AD780
TURN-ON TIME
OUTPUT CHANGE – 50mV/DIV
The time required for the output voltage to reach its final value
within a specified error band is defined as the turn-on settling
time. The two major factors that affect this are the active circuit
settling time and the time for the thermal gradients on the chip
to stabilize. Typical settling performance is shown in Figure 11
following. The AD780 settles to within 0.1% of its final value
within 10
µs.

The dynamic load may be resistive and capacitive. For example
the load may be connected via a long capacitive cable. Figure 13
following shows the performance of the AD780 driving a
1000 pF, 0 mA to 10 mA load.

The output stage of the AD780 has been designed to provide
superior static and dynamic load regulation.
