GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4084-2 is a dual, single-supply, 10 MHz bandwidth
amplifier featuring rail-to-rail inputs and outputs. It is guaranteed to operate from 3 V to 30 V (or ±1.5 V to ±15 V).
These amplifiers are well suited for single-supply applications
requiring both ac and precision dc performance. The combination of wide bandwidth, low noise, and precision makes the
ADA4084-2 useful in a wide variety of applications, including
filters and instrumentation.
Other applications for these amplifiers include portable telecom-
munications equipment, power supply control and protection,
and use as amplifiers or buffers for transducers with wide output
ranges. Sensors requiring a rail-to-rail input amplifier include
Hall effect, piezoelectric, and resistive transducers.
The ability to swing rail-to-rail at both the input and output
enables designers to build multistage filters in single-supply
systems and to maintain high signal-to-noise ratios.
The ADA4084-2 is specified over the industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +125°C. The dual ADA4084-2 is available in
the 8-lead SOIC and MSOP surface-mount packages.

For input differential voltages greater than 0.6 V, the input current should be
limited to less than 5 mA to prevent degradation or destruction of the input
devices.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4084-2 is a precision single-supply, rail-to-rail opera-
tional amplifier. Intended for portable instrumentation, the
ADA4084-2 combines the attributes of precision, wide band-
width, and low noise to make it an ideal choice in single-supply
applications that require both ac and precision dc performance.
Other low supply voltage applications for which the ADA4084-2
is well suited are active filters, audio microphone preamplifiers,
power supply control, and telecommunications. To combine all
of these attributes with rail-to-rail input/output operation, novel
circuit design techniques are used.
important that the effective source impedances connected to
the ADA4084-2 inputs be balanced for optimum dc and ac
performance.
To achieve rail-to-rail output, the ADA4084-2 output stage
design employs a unique topology for both sourcing and sinking
current. This circuit topology is illustrated in Figure 74. The
output stage is voltage-driven from the second gain stage. The
signal path through the output stage is inverting; that is, for
positive input signals, Q13 provides the base current drive to Q19
so that it conducts (sinks) current. For negative input signals, the
signal path via Q18 → mirror → Q24 provides the base current
drive for Q23 to conduct (source) current. Both transistors
provide output current until they are forced into saturation.
Figure 73. ADA4084-2Equivalent Input Circuit
For example, Figure 73 illustrates a simplified equivalent circuit
for the input stage of the ADA4084-2. It comprises a PNP
differential pair, Q1 and Q2, and an NPN differential pair, Q3
and Q4, operating concurrently. Diode D100 and Diode D101
serve to clamp the applied differential input voltage to the
ADA4084-2, thereby protecting the input transistors against
Zener breakdown of the emitter-base junctions. Input stage
voltage gains are kept low for input rail-to-rail operation. The
two pairs of differential output voltages are connected to the
second stage of the ADA4084-2, which is a modified compound
folded cascade gain stage. It is also in the second gain stage,
where the two pairs of differential output voltages are combined
into a single-ended output signal voltage used to drive the
output stage.
A key issue in the input stage is the behavior of the input bias
currents over the input common-mode voltage range. Input bias
currents in the ADA4084-2 are the arithmetic sum of the base
currents in Q1 and Q4 and in Q2 and Q3. As a result of this
design approach, the input bias currents in the ADA4084-2 not
only exhibit different amplitudes; they also exhibit different
polarities. This effect is best illustrated by Figure 7, Figure 8,
Figure 30, Figure 31, Figure 53, and Figure 54. It is therefore
Figure 74. ADA4084-2 Equivalent Output Circuit
Thus, the saturation voltage of the output transistors sets the
limit on the ADA4084-2 maximum output voltage swing. Output
short-circuit current limiting is determined by the maximum
signal current into the base of Q13 from the second gain stage.
The output stage also exhibits voltage gain. This is accomplished
by the use of common-emitter amplifiers, and, as a result, the
voltage gain of the output stage (thus, the open-loop gain of the
device) exhibits a dependence on the total load resistance at the
output of the ADA4084-2.

INPUT PROTECTION
As with any semiconductor device, if conditions exist where the
applied input voltages to the device exceed either supply voltage,
the input overvoltage I-to-V characteristic of the device must be
considered. When an overvoltage occurs, the amplifier may be
damaged, depending on the magnitude of the applied voltage
and the magnitude of the fault current.
The D1, D2, D4, and D5 diodes conduct when the input commonmode voltage exceeds either supply pin by a diode drop. This
varies with temperature and is in the range of 0.3 V to 0.8 V. As
illustrated in the simplified equivalent circuit shown in Figure 73,
the ADA4084-2 does not have any internal current limiting resis-
tors; thus, fault currents can quickly rise to damaging levels.
This input current is not inherently damaging to the device,
provided that it is limited to 5 mA or less. If a fault condition
causes more than 5 mA to flow, an external series resistor
should be added at the expense of additional thermal noise.
Figure 75 illustrates a typical noninverting configuration for an
overvoltage-protected amplifier where the series resistance, R
is chosen, such that

For example, a 1 kΩ resistor protects the ADA4084-2 against
input signals up to 5 V above and below the supplies. Note that
the thermal noise of a 1 kΩ resistor at room temperature is
4 nV/√Hz, which exceeds the voltage noise of the ADA4084-2.
For other configurations where both inputs are used, each input
should be protected against abuse with a series resistor. Again,
to ensure optimum dc and ac performance, it is recommended
that source impedance levels be balanced.

To protect Q1-Q2 and Q3-Q4 from large differential voltages
that may result in Zener breakdown of the emitter-base junction,
D100 and D101 are connected between the two inputs. This
precludes operation as a comparator. For a more complete
description, see the MT-035 Tutorial, Op Amp Inputs, Outputs,
Single-Supply, and Rail-to-Rail Issues; the MT-083 Tutor ial ,

OUTPUT PHASE REVERSAL
Some operational amplifiers designed for single-supply operation
exhibit an output voltage phase reversal when their inputs are
driven beyond their useful common-mode range. Typically, for
single-supply bipolar op amps, the negative supply determines
the lower limit of their common-mode range. With these devices,
external clamping diodes, with the anode connected to ground
and the cathode to the inputs, prevent input signal excursions
from exceeding the negative supply of the device (that is, GND),
preventing a condition that causes the output voltage to change
phase. JFET input amplifiers can also exhibit phase reversal,
and, if so, a series input resistor is usually required to prevent it.
The ADA4084-2 is free from reasonable input voltage range
restrictions, provided that input voltages no greater than the
supply voltages are applied. Although device output does not
change phase, large currents can flow through the input
protection diodes. Therefore, the technique recommended in the
Input Protection section should be applied to those applications
where the likelihood of input voltages exceeding the supply
voltages is high.
DESIGNING LOW NOISE CIRCUITS IN SINGLESUPPLY APPLICATIONS
In single-supply applications, devices like the ADA4084-2
extend the dynamic range of the application through the use of
rail-to-rail operation. Referring to the op amp noise model

As a design aid, Figure 77 shows the total equivalent input noise
of the ADA4084-2 and the total thermal noise of a resistor for
comparison. Note that for source resistance less than 1 kΩ, the
equivalent input noise voltage of the ADA4084-2 is dominant.
Figure 77. ADA4084-2Equivalent Thermal Noise vs. Total Source Resistance
Because circuit SNR is the critical parameter in the final analysis,
the noise behavior of a circuit is sometimes expressed in terms
of its noise figure, NF. The noise figure is defined as the ratio of
a circuit’s output signal-to-noise to its input signal-to-noise.
Noise figure is generally used for RF and microwave circuit
analysis in a 50 Ω system. This is not very useful for op amp
circuits where the input and output impedances can vary
greatly. For a more complete description of noise figure, see the
MT-052 Tutorial, Op Amp Noise Figure: Don’t be Mislead,
available at www.analog.com.
Signal levels in the application invariably increase to maximize
circuit SNR, which is not an option in low voltage, single-supply
applications.
Therefore, to achieve optimum circuit SNR in single-supply
applications, it is recommended that an operational amplifier
with the lowest equivalent input noise voltage be chosen, along
with source resistance levels that are consistent with maintaining
low total circuit noise.
COMPARATOR OPERATION
Although op amps are quite different from comparators,
occasionally an unused section of a dual or a quad op amp
can be used as a comparator; however, this is not recommended
for any rail-to-rail output op amps. For rail-to-rail output op
amps, the output stage is generally a ratioed current mirror with
bipolar or MOSFET transistors. With the part operating open
loop, the second stage increases the current drive to the ratioed
mirror to close the loop. However, it cannot, which results in an
increase in supply current. With the op amp configured as a
comparator, the supply current can be significantly higher (see
Figure 76). An unused section should be configured as a voltage
follower with the noninverting input connected to a voltage
within the input voltage range. The ADA4084-2has unique
second stage and output stage designs that greatly reduce the
excess supply current when the op amp is operating open loop.
