2 Applications along with the high open-loop gain of 120 dB enables
accurate signal conditioning. With these
Photodiode Amplifier specifications, the LMP7721 has the performance to
High Impedance Sensor Amplifier excel in a wide variety of applications such as
Ion Chamber Amplifier electrochemical cell amplifiers and sensor interface
circuits.
Electrometer Amplifier
pH Electrode Amplifier The LMP7721 is offered in an 8-pin SOIC package
with a special pinout that isolates the amplifier’s input
Transimpedance Amplifier from the power supply and output pins. With proper
board layout techniques, the unique pinout of the
Ultra-Low Input Bias Current LMP7721 will prevent PCB leakage current from
reaching the input pins. Thus system error will be
further reduced.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LMP7721 combines a patented input bias current cancelling circuitry along with an optimized pinout to
provide and ultra-low maximum specified bias current of ±20 fA.
7.2 Functional Block Diagram
7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Ultra-Low Input Bias Current
The LMP7721 has the industry’s lowest specified input bias current. The ultra-low input bias current is typically 3
fA, with a specified limit of ±20 fA at 25°C, ±900 fA at 85°C and ±5 pA at 125°C when VCM = 1 V with a 5-V or a
2.5-V power supply.
7.3.2 Wide Bandwidth at Low-Supply Current
The LMP7721 is a high-performance amplifier that provides a 17-MHz unity gain bandwidth while drawing only
1.3 mA of current. This makes the LMP7721 ideal for wideband amplification in portable applications.
7.3.3 Low Input Referred Noise
The LMP7721 has a low input-referred voltage noise density (6.5 nV at 1 kHz with 5-V supply). Its MOS input
stage ensures a very low input-referred current noise density (0.01 pA/ ).
The low input-referred noise and the ultra-low input bias current make the LMP7721 stand out in maintaining
signal fidelity. This quality makes the LMP7721 a suitable candidate for sensor-based applications.
7.3.4 Low-Supply Voltage
The LMP7721 has performance specified at 2.5-V and 5-V power supplies. The LMP7721 is ensured to be
functional at all supply voltages between 2 V to 5.5 V, for ambient temperatures ranging from 40°C to 125°C.
This means that the LMP7721 has a long operational span over the battery's lifetime. The LMP7721 is also
specified to be functional at 1.8-V supply voltage, for ambient temperatures ranging from 0°C to 125°C. This
makes the LMP7721 ideal for use in low-voltage commercial applications.
7.3.5 Rail-to-Rail Output and Ground Sensing
Rail-to-rail output swing provides the maximum possible output dynamic range. This is particularly important
when operating at low-supply voltages. An innovative positive feedback scheme is created to boost the
LMP7721’s output current drive capability. This allows the LMP7721 to source 30 mA to 40 mA of current at 1.8-
V power supply.
The LMP7721’s input common-mode range includes the negative supply rail which makes direct sensing at
ground possible in single-supply operation.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.6 Unique Pinout
The LMP7721 has been designed with the IN+ and IN, V+and Vpins on opposite sides of the package. There
are isolation pins between IN+ and V, INand V+. This unique pinout makes it easy to guard the LMP7721’s
input. This pinout design reduces the input bias current’s dependence on common mode or supply bias.
The SOIC package features low leakage and it has large pin spacing. This lowers the probability of dust particles
settling down between two pins thus reducing the resistance between the pins which can be a problem.
The two No Connect (N/C) isolation pins are not internally connected and may be tied to the guard trace to
provide down-into-the-package level guarding of the inputs.
7.3.7 Input Protection
The LMP7721 input stage is protected from seeing excessive differential input voltage by a pair of back-to-back
diodes attached between the inputs. This limits the differential voltage and hence prevents phase inversion as
well as any performance drift. These diodes can conduct current when the input signal has a really fast edge,
and, if necessary, should be isolated (using a resistor or a current follower) in such cases. Under normal
feedback operation, the average differential voltage is less than 1 mV and these diodes do not affect the normal
operation of the device. This clamp also limits the use as a comparator, which is not a recommended function for
operational amplifiers.
Figure 44. Input Protection Diodes
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Compensating Input Capacitance
The high-input resistance of the LMP7721 allows the use of large feedback and source resistor values without
losing gain accuracy due to loading. However, the circuit will be especially sensitive to its layout when these
large-value resistors are used.
Figure 45. General Operational Amplifier Circuit
Every amplifier has some capacitance between each input and AC ground, and also some differential
capacitance between the inputs. When the feedback network around an amplifier is resistive, this input
capacitance (along with any additional capacitance due to circuit board traces, the socket, etc.) and the feedback
resistors create a pole in the feedback path. This pole can cause gain "peaking" or outright oscillations.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
In the General Operational Amplifier circuit, Figure 45 the frequency of this pole is:
(1)
where:
CSis the total capacitance at the inverting input, including amplifier input capacitance and any stray
capacitance from the circuit board traces.
RPis the parallel combination of RFand RIN
The typical input capacitance of the LMP7721 is about 11pF. This formula, as well as all formulas derived below,
apply to inverting and non-inverting op amp configurations.
When the feedback resistors are smaller than a few k, the frequency of the feedback pole will be quite high,
since CSis generally less than 15 pF. If the frequency of the feedback pole is much higher than the “ideal”
closed-loop bandwidth (the nominal closed-loop bandwidth in the absence of CS), the pole will have a negligible
effect on stability, as it will add only a small amount of phase shift.
However, if the feedback pole is less than approximately 6 to 10 times the “ideal” 3 dB frequency, a feedback
capacitor, CF, should be connected between the output and the inverting input of the op amp. This condition can
also be stated in terms of the amplifier’s low-frequency noise gain: To maintain stability a feedback capacitor will
probably be needed if

frequency noise gain is represented by the formula

regardless of whether the amplifier is being used in inverting or noninverting mode. Note that a feedback
capacitor is more likely to be needed when the noise gain is low and/or the feedback resistor is large.
If the above condition is met (indicating a feedback capacitor will probably be needed), and the noise gain is
large enough that:

the feedback capacitor should be:

Note that these capacitor values are usually significant smaller than those given by the older, more conservative
formula:
(9)
NOTE
CSconsists of the amplifier’s input capacitance plus any stray capacitance from the circuit
board. CFcompensates for the pole caused by CSand the feedback resistors.
Using the smaller capacitors will give much higher bandwidth with little degradation of transient response. It may
be necessary in any of the above cases to use a somewhat larger feedback capacitor to allow for unexpected
stray capacitance, or to tolerate additional phase shifts in the loop, or excessive capacitive load, or to decrease
the noise or bandwidth, or simply because the particular circuit implementation needs more feedback
capacitance to be sufficiently stable. For example, a printed circuit board’s stray capacitance may be larger or
smaller than the breadboard’s, so the actual optimum value for CFmay be different from the one estimated using
the breadboard. In most cases, the values of CFshould be checked on the actual circuit, starting with the
computed value.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The LMP7721 is specified for operation from 1.8 V to 5.5 V. Many of the specifications apply from –40°C to
125°C. Parameters that can exhibit significant variance with regard to operating voltage or temperature are
presented in the Typical Characteristics section.
8.1.1 Using a Guard
In order to take full advantage of the LMP7721’s ultra-low input bias current, a "Guard" trace is recommended
when designing sub-nanoamp systems.
Figure 46. Guarding Theory
A "Guard" is a driven trace or shield that physically surrounds the input trace and feedback circuitry that is held at
a potential equal to the average input signal potential. Since the input circuitry and the guard are kept at the
same potential, the leakage current between the two nodes is practically zero. The guard is a low-impedance
node, so any external leakages will "leak" into the guard and not into the protected input. One benefit of using a
guard is it cancels the effect of the added stray and cable capacitance at low frequencies (but cannot cancel the
sensor or amplifier input capacitance).
The guard potential may be taken from the inverting input (summing node) in noninverting and buffer
applications. An example of this is shown in Figure 47 If the guarding needs to extend beyond the immediate
local area around the IC, then a buffer should be used to drive the guard to prevent adding additional
capacitance to the inverting node.
Figure 47. Guarding the Noninverting Configuration
The guard potential may be taken from the noninverting input or reference voltage in inverting or transimpedance
applications. An example of this is shown in Figure 48

Application Information (continued)
Figure 48. Guarding the Inverting or Transimpedance Configuration
The gain of the buffer should be slightly less than one to prevent oscillations and should be current limited to
protect against short circuits. The buffer amplifier should also be capable of driving large capacitive loads. To
satisfy these two requirements, a small series output resistor is usually placed on the buffer output in the range
of 100 Ωto 1 kΩ.
For optimum results, the guard should completely enclose the input circuitry within a conductive "cocoon",
including above and below the circuitry. A cover or shield connected to the guard should protect the circuitry
above (or below) the PC board. Do not forget about thru-hole devices (like leaded photodiodes or connectors)
that may expose high-impedance nodes to the opposite side of the board.
The guard trace should not be relied upon as the only method of shielding. A ground plane or shield should
surround and protect the guard from large external leakages and noise, as the guard trace has the potential to
couple noise back into the input. For more information on guarding, please see the articles referenced in Related
Documentation.
8.1.2 Use Triaxial Cable
A triaxial cable or connector is similar to a coaxial cable or connector and is often referred to as “triax”. The
triaxial cable extends the guard protection through the length of the cable by adding a second internal guard
"shield" around the center conductor in addition to the outer ground shield. Figure 49 shows the structure of the
triax connector.
Figure 49. The Structure of a Triax
8.1.3 Properly Clean the Assembly
Proper cleaning of the board is very critical to providing the expected sub-picoamp performance. Properly
cleaning the board and components takes a few extra steps over conventional board cleaning methods. Leftover
flux residue, moisture and cleaning solvent residues will severely degrade the low-current performance.

Application Information (continued)
If using "water soluble" or "no clean" flux, a second cleaning step is needed. These fluxes still leave a film behind
that can attract contaminates and dust. The board should be washed with fresh isopropyl alcohol or methanol
and baked to make sure all remaining traces of moisture are removed from the board. Areas between the
component leads should be scrubbed and areas under surface mount devices thoroughly flushed. The board
should be re-cleaned after any rework to components within the guarded areas. Boards should be handled by the
edges and stored in sealed containers with desiccant.
8.2 Typical Application
The following application examples highlight only a few of the circuits where the LMP7721 can be used.
A CMOS input stage with ultra-low input bias current, negligible input current noise, and low input voltage noise
allows the LMP7721 to provide high fidelity amplification. In addition, the LMP7721 has a 17 MHz gain bandwidth
product, which enables high gain at wide bandwidth. A rail-to-rail output swing at 5.5-V power supply allows
detection and amplification of a wide range of input currents. These properties make the LMP7721 ideal for
transimpedance amplification.
Figure 50. LMP7721 as pH Electrode Amplifier
8.2.1 Design Requirements
The output of a pH electrode is typically 59.16 mV per pH unit at 25°C, for an output range of 414 mV to 414
mV as the pH changes from 0 to 14 at 25°C.

Typical Application (continued)
Figure 51. pH Electrode Transfer Function
The output impedance of a pH electrode is extremely high, ranging from 10 Mto 1000 M. The ultra low input
bias current of the LMP7721 allows the voltage error produced by the input bias current and electrode resistance
to be minimal. For example, the output impedance of the pH electrode used is 10 M, if an op amp with 3 nA of
Ibias is used, the error caused due to this amplifier’s input bias current and the source resistance of the pH
electrode is 30 mV! This error can be greatly reduced to 30 nV by using the LMP7721.
Figure 52. Error Caused by Amplifier’s Input Bias Current and Sensor Source Impedance
8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The output voltage of the pH electrode will range from 54.2 mV/pH at 0°C, to 74.04 mV/pH at 100°C. The
maximum input voltage will then be ±74.04 mV * 7 = ±518.3 mV. Allowing for output swing and offset headroom,
the maximum output swing should be limited to ±2.4V. The amplifier gain would then be 2.4 V / 0.5183 V = 4.6
V/V.
With RF= 3.57 kΩand RG=1kΩ, the gain would be 4.57 V/V.
The output voltage from the pH electrode is fed to the signal conductor of the triax and then sent to the non-
inverting input of the LMP7721. In this application, the inverting input is a low impedance node and hence is used
to drive the LMP7715 which acts as a guard driver. The output of the guard driver is connected to the guard of
the triax through a 100-isolation resistor.
Figure 50 is an example of the LMP7721 used as a pH sensor amplifier.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
For high-sensitivity applications, the power supply rails should be as clean as possible.
Noise on the power supply lines can modulate the tiny capacitance (about 0.5 pF) of the ESD structure on each
input. While this is not a major concern for most applications, charge-sensitive or high-gain, high-impedance
applications can be affected. Common results are power line "hum" or high-frequency switcher "hash" imposed
on the signal.
TI recommends using a very low noise linear regulator and add a dedicated filter network to the LMP7721 power
supply pins consisting of a series resistor of about 100 Ω, and a bypass capacitor of 100 uF or larger. Series
inductors or ferrite beads may be required if high frequency switcher noise is present.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
In order to capitalize on the LMP7721’s ultra-low input bias current, careful circuit layout and assembly are
required. Guarding techniques are highly recommended to reduce parasitic leakage current by isolating the
LMP7721’s input from large voltage gradients across the PC board. A guard is a low-impedance conductor that
surrounds an input line and its potential is raised to the input line’s voltage. The input pins should be fully
guarded as shown in Figure 54. The guard traces should completely encircle the input connections. In addition,
they should be located on both sides of the PCB and be connected together.
To further guard the inputs from the supply pins, the two N/C pins may be connected to the guard trace which
will provide guarding down to the leadframe level.
Solder mask should not cover the input and the guard area including guard traces on either side of the PCB.
Keep switching power supplies and other noise-producing devices away from the input area.
