General Description
The LM146 series of quad op amps consists of four independent, high gain, internally compensated, low power, programmable amplifiers. Two external resistors (R
the user to program the gain bandwidth product, slew rate,
supply current, input bias current, input offset current and input noise. For example, the user can trade-off supply current
for bandwidth or optimize noise figure for a given source resistance. In a similar way, other amplifier characteristics can
be tailored to the application. Except for the two programming pins at the end of the package, the LM146 pin-out is
the same as the LM124 and LM148.

Note 1: For supply voltages less than±15V, the absolute maximum input voltage is equal to the supply voltage.

Note 3: Any of the amplifier outputs can be shorted to ground indefinitely; however, more than one should not be simultaneously shorted as the maximum junction
temperature will be exceeded.

Application Hints
Avoid reversing the power supply polarity; the device will fail.
Common-Mode Input Voltage: The negative
common-mode voltage limit is one diode drop above the
negative supply voltage. Exceeding this limit on either input
will result in an output phase reversal. The positive
common-mode limit is typically 1V below the positive supply
voltage. No output phase reversal will occur if this limit is exceeded by either input.
Output VoltageSwing vs I

Temperature Effect on the GBW: The GBW (gain band-

perature. Compensation can be provided by creating an I
current directly proportional to temperature (see typical ap-

, of the de-

plications).
Isolation Between Amplifiers: The LM146 die is isother-
mally layed out such that crosstalk between
all 4
amplifiers is
in excess of −105 dB (DC). Optimum isolation (better than
−110 dB) occurs between amplifiers A and D, B and C; that
is, if amplifier A dissipates power on its output stage, amplifier D is the one which will be affected the least, and vice
versa. Same argument holds for amplifiers B and C.

Low Power Supply Operation: The quad op amp operates
±
down to
1.3V supply. Also, since the internal circuitry is biased through programmable current sources, no degradation of the device speed will occur.
Speed vs Power Consumption: LM146 vs LM4250 (single
programmable). Through
Figure 4
, we observe that the
LM146’s power consumption has been optimized for GBW
products above 200 kHz, whereas the LM4250 will reach a
GBW of no more than 300 kHz. For GBW products below
200 kHz, the LM4250 will consume less power.
