  High Speed Amplifier Techniques &mdash AN47
  PDF, 5.3 Mb, File published: Aug 1, 1991
  This application note, subtitled "A Designer's Companion for Wideband Circuitry," is intended as a reference source for designing with fast amplifiers. Approximately 150 pages and 300 figures cover frequently encountered problems and their possible causes. Circuits include a wide range of amplifiers, filters, oscillators, data converters and signal conditioners. Eleven appended sections discuss related topics including oscilloscopes, probe selection, measurement and equipment considerations, and breadboarding techniques.

  High Speed Amplifier Techniques
  A Designer’s Companion for Wideband Circuitry
  Jim Williams PREFACE
  This publication represents the largest LTC commitment
  to an application note to date. No other application note
  absorbed as much effort, took so long or cost so much.
  This level of activity is justified by our belief that high speed
  monolithic amplifiers greatly interest users.
  Historically, monolithic amplifiers have represented packets of inexpensive, precise and controllable gain. They
  have partially freed engineers from the constraints and
  frustrations of device level design. Monolithic operational
  amplifiers have been the key to practical implementation
  of high level analog functions. As good as they are, one
  missing element in these devices has been speed.
  Devices presently coming to market are addressing monolithic amplifiers’ lack of speed. They bring with them the
  ease of use and inherent flexibility of op amps. When Philbrick Researches introduced the first mass produced
  op amp in the 1950’s (K2-W) they knew it would be used.
  What they couldn’t possibly know was just how widely,
  and how many different types of applications there were.
  As good a deal as the K2-W was (I paid $24.00 for mine or rather, my father did), monolithic devices are far better.
  The combination of ease of use, economy, precision and …

  Component and Measurement Advances Ensure 16-Bit DAC Settling Time &mdash AN74
  PDF, 980 Kb, File published: Jul 1, 1998
  DAC DC specifications are relatively easy to verify. AC specifications require more sophisticated approaches to produce reliable information. In particular, the settling time of the DAC and its output amplifier is extraordinarily difficult to determine to 16-bit resolution. This application note presents methods for 16-bit DAC settling time measurement and compares results. Appendices discuss oscilloscope overdrive, frequency compensation, circuit and optimization techniques, layout, power stages and a historical perspective of precision DACs.

  Component and Measurement Advances Ensure
  16-Bit DAC Settling Time
  The art of timely accuracy
  Jim Williams
  Introduction
  Instrumentation, waveform generation, data acquisition,
  feedback control systems and other application areas are
  beginning to utilize 16-bit data converters. More specifically, 16-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) have
  seen increasing use. New components (see Components
  for 16-Bit Digital-to-Analog Conversion, page 2) have
  made 16-bit DACs a practical design alternative1. These
  ICs provide 16-bit performance at reasonable cost compared to previous modular and hybrid technologies. The
  DC and AC specifications of the monolithic DAC’s
  approach or equal previous converters at significantly
  lower cost.
  DAC Settling Time
  DAC DC specifications are relatively easy to verify. Measurement techniques are well understood, albeit often
  tedious. AC specifications require more sophisticated
  approaches to produce reliable information. In particular,
  the settling time of the DAC and its output amplifier is
  extraordinarily difficult to determine to 16-bit resolution. …

  Updated Operational Amplifier Selection Guide for Optimum Noise Performance &mdash DN140

  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. …
