(1) Electrical table values apply only for factory testing conditions at the temperature indicated. Factory testing conditions result in very
limited self-heating of the device such that TJ= TA. No ensured specification of parametric performance is indicated in the electrical
tables under conditions of internal self-heating where TJ> TA. Absolute maximum ratings indicate junction temperature limits beyond
which the device may be permanently degraded, either mechanically or electrically.
(2) All limits are specified by testing or statistical analysis.
(3) Typical Values represent the most likely parametric norm.
(4) Slew rate is the slowest of the rising and falling slew rates.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LMH6624 and LMH6626 devices are very wide gain bandwidth, ultra low noise voltage feedback operational
amplifiers. Their excellent performances enable applications such as medical diagnostic ultrasound, magnetic
tape & disk storage and fiber-optics to achieve maximum high frequency signal-to-noise ratios. The set of
characteristic plots in Typical Characteristics illustrates many of the performance trade-offs. The following
discussion will demonstrate the proper selection of external components to achieve optimum system
performance.
7.2 Feature Description
7.2.1 Bias Current Cancellation
To cancel the bias current errors of the non-inverting configuration, the parallel combination of the gain setting
(Rg) and feedback (Rf) resistors should equal the equivalent source resistance (Rseq) as defined in Figure 47.
Combining this constraint with the non-inverting gain equation also seen in Figure 47, allows both Rfand Rgto
be determined explicitly from the following equations:
Rf= AVRseq (1)
Rg= Rf/(AV-1) (2)
When driven from a 0-source, such as the output of an op amp, the non-inverting input of the LMH6624 and
LMH6626 should be isolated with at least a 25-series resistor.
As seen in Figure 48, bias current cancellation is accomplished for the inverting configuration by placing a
resistor (Rb) on the non-inverting input equal in value to the resistance seen by the inverting input (Rf||(Rg+Rs)).
Rbshould to be no less than 25 for optimum LMH6624 and LMH6626 performance. A shunt capacitor can
minimize the additional noise of Rb.

7.2.2 Total Input Noise vs. Source Resistance
To determine maximum signal-to-noise ratios from the LMH6624 and LMH6626, an understanding of the
interaction between the amplifier’s intrinsic noise sources and the noise arising from its external resistors is
necessary.
Figure 49 describes the noise model for the non-inverting amplifier configuration showing all noise sources. In
addition to the intrinsic input voltage noise (en) and current noise (in= in+= in) source, there is also thermal
voltage noise (et=(4KTR)) associated with each of the external resistors. Equation 3 provides the general form
for total equivalent input voltage noise density (eni). Equation 4 is a simplification of Equation 3 that assumes
Rf||Rg= Rseq for bias current cancellation. Figure 50 illustrates the equivalent noise model using this assumption.
Figure 51 is a plot of eni against equivalent source resistance (Rseq) with all of the contributing voltage noise
sources of Equation 4. This plot gives the expected eni for a given (Rseq) which assumes Rf||Rg= Rseq for bias
current cancellation. The total equivalent output voltage noise (eno) is eni*AV.

Feature Description (continued)
Figure 50. Noise Model with Rf||Rg= Rseq
(4)
As seen in Figure 51, eni is dominated by the intrinsic voltage noise (en) of the amplifier for equivalent source
resistances below 26 Ω. Between 26 and 3.1 k, eni is dominated by the thermal noise (et=(4kT(2Rseq)) of
the equivalent source resistance Rseq. Above 3.1 k, eni is dominated by the amplifier’s current noise (in=2
inRseq). When Rseq = 283 (that is, Rseq = en/2 in) the contribution from voltage noise and current noise of
LMH6624 and LMH6626 is equal. For example, configured with a gain of +20V/V giving a 3 dB of 90 MHz and
driven from Rseq = Rf || Rg = 25 Ω(eni = 1.3 nVHz from Figure 51), the LMH6624 produces a total output noise
voltage (eni × 20 V/V × (1.57 × 90 MHz)) of 309 μVrms.
Figure 51. Voltage Noise Density vs. Source Resistance
If bias current cancellation is not a requirement, then Rf|| Rgneed not equal Rseq. In this case, according to
Equation 3, Rf|| Rgshould be as low as possible to minimize noise. Results similar to Equation 3 are obtained
for the inverting configuration of Figure 48 if Rseq is replaced by Rband Rgis replaced by Rg+ Rs. With these
substitutions, Equation 3 will yield an eni referred to the non-inverting input. Referring eni to the inverting input is
easily accomplished by multiplying eni by the ratio of non-inverting to inverting gains.

7.2.3 Noise Figure
Noise Figure (NF) is a measure of the noise degradation caused by an amplifier.
(5)
The Noise Figure formula is shown in Equation 5. The addition of a terminating resistor RT, reduces the external
thermal noise but increases the resulting NF. The NF is increased because RTreduces the input signal amplitude
thus reducing the input SNR.
(6)
The noise figure is related to the equivalent source resistance (Rseq) and the parallel combination of Rfand Rg.
To minimize "Noise Figure":
Minimize Rf|| Rg

ROPT is the point at which the NF curve reaches a minimum and is approximated by:

7.2.4 Low Noise Integrator
The LMH6624 and LMH6626 devices implement a deBoo integrator shown in Figure 52. Positive feedback
maintains integration linearity. The low input offset voltage of the LMH6624 and LMH6626 devices and matched
inputs allow bias current cancellation and provide for very precise integration. Keeping RGand RSlow helps
maintain dynamic stability.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
A Transimpedance amplifier is used to convert the small output current of a photodiode to a voltage, while
maintaining a near constant voltage across the photodiode to minimize non-linearity. Extracting the small signal
requires high gain and a low noise amplifier, and therefore, the LMH6624 and LMH6626 devices are ideal for
such an application in order to maximize SNR. Furthermore, because of the large gain (RFvalue) needed, the
device used must be high speed so that even with high noise gain (due to the interaction of the feedback resistor
and photodiode capacitance), bandwidth is not heavily impacted.
Figure 47 implements a high-speed, single supply, low-noise Transimpedance amplifier commonly used with
photo-diodes. The transimpedance gain is set by RF.

Typical Application (continued)
8.2.1 Design Requirements
Figure 58 shows the Noise Gain (NG) and transfer function (I-V Gain). As with most Transimpedance amplifiers,
it is required to compensate for the additional phase lag (Noise Gain zero at fZ) created by the total input
capacitance: CD(diode capacitance) + CCM (LMH6624 CM input capacitance) + CDIFF (LMH6624 DIFF input
capacitance) looking into RF. This is accomplished by placing CFacross RFto create enough phase lead (Noise
Gain pole at fP) to stabilize the loop.
Figure 58. Transimpedance Amplifier Noise Gain and Transfer Function
8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The optimum value of CFis given by Equation 8 resulting in the I-V -3dB bandwidth shown in Equation 9, or
around 124 MHz in this case, assuming GBWP = 1.5 GHz, CCM (LMH6624 CM input capacitance) = 0.9 pF, and
CDIFF (LMH6624 DIFF input capacitance) = 2 pF. This CFvalue is a “starting point” and CFneeds to be tuned for
the particular application as it is often less than 1 pF and thus is easily affected by board parasitics.
Optimum CFValue:
(8)
Resulting -3dB Bandwidth:
(9)
Equation 10 provides the total input current noise density (ini) equation for the basic Transimpedance
configuration and is plotted against feedback resistance (RF) showing all contributing noise sources in Figure 59.
The plot indicates the expected total equivalent input current noise density (ini) for a given feedback resistance
(RF). This is depicted in the schematic of Figure 60 where total equivalent current noise density (ini) is shown at
the input of a noiseless amplifier and noiseless feedback resistor (RF). The total equivalent output voltage noise
density (eno) is ini*RF. Noise Equation for Transimpedance Amplifier:

Figure 59. Current Noise Density vs. Feedback Resistance
Figure 60. Transimpedance Amplifier Equivalent Input Source Mode
From Figure 61, it is clear that with the LMH6624 extremely low-noise characteristics, for RF< 3 kΩ, the noise
performance is entirely dominated by RFthermal noise. Only above this RFthreshold, the input noise current (in)
of LMH6624 becomes a factor and at no RFsetting does the LMH6624 input noise voltage play a significant role.
This noise analysis has ignored the possible noise gain increase, due to photo-diode capacitance, at higher
frequencies.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The LMH6624 and LMH6626 devices can operate off a single supply or with dual supplies as long as the input
CM voltage range (CMIR) has the required headroom to either supply rail. Supplies should be decoupled with
low inductance, often ceramic, capacitors to ground less than 0.5 inches from the device pins. The use of ground
plane is recommended, and as in most high speed devices, it is advisable to remove ground plane close to
device sensitive pins such as the inputs.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
TI suggests the copper patterns on the evaluation boards shown in Figure 62 and Figure 63 as a guide for high
frequency layout. These boards are also useful as an aid in device testing and characterization. As is the case
with all high-speed amplifiers, accepted-practice RF design technique on the PCB layout is mandatory.
Generally, a good high frequency layout exhibits a separation of power supply and ground traces from the
inverting input and output pins as shown in Figure 62. Parasitic capacitances between these nodes and ground
may cause frequency response peaking and possible circuit oscillations. See Application Note OA-15, Frequent
Faux Pas in Applying Wideband Current Feedback Amplifiers (SNOA367) for more information. Use high quality
chip capacitors with values in the range of 1000 pF to 0.1 µF for power supply bypassing as shown in Figure 62.
One terminal of each chip capacitor is connected to the ground plane and the other terminal is connected to a
point that is as close as possible to each supply pin as allowed by the manufacturer’s design rules. In addition,
connect a tantalum capacitor with a value between 4.7 μF and 10 μF in parallel with the chip capacitor. Signal
lines connecting the feedback and gain resistors should be as short as possible to minimize inductance and
microstrip line effect as shown in Figure 63. Place input and output termination resistors as close as possible to
the input/output pins. Traces greater than 1 inch in length should be impedance matched to the corresponding
load termination.
Symmetry between the positive and negative paths in the layout of differential circuitry should be maintained to
minimize the imbalance of amplitude and phase of the differential signal.
Component value selection is another important parameter in working with high speed and high performance
amplifiers. Choosing external resistors that are large in value compared to the value of other critical components
will affect the closed loop behavior of the stage because of the interaction of these resistors with parasitic
capacitances. These parasitic capacitors could either be inherent to the device or be a by-product of the board
layout and component placement. Moreover, a large resistor will also add more thermal noise to the signal path.
Either way, keeping the resistor values low will diminish this interaction. On the other hand, choosing very low
value resistors could load down nodes and will contribute to higher overall power dissipation and high distortion.
