more stable at higher gains. Alternatively, a small resistor (10Ω to 20Ω) can be put in series with the output to isolate The small-signal bandwidth of the LT1259/ LT1260 are set the capacitive load from the amplifier output. This has the by the external feedback resistors and the internal junction advantage that the amplifier bandwidth is only reduced capacitors. As a result, the bandwidth is a function of the when the capacitive load is present. The disadvantage is supply voltage, the value of the feedback resistor, the that the gain is a function of the load resistance. closed-loop gain and the load resistor. The LT1259/LT1260 have been optimized for ±5V supply operation and have a

Current feedback amplifiers require resistive feedback The offset voltage changes about 500µV per volt of from the output to the inverting input for stable operation. supply mismatch.
