OP249
As seen in Figure 51, the OP249 has an extremely fast recovery
of 247 ns (to 0.01%) for a 1 mA load transient. The performance
makes it an ideal amplifier for data acquisition systems.

The combination of high speed and excellent dc performance of
the OP249 makes it an ideal amplifier for 12-bit data acquisition
systems. Examining the circuit in Figure 53, one amplifier in the
OP249 provides a stable −5 V reference voltage for the VREF input of
the ADC912. The other amplifier in the OP249 performs high
speed buffering of the input of the ADC.

By examining the worst-case transient voltage error at the AIN
node of the ADC, it is shown that the OP249 recovers in less
than 100 ns (see Figure 52). The fast recovery is due to both the
wide bandwidth and low dc output impedance of the OP249.
