The MIC913 is a high-speed, operational amplifier. It provides a gain-bandwidth product of 350MHz with a very low,
4.2mA supply current, and features the tiny SOT-23-5 package.
Supply voltage range is from ±2.5V to ±9V, allowing the
MIC913 to be used in low-voltage circuits or applications
requiring large dynamic range.
The MIC913 requires a minimum gain of +2 or –1 but is stable
driving any capacitative load and achieves excellent PSRR,
making it much easier to use than most conventional highspeed devices. Low supply voltage, low power consumption,
and small packing make the MIC913 ideal for portable
equipment. The ability to drive capacitative loads also makes
it possible to drive long coaxial cables.

Applications Information
The MIC913 is a high-speed, voltage-feedback operational
amplifier featuring very low supply current. The MIC913 is not
unity-gain stable, it requires a minimum gain of +2 or –1 to
ensure stability. The device is however stable even when
driving high capacitance loads.
Driving High Capacitance
The MIC913 is stable when driving any capacitance (see
“Typical Characteristics: Gain Bandwidth and Phase Margin
vs. Load Capacitance”) making it ideal for driving long coaxial
cables or other high-capacitance loads.
Phase margin remains constant as load capacitance is
increased. Most high-speed op amps are only able to drive
limited capacitance.
Note: increasing load capacitance does reduce the
speed of the device (see “Typical Characteristics: Gain Bandwidth and Phase Margin vs.
Load”). In applications where the load capacitance reduces the speed of the op amp to an
unacceptable level, the effect of the load capacitance can be reduced by adding a small resistor
(<100Ω) in series with the output.
Feedback Resistor Selection
Conventional op amp gain configurations and resistor selection apply, the MIC913 is NOT a current feedback device.
Resistor values in the range of 1k to 10k are recommended.
Layout Considerations
All high speed devices require careful PCB layout. The high
stability and high PSRR of the MIC913 make this op amp
easier to use than most, but the following guidelines should
be observed: Capacitance, particularly on the two inputs pins
will degrade performance; avoid large copper traces to the
inputs. Keep the output signal away from the inputs and use
a ground plane.
It is important to ensure adequate supply bypassing capacitors are located close to the device.
Power Supply Bypassing
Regular supply bypassing techniques are recommended. A
10µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF capacitor on both the
positive and negative supplies are ideal. For best performance all bypassing capacitors should be located as close to
the op amp as possible and all capacitors should be low ESL
(equivalent series inductance), ESR (equivalent series resistance). Surface-mount ceramic capacitors are ideal.
Thermal Considerations
The SOT-23-5 package, like all small packages, has a high
thermal resistance. It is important to ensure the IC does not
exceed the maximum operating junction (die) temperature of
85°C. The part can be operated up to the absolute maximum
temperature rating of 125°C, but between 85°C and 125°C
performance will degrade, in particular CMRR will reduce.
A MIC913 with no load, dissipates power equal to the quiescent supply current * supply voltage
When a load is added, the additional power is dissipated in
the output stage of the op amp. The power dissipated in the
device is a function of supply voltage, output voltage and
output current.

Ensure the total power dissipated in the device is no greater
than the thermal capacity of the package. The SOT23-5
package has a thermal resistance of 260°C/W.
