Applications Hint
Amplifier Topolgy
The topology chosen for the LMC6034, shown in
Figure 1,
is
unconventional (compared to general-purpose op amps) in
that the traditional unity-gain buffer output stage is not used;
instead, the output is taken directly from the output of the in-
tegrator, to allow a larger output swing. Since the buffer tra-
ditionally delivers the power to the load, while maintaining
high op amp gain and stability, and must withstand shorts to
either rail, these tasks now fall to the integrator.
As a result of these demands, the integrator is a compound
affair with an embedded gain stage that is doubly fed forward
(via C
f
and Cff) by a dedicated unity-gain compensation
driver. In addition, the output portion of the integrator is a
push-pull configuration for delivering heavy loads. While
sinking current the whole amplifier path consists of three
gain stages with one stage fed forward, whereas while
sourcing the path contains four gain stages with two fed
forward.
