LM6181 100 mA, 100 MHz Current Feedback Amplifier
1 Features(1) 3 Description
The LM6181 current-feedback amplifier offers an
1 Slew Rate: 2000 V/μsunparalleled combination of bandwidth, slew-rate,
Settling Time (0.1%): 50 ns and output current. The amplifier can directly drive up
Characterized for Supply Ranges: to 100 pF capacitive loads without oscillating and a
± 5 V and ±15 V 10-V signal into a 50-Ωor 75-Ωback-terminated coax
cable system over the full industrial temperature
Low Differential Gain and Phase Error: range. This represents a radical enhancement in
0.05%, 0.04° output drive capability for an 8-pin PDIP high-speed
High Output Drive: ±10 V into 100 Ωamplifier making it ideal for video applications.
Ensured Bandwidth and Slew Rate Built on TI's advanced high-speed VIP™ II (Vertically
Improved Performance Over EL2020, OP160, Integrated PNP) process, the LM6181 employs
AD844, LT1223 and HA5004 current-feedback providing bandwidth that does not
vary dramatically with gain; 100 MHz at AV=1,
60 MHz at AV=10. With a slew rate of 2000V/μs,
(1) Typical, unless otherwise noted 2nd harmonic distortion of 50 dBc at 10 MHz and
settling time of 50 ns (0.1%) the LM6181 dynamic
2 Applications performance makes it ideal for data acquisition, high
speed ATE, and precision pulse amplifier
Coax Cable Driver applications.

7 Typical Applications
7.1 Current Feedback Topology
For a conventional voltage feedback amplifier the resulting small-signal bandwidth is inversely proportional to the
desired gain to a first order approximation based on the gain-bandwidth concept. In contrast, the current
feedback amplifier topology, such as the LM6181, transcends this limitation to offer a signal bandwidth that is
relatively independent of the closed-loop gain. Figure 76 and Figure 77 illustrate that for closed loop gains of 1
and 5 the resulting pulse fidelity suggests quite similar bandwidths for both configurations.

SNOS634C MAY 1998REVISED SEPTEMBER 2014
Current Feedback Topology (continued)
The closed-loop bandwidth of the LM6181 depends on the feedback resistance, Rf. Therefore, RSand not Rf,
must be varied to adjust for the desired closed-loop gain as in Figure 78.
Figure 78. RSIs Adjusted to Obtain
the Desired Closed Loop Gain, AVCL
7.2 Power Supply Bypassing and Layout Considerations
A fundamental requirement for high-speed amplifier design is adequate bypassing of the power supply. It is
critical to maintain a wideband low-impedance to ground at the amplifiers supply pins to insure the fidelity of high
speed amplifier transient signals. 10 μF tantalum and 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitors are recommended for
each supply pin. The bypass capacitors should be placed as close to the amplifier pins as possible (0.5or less).
7.3 Feedback Resistor Selection: Rf
Selecting the feedback resistor, Rf, is a dominant factor in compensating the LM6181. For general applications
the LM6181 will maintain specified performance with an 820Ωfeedback resistor. Although this value will provide
good results for most applications, it may be advantageous to adjust this value slightly. Consider, for instance,
the effect on pulse responses with two different configurations where both the closed-loop gains are 2 and the
feedback resistors are 820Ωand 1640Ω, respectively. Figure 79 and Figure 80 illustrate the effect of increasing
Rfwhile maintaining the same closed-loop gain—the amplifier bandwidth decreases. Accordingly, larger
feedback resistors can be used to slow down the LM6181 (see 3 dB bandwidth vs Rftypical curves) and reduce
overshoot in the time domain response. Conversely, smaller feedback resistance values than 820Ωcan be used
to compensate for the reduction of bandwidth at high closed loop gains, due to 2nd order effects. For example
Figure 81 illustrates reducing Rfto 500Ωto establish the desired small signal response in an amplifier configured
for a closed loop gain of 25.

7.4 Slew Rate Considerations
The slew rate characteristics of current feedback amplifiers are different than traditional voltage feedback
amplifiers. In voltage feedback amplifiers slew rate limiting or non-linear amplifier behavior is dominated by the
finite availability of the 1st stage tail current charging the compensation capacitor. The slew rate of current
feedback amplifiers, in contrast, is not constant. Transient current at the inverting input determines slew rate for
both inverting and non-inverting gains. The non-inverting configuration slew rate is also determined by input
stage limitations. Accordingly, variations of slew rates occur for different circuit topologies.

7.5 Driving Capacitive Loads
The LM6181 can drive significantly larger capacitive loads than many current feedback amplifiers. Although the
LM6181 can directly drive as much as 100 pF without oscillating, the resulting response will be a function of the
feedback resistor value. Figure 83 illustrates the small-signal pulse response of the LM6181 while driving a 50 pF
load. Ringing persists for approximately 70 ns. To achieve pulse responses with less ringing either the feedback
resistor can be increased (see Figure 23,Figure 25, and Figure 26), or resistive isolation can be used (10 Ω–51
Ωtypically works well). Either technique, however, results in lowering the system bandwidth.
Figure 85 illustrates the improvement obtained with using a 47Ωisolation resistor.

7.6 Capacitive Feedback
For voltage feedback amplifiers it is quite common to place a small lead compensation capacitor in parallel with
feedback resistance, Rf. This compensation serves to reduce the amplifier's peaking in the frequency domain
which equivalently tames the transient response. To limit the bandwidth of current feedback amplifiers, do not
use a capacitor across Rf. The dynamic impedance of capacitors in the feedback loop reduces the amplifier's
stability. Instead, reduced peaking in the frequency response, and bandwidth limiting can be accomplished by
adding an RC circuit, as illustrated in Figure 87.

8.1.1.1 Overdrive Recovery
When the output or input voltage range of a high speed amplifier is exceeded, the amplifier must recover from an
overdrive condition. The typical recovery times for open-loop, closed-loop, and input common-mode voltage
range overdrive conditions are illustrated in Figure 90,Figure 92, and Figure 93, respectively.
The open-loop circuit of Figure 89 generates an overdrive response by allowing the ±0.5V input to exceed the
linear input range of the amplifier. Typical positive and negative overdrive recovery times shown in Figure 90 are
5 ns and 25 ns, respectively.
