RC6302
PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
Applications Discussion
Capacitive Load
The RC6302 can drive a capacitive load from 10 to over 100
pF. In back terminated video applications, bandwidth will
only be limited by the RC time constants of the external out-
put components. A minimum 10 pF capacitive load is
required. When driving a 75Ω cable, place the 75Ω source
termination resistor as close to the amplifier output as
possible.
DC Accuracy
Since the RC6302 is a voltage-feedback amplifier, the invert-
ing and non-inverting inputs have similar impedances and
bias currents. To minimize offset voltage, match the source
resistances seen by inverting and non-inverting inputs.
Feedback Components
Because the RC6302 is a voltage-feedback amplifier, it facil-
itates using reactive (capacitive and inductive) feedback
components for implementing filters, integrators, sample/
hold circuits, etc. The feedback network and the parasitic
capacitance at the inverting (summing junction) input create
a pole and affect the transfer function of the circuit. For sta-
ble operation, minimize the parasitic capacitance and equiva-
lent resistance of the components used in the feedback
circuit.
Circuit Board
High-frequency applications require good grounding, power
supply decoupling, low parasitic capacitance and inductance,
and good isolation between the three inputs to minimize their
crosstalk. Minimal coupling from output to input should
exist to prevent positive feedback.
