PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD846 is a monolithic, very high speed operational ampli­fier offering high performance. Although technically classed as a current-feedback or transimpedance amplifier, it may be used in much the same way as traditional op amps while providing significant performance benefits. Employing Analog Devices’ junction isolated complementary bipolar (CB) process, the AD846 achieves true “12-bit” (0.01%) precision on critical ac and dc parameters, a level of performance unmatched by amplifiers fabricated using either the dielectrically isolated (DI) or other bipolar processes.
The AD846 offers significant advantages over conventional high speed operational amplifiers. It maintains a nearly con­stant bandwidth and settling time to 0.01% over a wide range of closed-loop gains. This makes the AD846 ideal for amplifying the residue in multiple-pass analog-to-digital converters.
Other advantages include: low input errors and high open-loop transresistance (200 M) into a 500 load, ensuring true 12-bit dc accuracy for closed-loop gains from –1 to gains greater than –100. This combination of ac and dc perfor­mance makes the AD846 an excellent choice for buffering precision high speed DACs and flash ADCs.

The AD846 is available in three performance grades. The AD846A and AD846B are rated over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. The AD846S is rated over the full mili­tary temperature range of –55°C to +125°C and is available processed to MIL-STD-883B, Rev C.
The AD846 is available in two types of 8-lead packages: plastic mini-DIP and hermetic cerdip. The AD846AR-16 is available in the 16-lead SOIC package. “A” and “S” grade chips are also available.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD846 achieves settling times of 110 ns to 0.01%
for gains of –1 to –10, with a 450 V/µs slew rate, while consuming only 5 mA of supply current.
2. For closed-loop gains of –1 to –100, the high speed perfor­mance of the AD846 is achieved without sacrificing full 12-bit dc precision.
3. The AD846 is well suited to line driver and video buffer applications where the properties of low distortion and high slew rate are required.

POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
The power supply connections to the AD846 must maintain a low impedance to ground over a bandwidth of 40 MHz or more. This is especially important when driving a significant resistive or capacitive load, since all current delivered to the load comes from the power supplies. Multiple high quality bypass capacitors are recommended for each power supply line in any critical application. A 0.1 µF ceramic and a 2.2 µF electrolytic capacitor as shown in Figure 35 placed as close as possible to the am­plifier (with short lead lengths to power supply common) will assure adequate high frequency bypassing, in most applications. A minimum bypass capacitance of 0.1 µF should be used for any application.

Figure 35. Recommended Power Supply Bypassing
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD846 differs from conventional operational amplifiers in that it is a transimpedance device rather than a conventional voltage amplifier. Figure 36 is a simplified schematic of the AD846. The input stage consists of a pair of transistors, Q1 and Q2, which are biased by two diode-connected transistors, Q3 and Q4. Transistors Q1 and Q2 have their emitters connected together, and this common point functions as the inverting in­put of the amplifier. Correspondingly, the common connection of the two biasing diodes acts as the noninverting input.

Because the input error signal developed is in the form of a current, not a voltage, the AD846 differs from conventional operational amplifiers. This also means that, unlike most opera­tional amplifiers which rely on negative feedback to produce a “virtual ground” at the inverting input terminal, this terminal explicitly has a low impedance.
A unique circuit approach allows the AD846 to realize an open­loop transimpedance of close to 200 M. This is nearly three orders of magnitude greater than that of any other operational transimpedance amplifier and results in extremely high levels of dc precision.
As an example, the output voltage gain error is approximately equal to the value of the feedback resistor divided by the value of the open-loop transimpedance of the amplifier. That is, when using a 1 k feedback resistor, this error is one part in 200,000. For a transimpedance amplifier with 1 M transimpedance, this error is only one part in 1000; such an amplifier would barely be able to achieve 10-bit precision.
Figure 39 is a simplified three-terminal model for the AD846. Figure 40 is a simplified three-terminal model for a conventional voltage op amp. The action of current feedback serves to modify the behavior of the amplifier under closed-loop conditions. The feedback resistor, R
, is somewhat analogous to the input stage
F
transconductance of a conventional voltage amplifier; and therefore, if the value of R
is held constant, the closed-loop
F
bandwidth also remains virtually constant, independent of closed-loop voltage gain.

A simple equation can, therefore, be used to determine the band­width of an amplifier employing the AD846 in the inverting configuration.

In the case of the voltage amplifier, the closed-loop bandwidth decreases directly with increasing values of (1 + R

normal practice for stabilizing conventional op amps, will cause this amplifier to become unstable because the closed-loop band­width will increase beyond the stable operating frequency.
A similar approach can be taken to calculate the noise perfor­mance of the amplifier. A simplified noise model is shown in Figure 42.

USING THE COMPENSATION PIN OF THE AD846
Additional compensation may be provided for the AD846 by applying an external capacitance between Pin 5 and analog ground (Figure 44). The nominal value of the AD846s internal compensation capacitor is 7 pF. For a given value of feedback resistance (R
), any added external capacitance reduces the
F
amplifiers slew rate and bandwidth proportionally.
Figure 42. Op Amp Simplified Noise Model
NONINVERTING GAIN OPERATION
The AD846 can be used as a noninverting amplifier or voltage follower, operating at gains between 1 and 200. A minimum value of R
equal to 1 k should be employed. For low gains
F
(1 to 2), the input signal should be applied to the AD846s non­inverting input through a 100 series resistor; this will help reduce peaking. The best transient response will occur when the amplifiers output level is below 5 V peak to peak.
At closed-loop gains of 3 or more, the input resistor is not re­quired unless peak signals greater than 3 V will be applied. The amplifiers bandwidth can be determined by using the inverting amplifiers bandwidth equation or from Figure 41. For example, at a gain of + 10 (R
= 1 k, RS = 100 ) the bandwidth of the
F
AD846 will be approximately 33 MHz; at a gain of +100,

In addition to providing for external compensation, Pin 5 may be used to clamp the output of the amplifier, as shown in Figure 45. The output can be clamped anywhere within the output range (approximately ±10 V) of the amplifier. The in­put should also be clamped as a precaution against damaging the amplifiers input transistors.

This compensation node may also be used as an additional output terminal as in the precision transconductance amplifier application of Figure 46.
Figure 46. A Precision Transconductance Amplifier
The AD846 can be used in either the inverting transconduc­tance mode as shown in Figure 46, or in a noninverting mode with R
grounded and VIN applied to the noninverting terminal.
S
The current output is essentially constant over a compliance range of ±10 V at the compensation node. The output current (from Pin 5) is limited to about ±1 mA due to internal satura­tion. Under these circumstances the normal output pin provides a buffered version of the compensation node output voltage. Output load impedance of 500 or greater will not affect the accuracy of the transconductance conversion.
THE AD846 IN A 2 MHz, 12-BIT SUBRANGING A /D CONVERTER CIRCUIT
The combination of fast settling times at high gains and low dc errors make the AD846 ideal for use as an error amplifier in high speed, 12-bit subranging A-D applications. In the circuit of Figure 47, an AD842 serves as an input amplifier. First pass conversion is accomplished, in a straightforward manner, determining the top 7 bits. The latch then holds these top 7 bits which are applied to a 7 bit, 12-bit accurate DAC and also to the highest 7 bits of the adder (note that a sample-and-hold should be used ahead of this converter to minimize errors due to its 500 ns acquisition time). In the second pass, the input switches S1 and S2 and S3 are set to state 2. The DAC output is then subtracted from the input signal and the resulting difference is then amplified by an AD846 gain of 32 follower. This gain, together with a 1/64th scale offset, insures a unipolar residue which can be converted by the flash A-D. Conversion is accomplished via switches S1, S2 and S3 in state 1. Switch S1 connects the input signal of the AD846 residue amplifier to ground which minimized overload recovery time.
THE AD846 AS AN OPEN-LOOP LEVEL SHIFTER
The AD846 can also be used for open-loop level shifting. As shown in Figure 48, resistor R rent which is proportional to the input voltage, V
is used to develop an input cur-
S
. This current
IN
flows from the compensation node (Pin 5) developing a voltage across resistor R
(RC is equal in value to resistor RS) which,
C
rather than being grounded, has one end tied to reference volt­age V2. The voltage appearing at Pin 5 is, therefore, voltage V
IN
plus voltage V2 and will directly follow changes in VIN. By scal­ing resistor R
, a level shift with voltage gain can be produced.

In addition, the normal voltage output at Pin 6 is approximately equal to the voltage at Pin 5 thus providing a low impedance, buffered output for the level shifter.

THE AD846 AS A HIGH SPEED DAC BUFFER
The AD846 will enable the AD568 12-bit DAC to develop a 10 V output step which settles to within 0.025 percent of itsfinal value in about 100 ns. This AD846/AD568 combina­tion is shown in the circuit of Figure 49. Correct power supply decoupling is essential: a 2.2 µF tantalum capacitor con­nected in parallel with a 0.1 µF to 0.01 µF ceramic disc capacitor is usually sufficient. These should be placed as close to the power supply pins as possible. Also, a ground plane should be employed; this ensure that there is a low impedance signal path to ground which allows the fastest possible output settling. In 12-bit systems with the AD846 operating at gains of 10 or less, inad­equate supply decoupling can cause the output settling to degrade from 100 ns to as much as 300 ns, with a 10 V output step applied.
