For a given load capacitance, adjust R
S
to optimize the
tradeoff between settling time and bandwidth. In general,
reducing R
S
will increase bandwidth at the expense of ad-
ditional overshoot and ringing.
Overdrive Recovery
An overdrive condition is defined as the point when ei-
ther one of the inputs or the output exceed their specified
voltage range. Overdrive recovery is the time needed for
the amplifier to return to its normal or linear operating
point. The recovery time varies, based on whether the
input or output is overdriven and by how much the range
is exceeded. The CLCx050 will typically recover in less
than 30ns from an overdrive condition. Figure 6 shows the
CLC1050 in an overdriven condition.

Driving Capacitive Loads
Increased phase delay at the output due to capacitive load-
ing can cause ringing, peaking in the frequency response,
and possible unstable behavior. Use a series resistance, R
S
,
between the amplifier and the load to help improve stability
and settling performance. Refer to Figure 5.
