PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD848 and AD849 are high speed, low power monolithic
operational amplifiers. The AD848 is internally compensated so
that it is stable for closed loop gains of 5 or greater. The AD849
is fully decompensated and is stable at gains greater than 24.
The AD848 and AD849 achieve their combination of fast ac
and good dc performance by utilizing Analog Devices’ junction
isolated complementary bipolar (CB) process. This process
enables these op amps to achieve their high speed while only
requiring 4.8 mA of current from the power supplies.
The AD848 and AD849 are members of Analog Devices’ family
of high speed op amps. This family includes, among others, the
AD847 which is unity gain stable, with a gain bandwidth of
50 MHz. For more demanding applications, the AD840,
AD841 and AD842 offer even greater precision and greater
output current drive.
The AD848 and AD849 have good dc performance. When
operating with ±5 V supplies, they offer open loop gains of
13 V/mV (AD848 with a 500 load) and low input offset
voltage of 1 mV maximum. Common-mode rejection is a
minimum of 92 dB. Output voltage swing is ±3 V even into
loads as low as 150 .
APPLICATIONS HIGHLIGHTS
1. The high slew rate and fast settling time of the AD848 and
AD849 make them ideal for video instrumentation circuitry,
low noise pre-amps and line drivers.
2. In order to meet the needs of both video and data acquisition
applications, the AD848 and AD849 are optimized and
tested for ±5 V and ±15 V power supply operation.
3. Both amplifiers offer full power bandwidth greater than
20 MHz (for 2 V p-p with ±5 V supplies).
4. The AD848 and AD849 remain stable when driving any
capacitive load.
5. Laser wafer trimming reduces the input offset voltage to
1 mV maximum on all grades, thus eliminating the need for
external offset nulling in many applications.
6. The AD848 is an enhanced replacement for the LM6164
series and can function as a pin-for-pin replacement for
many high speed amplifiers such as the HA2520/2/5 and
EL2020 in applications where the gain is 5 or greater.

OFFSET NULLING
The input voltage of the AD848 and AD849 are very low for
high speed op amps, but if additional nulling is required, the
circuit shown in Figure 3 can be used.
For high performance circuits it is recommended that a resistor
(R
B
in Figures 1 and 2) be used to reduce bias current errors by
matching the impedance at each input. The offset voltage error
caused by the input currents is decreased by more than an order
of magnitude.

GROUNDING AND BYPASSING
In designing practical circuits with the AD848 or AD849, the
user must remember that whenever high frequencies are
involved, some special precautions are in order. Circuits must
be built with short interconnect leads. A large ground plane
should be used whenever possible to provide a low resistance,
low inductance circuit path, as well as minimizing the effects of
high frequency coupling. Sockets should be avoided because the
increased interlead capacitance can degrade bandwidth.
Feedback resistors should be of low enough value to assure that
the time constant formed with the capacitances at the amplifier
summing junction will not limit the amplifier performance.
Resistor values of less than 5 k are recommended. If a larger
resistor must be used, a small (< 10 pF) feedback capacitor in
parallel with the feedback resistor, R
F
, may be used to compen-
sate for the input capacitances and optimize the dynamic per-
formance of the amplifier.
Power supply leads should be bypassed to ground as close as
possible to the amplifier pins. 0.1 µF ceramic disc capacitors are
recommended.
VIDEO LINE DRIVER
The AD848 functions very well as a low cost, high speed line
driver of either terminated or unterminated cables. Figure 22
shows the AD848 driving a doubly terminated cable.
The termination resistor, R
T
, (when equal to the characteristic
impedance of the cable) minimizes reflections from the far end
of the cable. While operating off ±5 V supplies, the AD848
maintains a typical slew rate of 200 V/µs, which means it can
drive a ±1 V, 24 MHz signal on the terminated cable.
A back-termination resistor (R
BT
, also equal to the characteristic
impedance of the cable) may be placed between the AD848
output and the cable in order to damp any reflected signals
caused by a mismatch between R
T
and the cable’s characteristic
impedance. This will result in a “cleaner” signal, although it
requires that the op amp supply ±2 V to the output in order to
achieve a ±1 V swing at the line.

Figure 23. AD848 Driving a Capacitive Load
AD848/AD849–Applications
Often termination is not used, either because signal integrity
requirements are low or because too many high frequency
signals returned to ground contaminate the ground plane.
Unterminated cables appear as capacitive loads. Since the
AD848 and AD849 are stable into any capacitive load, the op
amp will not oscillate if the cable is not terminated; however
pulse integrity will be degraded. Figure 23 shows the AD848
driving both 100 pF and 1000 pF loads.
LOW NOISE PRE-AMP
The input voltage noise spectral densities of the AD848 and the
AD849 are shown in Figure 24. The low wideband noise and
high gain bandwidths of these devices makes them well suited as
pre-amps for high frequency systems.
Figure 24. Input Voltage Noise Spectral Density
Input voltage noise will be the dominant source of noise at the
output in most applications. Other noise sources can be
minimized by keeping resistor values as small as possible.
