Low Voltage, Low Power, R-to-R Output, 5 MHz Op Amps
General Description
The LMV821/LMV822/LMV824 bring performance and
economy to low voltage / low power systems. Witha5MHz
unity-gain frequency and a guaranteed 1.4 V/µs slew rate,
the quiescent current is only 220 µA/amplifier (2.7 V). They
provide rail-to-rail (R-to-R) output swing into heavy loads
(600 Guarantees). The input common-mode voltage range
includes ground, and the maximum input offset voltage is
3.5mV (Guaranteed). They are also capable of comfortably
driving large capacitive loads (refer to the application notes
section).
The LMV821 (single) is available in the ultra tiny SC70-5
package, which is about half the size of the previous title
holder, the SOT23-5.
Overall, the LMV821/LMV822/LMV824 (Single/Dual/Quad)
are low voltage, low power, performance op amps, that can
be designed into a wide range of applications, at an eco-
nomical price.

Application Note
This application note is divided into two sections: design
considerations and Application Circuits.
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
This section covers the following design considerations:
1. Frequency and Phase Response Considerations
2. Unity-Gain Pulse Response Considerations
3. Input Bias Current Considerations
FREQUENCY AND PHASE RESPONSE
CONSIDERATIONS
The relationship between open-loop frequency response
and open-loop phase response determines the closed-loop
stability performance (negative feedback). The open-loop
phase response causes the feedback signal to shift towards
becoming positive feedback, thus becoming unstable. The
further the output phase angle is from the input phase angle,
the more stable the negative feedback will operate. Phase
Margin (φ
m
) specifies this output-to-input phase relationship
at the unity-gain crossover point. Zero degrees of phase-
margin means that the input and output are completely in
phase with each other and will sustain oscillation at the
unity-gain frequency.
The AC tables show φ
m
for a no load condition. But φ
m
changes with load. The Gain and Phase margin vs Fre-
quency plots in the curve section can be used to graphically
determine the φ
m
for various loaded conditions. To do this,
examine the phase angle portion of the plot, find the phase
margin point at the unity-gain frequency, and determine how
far this point is from zero degree of phase-margin. The larger
the phase-margin, the more stable the circuit operation.
The bandwidth is also affected by load. The graphs of Figure
1and Figure 2 provide a quick look at how various loads
affect the φ
m
and the bandwidth of the LMV821/822/824
family. These graphs show capacitive loads reducing both
φ
m
and bandwidth, while resistive loads reduce the band-
width but increase the φ
m
. Notice how a 600resistor can be
added in parallel with 220 picofarads capacitance, to in-
crease the φ
m
20˚(approx.), but at the price of about a 100
kHz of bandwidth.
Overall, the LMV821/822/824 family provides good stability
for loaded condition.

Various Loads

Application Note (Continued)
UNITY GAIN PULSE RESPONSE CONSIDERATION
A pull-up resistor is well suited for increasing unity-gain,
pulse response stability. For example, a 600 pull-up resis-
tor reduces the overshoot voltage by about 50%, when
driving a 220 pF load. Figure 3 shows how to implement the
pull-up resistor for more pulse response stability.
Higher capacitances can be driven by decreasing the value
of the pull-up resistor, but its value shouldn’t be reduced
beyond the sinking capability of the part. An alternate ap-
proach is to use an isolation resistor as illustrated in Figure 4
.
Figure 5 shows the resulting pulse response from a LMV824,
while driving a 10,000 pF load through a 20isolation
resistor.
INPUT BIAS CURRENT CONSIDERATION
Input bias current (I
B
) can develop a somewhat significant
offset voltage. This offset is primarily due to I
B
flowing
through the negative feedback resistor, R
F
. For example, if I
B
is 90 nA (max @room) and R
F
is 100 k, then an offset of 9
mV will be developed (V
OS
=I
B
xR
F
).Using a compensation
resistor (R
C
), as shown in Figure 6, cancels out this affect.
But the input offset current (I
OS
) will still contribute to an
offset voltage in the same manner - typically 0.05 mV at
room temp.

4. Tri-level Voltage Detector
TELEPHONE-LINE TRANSCEIVER
The telephone-line transceiver of Figure 7 provides a full-
duplexed connection through a PCMCIA, miniature trans-
former. The differential configuration of receiver portion
(UR), cancels reception from the transmitter portion (UT).
Note that the input signals for the differential configuration of
UR, are the transmit voltage (V
T
) and V
T
/2. This is because
R
match
is chosen to match the coupled telephone-line imped-
ance; therefore dividing V
T
by two (assuming R1 >>
R
match
). The differential configuration of UR has its resistors
chosen to cancel the V
T
and V
T
/2 inputs according to the
following equation:
Note that Cr is included for canceling out the inadequacies of
the lossy, miniature transformer. Refer to application note
AN-397 for detailed explanation.
“SIMPLE” MIXER (AMPLITUDE MODULATOR)
The mixer of Figure 8 is simple and provides a unique form
of amplitude modulation. Vi is the modulation frequency
(F
M
), while a +3V square-wave at the gate of Q1, induces a
carrier frequency (F
C
). Q1 switches (toggles) U1 between
inverting and non-inverting unity gain configurations. Offset-
ting a sine wave above ground at Vi results in the oscillo-
scope photo of Figure 9.
The simple mixer can be applied to applications that utilize
the Doppler Effect to measure the velocity of an object. The
difference frequency is one of its output frequency compo-
nents. This difference frequency magnitude (/F
M
-F
C
/) is the
key factor for determining an object’s velocity per the Dop-
pler Effect. If a signal is transmitted to a moving object, the
reflected frequency will be a different frequency. This differ-
ence in transmit and receive frequency is directly propor-
tional to an object’s velocity.
DUAL AMPLIFIER ACTIVE FILTERS (DAAFs)
The LMV822/24 bring economy and performance to DAAFs.
The low-pass and the high-pass filters of Figure 10 and
Figure 11 (respectively), offer one key feature: excellent
sensitivity performance. Good sensitivity is when deviations
in component values cause relatively small deviations in a
filter’s parameter such as cutoff frequency (Fc). Single am-
plifier active filters like the Sallen-Key provide relatively poor
sensitivity performance that sometimes cause problems for
high production runs; their parameters are much more likely
to deviate out of specification than a DAAF would. The
DAAFs of Figure 10 and Figure 11 are well suited for high
volume production.

Application Note (Continued)
Table 1 provides sensitivity measurements for a 10 Mload
condition. The left column shows the passive components
for the 3 kHz low-pass DAAF. The third column shows the
components for the 300 Hz high-pass DAAF. Their respec-
tive sensitivity measurements are shown to the right of each
component column. Their values consists of the percent
change in cutoff frequency (Fc) divided by the percent
change in component value. The lower the sensitivity value,
the better the performance.
Each resistor value was changed by about 10 percent, and
this measured change was divided into the measured
change in Fc. A positive or negative sign in front of the
measured value, represents the direction Fc changes rela-
tive to components’ direction of change. For example, a
sensitivity value of negative 1.2, means that for a 1 percent
increase in component value, Fc decreases by 1.2 percent.
Note that this information provides insight on how to fine
tune the cutoff frequency, if necessary. It should be also
noted that R
4
and R
5
of each circuit also caused variations in
the pass band gain. Increasing R
4
by ten percent, increased
the gain by 0.4 dB, while increasing R
5
by ten percent,
decreased the gain by 0.4 dB.

Active filters are also sensitive to an op amp’s parameters
-Gain and Bandwidth, in particular. The LMV822/24 provide
a large gain and wide bandwidth. And DAAFs make excel-
lent use of these feature specifications.
Single Amplifier versions require a large open-loop to
closed-loop gain ratio - approximately 50 to 1, at the Fc of
the filter response. Figure 12 shows an impressive photo-
graph of a network analyzer measurement (hp3577A). The
measurement was taken from a 300 kHz version of Figure
10. At 300 kHz, the open-loop to closed-loop gain ratio @Fc
is about 5 to 1. This is 10 times lower than the 50 to 1 “rule
of thumb” for Single Amplifier Active Filters.
In addition to performance, DAAFs are relatively easy to
design and implement. The design equations for the low-
pass and high-pass DAAFs are shown below. The first two
equation calculate the Fc and the circuit Quality Factor (Q)
for the LPF (Figure 10). The second two equations calculate
the Fc and Q for the HPF (Figure 11).

Application Note (Continued)
To simplify the design process, certain components are set
equal to each other. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11. These
equal component values help to simplify the design equa-
tions as follows:
To illustrate the design process/implementation, a 3 kHz,
Butterworth response, low-pass filter DAAF (Figure 10)is
designed as follows:
1. Choose C

=C=1nF
2. Choose R
4
=R
5
=1k
3. Calculate R
a
and R
2
for the desired Fc as follows:
4. Calculate R
3
for the desired Q. The desired Q for a
Butterworth (Maximally Flat) response is 0.707 (45 degrees
into the s-plane). R
3
calculates as follows:
Notice that R
3
could also be calculated as 0.707 of R
a
or R
2.
The circuit was implemented and its cutoff frequency mea-
sured. The cutoff frequency measured at 2.92 kHz.
The circuit also showed good repeatability. Ten different
LMV822 samples were placed in the circuit. The correspond-
ing change in the cutoff frequency was less than a percent.
TRI-LEVEL VOLTAGE DETECTOR
The tri-level voltage detector of Figure 13 provides a type of
window comparator function. It detects three different input
voltage ranges: Min-range, Mid-range, and Max-range. The
output voltage (V
O
)isatV
CC
for the Min-range. V
O
is
clamped at GND for the Mid-range. For the Max-range, V
O
is
at V
ee
.Figure 14 shows a V
O
vs. V

oscilloscope photo per
the circuit of Figure 13.
Its operation is as follows: V
I
deviating from GND, causes
the diode bridge to absorb I
IN
to maintain a clamped condi-
tion (V
O
= 0V). Eventually, I
IN
reaches the bias limit of the
diode bridge. When this limit is reached, the clamping effect
stops and the op amp responds open loop. The design
equation directly preceding Figure 14, shows how to deter-
mine the clamping range. The equation solves for the input
voltage band on each side GND. The mid-range is twice this
voltage band.
