FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The THS4631 is a high-speed, FET-input operational
amplifier designed for applications requiring wideband
operation, high-input impedance, and high-power

High Bandwidth:
–
–
325 MHz in Unity Gain

supply voltages. By providing
a 210-MHz gain
bandwidth product, ±15-V supply operation, and
100-pA input bias current, the THS4631 is capable of
simultaneous wideband transimpedance gain and
large output signal swing. The fast 1000 V/µs slew
rate allows for fast settling times and good harmonic
distortion at high frequencies. Low current and
voltage noise allow amplification of extremely
low-level input signals while still maintaining a large
signal-to-noise ratio.

Maximum Input Offset Voltage: 500 µV at 25°C
Low Offset Drift: 2.5 µV/°C
Input Impedance: 109 || 3.9 pF
The characteristics of the THS4631 make it ideally
suited for use as a wideband photodiode amplifier.
Photodiode output current is a prime candidate for
transimpedance amplification as shown below. Other
potential applications include test and measurement
systems requiring high-input impedance, ADC and
DAC buffering, high-speed integration, and active
filtering.
Wide Supply Range: ± 5 V to ± 15 V
High Output Current: 95 mA

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

(1) The absolute maximum ratings under any condition is limited by the constraints of the silicon process. Stresses above these ratings may
cause permanent damage. Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade device reliability. These are
stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is not implied.
(2) The maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is limited by package constraints. Operation above this temperature may
result in reduced reliability and/or lifetime of the device.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The large gain-bandwidth product of the THS4631
provides the capability for simultaneously achieving
both high-transimpedance gain, wide bandwidth, high
slw rate, and low noise. In addition, the high-power
supply rails provide the potential for a very wide
dynamic range at the output, allowing for the use of
input sources which possess wide dynamic range.
The combination of these characteristics makes the
THS4631 a design option for systems that require
transimpedance amplification of wideband, low-level
input signals. A standard transimpedance circuit is
shown in Figure 32.
INTRODUCTION
The THS4631 is a high-speed, FET-input operational
amplifier. The combination of: high gain bandwidth
product of 210 MHz, high slew rate of 1000 V/µs, and
trimmed dc precision makes the device an excellent
design option for a wide variety of applications,
including test and measurement, optical monitoring,
transimpedance gain circuits, and high-impedance
buffers. The applications section of the data sheet
discusses these particular applications in addition to
general information about the device and its features

DESIGNING THE TRANSIMPEDANCE
CIRCUIT
Figure 32. Wideband Photodiode
Transimpedance Amplifier
Typically, design of a transimpedance circuit is driven
by the characteristics of the current source that
provides the input to the gain block. A photodiode is
the most common example of a capacitive current
source that interfaces with a transimpedance gain
block. Continuing with the photodiode example, the
system designer traditionally chooses a photodiode
based on two opposing criteria: speed and sensitivity.
Faster photodiodes cause a need for faster gain
stages, and more sensitive photodiodes require
higher gains in order to develop appreciable signal
levels at the output of the gain stage.
As indicated, the current source typically sets the
requirements for gain, speed, and dynamic range of
the amplifier. For a given amplifier and source
combination, achievable performance is dictated by
the

using a given amplifier is determined. Optimal is
These parameters affect the design of the
transimpedance circuit in a few ways. First, the speed
of the photodiode signal determines the required
bandwidth of the gain circuit. Second, the required
gain, based on the sensitivity of the photodiode, limits
the bandwidth of the circuit. Third, the larger
capacitance associated with a more sensitive signal
source also detracts from the achievable speed of the
gain block. The dynamic range of the input signal
also places requirements on the amplifier dynamic
range. Knowledge of the source output current levels,
coupled with a desired voltage swing on the output,
dictates the value of the feedback resistor, RF. The
transfer function from input to output is VOUT = IINRF.

transimpedance gain with a maximized flat frequency

For the circuit shown in Figure 32, all but one of the
design parameters is known; the feedback capacitor
(CF) must be determined. Proper selection of the
feedback capacitor prevents an unstable design,
controls pulse response characteristics, provides
maximized flat transimpedance bandwidth, and limits
broadband integrated noise. The maximized flat
frequency response results with CF calculated as
shown in Equation 1, where CF is the feedback
capacitor, RF is the feedback resistor, CS is the total
source capacitance (including amplifier input
capacitance and parasitic capacitance at the inverting
node), and GBP is the gain-bandwidth product of the
amplifier in hertz.

well as the additional capacitance associated with the

Table 1. Transimpedance Performance Summary
for Various Configurations
The feedback capacitor provides a pole in the noise
gain of the circuit, counteracting the zero in the noise
gain caused by the source capacitance. The pole is
set such that the noise gain achieves a 20-dB per
decade rate-of-closure with the open-loop gain
response of the amplifier, resulting in a stable circuit.
As indicated, the formula given provides the feedback
capacitance for maximized flat bandwidth. Reduction
in the value of the feedback capacitor can increase
the signal bandwidth, but this occurs at the expense
of peaking in the ac response.

is difficult to measure the frequency response with
traditional laboratory equipment because the circuit
requires a current as an input rather than a voltage.
Also, the capacitance of the current source has a
direct effect on the frequency response. A simple
interface circuit can be used to emulate a capacitive
current source with a network analyzer. With this
circuit, trans- impedance bandwidth measurements
are simplified, making amplifier evaluation easier and

SUMMARY OF KEY DECISIONS IN
TRANSIMPEDANCE DESIGN
feedback resistors this large or anticipate using an
external compensation scheme to stabilize the circuit.
Using a simple capacitor in parallel with the feedback
resistor makes the amplifier more stable as shown in
the Typical Characteristics graphs.
The following is a simplified process for basic
transimpedance circuit design. This process gives a
start to the design process, though it does ignore
some aspects that may be critical to the circuit.
NOISE ANALYSIS
STEP 1: Determine the capacitance of the source.
High slew rate, unity gain stable, voltage-feedback
operational amplifiers usually achieve their slew rate
at the expense of a higher input noise voltage. The
7 nV/√Hz input voltage noise for the THS4631 is,
however, much lower than comparable amplifiers
while achieving high slew rates. The input-referred
voltage noise, and the input-referred current noise
term, combine to give low output noise under a wide
variety of operating conditions. Figure 42 shows the
amplifier noise analysis model with all the noise terms
included. In this model, all noise terms are taken to
be noise voltage or current density terms in either
nV/√Hz or fA/√Hz.
STEP 2: Calculate the total source capacitance,
including the amplifier input capacitance, CI(CM)
and CI(DIFF)
.
STEP 3: Determine the magnitude of the possible
current output from the source, including the
minimum signal current anticipated and
maximum signal current anticipated.
STEP 4: Choose a feedback resistor value such that
the input current levels create the desired
output signal voltages, and
ensure that the output voltages can
accommodate the dynamic range of the input
signal.

SELECTION OF FEEDBACK RESISTORS
Feedback resistor selection can have a significant
effect on the performance of the THS4631 in a given
application, especially in configurations with low
closed-loop gain. If the amplifier is configured for
unity gain, the output should be directly connected to
the inverting input. Any resistance between these two
points interacts with the input capacitance of the
amplifier and causes an additional pole in the
frequency response. For nonunity gain configurations,
low resistances are desirable for flat frequency
response. However, care must be taken not to load
the amplifier too heavily with the feedback network if
large output signals are expected. In most cases, a
trade off is made between the frequency response
characteristics and the loading of the amplifier. For a
gain of 2, a 499-Ωfeedback resistor is a suitable
operating point from both perspectives. If resistor
values are chosen too large, the THS4631 is subject
to oscillation problems. For example, an inverting
amplifier configuration with a 5-kΩ gain resistor and a
5-kΩ feedback resistor develops an oscillation due to
the interaction of the large resistors with the input
capacitance. In low gain configurations, avoid
Figure 42. Noise Analysis Model
The total output noise voltage can be computed as
the square root of all square output noise voltage
contributors. Equation 7 shows the general form for
the output noise voltage using the terms shown in

very low reactance type. Surface-mount
resistors work best and allow a tighter overall
layout. Again, keep their leads and PC board
trace length as short as possible. Never use
wirebound type resistors in a high frequency
application. Since the output pin and inverting
input pins are the most sensitive to parasitic
capacitance, always position the feedback and
series output resistors, if any, as close as possible
to the inverting input pins and output pins. Other
network components, such as input termination
resistors, should be placed close to the
gain-setting resistors. Even with a low parasitic
capacitance shunting the external resistors,
excessively high resistor values can create
significant time constants that can degrade
SLEW RATE PERFORMANCE WITH VARYING
INPUT STEP AMPLITUDE AND RISE/FALL
TIME
Some FET input amplifiers exhibit the peculiar
behavior of having a larger slew rate when presented
with smaller input voltage steps and slower edge
rates due to a change in bias conditions in the input
stage of the amplifier under these circumstances.
This phenomena is most commonly seen when FET
input amplifiers are used as voltage followers. As this
behavior is typically undesirable, the THS4631 has
been designed to avoid these issues. Larger
amplitudes lead to higher slew rates, as would be
anticipated, and fast edges do not degrade the slew
rate of the device. The high slew rate of the THS4631
allows improved SFDR and THD performance,
especially noticeable above 5 MHz.

2.0 kΩ, this parasitic capacitance can add a pole

Keep resistor values as low as possible,
consistent with load driving considerations.
•
Connections to other wideband devices on the
board may be made with short direct traces or
through onboard transmission lines. For short
connections, consider the trace and the input to
the next device as a lumped capacitive load.
Relatively wide traces (50 mils to 100 mils) should
be used, preferably with ground and power planes
opened up around them. Estimate the total
capacitive load and determine if isolation resistors
on the outputs are necessary. Low parasitic
capacitive loads (< 4 pF) may not need an RS
since the THS4631 is nominally compensated to
operate with a 2-pF parasitic load. Higher parasitic
capacitive loads without an RS are allowed as the
signal gain increases (increasing the unloaded
phase margin). If a long trace is required, and the
6-dB signal loss intrinsic to a doubly-terminated
transmission line is acceptable, implement a
matched impedance transmission line using
microstrip or stripline techniques (consult an ECL
design handbook for microstrip and stripline layout
PRINTED-CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT
TECHNIQUES FOR OPTIMAL
PERFORMANCE
Achieving optimum performance with high frequency
amplifier-like devices in the THS4631 requires careful
attention to board layout parasitic and external
component types.
Recommendations that optimize performance include:
•
Minimize parasitic capacitance to any ac ground
for all of the signal I/O pins. Parasitic capacitance
on the output and input pins can cause instability.
To reduce unwanted capacitance,
a window
around the signal I/O pins should be opened in all
of the ground and power planes around those
pins. Otherwise, ground and power planes should
be unbroken elsewhere on the board.
•
Minimize the distance (< 0.25”) from the power
supply pins to high frequency 0.1-µF and 100-pF
de-coupling capacitors. At the device pins, the
ground and power plane layout should not be in
close proximity to the signal I/O pins. Avoid
narrow power and ground traces to minimize
inductance between the pins and the de-coupling
capacitors. The power supply connections should
always be de-coupled with these capacitors.
Larger (6.8 µF or more) tantalum de-coupling
capacitors, effective at lower frequency, should
also be used on the main supply pins. These may
be placed somewhat farther from the device and
may be shared among several devices in the
same area of the PC board.

in fact, a higher impedance environment improves
distortion as shown in the distortion versus load
plots. With a characteristic board trace impedance
based on board material and trace dimensions, a
matching series resistor into the trace from the
output of the THS4631 is used as well as a
terminating shunt resistor at the input of the
destination device. Remember also that the
terminating impedance is the parallel combination
of the shunt resistor and the input impedance of
the destination device: this total effective
impedance should be set to match the trace

impedance. If the 6-dB attenuation of a doubly
terminated transmission line is unacceptable, a
long trace can be series-terminated at the source
end only. Treat the trace as a capacitive load in
this case. This does not preserve signal integrity
or a doubly-terminated line. If the input impedance
of the destination device is low, there is some
signal attenuation due to the voltage divider
formed by the series output into the terminating
impedance.

Socketing a high-speed part like the THS4631 is
not recommended. The additional lead length and
pin-to-pin capacitance introduced by the socket
creates a troublesome parasitic network which
makes it almost impossible to achieve a smooth,
stable frequency response. Best results are
obtained by soldering the THS4631 part directly
onto the board.

PowerPAD DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
The THS4631 is available in a thermally-enhanced
PowerPAD family of packages. These packages are
constructed using a downset leadframe upon which
the die is mounted [see Figure 43 (a) and Figure 43
(b)]. This arrangement results in the lead frame being
exposed as a thermal pad on the underside of the
package [see Figure 43 (c)]. Because this thermal
pad has direct thermal contact with the die, excellent
thermal performance can be achieved by providing a
good thermal path away from the thermal pad

The PowerPAD package allows for both assembly
and thermal management in one manufacturing
operation. During the surface-mount solder operation
(when the leads are being soldered), the thermal pad
can also be soldered to a copper area underneath the
package. Through the use of thermal paths within this
copper area, heat can be conducted away from the
package into either a ground plane or other heat
dissipating device.

solder wicking through the holes is not a problem
during reflow.

3. Additional vias may be placed anywhere along
the thermal plane outside of the thermal pad
area. This helps dissipate the heat generated by
the THS4631 IC. These additional vias may be
larger than the 10-mil diameter vias directly under
the thermal pad. They can be larger because
they are not in the thermal pad area to be

4. Connect all holes to the internal ground plane.
Although the PowerPAD is electrically isolated
from all pins and the active circuitry, connection
to the ground plane is recommended. This is due
to the fact that ground planes on most PCBs are
typically the targets copper area. Offering the
best thermal path heat to flow out of the device.

where:
PDmax is the maximum power dissipation in the
amplifier (W).
Tmax is the absolute maximum junction
temperature (°C).
5. When connecting these holes to the ground
plane, do not use the typical web or spoke via
connection methodology. Web connections have
a high thermal resistance connection that is
useful for slowing the heat transfer during
soldering operations. This makes the soldering of
vias that have plane connections easier. In this
application, however, low thermal resistance is
desired for the most efficient heat transfer.
Therefore, the holes under the THS4631
TA is the ambient temperature (°C).
θJA = θJC + θCA
θJC is the thermal coefficient from the silicon
junctions to the case (°C/W).
θCA is the thermal coefficient from the case to
ambient air (°C/W).
NOTE:
For systems where heat dissipation is more
critical, the THS4631 is offered in an 8-pin MSOP
with PowerPAD package and an 8-pin SOIC with
PowerPAD package with better thermal
performance. The thermal coefficient for the
PowerPAD packages are substantially improved
over the traditional SOIC. Maximum power
dissipation levels are depicted in Figure 46 for the
available packages. The data for the PowerPAD
packages assume a board layout that follows the
PowerPAD layout guidelines referenced above
and detailed in the PowerPAD application note
number SLMA002. Figure 46 also illustrates the
effect of not soldering the PowerPAD to a PCB.
The thermal impedance increases substantially
which may cause serious heat and performance
issues. Be sure to always solder the PowerPAD
to the PCB for optimum performance.

6. The top-side solder mask should leave the
terminals of the package and the thermal pad
area with its via holes exposed. The bottom-side
solder mask should cover the via holes of the
thermal pad area. This prevents solder from
being pulled away from the thermal pad area
during the reflow process.
7. Apply solder paste to the exposed thermal pad
area and all of the IC terminals.
8. With these preparatory steps in place, the IC is
simply placed in position and run through the
solder reflow operation as any standard
surface-mount component. This results in a part
that is properly installed.

When determining whether or not the device satisfies
the maximum power dissipation requirement, it is
important to not only consider quiescent power
dissipation, but also dynamic power dissipation. Often
times, this is difficult to quantify because the signal
pattern is inconsistent, but an estimate of the RMS
power dissipation can provide visibility into a possible
problem

EVM
Computer simulation of circuit performance using SPICE is often useful when analyzing the performance of
analog circuits and systems. This is particularly true for video and RF-amplifier circuits where parasitic
capacitance and inductance can have a major effect on circuit performance. A SPICE model for the THS4631 is
available through either the Texas Instruments web site (www.ti.com). These models help in predicting
small-signal ac and transient performance under a wide variety of operating conditions. They are not intended to
model the distortion characteristics of the amplifier, nor do they attempt to distinguish between the package types
in their small-signal ac performance. Detailed information about what is and is not modeled is contained in the
model file itself.
