LMV301
Low Input Bias Current, 1.8V Op Amp w/ Rail-to-Rail
Output
General Description
The LMV301 CMOS operational amplifier is ideal for single
supply, low voltage operation with a guaranteed operating
voltage range from 1.8V to 5V. The low input bias current of
less than 0.182pAtypical, eliminates input voltage errors that
may originate from small input signals. This makes the
LMV301 ideal for electrometer applications requiring low
input leakage such as sensitive photodetection transimped-
ance amplifiers and sensor amplifiers. The LMV301 also
features a rail-to-rail output voltage swing in addition to a
input common-mode range that includes ground. The
LMV301 will drive a 600resistive load and up to 1000pF
capacitive load in unity gain follower applications. The low
supply voltage also makes the LMV301 well suited for
portable two-cell battery systems and single cell Li-Ion
systems.
The LMV301 exhibits excellent speed-power ratio, achieving
1MHz at unity gain with low supply current. The high DC gain
of 100dB makes it ideal for other low frequency applications.
The LMV301 is offered in a space saving SC-70 package,
which is only 2.0X2.1X1.0mm. It is also similar to the
LMV321 except the LMV301 has a CMOS input.

Application Hints
Compensating Input Capacitance
The high input resistance of the LMV301 op amp allows the
use of large feedback and source resistor values without
losing gain accuracy due to loading. However, the circuit will
be especially sensitive to its layout when these large value
resistors are used.
Every amplifier has some capacitance between each input
and AC ground, and also some differential capacitance
between the inputs. When the feedback network around an
amplifier is resistive, this input capacitance (along with any
additional capacitance due to circuit board traces, the
socket, etc.) and the feedback resistors create a pole in the
feedback path. In the following General OperationalAmplifier
circuit,
Figure 1
, the frequency of this pole is
where C
S
is the total capacitance at the inverting input,
including amplifier input capacitance and any stray
capacitance from the IC socket (if one is used), circuit board
traces, etc., and R
P
is the parallel combination of R
F
and R
IN
.
This formula, as well as all formulae derived below, apply to
inverting and non-inverting op amp configurations.
When the feedback resistors are smaller than a few k, the
frequency of the feedback pole will be quite high, since C
S
is
generally less than 10pF. If the frequency of the feedback
pole is much higher than the “ideal” closed-loop bandwidth
(the nominal closed-loop bandwidth in the absence of C
S
),
the pole will have a negligible effect on stability, as it will add
only a small amount of phase shift.
However, if the feedback pole is less than approximately 6 to
10 times the “ideal” −3dB frequency, a feedback capacitor,
C
F
, should be connected between the output and the
inverting input of the op amp. This condition can also be
stated in terms of the amplifier’s low frequency noise gain. To
maintain stability a feedback capacitor will probably be
needed if
where
is the amplifier’s low frequency noise gain and GBW is the
amplifier’s gain bandwidth product. An amplifier’s low
frequency noise gain is represented by the formula
regardless of whether the amplifier is being used in inverting
or non-inverting mode. Note that a feedback capacitor is
more likely to be needed when the noise gain is low and/or
the feedback resistor is large.
If the above condition is met (indicating a feedback capacitor
will probably be needed), and the noise gain is large enough
that:
the following value of feedback capacitor is recommended:
If
the feedback capacitor should be:
Note that these capacitor values are usually significantly
smaller than those given by the older, more conservative
formula:
Using the smaller capacitor will give much higher bandwidth
with little degradation of transient response. It may be
necessary in any of the above cases to use a somewhat
larger feedback capacitor to allow for unexpected stray
capacitance, or to tolerate additional phase shifts in the loop,
or excessive capacitive load, or to decrease the noise or
bandwidth, or simply because the particular circuit
implementation needs more feedback capacitance to be
sufficiently stable. For example, a printed circuit board’s
stray capacitance may be larger or smaller than the
breadboard’s, so the actual optimum value for C
F
may be
different from the one estimated using the breadboard. In
most cases, the values of C
F
should be checked on the
actual circuit, starting with the computed value.
20019306
CSconsists of the amplifier’s input capacitance plus any stray capacitance
from the circuit board and socket. CFcompensates for the pole caused by
CSand the feedback resistors.

Capacitive Load Tolerance
Like many other op amps, the LMV301 may oscillate when
its applied load appears capacitive. The threshold of
oscillation varies both with load and circuit gain. The
configuration most sensitive to oscillation is a unity gain
follower. The load capacitance interacts with the op amp’s
output resistance to create an additional pole. If this pole
frequency is sufficiently low, it will degrade the op amp’s
phase margin so that the amplifier is no longer stable. As
shown in
Figure 2
, the addition of a small resistor (50to
100) in series with the op amp’s output, and a capacitor
(5pF to 10pF) from inverting input to output pins, returns the
phase margin to a safe value without interfering with lower
frequency circuit operation. Thus, larger values of
capacitance can be tolerated without oscillation. Note that in
all cases, the output will ring heavily when the load
capacitance is near the threshold for oscillation.
Capacitive load driving capability is enhanced by using a pull
up resistor to V
+
(
Figure 3
). Typically a pull up resistor
conducting 500µA or more will significantly improve
capacitive load responses. The value of the pull up resistor
must be determined based on the current sinking capability
of the amplifier with respect to the desired output swing.
Open loop gain of the amplifier can also be affected by the
pull up resistor.
PRINTED-CIRCUIT-BOARD LAYOUT
FOR HIGH-IMPEDANCE WORK
It is generally recognized that any circuit which must operate
with less than 100pA of leakage current requires special
layout of the PC board. When one wishes to take advantage
of the low bias current of the LMV301, typically less than
0.182pA, it is essential to have an excellent layout.
Fortunately, the techniques for obtaining low leakages are
quite simple. First, the user must not ignore the surface
leakage of the PC board, even though it may sometimes
appear acceptable low, because under conditions of the high
humidity or dust or contamination, the surface leakage will
be appreciable. To minimized the effect of any surface
leakage, lay out a ring of foil completely surrounding the
LMV301’s inputs and the terminals of capacitors, diodes,
conductors, resistors, relay terminals, etc. connected to the
op amp’s inputs. See
Figure 4
. To have a significant effect,
guard rings should be placed on both the top and bottom of
the PC board. The PC foil must then be connected to a
voltage which is at the same voltage as the amplifier inputs,
since no leakage current can flow between two points at the
same potential. For example, a PC board trace-to-pad
resistance of 10
12
, which is normally considered a very
large resistance, could leak 5pA if the trace were a 5V bus
adjacent to the pad of an input. This would cause a 100
times degradation from the LMV301’s actual performance.
However, if a guard ring is held within 5mV of the inputs, then
even a resistance of 10
11
would cause only 0.05pA of
leakage current, or perhaps a minor (2:1) degradation of the
amplifier performance. See Figure 5a, Figure 5b, Figure 5c
for typical connections of guard rings for standard op amp
configurations. If both inputs are active and at high
impedance, the guard can be tied to ground and still provide
some protection; see Figure 5d.

Application Hints (Continued)
The designer should be aware that when it is inappropriate
to lay out a PC board for the sake of just a few circuits, there
is another technique which is even better than a guard ring
on a PC board: Don’t insert the amplifier’s input pin into the
board at all, but bend it up in the air and use only air as an
insulator. Air is an excellent insulator. In this case you may
have to forego some of the advantages of PC board
construction, but the advantages are sometimes well worth
the effort of using point-to-point up-in-the-air wiring. See
Figure 6
