APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Layout and Passive Components
The inputs can withstand transient differential input volt- The LT1355/LT1356 amplifiers are easy to use and tolerant ages up to 10V without damage and need no clamping of less than ideal layouts. For maximum performance (for or source resistance for protection. Differential inputs, example, fast 0.01% settling) use a ground plane, short however, generate large supply currents (tens of mA) as lead lengths, and RF-quality bypass capacitors (0.01µF to required for high slew rates. If the device is used with 0.1µF). For high drive current applications use low ESR sustained differential inputs, the average supply current will bypass capacitors (1µF to 10µF tantalum). increase, excessive power dissipation will result and the part may be damaged.

As the capacitive load increases, both the bandwidth and The inputs are buffered by complementary NPN and phase margin decrease so there will be peaking in the PNP emitter followers which drive an 800Ω resistor. frequency domain and in the transient response.

This current is the differential input voltage divided by Each of the LT1355/LT1356 inputs is the base of an NPN R1, so the slew rate is proportional to the input.

For example, a 10V output step in a gain of 10 has Because of variation in the matching of NPN and PNP beta, only a 1V input step, whereas the same output step in the polarity of the input bias current can be positive or unity gain has a 10 times greater input step.
