  Using the LTC Op Amp Macromodels &mdash AN48
  PDF, 297 Kb, File published: Nov 8, 1991
  LTC's op amp macromodels are described in detail, along with the theory behind each model and complete schematics of each topology. Extended modeling topics are discussed, such as phase/frequency response modifications and asymmetric slew rate for JFET op amp models. LTC's macromodels are optimized for accuracy and fast simulation times. Simulation times can be further reduced by using streamlining techniques found throughout AN48.

  Application Note 48
  November 1991
  Using the LTC Op Amp Macromodels
  Getting the Most from SPICE and the LTC Library
  Walt Jung INTRODUCTION This application note is an overview discussion of the
  Linear Technology SPICE macromodel library. It assumes
  little if any prior knowledge of this software library or its
  history. However, it does assume familiarity with both the
  analog simulation program SPICE (or one of its many
  derivatives), and modern day op amps, including bipolar,
  JFET, and MOSFET amplifier technologies.
  Some Preliminary SPICE Facts of Life
  In the past few years, SPICE simulations have really begun
  to capture a high level of attention on the part of analog
  circuit designers. Perhaps this is due to more affordable
  high performance computers, or perhaps the time for
  simulation is now upon us. In any event, the bottom line is
  that IC vendors are now making macromodels for op amps
  available to their customers.
  For the analog circuit designer, there can be no better fate
  for simulations, viewing this situation in terms of which
  model to use. Designers no longer need worry about
  whether the third party supplier’s model can really cut it. …

  Operational Amplifier Selection Guide for
  Optimum Noise Performance – Design Note 140
  Frank Cox
  Eight years ago, George Erdi wrote a very useful Design
  Note (DN6) that presented information to aid in the
  selection of op amps for optimum noise performance,
  in both graphical and tabular form. Design Note 140 is
  an update of DN6. It covers new low noise op amps as
  well as some high speed op amps. Although a great deal
  has changed in eight years, especially in electronics,
  noise is still a critical issue in op amp circuit design
  and the LTВ®1028 is still the lowest noise op amp for
  low source impedance applications.
  The amount of noise an op amp circuit will produce
  is determined by the device used, the total resistance
  in the circuit, the bandwidth of the measurement, the
  temperature of the circuit and the gain of the circuit. A
  convenient п¬Ѓgure of merit for the noise performance
  of an op amp is the spectral density or spot noise. This
  is obtained by normalizing the measurement to a unit
  of bandwidth. Here the unit is 1Hz and the noise is reported as “nV/√Hz.” The noise in a particular application
  bandwidth can be calculated by multiplying the spot
  noise by the square root of the application bandwidth. …

  Noise Calculations1 in Op Amp Circuits – Design Note 15
  Alan Rich
  Noise calculations in op amp circuits are one of the most
  confused calculations that an analog engineer must
  perform.
  One cannot just look at noise specifications; the total op
  amp circuit including resistors and operating frequency
  range must be included in calculations for circuit noise. A
  “low” noise amplifier in one circuit will become a “high”
  noise amplifier in another circuit.
  As part of this Design Note, an IBM-PC2 or compatible
  computer program, NOISE, has been written to perform
  the noise calculations. This program allows the user to
  calculate circuit noise using LTC op amps, determine the
  best LTC op amp for a low noise application, display the
  noise data for LTC op amps, calculate resistor noise, and
  calculate circuit noise using noise specs for any op amp.
  At the end of this Design Note there are detailed operating
  instructions for the computer program NOISE.
  To calculate noise for an op amp circuit, one must consider the op amp voltage and current noise density and
  1/f corner frequency, the frequency range of interest, and
  the resistor noise.
  The most comprehensive specification for voltage or current noise is the noise density frequency response curve …

  Operational Amplifier Selection Guide for Optimum Noise
  Performance – Design Note 3
  George Erdi
  The LTВ®1028 is the lowest noise op amp available today.
  Its voltage noise is less than that of a 50О© resistor. In
  other words, if the LT1028 is operated with source resistors in excess of 50О© , resistor noise will dominate. If the
  application requires large source resistors, the LT1028’s
  relatively high current noise will limit performance, and
  other op amps will provide lower overall noise. The table below lists which op amp gives minimum total
  noise for a specified equivalent source resistance. A two
  step procedure should be followed to optimize noise: In general, the total noise of any op amp (referred to the
  input) is given by: The table actually has two sets of devices: one for low
  frequency (instrumentation), one for wideband applications. The slight differences between the two columns
  occur because voltage and current noise increase at low
  frequencies (below the so-called 1/f corner) while resistor
  noise is flat with frequency. total noise = (voltage noise) + (resistor noise) + (current noise R )
