EXPLANATION OF TEST LEVELS

Test Level

I

– 100% production tested.

II – 100% production tested at +25

°C, and sample tested at

specified temperatures. AC testing of “A” grade devices

done on sample basis.

III – Sample tested only.

IV – Parameter is guaranteed by design and characterization

testing.

V

– Parameter is a typical value only.

VI – All devices are 100% production tested at +25

°C. 100%

production tested at temperature extremes for extended

temperature devices; sample tested at temperature ex-

tremes for commercial/industrial devices.

Chip Layout

THEORY OF OPERATION

The AD9621 is a wide bandwidth, unity gain stable voltage

feedback amplifier. Since its open-loop frequency response fol-

lows the conventional 6 dB/octave roll-off, its gain bandwidth

product is basically constant. Increasing its closed-loop gain re-

sults in a corresponding decrease in small signal bandwidth. The

AD9621 typically maintains a 55 degree unity loop gain phase

margin. This high margin minimizes the effects of signal and

noise peaking.

Feedback Resistor Choice

At minimum stable gain (+1), the AD9621 provides optimum

occur due to lead (input, feedback) inductance and parasitic ca-

pacitance. For settling accuracy to 0.1% or less, this resistor

should not be required if layout guidelines are closely followed.

This estimation loses accuracy for gains approaching +2/–1 or

lower due to the amplifier’s damping factor. For these “low

culated value. See Closed Loop BW plots.
