7 / 9 page ® 7 OPA128 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION OFFSET VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT The OPA128 offset voltage is laser-trimmed and will require no further trim for most applications. As with most amplifi- ers, externally trimming the remaining offset can change drift performance by about 0.3 µV/°C for each 100µV of adjusted effort. Note that the trim (Figure 1) is similar to operational amplifiers such as HA-5180 and AD515. The OPA128 can replace many other amplifiers by leaving the external null circuit unconnected. The amplifier case should be connected to any input shield or guard via pin 8. This insures that the amplifier itself is fully surrounded by guard potential, minimizing both leakage and noise pickup (see Figure 2). Triboelectric charge (static electricity generated by friction) can be a troublesome noise source from cables connected to the input of an electrometer amplifier. Special low-noise cable will minimize this effect but the optimum solution is to mount the signal source directly at the electrometer input with short, rigid, wiring to preclude microphonic noise generation. TESTING Accurately testing the OPA128 is extremely difficult due to its high level of performance. Ordinary test equipment may not be able to resolve the amplifier’s extremely low bias current. Inaccurate bias current measurements can be due to: 1. Test socket leakage 2. Unclean package 3. Humidity or dew point condensation 4. Circuit contamination from fingerprints or anti-static treatment chemicals 5. Test ambient temperature 6. Load power dissipation BIFET® National Semiconductor Corp. FIGURE 2.

Most BIFET® amplifiers can be destroyed by the loss of –V CC. Because of its dielectric isolation, no special protection is needed on the OPA128. Of course, the differential and common-mode voltage limits should be observed. Static damage can cause subtle changes in amplifier input characteristics without necessarily destroying the device. In precision operational amplifiers (both bipolar and FET types), this may cause a noticeable degradation of offset voltage and drift. Static protection is recommended when handling any preci- sion IC operational amplifier. GUARDING AND SHIELDING As in any situation where high impedances are involved, careful shielding is required to reduce “hum” pickup in input leads. If large feedback resistors are used, they should also be shielded along with the external input circuitry. Leakage currents across printed circuit boards can easily exceed the bias current of the OPA128. To avoid leakage problems, it is recommended that the signal input lead of the OPA128 be wired to a Teflon standoff. If the input is to be soldered directly into a printed circuit board, utmost care must be used in planning the board layout. A “guard” pattern should completely surround the high impedance input leads and should be connected to a low impedance point which is at the signal input potential. |
