NOISE CONSIDERATIONS
Figure 48 illustrates the primary noise contributors for the
typical gain configurations. The total rms output noise is
the root-mean-square of all the contributions.
vn _ R
The output noise spectral density can be calculated by
where:
k is Boltzmann’s constant.
T is the absolute temperature (degrees Kelvin).
iep and ien represent the amplifier input current noise spectral
density (pA/√Hz).
ven is the amplifier input voltage noise spectral density (nV/√Hz).

1 nV/√Hz input voltage noise and 2.8 pA/√Hz input current
noise, the noise contributions of the amplifier are relatively
small for source resistances from approximately 50 Ω to 700 Ω.
Figure 49 shows the total RTI noise due to the amplifier vs. the
source resistance. In addition, the value of the feedback resistors
used affects the noise. It is recommended that the value of the
feedback resistors be maintained between 250 Ω and 1 kΩ to
keep the total noise low.

CAPACITANCE DRIVE
Capacitance at the output of an amplifier creates a delay within the
feedback path that, if within the bandwidth of the loop, can create
excessive ringing and oscillation. The ADA4896-2/ADA4897-1/

Placing a small snub resistor (R
