DESCRIPTION
The OPA627 and OPA637
Difet
operational amplifi-
ers provide a new level of performance in a precision
FET op amp. When compared to the popular OPA111
op amp, the OPA627/637 has lower noise, lower offset
voltage, and much higher speed. It is useful in a broad
range of precision and high speed analog circuitry.
The OPA627/637 is fabricated on a high-speed, dielec-
trically-isolated complementary NPN/PNP process. It
operates over a wide range of power supply voltage—
±4.5V to ±18V. Laser-trimmed
Difet
input circuitry
provides high accuracy and low-noise performance
comparable with the best bipolar-input op amps.
High frequency complementary transistors allow in-
creased circuit bandwidth, attaining dynamic perform-
ance not possible with previous precision FET op
amps. The OPA627 is unity-gain stable. The OPA637
is stable in gains equal to or greater than five.
Difet
fabrication achieves extremely low input bias
currents without compromising input voltage noise
performance. Low input bias current is maintained
over a wide input common-mode voltage range with
unique cascode circuitry.
The OPA627/637 is available in plastic DIP, SOIC
and metal TO-99 packages. Industrial and military
temperature range models are available.

DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Burr-Brown
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling
and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degrada-
tion to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits
may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its
published specifications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The OPA627 is unity-gain stable. The OPA637 may be used
to achieve higher speed and bandwidth in circuits with noise
gain greater than five. Noise gain refers to the closed-loop
gain of a circuit as if the non-inverting op amp input were
being driven. For example, the OPA637 may be used in a
non-inverting amplifier with gain greater than five, or an
inverting amplifier of gain greater than four.
When choosing between the OPA627 or OPA637, it is
important to consider the high frequency noise gain of your
circuit configuration. Circuits with a feedback capacitor
(Figure 1) place the op amp in unity noise-gain at high
frequency. These applications must use the OPA627 for
proper stability. An exception is the circuit in Figure 2,
where a small feedback capacitance is used to compensate
for the input capacitance at the op amp’s inverting input. In
this case, the closed-loop noise gain remains constant with
frequency, so if the closed-loop gain is equal to five or
greater, the OPA637 may be used.

OFFSET VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT
The OPA627/637 is laser-trimmed for low offset voltage
and drift, so many circuits will not require external adjust-
ment. Figure 3 shows the optional connection of an external
potentiometer to adjust offset voltage. This adjustment should
not be used to compensate for offsets created elsewhere in a
system (such as in later amplification stages or in an A/D
converter) because this could introduce excessive tempera-
ture drift. Generally, the offset drift will change by approxi-
mately 4µV/°C for 1mV of change in the offset voltage due
to an offset adjustment (as shown on Figure 3).
FIGURE 2. Circuits with Noise Gain Equal to or Greater than
Five May Use the OPA637.
amp contributes little additional noise. Below 1kΩ, op amp
noise dominates over the resistor noise, but compares
favorably with precision bipolar op amps.
CIRCUIT LAYOUT
As with any high speed, wide bandwidth circuit, careful
layout will ensure best performance. Make short, direct
interconnections and avoid stray wiring capacitance—espe-
cially at the input pins and feedback circuitry.
The case (TO-99 metal package only) is internally connected
to the negative power supply as it is with most common op
amps. Pin 8 of the plastic DIP, SOIC, and TO-99 packages
has no internal connection.
Power supply connections should be bypassed with good
high frequency capacitors positioned close to the op amp
pins. In most cases 0.1µF ceramic capacitors are adequate.
The OPA627/637 is capable of high output current (in
excess of 45mA). Applications with low impedance loads or
capacitive loads with fast transient signals demand large
currents from the power supplies. Larger bypass capacitors
such as 1µF solid tantalum capacitors may improve dynamic
performance in these applications.
NOISE PERFORMANCE
Some bipolar op amps may provide lower voltage noise
performance, but both voltage noise and bias current noise
contribute to the total noise of a system. The OPA627/637
is unique in providing very low voltage noise and very low
current noise. This provides optimum noise performance
over a wide range of sources, including reactive source
impedances. This can be seen in the performance curve
showing the noise of a source resistor combined with the
noise of an OPA627. Above a 2kΩ source resistance, the op

takes approximately 500ns. When the output is driven into
the positive limit, recovery takes approximately 6µs. Output
recovery of the OPA627 can be improved using the output
clamp circuit shown in Figure 5. Diodes at the inverting
input prevent degradation of input bias current.
INPUT BIAS CURRENT
Difet
fabrication of the OPA627/637 provides very low
input bias current. Since the gate current of a FET doubles
approximately every 10°C, to achieve lowest input bias
current, the die temperature should be kept as low as pos-
sible. The high speed and therefore higher quiescent current
of the OPA627/637 can lead to higher chip temperature. A
simple press-on heat sink such as the Burr-Brown model
807HS (TO-99 metal package) can reduce chip temperature
by approximately 15°C, lowering the IB to one-third its
warmed-up value. The 807HS heat sink can also reduce low-
frequency voltage noise caused by air currents and thermo-
electric effects. See the data sheet on the 807HS for details.
Temperature rise in the plastic DIP and SOIC packages can
be minimized by soldering the device to the circuit board.
Wide copper traces will also help dissipate heat.
The OPA627/637 may also be operated at reduced power
supply voltage to minimize power dissipation and tempera-
ture rise. Using ±5V power supplies reduces power dissipa-
tion to one-third of that at ±15V. This reduces the IB of TO-
99 metal package devices to approximately one-fourth the
value at ±15V.
Leakage currents between printed circuit board traces can
easily exceed the input bias current of the OPA627/637. A
circuit board “guard” pattern (Figure 4) reduces leakage
effects. By surrounding critical high impedance input cir-
cuitry with a low impedance circuit connection at the same
potential, leakage current will flow harmlessly to the low-
impedance node. The case (TO-99 metal package only) is
internally connected to –VS.
Input bias current may also be degraded by improper han-
dling or cleaning. Contamination from handling parts and
circuit boards may be removed with cleaning solvents and
deionized water. Each rinsing operation should be followed
by a 30-minute bake at 85°C.
Many FET-input op amps exhibit large changes in input
bias current with changes in input voltage. Input stage
cascode circuitry makes the input bias current of the
OPA627/637 virtually constant with wide common-mode
voltage changes. This is ideal for accurate high input-
impedance buffer applications.
PHASE-REVERSAL PROTECTION
The OPA627/637 has internal phase-reversal protection.
Many FET-input op amps exhibit a phase reversal when the
input is driven beyond its linear common-mode range. This
is most often encountered in non-inverting circuits when the
input is driven below –12V, causing the output to reverse
into the positive rail. The input circuitry of the OPA627/637
does not induce phase reversal with excessive common-
mode voltage, so the output limits into the appropriate rail.
OUTPUT OVERLOAD
When the inputs to the OPA627/637 are overdriven, the
output voltage of the OPA627/637 smoothly limits at ap-
proximately 2.5V from the positive and negative power
supplies. If driven to the negative swing limit, recovery

CAPACITIVE LOADS
As with any high-speed op amp, best dynamic performance
can be achieved by minimizing the capacitive load. Since a
load capacitance presents a decreasing impedance at higher
frequency, a load capacitance which is easily driven by a
slow op amp can cause a high-speed op amp to perform
poorly. See the typical curves showing settling times as a
function of capacitive load. The lower bandwidth of the
OPA627 makes it the better choice for driving large capaci-
tive loads. Figure 6 shows a circuit for driving very large
load capacitance. This circuit’s two-pole response can also
be used to sharply limit system bandwidth. This is often
useful in reducing the noise of systems which do not require
the full bandwidth of the OPA627.

INPUT PROTECTION
The inputs of the OPA627/637 are protected for voltages
between +VS + 2V and –VS – 2V. If the input voltage can
exceed these limits, the amplifier should be protected. The
diode clamps shown in Figure 7a will prevent the input
voltage from exceeding one forward diode voltage drop
beyond the power supplies—well within the safe limits. If
the input source can deliver current in excess of the maxi-
mum forward current of the protection diodes, use a series
resistor, RS, to limit the current. Be aware that adding
resistance to the input will increase noise. The 4nV/√Hz
theoretical thermal noise of a 1kΩ resistor will add to the
4.5nV/√Hz noise of the OPA627/637 (by the square-root of
the sum of the squares), producing a total noise of 6nV/√Hz.
Resistors below 100Ω add negligible noise.
Leakage current in the protection diodes can increase the
total input bias current of the circuit. The specified maxi-
mum leakage current for commonly used diodes such as the
1N4148 is approximately 25nA—more than a thousand
times larger than the input bias current of the OPA627/637.
Leakage current of these diodes is typically much lower and
may be adequate in many applications. Light falling on the
junction of the protection diodes can dramatically increase
leakage current, so common glass-packaged diodes should
be shielded from ambient light. Very low leakage can be
achieved by using a diode-connected FET as shown. The
2N4117A is specified at 1pA and its metal case shields the
junction from light.
Sometimes input protection is required on I/V converters of
inverting amplifiers (Figure 7b). Although in normal opera-
tion, the voltage at the summing junction will be near zero
(equal to the offset voltage of the amplifier), large input
transients may cause this node to exceed 2V beyond the
power supplies. In this case, the summing junction should
be protected with diode clamps connected to ground. Even
with the low voltage present at the summing junction,
common signal diodes may have excessive leakage current.
Since the reverse voltage on these diodes is clamped, a
diode-connected signal transistor can be used as an inexpen-
sive low leakage diode (Figure 7b).

When used as a unity-gain buffer, large common-mode input voltage steps
produce transient variations in input-stage currents. This causes the rising
edge to be slower and falling edges to be faster than nominal slew rates
observed in higher-gain circuits.

When driven with a very fast input step (left), common-mode
transients cause a slight variation in input stage currents which
will reduce output slew rate. If the input step slew rate is reduced
(right), output slew rate will increase slightly.
