A HIGH SPEED INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER
CIRCUIT
The instrumentation amplifier circuit shown in Figure 33 can
provide a range of gains from unity up to 1000 and higher using
only a single AD713. The circuit bandwidth is 1.2 MHz at a gain
of 1 and 250 kHz at a gain of 10; settling time for the entire
circuit is less than 5 µs to within 0.01% for a 10 V step, (G = 10).
Other uses for Amplifier A4 include an active data guard and an
active sense input.

HIGH SPEED OP AMP APPLICATIONS AND

DAC Buffers (I-to-V Converters)
The wide input dynamic range of JFET amplifiers makes them
ideal for use in both waveform reconstruction and digital audio
DAC applications. The AD713, in conjunction with a 16-bit
DAC, can achieve 0.0016% THD without requiring the use of a
deglitcher in digital audio applications.
Driving the Analog Input of an Analog-to-Digital
Converter
An op amp driving the analog input of an analog-to-digital
converter (ADC), such as that shown in Figure 37, must be
capable of maintaining a constant output voltage under dynami-
cally changing load conditions. In successive approximation
converters, the input current is compared to a series of switched
trial currents. The comparison point is diode clamped but may
vary by several hundred millivolts, resulting in high frequency
modulation of the analog-to-digital input current. The output
impedance of a feedback amplifier is made artificially low by its

loop gain. At high frequencies, where the loop gain is low, the
amplifier output impedance can approach its open-loop value.

Figure 37. AD713 as an ADC Buffer
Most IC amplifiers exhibit a minimum open-loop output imped-
ance of 25 Ω, due to current limiting resistors. A few hundred
microamps reflected from the change in converter loading can
introduce errors in instantaneous input voltage. If the analog-
to-digital conversion speed is not excessive and the bandwidth
of the amplifier is sufficient, the amplifier output returns to
the nominal value before the converter makes its comparison.
However, many amplifiers have relatively narrow bandwidths,
yielding slow recovery from output transients. The AD713 is
ideally suited as a driver for ADCs because it offers both a wide
bandwidth and a high open-loop gain.

Driving A Large Capacitive Load
The circuit of Figure 40 uses a 100 Ω isolation resistor that
enables the amplifier to drive capacitive loads exceeding
1500 pF; the resistor effectively isolates the high frequency
feedback from the load and stabilizes the circuit. Low frequency
feedback is returned to the amplifier summing junction via the
low-pass filter formed by the 100 Ω series resistor and the load
capacitance, C
L
. Figure 41 shows a typical transient response for
this connection.

CMOS DAC APPLICATIONS
The AD713 is an excellent output amplifier for CMOS DACs. It
can be used to perform both two- and four-quadrant operation.
The output impedance of a DAC using an inverted R-2R ladder
approaches R for codes containing many 1s, 3R for codes
containing a single 1, and infinity for codes containing all 0s.
For example, the output resistance of the AD7545 modulates
between 11 kΩ and 33 kΩ. Therefore, with the DAC’s internal
feedback resistance of 11 kΩ, the noise gain varies from 2 to
4/3. This changing noise gain modulates the effect of the input
offset voltage of the amplifier, resulting in nonlinear DAC
amplifier performance. The AD713, with its guaranteed 1.5 mV
input offset voltage, minimizes this effect, achieving 12-bit
performance.
Figure 42. Unipolar Binary Operation
FILTER APPLICATIONS
A Programmable State Variable Filter
For the state variable or universal filter configuration of Figure 44
to function properly, DAC A1 and DAC B1 must control the
gain and Q of the filter characteristic, and DAC A2 and DAC B2
must accurately track for the simple expression of f
C
to be true.
This is readily accomplished using two AD7528 DACs and one
AD713 quad op amp. Capacitor C3 compensates for the effects
of op amp gain bandwidth limitations.
Figure 42 and Figure 43 show the AD713 and a 12-bit CMOS
DAC, the AD7545, configured for either a unipolar binary (two-
quadrant multiplication) or bipolar (four-quadrant multiplication)
operation. Capacitor C1 provides phase compensation, which
reduces overshoot and ringing.

This filter provides low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass outputs
and is ideally suited for applications where microprocessor
control of filter parameters is required. The programmable
range for component values shown is f

Q = 0.3 to 4.5.
