DESCRIPTION
The OPA689 is a wideband, voltage feedback op amp
that offers bipolar output voltage limiting, and is stable
for gains
≥
+4. Two buffered limiting voltages take
control of the output when it attempts to drive beyond
these limits. This new output limiting architecture holds
the limiter offset error to
±
15mV. The op amp operates
linearly to within 30mV of the limits.
The combination of narrow nonlinear range and low
limiting offset allows the limiting voltages to be set within
100mV of the desired linear output range. A fast 2.4ns
recovery from limiting ensures that overdrive signals will
be transparent to the signal channel. Implementing the
limiting function at the output, as opposed to the input,
gives the specified limiting accuracy for any gain, and
allows the OPA689 to be used in all standard op amp
applications.
Non-linear analog signal processing circuits will benefit
from the OPA689’s sharp transition from linear operation
to output limiting. The quick recovery time supports high
speed applications.
The OPA689 is available in an industry-standard pinout
in PDIP-8 and SO-8 packages. For lower gain applica-
tions requiring output limiting with fast recovery, con-
sider the OPA688.

C at high temperature limit guaranteed specifications. (2) TEST LEVELS: (A) 100% tested at 25
°
C. Over temperature limits by characterization and simulation.
(B) Limits set by characterization and simulation. (C) Typical value for information only. (3) Current is considered positive out of node. (4) CMIR tested as < 3dB
degradation from minimum CMRR at specified limits. (5) I
VH
(V
H
bias current) is positive, and I
VL
(V
L
bias current) is negative, under these conditions. See Note 3 and
Figures 1 and 7. (6) Limiter feedthrough is the ratio of the output magnitude to the sinewave added to V
H
(or V
L
) when V
IN
= 0. (7) V
H
slew rate conditions are: V
IN
= +0.7V, G = +6, V
L
= –2V, V
H
= step between 2V and 0V. V
L
slew rate conditions are similar. (8) Linearity Guardband is defined for an output sinusoid (f = 1MHz,
V
O
= 2Vpp) centered between the limiter levels (V
H
and V
L
). It is the difference between the limiter level and the peak output voltage where SFDR decreases by 3dB
(see Figure 8).
