The several pages of simple circuits in this data sheet The bandwidth of the LT1991 will depend on the gain you demonstrate just how easy the LT1991 is to use. It can select (or more accurately the noise gain resulting from be configured into difference amplifiers, as well as into the gain you select). In the lowest configurable gain of 1, inverting and noninverting single ended amplifiers. The the –3dB bandwidth is limited to 450kHz, with peaking of fact that the resistors and op amp are provided together about 2dB at 280kHz. In the highest configurable gains, in such a small package will often save you board space bandwidth is limited to 32kHz. and reduce complexity for easy probing.
Input Noise The Op Amp
The LT1991 input noise is dominated by the Johnson The op amp internal to the LT1991 is a precision device noise of the internal resistors (√4kTR). Paralleling all with 15µV typical offset voltage and 3nA input bias current. four resistors to the +input gives a 32.1kΩ resistance, The input offset current is extremely low, so matching the for 23nV/√Hz of voltage noise.
