General Description  
Features  
The SM72501 is a low offset voltage, rail-to-rail input and out-  
put precision amplifier with a CMOS input stage and a wide  
supply voltage range. The SM72501 is ideal for sensor inter-  
face and other instrumentation applications.

The guaranteed low offset voltage of less than ±200 µV along  
with the guaranteed low input bias current of less than ±1 pA  
makes the SM72501 ideal for precision applications. The  
SM72501 is built utilizing VIP50 technology, which allows the  
combination of a CMOS input stage and a 12V common mode  
and supply voltage range. This makes the SM72501 a great  
choice in many applications where conventional CMOS parts  
cannot operate under the desired voltage conditions.

The SM72501 has a rail-to-rail input stage that significantly  
reduces the CMRR glitch commonly associated with rail-to-  
rail input amplifiers. This is achieved by trimming both sides  
of the complimentary input stage, thereby reducing the differ-  
ence between the NMOS and PMOS offsets. The output of  
the SM72501 swings within 40 mV of either rail to maximize  
the signal dynamic range in applications requiring low supply  
voltage.  
Applications  
High impedance sensor interface  
Battery powered instrumentation  
High gain amplifiers  
DAC buffer  
The SM72501 is offered in the space saving 5-Pin SOT23.  
This small package is an ideal solution for area constrained  
PC boards and portable electronics.

INPUT CAPACITANCE  
Application Information  
CMOS input stages inherently have low input bias current and  
higher input referred voltage noise. The SM72501 enhances  
this performance by having the low input bias current of only  
±200 fA, as well as, a very low input referred voltage noise of  
SM72501  
The SM72501 is a low offset voltage, rail-to-rail input and out-  
put precision amplifier with a CMOS input stage and wide  
supply voltage range of 2.7V to 12V. The SM72501 has a very  
low input bias current of only ±200 fA at room temperature.  
9 nV/  
. In order to achieve this a larger input stage has  
been used. This larger input stage increases the input capac-  
itance of the SM72501. The typical value of this input capac-  
itance, CIN, for the SM72501 is 25 pF. The input capacitance  
will interact with other impedances such as gain and feedback  
resistors, which are seen on the inputs of the amplifier, to form  
a pole. This pole will have little or no effect on the output of  
the amplifier at low frequencies and DC conditions, but will  
play a bigger role as the frequency increases. At higher fre-  
quencies, the presence of this pole will decrease phase mar-  
gin and will also cause gain peaking. In order to compensate  
for the input capacitance, care must be taken in choosing the  
feedback resistors. In addition to being selective in picking  
values for the feedback resistor, a capacitor can be added to  
the feedback path to increase stability.  
The wide supply voltage range of 2.7V to 12V over the ex-  
tensive temperature range of −40°C to 125°C makes the  
SM72501 an excellent choice for low voltage precision appli-  
cations with extensive temperature requirements.  
The SM72501 has only ±37 μV of typical input referred offset  
voltage and this offset is guaranteed to be less than ±500 μV  
over temperature. This minimal offset voltage allows more  
accurate signal detection and amplification in precision appli-  
cations.  
The low input bias current of only ±200 fA along with the low  
input referred voltage noise of 9 nV/  
superiority for use in sensor applications. Lower levels of  
noise from the SM72501 means better signal fidelity and a  
higher signal-to-noise ratio.  
gives the SM72501  
The DC gain of the circuit shown in Figure 2 is simply –R2/  
R1.  
National Semiconductor is heavily committed to precision  
amplifiers and the market segment they serve. Technical sup-  
port and extensive characterization data is available for sen-  
sitive applications or applications with a constrained error  
budget.  
The SM72501 is offered in the space saving 5-Pin SOT23.  
This small package is an ideal solution for area constrained  
PC boards and portable electronics.  
CAPACITIVE LOAD  
The SM72501 can be connected as a non-inverting unity gain  
follower. This configuration is the most sensitive to capacitive  
loading.  
The combination of a capacitive load placed on the output of  
an amplifier along with the amplifier's output impedance cre-  
ates a phase lag which in turn reduces the phase margin of  
the amplifier. If the phase margin is significantly reduced, the  
response will be either underdamped or it will oscillate.  
30142144  
FIGURE 2. Compensating for Input Capacitance  
In order to drive heavier capacitive loads, an isolation resistor,  
RISO, in Figure 1 should be used. By using this isolation re-  
sistor, the capacitive load is isolated from the amplifier's  
output, and hence, the pole caused by CL is no longer in the  
feedback loop. The larger the value of RISO, the more stable  
the output voltage will be. If values of RISO are sufficiently  
large, the feedback loop will be stable, independent of the  
value of CL. However, larger values of RISO result in reduced  
output swing and reduced output current drive.  
For the time being, ignore CF. The AC gain of the circuit in  
Figure 2 can be calculated as follows:  
This equation is rearranged to find the location of the two  
poles:  
(1)  
As shown in Equation 1, as values of R1 and R2 are increased,  
the magnitude of the poles is reduced, which in turn decreas-  
es the bandwidth of the amplifier. Whenever possible, it is  
best to choose smaller feedback resistors. Figure 3 shows the  
effect of the feedback resistor on the bandwidth of the  
SM72501.

DIODES BETWEEN THE INPUTS  
The SM72501 has a set of anti-parallel diodes between the  
input pins, as shown in Figure 5. These diodes are present to  
protect the input stage of the amplifier. At the same time, they  
limit the amount of differential input voltage that is allowed on  
the input pins. A differential signal larger than one diode volt-  
age drop might damage the diodes. The differential signal  
between the inputs needs to be limited to ±300 mV or the input  
current needs to be limited to ±10 mA.  
30142154  
FIGURE 3. Closed Loop Gain vs. Frequency  
30142125  
Equation 1 has two poles. In most cases, it is the presence of  
pairs of poles that causes gain peaking. In order to eliminate  
this effect, the poles should be placed in Butterworth position,  
since poles in Butterworth position do not cause gain peaking.  
To achieve a Butterworth pair, the quantity under the square  
root in Equation 1 should be set to equal −1. Using this fact  
and the relation between R1 and R2, R2 = −AV R1, the optimum  
value for R1 can be found. This is shown in Equation 2. If R1  
is chosen to be larger than this optimum value, gain peaking  
will occur.  
FIGURE 5. Input of SM72501  
(2)  
In Figure 2, CF is added to compensate for input capacitance  
and to increase stability. Additionally, CF reduces or elimi-  
nates the gain peaking that can be caused by having a larger  
feedback resistor. Figure 4 shows how CF reduces gain peak-  
ing.

PRECISION CURRENT SOURCE  
combination. This is because each individual amplifier acts as  
an independent noise source, and the average noise of inde-  
pendent sources is the quadrature sum of the independent  
sources divided by the number of sources. For N identical  
amplifiers, this means:  
The SM72501 can be used as a precision current source in  
many different applications. Figure 6 shows a typical preci-  
sion current source. This circuit implements a precision volt-  
age controlled current source. Amplifier A1 is a differential  
amplifier that uses the voltage drop across RS as the feedback  
signal. Amplifier A2 is a buffer that eliminates the error current  
from the load side of the RS resistor that would flow in the  
feedback resistor if it were connected to the load side of the  
RS resistor. In general, the circuit is stable as long as the  
closed loop bandwidth of amplifier A2 is greater then the  
closed loop bandwidth of amplifier A1. Note that if A1 and A2  
are the same type of amplifiers, then the feedback around A1  
will reduce its bandwidth compared to A2.

The equation for output current can be derived as follows:  
Solving for the current I results in the following equation:  
LOW INPUT VOLTAGE NOISE  
The SM72501 has a very low input voltage noise of 9 nV/  
. This input voltage noise can be further reduced by plac-  
ing N amplifiers in parallel as shown in Figure 7. The total  
voltage noise on the output of this circuit is divided by the  
square root of the number of amplifiers used in this parallel

TOTAL NOISE CONTRIBUTION  
HIGH IMPEDANCE SENSOR INTERFACE  
The SM72501 has very low input bias current, very low input  
current noise, and very low input voltage noise. As a result,  
these amplifiers are ideal choices for circuits with high  
impedance sensor applications.  
Many sensors have high source impedances that may range  
up to 10 M. The output signal of sensors often needs to be  
amplified or otherwise conditioned by means of an amplifier.  
The input bias current of this amplifier can load the sensor's  
output and cause a voltage drop across the source resistance  
as shown in Figure 9, where VIN+ = VS – IBIAS*RS  
Figure 8 shows the typical input noise of the SM72501 as a  
function of source resistance where:  
The last term, IBIAS*RS, shows the voltage drop across RS. To  
prevent errors introduced to the system due to this voltage,  
an op amp with very low input bias current must be used with  
high impedance sensors. This is to keep the error contribution  
by IBIAS*RS less than the input voltage noise of the amplifier,  
so that it will not become the dominant noise factor.

referred current noise or ei = RS * in

eni shows the total noise on the input.  
Where:  
The input current noise of the SM72501 is so low that it will  
not become the dominant factor in the total noise unless  
source resistance exceeds 300 M, which is an unrealisti-  
cally high value.  
As is evident in Figure 8, at lower RS values, total noise is  
dominated by the amplifier's input voltage noise. Once RS is  
larger than a few kilo-Ohms, then the dominant noise factor  
becomes the thermal noise of RS. As mentioned before, the  
current noise will not be the dominant noise factor for any  
practical application.

pH electrodes are very high impedance sensors. As their  
name indicates, they are used to measure the pH of a solu-  
tion. They usually do this by generating an output voltage  
which is proportional to the pH of the solution. pH electrodes  
are calibrated so that they have zero output for a neutral so-  
lution, pH = 7, and positive and negative voltages for acidic  
or alkaline solutions. This means that the output of a pH elec-  
trode is bipolar and has to be level shifted to be used in a  
single supply system. The rate of change of this voltage is  
usually shown in mV/pH and is different for different pH sen-  
sors. Temperature is also an important factor in a pH elec-  
trode reading. The output voltage of the senor will change with  
temperature.  
Figure 10 shows a typical output voltage spectrum of a pH  
electrode. Note that the exact values of output voltage will be  
different for different sensors. In this example, the pH elec-  
trode has an output voltage of 59.15 mV/pH at 25°C.

The temperature dependence of a typical pH electrode is  
shown in Figure 11. As is evident, the output voltage changes  
with changes in temperature.

mation is used by the ADC to calculate the temperature  
effects on the pH readings. The LM35 needs to have a resis-  
tor, RT in Figure 12, to –V+ in order to be able to read  
temperatures below 0°C. RT is not needed if temperatures are  
not expected to go below zero.  
The output of pH electrodes is usually large enough that it  
does not require much amplification; however, due to the very  
high impedance, the output of a pH electrode needs to be  
buffered before it can go to an ADC. Since most ADCs are  
operated on single supply, the output of the pH electrode also  
needs to be level shifted. Amplifier A1 buffers the output of  
the pH electrode with a moderate gain of +2, while A2 pro-  
vides the level shifting. VOUT at the output of A2 is given by:  
VOUT = −2VpH + 1.024V.  
The LM4140A is a precision, low noise, voltage reference  
used to provide the level shift needed. The ADC used in this  
application is the ADC12032 which is a 12-bit, 2 channel con-  
verter with multiplexers on the inputs and a serial output. The  
12-bit ADC enables users to measure pH with an accuracy of  
0.003 of a pH unit. Adequate power supply bypassing and  
grounding is extremely important for ADCs. Recommended  
bypass capacitors are shown in Figure 12. It is common to  
share power supplies between different components in a cir-  
cuit. To minimize the effects of power supply ripples caused  
by other components, the op amps need to have bypass ca-  
pacitors on the supply pins. Using the same value capacitors  
as those used with the ADC are ideal. The combination of  
these three values of capacitors ensures that AC noise  
present on the power supply line is grounded and does not  
interfere with the amplifiers' signal.

FIGURE 11. Temperature Dependence of a pH Electrode  
The schematic shown in Figure 12 is a typical circuit which  
can be used for pH measurement. The LM35 is a precision  
integrated circuit temperature sensor. This sensor is differen-  
tiated from similar products because it has an output voltage  
linearly proportional to Celcius measurement, without the  
need to convert the temperature to Kelvin. The LM35 is used  
to measure the temperature of the solution and feeds this  
reading to the Analog to Digital Converter, ADC. This infor-
