GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8631 brings precision and bandwidth to the SOT-23-5
package at single supply voltages as low as 1.8 V and low supply
current. The small package makes it possible to place the AD8631
next to sensors, reducing external noise pickup.
The AD8631 and AD8632 are rail-to-rail input and output bipolar
amplifiers with a gain bandwidth of 4 MHz and typical voltage
offset of 0.8 mV from a 1.8 V supply. The low supply current and
the low supply voltage makes these parts ideal for battery-powered
applications. The 3 V/µs slew rate makes the AD8631/AD8632 a
good match for driving ASIC inputs, such as voice codecs.
The AD8631/AD8632 is specified over the extended industrial
(–40C to +125C) temperature range. The AD8631 single is
available in 5-lead SOT-23 surface-mount packages. The dual
AD8632 is available in 8-lead SOIC and µSOIC packages.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD863x is a rail-to-rail operational amplifier that can operate
at supply voltages as low as 1.8 V. This family is fabricated using
Analog Devices’ high-speed complementary bipolar process, also
called XFCB. The process trench isolates each transistor to mini-
mize parasitic capacitance, thereby allowing high-speed perfor-
mance. Figure 19 shows a simplified schematic of the AD863x
family.
The input stage consists of two parallel complementary differen-
tial pair: one NPN pair (Q1 and Q2) and one PNP pair (Q3 and
Q4). The voltage drops across R7, R8, R9, and R10 are kept low
for rail-to-rail operation. The major gain stage of the op amp is a
double-folded cascode consisting of transistors Q5, Q6, Q8, and
Q9. The output stage, which also operates rail-to-rail, is driven by
Q14. The transistors Q13 and Q10 act as level-shifters to give
more headroom during 1.8 V operation.
As the voltage at the base of Q13 increases, Q18 starts to sink
current. When the voltage at the base of Q13 decreases I8 flows
through D16 and Q15 increasing the VBE of Q17, then Q20
sources current.
The output stage also furnishes gain, which depends on the load
resistance, since the output transistors are in common emitter
configuration. The output swing when sinking or sourcing 100 µA
is 35 mV maximum from each rail.
The input bias current characteristics depend on the common-
mode voltage (see Figure 4). As the input voltage reaches about
1 V below V
CC
, the PNP pair (Q3 and Q4) turns off.
The 1 k input resistor R1 and R2, together with the diodes D7
and D8, protect the input pairs against avalanche damage.
The AD863x family exhibits no phase reversal as the input signal
exceeds the supply by more than 0.6 V. Excessive current can flow
through the input pins via the ESD diodes D1-D2 or D3-D4, in the
event their ~0.6 V thresholds are exceeded. Such fault currents must
be limited to 5 mA or less by the use of external series resistance(s).
LOW VOLTAGE OPERATION
Battery Voltage Discharge
The AD8631 operates at supply voltages as low as 1.8 V. This
amplifier is ideal for battery-powered applications since it can
operate at the end of discharge voltage of most popular batteries.
Table I lists the Nominal and End-of-Discharge Voltages of
several typical batteries.
AD8631/AD8632
–9–REV. 0
The rail-to-rail feature of the AD8631 can be observed over the
supply voltage range, 1.8 V to 5 V. Traces are shown offset for
clarity.
INPUT BIAS CONSIDERATION
The input bias current (I
B
) is a non-ideal, real-life parameter that
affects all op amps. I
B
can generate a somewhat significant offset
voltage. This offset voltage is created by I
B
when flowing through
the negative feedback resistor R
F
. If I
B
is 250 nA (worst case), and
R
F
is 100 k, the corresponding generated offset voltage is 25 mV
(V
OS
= I
B
R
F
).
Obviously the lower the R
F
the lower the generated voltage offset.
Using a compensation resistor, R
B
, as shown in Figure 21, can
minimize this effect. With the input bias current minimized we
still need to be aware of the input offset current (I
OS
) which will
generate a slight offset error. Figure 21 shows three different
configurations to minimize I
B
-induced offset errors.

RAIL-TO-RAIL INPUT AND OUTPUT
The AD8631 features an extraordinary rail-to-rail input and
output with supply voltages as low as 1.8 V. With the amplifier’s
supply set to 1.8 V, the input can be set to 1.8 V p-p, allowing the
output to swing to both rails without clipping. Figure 20 shows a
scope picture of both input and output taken at unity gain, with a
frequency of 1 kHz, at V

DRIVING CAPACITIVE LOADS
Capacitive Load vs. Gain
Most amplifiers have difficulty driving capacitance due to degra-
dation of phase margin caused by additional phase lag from the
capacitive load. Higher capacitance at the output can increase the
amount of overshoot and ringing in the amplifier’s step response
and could even affect the stability of the device. The value of
capacitive load that an amplifier can drive before oscillation varies
with gain, supply voltage, input signal, temperature, among oth-
ers. Unity gain is the most challenging configuration for driving
capacitive load. However, the AD8631 offers reasonably good
capacitive driving ability. Figure 22 shows the AD8631’s ability to
drive capacitive loads at different gains before instability occurs.

will increase and the unity gain bandwidth of the device will
decrease. Figure 24 shows an example of the AD8631 in a non-
inverting configuration driving a 10 k resistor and a 600 pF
capacitor placed in parallel, with a square wave input set to a
frequency of 90 kHz and unity gain.

By connecting a series R–C from the output of the device to
ground, known as the “snubber” network, this ringing and over-
shoot can be significantly reduced. Figure 25 shows the network
setup, and Figure 26 shows the improvement of the output
response with the “snubber” network added.

TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION + NOISE
The AD863x family offers a low total harmonic distortion, which
makes this amplifier ideal for audio applications. Figure 27 shows
a graph of THD + N, which is ~0.02% @ 1 kHz, for a 1.8 V supply.
At unity gain in an inverting configuration the value of the Total
Harmonic Distortion + Noise stays consistently low over all volt-
ages supply ranges.

AD8632 Turn-On Time
The low voltage, low power AD8632 features an extraordinary turn
on time. This is about 500 ns for V
SY
= 5 V, which is impressive
considering the low supply current (300 µA typical per amplifier).
Figure 28 shows a scope picture of the AD8632 with both channels
configured as followers. Channel A has an input signal of 2.5 V and
channel B has the input signal at ground. The top waveform shows
the supply voltage and the bottom waveform reflects the response
of the amplifier at the output of Channel A.

A MICROPOWER REFERENCE VOLTAGE GENERATOR
Many single-supply circuits are configured with the circuit biased
to one-half of the supply voltage. In these cases, a false-ground
reference can be created by using a voltage divider buffered by an
amplifier. Figure 28 shows the schematic for such a circuit.
The two 1 M resistors generate the reference voltages while
drawing only 0.9 µA of current from a 1.8 V supply. A capacitor
connected from the inverting terminal to the output of the op
amp provides compensation to allow a bypass capacitor to be
connected at the reference output. This bypass capacitor helps
establish an ac ground for the reference output.

Direct Access Arrangement for Telephone Line Interface
Figure 31 illustrates a 1.8 V transmit/receive telephone line interface
for 600 transmission systems. It allows full duplex transmission of
signals on a transformer-coupled 600 line in a differential manner.
Amplifier A1 provides gain that can be adjusted to meet the modem
output drive requirements. Both A1 and A2 are configured to apply
the largest possible signal on a single supply to the transformer.
Amplifier A3 is configured as a difference amplifier for two reasons:
(1) It prevents the transmit signal from interfering with the receive
signal and (2) it extracts the receive signal from the transmission line
for amplification by A4. A4’s gain can be adjusted in the same
manner as A1’s to meet the modem’s input signal requirements.
Standard resistor values permit the use of SIP (Single In-line
Package) format resistor arrays. Couple this with the AD8631/

SPICE Model
The SPICE model for the AD8631 amplifier is available and
can be downloaded from the Analog Devices’ web site at
http://www.analog.com. The macro-model accurately simulates
a number of AD8631 parameters, including offset voltage, input
common-mode range, and rail-to-rail output swing. The output
voltage versus output current characteristics of the macro-model
is identical to the actual AD8631 performance, which is a critical
feature with a rail-to-rail amplifier model. The model also accurately
simulates many ac effects, such as gain-bandwidth product, phase
margin, input voltage noise, CMRR and PSRR versus frequency,
and transient response. Its high degree of model accuracy makes the
AD8631 macro-model one of the most reliable and true-to-life
models available for any amplifier.
