LM108A/LM208A/LM308A Operational Amplifiers

General Description

The LM108/LM108A series are precision operational ampli­fiers having specifications about a factor of ten better than
FET amplifiers over their operating temperature range. In
addition to low input currents, these devices have extremely
low offset voltage, making it possible to eliminate offset ad­justments, in most cases, and obtain performance ap­proaching chopper stabilized amplifiers.

The devices operate with supply voltages from

g

2V to

g

18V and have sufficient supply rejection to use unregulat­ed supplies. Although the circuit is interchangeable with and
uses the same compensation as the LM101A, an alternate
compensation scheme can be used to make it particularly
insensitive to power supply noise and to make supply by­pass capacitors unnecessary.

The low current error of the LM108A series makes possible
many designs that are not practical with conventional ampli­fiers. In fact, it operates from 10 MX source resistances,

introducing less error than devices like the 709 with 10 kX
sources. Integrators with drifts less than 500 mV/sec and
analog time delays in excess of one hour can be made us­ing capacitors no larger than 1 mF.

The LM208A is identical to the LM108A, except that the
LM208A has its performance guaranteed over a

85§C temperature range, instead ofb55§Ctoa125§C.
The LM308A devices have slightly-relaxed specifications
and performances over a 0

Note 1: The maximum junction temperature of the LM108A is 150§C, while that of the LM208A is 100§C. For operating at elevated temperatures, devices in the H08
package must be derated based on a thermal resistance of 160

§

C/W, junction to ambient, or 20§C/W, junction to case. The thermal resistance of the dual-in-line

package is 100

C/W, junction to ambient.

Note 2: The inputs are shunted with back-to-back diodes for overvoltage protection. Therefore, excessive current will flow if a differential input voltage in excess of
1V is applied between the inputs unless some limiting resistance is used.

Note 3: For supply voltages less than

15V, the absolute maximum input voltage is equal to the supply voltage.
