Designing Linear Circuits for 5V Single Supply Operation
Jim Williams
In predominantly digital systems it is often necessary
to include linear circuit functions. Traditionally, separate
power supplies have been used to run the linear components (see Box, “Linear Power Supplies—Past, Present,
and Future”).
Recently, there has been increasing interest in powering
linear circuits directly from the 5V logic rail. The logic
rail is a difficult place for analog components to function.
The high amplitude broadband current and voltage noise
generated by logic clocking makes analog circuit operation difficult. (See Box, “Using Logic Supplies for Linear
Functions”.)
Generally speaking, analog circuitry which must achieve
very high performance levels should be driven from dedicated supplies. The difficulties encountered in maintaining
the lowest possible levels of noise and drift in an analog
system are challenging enough without contending with
a digitally corrupted power supply.
Many analog applications, however, can be successfully
implemented using the logic supply. Combining components intended to provide high performance from the 167Ω Q1 –

Photomultipliers (PMT), avalanche photodiodes (APD), ultrasonic transducers, capacitance microphones, radiation detectors and similar devices require high voltage, low current bias. Additionally, the high voltage must be pristinely free of noise; well under a millivolt is a common requirement with a few hundred microvolts sometimes necessary. Normally, switching regulator configurations cannot achieve this performance level without employing special techniques. One aid to achieving low noise is that load currents rarely exceed 5mA. This freedom permits output filtering methods that are usually impractical.

Jim Williams
Monolithic, modular and hybrid technologies have been
used to implement voltage-to-frequency converters. A
number of types are commercially available and overall
performance is adequate to meet many requirements. In
many cases, however, very high performance or special
characteristics are required and available units will not work.
In these instances V→F circuits specifically optimized for
the desired parameters(s) are required. This application
note presents examples of circuits which offer substantially improved performance over commercially available
V→Fs. Various approaches (see Box Section, “V→F

Risk Assessment Advice for High Reliability Amplifiers
Tim Regan and James Mahoney Introduction
In long life, high reliability systems, supplied power is
provided only to essential circuitry. As a result many of
the unpowered circuits may have voltages applied to inputs and outputs without proper supply biasing. As part
of any diligent system safety risk assessment, a question
often arises; will the unpowered components be damaged,
degraded, or impair circuit performance under these
abnormal operating conditions?
The purpose of this article is to provide advice for what
lies within the pins of several common amplifiers used in
these applications. Most of the amplifiers of interest are the
radiation hard amplifiers so indicated with a device prefix
of RH. Another amplifier, the LT6016, is particularly robust
with over, under and reversed polarity voltage conditions
and is included for reference.
With no power applied to the amplifier, forcing a voltage
between two pins will cause a current to flow. The magnitude of this current differs from pin to pin and device to
device. A curve tracer is used to show the current vs voltage
characteristic when overdriving specific pin combinations.
Referencing these curve trace plots will provide an indication of the magnitude of current flow for a particular …

Power Gain Stages for Monolithic Amplifiers
Jim Williams
Most monolithic amplifiers cannot supply more than a few
hundred milliwatts of output power. Standard IC processing
techniques set device supply levels at 36V, limiting available output swing. Additionally, supplying currents beyond
tens of milliamperes requires large output transistors and
causes undesirable IC power dissipation.
Many applications, however, require greater output power
than most monolithic amplifiers will deliver. When voltage
or current gain (or both) is needed, a separate output
stage is necessary. The power gain stage, sometimes
called a “booster”, is usually placed within the monolithic
amplifier’s feedback loop, preserving the IC’s low drift and
stable gain characteristics. 150mA Output Stage
Figure 1a shows the LTВ®1010 monolithic 150mA current
booster placed within the feedback loop of a fast FET
amplifier. At lower frequencies, the buffer is within the
feedback loop so that its offset voltage and gain errors
are negligible. At higher frequencies, feedback is through
Cf, so that phase shift from the load capacitance acting
against the buffer output resistance does not cause loop …

Application Considerations for an
Instrumentation Lowpass Filter
Nello Sevastopoulos
Description of this, the value of the (R C) product is critically related
to the filter passband flatness and to the filter stability.
The internal circuitry of the LTC1062 is driven by a clock
which also determines the п¬Ѓlter cutoff frequency. For a
maximally flat amplitude response, the clock should be
100 times the desired cutoff frequency and the (R, C)
should be chosen such as: The LTCВ®1062 is a versatile, DC accurate, instrumentation
lowpass п¬Ѓlter with gain and phase that closely approximate
a 5th order Butterworth п¬Ѓlter. The LTC1062 is quite different from presently available lowpass switched-capacitor
п¬Ѓlters because it uses an external (R, C) to isolate the
IC from the input signal DC path, thus providing DC accuracy. Figure 1 illustrates the architecture of the circuit.
The output voltage is sensed through an internal buffer,
then applied to an internal switched-capacitor network
which drives the bottom plate of an external capacitor to
form an input-to-output 5th order lowpass п¬Ѓlter. The input
and output appear across an external resistor and the IC
part of the overall п¬Ѓlter handles only the AC path of the
signal. A buffered output is also provided (Figure 1) and …

Applications often require an amplifier that has extremely high performance in several areas. For example, high speed and DC precision are often needed. If a single device cannot simultaneously achieve the desired characteristics, a composite amplifier made up of two (or more) devices can be configured to do the job.

Composite Amplifiers
Jim Williams
Amplifier design, regardless of the technology utilized, is
a study in compromise. Device limitations make it difficult
for a particular amplifier to achieve optimal speed, drift,
bias current, noise and power output specifications. As
such, various amplifier families emphasizing one or more
of these areas have evolved. Some amplifiers are very good
attempts at doing everything well, but the best achievable
performance п¬Ѓgures are limited to dedicated designs. designed with little attention to DC biasing considerations
if a separate stabilizing stage is employed.
Figure 1 shows a composite made up of an LTВ®1012 low drift
device and an LT1022 high speed amplifier. The overall circuit is a unity-gain inverter, with the summing node located
at the junction of three 10k resistors. The LT1012 monitors
this summing node, compares it to ground and drives the
LT1022’s positive input, completing a DC stabilizing loop
around the LT1022. The 10k-300pF time constant at the
LT1012 limits its response to low frequency signals. The
LT1022 handles high frequency inputs while the LT1012
stabilizes the DC operating point. The 4.7k-220О© divider
at the LT1022 prevents excessive input overdrive during …

Micropower Circuits for Signal Conditioning
Jim Williams
Low power operation of electronic apparatus has become
increasingly desirable. Medical, remote data acquisition,
power monitoring and other applications are good candidates for battery driven, low power operation. Micropower
analog circuits for transducer-based signal conditioning
present a special class of problems. Although micropower
ICs are available, the interconnection of these devices to
form a functioning micropower circuit requires care. (See
Box Sections, “Some Guidelines for Micropower Design
and an Example” and “Parasitic Effects of Test Equipment
on Micropower Circuits.”) In particular, trade-offs between
signal levels and power dissipation become painful when
performance in the 10-bit to 12-bit area is desirable. Additionally, many transducers and analog signals produce +V inherently small outputs, making micropower requirements complicate an already difficult situation. Despite the
problems, design of such circuits is possible by combining
high performance micropower ICs with appropriate circuit
techniques.

September 1987 Switching Regulators for Poets
A Gentle Guide for the Trepidatious
Jim Williams
The above title is not happenstance and was arrived at after
considerable deliberation. As a linear IC manufacturer, it is
our goal to encourage users to design and build switching
regulators. A problem is that while everyone agrees that
working switching regulators are a good thing, everyone
also agrees that they are difficult to get working. Switching
regulators, with their high efficiency and small size, are
increasingly desirable as overall package sizes shrink.
Unfortunately, switching regulators are also one of the
most difficult linear circuits to design. Mysterious modes,
sudden, seemingly inexplicable failures, peculiar regulation characteristics and just plain explosions are common
occurrences. Diodes conduct the wrong way. Things get
hot that shouldn’t. Capacitors act like resistors, fuses
don’t blow and transistors do. The output is at ground, and
the ground terminal shows volts of noise.
Added to this poisonous brew is the regulator’s feedback
loop, sampled in nature and replete with uncertain phase
shifts. Everything, of course, varies with line and load
conditions— and the time of day, or so it seems. In the face …

Thermocouple Measurement
Jim Williams
Introduction Thermocouples in Perspective In 1822, Thomas Seebeck, an Estonian physician, accidentally joined semicircular pieces of bismuth and copper
(Figure 1) while studying thermal effects on galvanic arrangements. A nearby compass indicated a magnetic disturbance. Seebeck experimented repeatedly with different
metal combinations at various temperatures, noting relative
magnetic п¬Ѓeld strengths. Curiously, he did not believe that
electric current was flowing, and preferred to describe the
effect as “thermo-magnetism.” He published his results in
a paper, “Magnetische Polarisation der Metalle und Erze
durch Temperatur-Differenz” (see references). Temperature is easily the most commonly measured
physical parameter. A number of transducers serve temperature measuring needs and each has advantages and
considerations. Before discussing thermocouple-based
measurement it is worthwhile putting these sensors in
perspective. Figure 2’s chart shows some common contact
temperature sensors and lists characteristics. Study reveals
thermocouple strengths and weaknesses compared to
other sensors. In general, thermocouples are inexpensive,
wide range sensors. Their small size makes them fast and
their low output impedance is a benefit. The inherent voltage output eliminates the need for excitation. Subsequent investigation has shown the “Seebeck Effect”
to be fundamentally electrical in nature, repeatable, and
quite useful. Thermocouples, by far the most common …

Some Thoughts on DC/DC Converters
Jim Williams and Brian Huffman
INTRODUCTION
Many systems require that the primary source of DC power
be converted to other voltages. Battery driven circuitry is
an obvious candidate. The 6V or 12V cell in a laptop computer must be converted to different potentials needed for
memory, disc drives, display and operating logic. In theory,
AC line powered systems should not need DC/DC converters
because the implied power transformer can be equipped
with multiple secondaries. In practice, economics, noise
requirements, supply bus distribution problems and other
constraints often make DC/DC conversion preferable. A
common example is logic dominated, 5V powered systems
utilizing В±15V driven analog components.
The range of applications for DC/DC converters is large,
with many variations. Interest in converters is commensurately quite high. Increased use of single supply powered
systems, stiffening performance requirements and battery
operation have increased converter usage.
Historically, efficiency and size have received heavy emphasis. In fact, these parameters can be significant, but
often are of secondary importance. A possible reason
behind the continued and overwhelming attention to size …

Applications for a Switched-Capacitor Instrumentation

CMOS analog IC design is largely based on manipulation
of charge. Switches and capacitors are the elements used
to control and distribute the charge. Monolithic п¬Ѓlters, data
converters and voltage converters rely on the excellent
characteristics of IC CMOS switches. Because of the importance of switches in their circuits, CMOS designers have
developed techniques to minimize switch induced errors,
particularly those associated with stray capacitance and
switch timing. Until now, these techniques have been used
only in the internal construction of monolithic devices. A
new device, the LTCВ®1043, makes these switches available
for board-level use. Multi-pole switching and a self-driven,
non-overlapping clock allow the device to be used in circuits
which are impractical with other switches. Conceptually, the LTC1043 is simple. Figure 1 details its
features. The oscillator, free-running at 200kHz, drives a
non-overlapping clock. Placing a capacitor from Pin 16 to
ground shifts the oscillator frequency downward to any
desired point. The pin may also be driven from an external
source, synchronizing the switches to external circuitry. …

little if any prior knowledge of this software library or its

In the past few years, SPICE simulations have really begun

that IC vendors are now making macromodels for op amps
available to their customers.

for simulations, viewing this situation in terms of which
model to use. Designers no longer need worry about
whether the third party supplier’s model can really cut it. …
