15MHz, BiMOS Operational Amplifier with
MOSFET Input/CMOS Output
CA3130A and CA3130 are op amps that combine the
advantage of both CMOS and bipolar transistors.
Gate-protected P-Channel MOSFET (PMOS) transistors are
used in the input circuit to provide very-high-input
impedance, very-low-input current, and exceptional speed
performance. The use of PMOS transistors in the input stage
results in common-mode input-voltage capability down to
0.5V below the negative-supply terminal, an important
attribute in single-supply applications.
A CMOS transistor-pair, capable of swinging the output
voltage to within 10mV of either supply-voltage terminal (at
very high values of load impedance), is employed as the
output circuit.
The CA3130 Series circuits operate at supply voltages
ranging from 5V to 16V, (±2.5V to ±8V). They can be phase
compensated with a single external capacitor, and have
terminals for adjustment of offset voltage for applications
requiring offset-null capability. Terminal provisions are also
made to permit strobing of the output stage.
• The CA3130A offers superior input characteristics over
those of the CA3130.

Application Information
Circuit Description
Figure 1 is a block diagram of the CA3130 Series CMOS
Operational Amplifiers. The input terminals may be operated
down to 0.5V below the negative supply rail, and the output
can be swung very close to either supply rail in many
applications. Consequently, the CA3130 Series circuits are
ideal for single-supply operation. Three Class A amplifier
stages, having the individual gain capability and current
consumption shown in Figure 1, provide the total gain of the
CA3130. A biasing circuit provides two potentials for
common use in the first and second stages.
Terminal 8 can be used both for phase compensation and to
strobe the output stage into qui esce nce . When Terminal 8 is
tied to the negative supply rail (Terminal 4) by mechanical or
electrical means, the output potential at Terminal 6
essentially rises to the positive supply-rail potential at
Terminal 7. This condition of essentially zero current drain in
6
the output stage under the strobed “OFF” condition can only
be achieved when the ohmic load resistance presented to
the amplifier is very high (e.g.,when the amplifier output is
used to drive CMOS digital circuits in Comparator
applications).

results in deterioration of the power-supply-rejection ratio
(PSRR) at total supply voltages below 8.3V. Operation at
total supply voltages below about 4.5V results in seriously
degraded performance.
Output Stage
The output stage consists of a drain-loaded inverting
amplifier using CMOS transistors operating in the Class A
mode. When operating into very high resistance loads, the
output can be swung within millivolts of either supply rail.
Because the output stage is a drain-loaded amplifier, its gain
is dependent upon the load impedance. The transfer
characteristics of the output stage for a load returned to the
negative supply rail are shown in Figure 2. Typical op amp
loads are readily driven by the output stage. Because largesignal excursions are non-linear, requiring feedback f or good
waveform reproduction, transient delays may be
encountered. As a voltage follower , the amplifier can achiev e
0.01% accuracy levels, including the negative supply rail.

Input Current Variation with Common Mode Input
Voltage
As shown in the Table of Electrical Specifications, the input
current for the CA3130 Series Op Amps is typically 5pA at
TA = 25oC when Terminals 2 and 3 are at a common-mode
potential of +7.5V with respect to negative supply T erminal 4.
Figure 3 contains data showing the variation of input current
as a function of common-mode input voltage at TA = 25oC.
These data show that circuit designers can advantageously
exploit these characteristics to design circuits which typically
require an input current of less than 1pA, provided the
common-mode input voltage does not exceed 2V. As
previously noted, the input current is essentially the result of
the leakage current through the gate-protection diodes in the
input circuit and, therefore, a function of the applied voltage.
Although the finite resistance of the glass terminal-to-case
insulator of the metal can package also contributes an
increment of leakage current, there are useful compensating
factors. Because the gate-protection network functions as if
it is connected to Terminal 4 potential, and the Metal Can
case of the CA3130 is also internally tied to T erminal 4, input
Terminal 3 is essentially “guarded” from spurious leakage
currents.

Offset Nulling
Offset-voltage nulling is usually accomplished with a
100,000Ω potentiometer connected across Terminals 1 and
5 and with the potentiometer slider arm connected to
Terminal 4. A fine offset-null adjustment usually can be
effected with the slider arm positioned in the mid-point of the
potentiometer’s total range.
Input-Current Variation with Temperature
The input current of the CA3130 Series circuits is typically
5pA at 25oC. The major portion of this input current is due to
leakage current through the gate-protective diodes in the
input circuit. As with any semiconductor-junction device,
including op amps with a junction-FET input stage, the
leakage current approximately doubles for every 10oC
increase in temperature. Figure 4 provides data on the
typical variation of input bias current as a function of
temperature in the CA3130.
In applications requiring the lowest practical input current
and incremental increases in current because of “warm-up”
effects, it is suggested that an appropriate heat sink be used
with the CA3130. In addition, when “sinking” or “sourcing”
significant output current the chip temperature increases,
causing an increase in the input current. In such cases, heatsinking can also very markedly reduce and stabilize input
current variations.
Input Offset Voltage (VIO) Variation with DC Bias
and Device Operating Life
It is well known that the characteristics of a MOSFET device
can change slightly when a DC gate-source bias potential is
applied to the device for extended time periods. The
magnitude of the change is increased at high temperatures.
Users of the CA3130 should be alert to the possible impacts
of this effect if the application of the device involves e xtended
operation at high temperatures with a significant differential
DC bias voltage applied across Terminals 2 and 3. Figure 5
shows typical data pertinent to shifts in offset voltage
encountered with CA3130 devices (metal can package)
during life testing. At lower temperatures (metal can and
plastic), for example at 85oC, this change in voltage is
considerably less. In typical linear applications where the
differential voltage is small and symmetrical, these
incremental changes are of about the same magnitude as
those encountered in an operational amplifier employing a
bipolar transistor input stage. The 2VDC differential voltage
example represents conditions when the amplifier output
stage is “toggled”, e.g., as in comparator applications.
