Product details
Overview
AD711KNZ from Analog Devices is a precision, high-speed BiFET operational amplifier in an 8-pin plastic DIP package, delivering 3 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 16 V/µs slew rate, and 0.25 mV max input offset voltage (C-grade spec, applicable per datasheet grading). It serves as a buffer for 12-bit DACs/ADCs and low-noise photodiode preamplifiers in industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the AD711KNZ datasheet, AD711KNZ pinout, AD711KNZ application, or AD711KNZ equivalent, key selection criteria include settling time to ±0.01% (1.0 ms), input bias current ≤25 pA (C-grade), 0.1–10 Hz noise ≤4 µVp-p, and guaranteed open-loop gain ≥200 V/mV - all validated under ±15 V supply at 25°C.
Technical Context
The AD711KNZ employs laser-trimmed JFET input stage architecture enabling ultra-low input bias current (≤25 pA) and drift (≤5 µV/°C), critical for high-impedance sensor interfaces. Its compensated internal design achieves stable unity-gain operation while driving ≥100 pF capacitive loads without external compensation.
It features standard dual-supply op amp topology with offset null pins (1 & 5), rail-to-rail input common-mode range (–VS + 4 V to +VS – 2 V), and output swing of ±13 V into 2 kΩ - optimized for precision active filtering and data converter buffering where dc accuracy and transient fidelity are co-constrained.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 3.0 MHz min - ensures stable closed-loop gain ≥1 with phase margin >60° up to 20 kHz in filter designs. |
| Slew Rate | 16 V/µs min - enables full-scale 10 V step settling within 1.0 µs before dominant settling phase begins. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 0.25 mV max (C-grade) - supports 12-bit linearity (±0.025% FSR error) over industrial temperature range. |
| Input Bias Current | 25 pA max (C-grade, 25°C) - limits voltage error to <0.25 mV across 10 MΩ source impedance. |
| 0.1–10 Hz Noise | 4 µVp-p max - guarantees sub-LSB noise floor for 12-bit systems sampling at ≤100 SPS. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 200 V/mV min - provides ≥80 dB loop gain at 10 kHz, ensuring <0.01% gain error in precision integrators. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | 86 dB min - maintains 12-bit accuracy even with ±10 V common-mode shift on inputs. |
Pinout & Package
AD711KNZ is housed in an 8-pin plastic dual-in-line package (N-8), compliant with JEDEC MS-001, with 0.3 inch body width and 0.1 inch lead pitch. Pin 4 connects internally to the metal can case (ground reference point).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Offset Null | Connects to wiper of 10 kΩ potentiometer between Pins 4 and 5 to trim input offset voltage. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–) | High-impedance JFET node; accepts feedback network for inverting configurations. |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (+) | High-impedance JFET node; referenced to system ground or signal source in noninverting buffers. |
| 4 | –VS / Case | Negative supply rail connection; also tied to metal can shield for EMI suppression. |
| 5 | Offset Null | Completes offset trim circuit; symmetric adjustment with Pin 1 minimizes thermal drift contribution. |
| 6 | Output | Class-A output stage capable of ±25 mA short-circuit current; drives 2 kΩ load to ±13 V. |
| 7 | +VS | Positive supply rail; operates from ±4.5 V to ±18 V; quiescent current 2.5–2.8 mA typical. |
| 8 | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no external tie or bypass required. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP27GP | Higher slew rate (8 V/µs), lower noise (3.5 nV/√Hz), but bipolar input (200 nA bias current) vs. AD711KNZ's JFET input (25 pA). | Better for low-noise voltage amplification; unsuitable for high-Z photodiode or electrometer use due to bias current. | Select OP27GP when voltage-source signals dominate and dc precision at high frequencies is prioritized over input impedance. |
| TL071CP | Lower cost, same JFET input, but 0.5 mV offset (vs. 0.25 mV), 13 V/µs slew rate, and no guaranteed 0.01% settling time spec. | Adequate for general-purpose audio and non-critical instrumentation; not recommended for 12-bit data converter interfaces. | Choose TL071CP only for cost-sensitive, non-precision applications where 12-bit linearity and sub-microsecond settling are not required. |
Compared with OP27GP and TL071CP, AD711KNZ uniquely balances JFET-input impedance, 12-bit dc accuracy, and verified 1.0 ms ±0.01% settling - making it the only option among the three qualified for photodiode preamps and DAC buffers demanding simultaneous low bias current and fast transient response.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for AD711KNZ?
The AD711KNZ is rated for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, as indicated by the 'N' suffix in the part number and confirmed in the Analog Devices ordering guide. This grade uses plastic DIP packaging (N-8) and meets all electrical specifications within this ambient range when powered from ±15 V supplies. The AD711KNZ does not support extended industrial (–40°C to +85°C) or military temperature ranges.
Does AD711KNZ require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, AD711KNZ is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and drives ≥100 pF capacitive loads without oscillation. The datasheet confirms stable operation in unity-gain follower configurations with 100 pF load capacitance, eliminating need for external compensation networks. However, for loads exceeding 1500 pF, a 100 Ω isolation resistor in series with the output is recommended per Figure 13.
Can AD711KNZ be used with single-supply operation?
Yes, AD711KNZ operates from split supplies (±4.5 V to ±18 V) but can be configured for single-supply use with appropriate biasing. Its input common-mode range extends to –VS + 4 V and +VS – 2 V, allowing rail-to-rail input operation when VS = 0 V is used as reference. Output swing remains asymmetric (e.g., 0 V to +13 V with +15 V supply), requiring level-shifting for true rail-to-rail output.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 5 on AD711KNZ?
Pins 1 and 5 are offset null terminals used to minimize input offset voltage via an external 10 kΩ potentiometer. Pin 1 connects to one end of the pot, Pin 5 to the other end, and the wiper connects to –VS (Pin 4). This two-point nulling scheme reduces thermal drift contribution compared to single-pot configurations and is specified for use with ±15 V supplies per the AD711KNZ datasheet.
How does AD711KNZ compare to AD711JN in terms of performance?
AD711KNZ and AD711JN share identical 8-pin plastic DIP packaging and commercial temperature rating (0°C to +70°C), but differ in grading: AD711KNZ is K-grade (tighter specs - e.g., 0.5 mV max offset, 18 V/µs min slew rate), while AD711JN is J-grade (2 mV max offset, 16 V/µs min slew rate). Both meet AD711 family specifications, but AD711KNZ offers superior dc precision and dynamic performance for higher-resolution systems.
