Current at output pin (4) (5) ±30 mA
Current at power supply pin 40 mA
Junction temperature (6) 150 °C
Storage temperature, Tstg −65 150 °C

(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
(3) Limiting input pin current is only necessary for input voltages that exceed absolute maximum input voltage ratings.
(4) Applies to both single supply and split-supply operation. Continuous short circuit operation at elevated ambient temperature can result in
exceeding the maximum allowed junction temperature of 150°C. Output currents in excess of ±30 mA over long term may adversely
affect reliability.
(5) Do not short circuit output to V+, when V+ is greater than 13 V or reliability will be adversely affected.
(6) The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), RθJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient
temperature is PD = (TJ(max) − TA)/RJθA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board.

7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview
The LMC6484C is a quad operational amplifier that offers a low cost, low power solution for applications
requiring multiple operational amplifier stages and rail-to-rail operation. It supports a wide supply range (3 V to 15
V) and excellent amplifier-to-amplifer isolation (150 dB typical). It is ideal for battery-powered signal acquisition
systems requiring highly integrated solutions to achieve efficient layout.

7.2 Functional Block Diagram

7.3 Feature Description


7.3.1 Amplifier Topology
The LMC6484 incorporates specially designed wide-compliance range current mirrors and the body effect to
extend input common-mode range to each supply rail. Complementary paralleled differential input stages, like the
type used in other CMOS and bipolar rail-to-rail input amplifiers, were not used because of their inherent
accuracy problems due to CMRR, crossover distortion, and open-loop gain variation.
The input stage design of the LMC6484 is complemented by an output stage capable of rail-to-rail output swing
even when driving a large load. Rail-to-rail output swing is obtained by taking the output directly from the internal
integrator instead of an output buffer stage.

7.3.2 Input Common-Mode Voltage Range


Unlike Bi-FET amplifier designs, the LMC6484 does not exhibit phase inversion when an input voltage exceeds
the negative supply voltage. Figure 46 shows an input voltage exceeding both supplies with no resulting phase
inversion on the output.

Figure 45. An Input Voltage Signal Exceeds the LMC6484


Power Supply Voltages With No Output Phase Inversion

The absolute maximum input voltage is 300 mV beyond either supply rail at room temperature. Voltages greatly
exceeding this absolute maximum rating, as in Figure 46, can cause excessive current to flow in or out of the
input pins possibly affecting reliability.

Applications that exceed this rating must externally limit the maximum input current to ±5 mA with an input
resistor as shown in Figure 47.

Figure 47. RI Input Current Protection for Voltages Exceeding the Supply Voltage

7.3.3 Rail-to-Rail Output


The approximated output resistance of the LMC6484 is 180-Ω sourcing and 130-Ω sinking at VS = 3 V and 110-Ω
sourcing and 83-Ω sinking at VS = 5 V. Using the calculated output resistance, maximum output voltage swing
can be estimated as a function of load.

7.4 Device Functional Modes


The LMC6482 may be used in applications where each amplifier channel is used independently, or in
applications in which the channels are cascaded. See Typical Application for more information.

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


8.1.1 Upgrading Applications
The LMC6484 quads and LMC6482 duals have industry standard pin outs to retrofit existing applications.
System performance can be greatly increased by the features of the LMC6484. The key benefit of designing in
the LMC6484 is increased linear signal range. Most operational amplifiers have limited input common-mode
ranges. Signals that exceed this range generate a non-linear output response that persists long after the input
signal returns to the common-mode range.
Linear signal range is vital in applications such as filters where signal peaking can exceed input common-mode
ranges resulting in output phase inversion or severe distortion.

8.1.2 Spice Macromodel


A spice macromodel is available for the LMC6484. This model includes accurate simulation of the following:
• Input common-mode voltage range
• Frequency and transient response
• GBW dependence on loading conditions
• Quiescent and dynamic supply current
• Output swing dependence on loading conditions
and many more characteristics as listed on the macromodel disk.

Typical Application (continued)


8.2.1 Design Requirements
• For best performance, ensure that the input voltage swing is between V+ and V-.
• Ensure that the input does not exceed the common-mode input range.
• To reduce the risk of de-stabilizing the output, use resistive isolation on the output when driving capacitive
loads (see Capacitive Load Compensation).
• When large feedback resistors are used, it may be necessary to compensate for parasitic capacitance on the
input (see Compensating for Input Capacitance).

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

8.2.2.1 Capacitive Load Compensation


The LMC6484 can typically directly drive a 100-pF load with VS = 15 V at unity gain without oscillating. The unity
gain follower is the most sensitive configuration. Direct capacitive loading reduces the phase margin of
operational amplifiers. The combination of the output impedance of the operational amplifier and the capacitive
load induces phase lag. This results in either an under-damped pulse response or oscillation.
Capacitive load compensation can be accomplished using resistive isolation as shown in Figure 49. This simple
technique is useful for isolating the capacitive input of multiplexers and A/D converters.

Figure 49. Resistive Isolation of a 330-pF Capacitive Load

Figure 50. Pulse Response of the LMC6484 Circuit in Figure 49

Improved frequency response is achieved by indirectly driving capacitive loads as shown in Figure 51.

Typical Application (continued)

Figure 51. LMC6484 Noninverting Amplifier, Compensated to Handle a 330-pF Capacitive Load

R1 and C1 serve to counteract the loss of phase margin by feeding forward the high-frequency component of the
output signal back to the inverting input of the amplifier, thereby preserving phase margin in the overall feedback
loop. The values of R1 and C1 are experimentally determined for the desired pulse response. The resulting pulse
response can be seen in Figure 52.

Figure 52. Pulse Response of LMC6484 Circuit in Figure 51

8.2.2.2 Compensating for Input Capacitance


It is quite common to use large values of feedback resistance with amplifiers that have ultra-low input current,
like the LMC6484. Large feedback resistors can react with small values of input capacitance due to transducers,
photodiodes, and circuit board parasitics to reduce phase margins.

Typical Application (continued)

Figure 53. Canceling the Effect of Input Capacitance

The effect of input capacitance can be compensated for by adding a feedback capacitor. The feedback capacitor
(as in Figure 53), Cf, is first estimated by Equation 1:
1 1
³
2pR1 CIN 2pR2 Cf
or
R1 CIN £ R2 Cf (1)
which typically provides significant overcompensation. Printed circuit board stray capacitance may be larger or
smaller than that of a breadboard, so the actual optimum value for Cf may be different. The values of Cf should
be checked on the actual circuit. (Refer to the LMC660 Quad CMOS Amplifier data sheet (SNOSBZ3) for a more
detailed discussion.)

8.2.2.3 Offset Voltage Adjustment


Offset voltage adjustment circuits are illustrated in Figure 54 and Figure 55. Large value resistances and
potentiometers are used to reduce power consumption while providing typically ±2.5 mV of adjustment range,
referred to the input, for both configurations with VS = ±5 V.

In Figure 70 dielectric absorption and leakage is minimized by using a polystyrene or polyethylene hold

input current of the LMC6484 has a negligible effect on droop.

Low power, single supply data acquisition system solutions are provided by buffering the ADC12038 with the
LMC6484 (Figure 73). Capable of using the full supply range, the LMC6484 does not require input signals to be
scaled down to meet limited common-mode voltage ranges. The LMC6484 CMRR of 82 dB maintains integral
linearity of a 12-bit data acquisition system to ±0.325 LSB. Other rail-to-rail input amplifiers with only 50 dB of
CMRR will degrade the accuracy of the data acquisition system to only 8 bits.

8.3.2 Instrumentation Circuits
The LMC6484 has the high input impedance, large common-mode range and high CMRR needed for designing
instrumentation circuits. Instrumentation circuits designed with the LMC6484 can reject a larger range of
common-mode signals than most in-amps. This makes instrumentation circuits designed with the LMC6484 an
excellent choice for noisy or industrial environments. Other applications that benefit from these features include
analytic medical instruments, magnetic field detectors, gas detectors, and silicon-based transducers.
A small valued potentiometer is used in series with Rg to set the differential gain of the 3-opamp instrumentation
circuit in Figure 74. This combination is used instead of one large valued potentiometer to increase gain trim
accuracy and reduce error due to vibration.

Figure 74. Low-Power 3-Opamp Instrumentation Amplifier

A 2-opamp instrumentation amplifier designed for a gain of 100 is shown in Figure 75. Low sensitivity trimming is
made for offset voltage, CMRR and gain. Low cost and low power consumption are the main advantages of this
2-opamp circuit.
Higher frequency and larger common-mode range applications are best facilitated by a 3-opamp instrumentation
amplifier.

9 Power Supply Recommendations


The LMC6482 can be operated over a supply range of 3 V to 15 V. To achieve noise immunity as appropriate to
the application, it is important to use good printed circuit board layout practices for power supply rails and planes,
as well as using bypass capacitors connected between the power supply pins and ground.

10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines


10.1.1 Printed-Circuit-Board Layout for High-Impedance Work
It is generally recognized that any circuit which must operate with less than 1000 pA of leakage current requires
special layout of the PC board. when one wishes to take advantage of the ultra-low input current of the
LMC6484, typically less than 20 fA, it is essential to have an excellent layout. Fortunately, the techniques of
obtaining low leakages are quite simple. First, the user must not ignore the surface leakage of the PC board,
even though it may sometimes appear accept- ably low, because under conditions of high humidity or dust or
contamination, the surface leakage will be appreciable.
To minimize the effect of any surface leakage, lay out a ring of foil completely surrounding the LMC6484 inputs
and the terminals of capacitors, diodes, conductors, resistors, relay terminals, etc., connected to the operational
amplifier inputs, as in Figure 78. To have a significant effect, guard rings should be placed in both the top and
bottom of the PC board. This PC foil must then be connected to a voltage which is at the same voltage as the
amplifier inputs, since no leakage current can flow between two points at the same potential. For example, a PC
board trace-to-pad resistance of 1012, which is normally considered a very large resistance, could leak 5 pA if
the trace were a 5-V bus adjacent to the pad of the input. This would cause a 250 times degradation from the
actual performance of the LMC6484. However, if a guard ring is held within 5 mV of the inputs, then even a
resistance of 1011 would cause only 0.05 pA of leakage current. See Figure 76 for typical connections of guard
rings for standard operational amplifier configurations.

Figure 76. Typical Connections of Guard Rings

The designer should be aware that when it is inappropriate to lay out a PC board for the sake of just a few
circuits, there is another technique which is even better than a guard ring on a PC board: Do not insert the input
pin of the amplifier into the board at all, but bend it up in the air and use only air as an insulator. Air is an
excellent insulator. In this case you may have to forego some of the advantages of PC board construction, but
the advantages are sometimes well worth the effort of using point-to-point up-in-the-air wiring. See Figure 77.

Note: (Input pins are lifted out of PC board and soldered directly to components. All other pins connected to PC board.)
