APPLICATION INFORMATION
Input Common-Mode Voltage Range
The LMC6462/4 has a rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage range. Figure 33 shows an input voltage
exceeding both supplies with no resulting phase inversion on the output.
Figure 33. An Input Voltage Signal Exceeds the LMC6462/4 Power Supply Voltage with No Output Phase
Inversion
The absolute maximum input voltage at V+= 3V is 300 mV beyond either supply rail at room temperature.
Voltages greatly exceeding this absolute maximum rating, as in Figure 34, can cause excessive current to flow in
or out of the input pins, possibly affecting reliability. The input current can be externally limited to ±5 mA, with an
input resistor, as shown in Figure 35.

The approximated output resistance of the LMC6462/4 is 180Ωsourcing, and 130Ωsinking at VS= 3V, and
110Ωsourcing and 83Ωsinking at VS= 5V. The maximum output swing can be estimated as a function of load
using the calculated output resistance.
Capacitive Load Tolerance
The LMC6462/4 can typically drive a 200 pF load with VS= 5V at unity gain without oscillating. The unity gain
follower is the most sensitive configuration to capacitive load. Direct capacitive loading reduces the phase margin
of op-amps. The combination of the op-amp's output impedance and the capacitive load induces phase lag. This
results in either an underdamped pulse response or oscillation.
Capacitive load compensation can be accomplished using resistive isolation as shown in Figure 36. If there is a
resistive component of the load in parallel to the capacitive component, the isolation resistor and the resistive
load create a voltage divider at the output. This introduces a DC error at the output.

Figure 37. Pulse Response of the LMC6462 Circuit Shown in Figure 36
Figure 37 displays the pulse response of the LMC6462/4 circuit in Figure 36.
Another circuit, shown in Figure 38, is also used to indirectly drive capacitive loads. This circuit is an
improvement to the circuit shown in Figure 36 because it provides DC accuracy as well as AC stability. R1 and
C1 serve to counteract the loss of phase margin by feeding the high frequency component of the output signal
back to the amplifiers inverting input, thereby preserving phase margin in the overall feedback loop. The values
of R1 and C1 should be experimentally determined by the system designer for the desired pulse response.
Increased capacitive drive is possible by increasing the value of the capacitor in the feedback loop.

Compensating for Input Capacitance
It is quite common to use large values of feedback resistance with amplifiers that have ultra-low input current,
like the LMC6462/4. Large feedback resistors can react with small values of input capacitance due to
transducers, photodiodes, and circuits board parasitics to reduce phase margins.

Figure 40. Canceling the Effect of Input Capacitance
The effect of input capacitance can be compensated for by adding a feedback capacitor. The feedback capacitor
(as in Figure 40 ), CF, is first estimated by:
(1)
or R1CIN R2CF(2)
which typically provides significant overcompensation.
Printed circuit board stray capacitance may be larger or smaller than that of a breadboard, so the actual optimum
value for CFmay be different. The values of CFshould be checked on the actual circuit. (Refer to the LMC660
quad CMOS amplifier data sheet for a more detailed discussion.)
Offset Voltage Adjustment
Offset voltage adjustment circuits are illustrated in Figure 41 and Figure 42. Large value resistances and
potentiometers are used to reduce power consumption while providing typically ±2.5 mV of adjustment range,
referred to the input, for both configurations with VS= ±5V.

Printed-Circuit-Board Layout for High-Impedance Work
It is generally recognized that any circuit which must operate with less than 1000 pA of leakage current requires
special layout of the PC board. When one wishes to take advantage of the ultra-low input current of the
LMC6462/4, typically 150 fA, it is essential to have an excellent layout. Fortunately, the techniques of 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 acceptably low, because under conditions of high humidity or dust or contamination,
the surface leakage will be appreciable.
To minimize the effect of any surface leakage, lay out a ring of foil completely surrounding the LMC6462's inputs
and the terminals of capacitors, diodes, conductors, resistors, relay terminals, etc. connected to the op-amp's
inputs, as in Figure 43. To have a significant effect, guard rings should be placed in both the top and bottom of
the PC board. This 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 1012Ω, which is normally considered a very large resistance, could leak 5 pA if the
trace were a 5V bus adjacent to the pad of the input. This would cause a 30 times degradation from the
LMC6462/4's actual performance. However, if a guard ring is held within 5 mV of the inputs, then even a
resistance of 1011Ωwould cause only 0.05 pA of leakage current. See Figure 44 through Figure 46 for typical
connections of guard rings for standard op-amp configurations.

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 47.
(Input pins are lifted out of PC board and soldered directly to components. All other pins connected to PC board.)

Instrumentation Circuits
The LMC6464 has the high input impedance, large common-mode range and high CMRR needed for designing
instrumentation circuits. Instrumentation circuits designed with the LMC6464 can reject a larger range of
common-mode signals than most in-amps. This makes instrumentation circuits designed with the LMC6464 an
excellent choice for noisy or industrial environments. Other applications that benefit from these features include
analytic medical instruments, magnetic field detectors, gas detectors, and silicon-based transducers.

A small valued potentiometer is used in series with RGto set the differential gain of the three op-amp
instrumentation circuit in Figure 48. This combination is used instead of one large valued potentiometer to
increase gain trim accuracy and reduce error due to vibration.
Figure 48. Low Power Three Op-Amp Instrumentation Amplifier
A two op-amp instrumentation amplifier designed for a gain of 100 is shown in Figure 49. Low sensitivity
trimming is made for offset voltage, CMRR and gain. Low cost and low power consumption are the main
advantages of this two op-amp circuit.
Higher frequency and larger common-mode range applications are best facilitated by a three op-amp
instrumentation amplifier.

TYPICAL SINGLE-SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
Transducer Interface Circuits
Figure 50. Photo Detector Circuit
Photocells can be used in portable light measuring instruments. The LMC6462, which can be operated off a
battery, is an excellent choice for this circuit because of its very low input current and offset voltage.
LMC6462 as a Comparator
Figure 51. Comparator with Hysteresis
Figure 51 shows the application of the LMC6462 as a comparator. The hysteresis is determined by the ratio of
the two resistors. The LMC6462 can thus be used as a micropower comparator, in applications where the
quiescent current is an important parameter.

In Figure 52 Figure 53, RIlimits current into the amplifier since excess current can be caused by the input
voltage exceeding the supply voltage.

For single supply 5V operation, the output of the circuit will swing from 0V to 5V. The voltage divider set up R2,
R3and R4will cause the non-inverting input of the LMC6462 to move from 1.67V (of 5V) to 3.33V (of 5V).
This voltage behaves as the threshold voltage.
R1and C1determine the time constant of the circuit. The frequency of oscillation, fOSC is

Low Frequency Null
Figure 56. High Gain Amplifier with Low Frequency Null
Output offset voltage is the error introduced in the output voltage due to the inherent input offset voltage VOS, of
an amplifier.
Output Offset Voltage = (Input Offset Voltage) (Gain)
In the above configuration, the resistors R5and R6determine the nominal voltage around which the input signal,
VIN should be symmetrical. The high frequency component of the input signal VIN will be unaffected while the low
frequency component will be nulled since the DC level of the output will be the input offset voltage of the
LMC6462 plus the bias voltage. This implies that the output offset voltage due to the top amplifier will be
eliminated.
