing current is reduced to 10mA at 3V total supplies

as noted in the Electrical Characteristics.

The LT1782 is internally compensated to drive at least

600pF of capacitance under any output loading condi-

tions. A 0.22µF capacitor in series with a 150Ω resistor

between the output and ground will compensate these

amplifiers for larger capacitive loads, up to 10,000pF, at all

output currents.

Distortion

There are two main contributors to distortion in op amps:

output crossover distortion as the output transitions from

sourcing to sinking current, and distortion caused by

nonlinear common mode rejection. If the op amp is

operating inverting, there is no common mode induced

distortion. If the op amp is operating in the PNP input stage

(input is not within 0.8V of V+), the CMRR is very good,
