Product details
Overview
LT1122DS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a JFET-input operational amplifier optimized for fast-settling, precision analog signal conditioning in 12-bit data acquisition systems. It delivers 340ns settling time to 1mV after a 10V step, 80V/µs slew rate, 14MHz gain-bandwidth product, and 120µV typical input offset voltage - enabling high-fidelity buffering and amplification in DAC output stages and sample-and-hold circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LT1122DS8#PBF datasheet, LT1122DS8#PBF pinout, LT1122DS8#PBF application, or LT1122DS8#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its unity-gain stability with 60° phase margin, low 10pA input bias current at 25°C, ±12.4V output swing into 2kΩ, and SO-8 package compatibility with high-speed layout requirements.
Technical Context
The LT1122DS8#PBF uses a proprietary poly-gate JFET process to minimize gate series resistance and gate-to-drain capacitance, preserving transistor matching while enabling wide bandwidth. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability without external components, yet maintains 14MHz bandwidth at only 7.8mA supply current.
Pin 8 (Speed Boost/Overcomp) provides configurable trade-offs: shorting to V+ increases slew rate and bandwidth by ~25% but reduces phase margin by ~18° and capacitive load tolerance from 500pF to 100pF; connecting a 15kΩ resistor to ground reduces slew rate by 25% while improving phase margin and raising stable capacitive load capability to 800pF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Slew Rate | 80V/µs typical - enables clean amplification of fast transient signals without slewing distortion in DAC output buffers. |
| Settling Time | 340ns to 1mV after 10V step - guarantees full 12-bit accuracy (<0.025% error) within sub-microsecond windows. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 14MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain ≥10 up to ~1.4MHz, suitable for active filter and signal conditioning stages. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 120µV typical - contributes ≤0.02% of full-scale error in 10V-range 12-bit systems (LSB = 2.44mV). |
| Input Bias Current | 10pA typical at 25°C - minimizes voltage error across high-impedance feedback or sensor networks (e.g., <1µV error on 100MΩ source). |
| Output Voltage Swing | ±12.4V into 2kΩ - delivers rail-to-rail usable dynamic range for ±15V supplies, critical for maximizing SNR in precision ADC drivers. |
| Supply Current | 7.8mA typical - balances speed and power efficiency for battery-sensitive or thermally constrained embedded systems. |
Pinout & Package
S8 package: 8-lead plastic small-outline (SO), narrow body (0.150"), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VOS TRIM | Offset null adjustment terminal - connects to external potentiometer (≥10kΩ) between V+ and V– for fine-tuning input offset voltage. |
| 2 | –IN | Inverting input - high-impedance JFET node; requires matched trace routing and guard ring for optimal CMRR and noise performance. |
| 3 | +IN | Non-inverting input - symmetrical high-impedance JFET node; must be routed with equal length and impedance to Pin 2. |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail - low-impedance connection required; decoupling capacitor (0.1µF ceramic + 1µF tantalum) must be placed adjacent to this pin. |
| 5 | OUT | Amplifier output - capable of driving ≥2kΩ loads; layout must minimize parasitic inductance when sourcing/sinking >10mA. |
| 6 | V+ | Positive supply rail - identical decoupling requirement as Pin 4; shared ground plane essential for PSRR integrity. |
| 7 | SPEED BOOST / OVERCOMP | Input stage bias control - externally configurable to trade bandwidth/stability for improved capacitive drive capability. |
| 8 | VOS TRIM | Second offset trim terminal - used with Pin 1 to form balanced null network; not internally connected to amplifier core. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed JFET op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1022CN8#PBF | Lower slew rate (23V/µs min), higher input offset voltage (250µV max), same SO-8 footprint. | Better DC precision but insufficient speed for <500ns settling requirements; suited for DC-coupled sensor interfaces. | Select LT1022CN8#PBF only when settling time is non-critical and offset voltage dominates design constraints. |
| LTC6244IS8#PBF | CMOS input (1pA IB), higher bandwidth (50MHz), but lower output drive (±11V into 2kΩ) and no Speed Boost pin. | Superior noise performance (1.5µVP-P) and rail-to-rail input, but lacks guaranteed settling time spec and unity-gain stability margin. | Choose LTC6244IS8#PBF for ultra-low-power, low-noise applications where speed is secondary to input current and noise floor. |
Compared with LT1022CN8#PBF and LTC6244IS8#PBF, the LT1122DS8#PBF uniquely combines guaranteed sub-microsecond settling, JFET input robustness against ESD and high common-mode voltages, and user-configurable bandwidth/stability via Pin 7 - making it irreplaceable in time-critical 12-bit data path conditioning.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LT1122DS8#PBF can drive stably in unity-gain configuration?
The LT1122DS8#PBF is unity-gain stable with up to 500pF capacitive load when Pin 7 (Speed Boost) is left unconnected. If Pin 7 is shorted to V+, stable drive drops to 100pF due to reduced phase margin; if a 15kΩ resistor pulls Pin 7 to ground, stable capacitive load increases to 800pF. Always verify stability with actual PCB layout parasitics using the recommended 0.1µF + 1µF supply bypass network adjacent to Pins 4 and 6. The LT1122DS8#PBF datasheet specifies these limits under standard test conditions.
Does the LT1122DS8#PBF require external compensation for gain-of-10 operation?
No, the LT1122DS8#PBF is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and remains stable at all closed-loop gains ≥1 without external compensation components. Its 60° phase margin at unity gain ensures robust performance even with moderate PCB parasitics. For gain-of-10 operation, the dominant pole is naturally shifted to ~1.4MHz, well within the 14MHz GBW envelope. The LT1122DS8#PBF maintains ≥45° phase margin across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) per its characterization data.
How does the Speed Boost terminal (Pin 7) affect power consumption of the LT1122DS8#PBF?
Shorting Pin 7 to V+ increases supply current by ~1.2mA (from 7.8mA to ~9.0mA typical), directly correlating with the 25% slew rate and bandwidth boost. Conversely, pulling Pin 7 to ground with a 15kΩ resistor draws ~1mA from that node, reducing total supply current by ~0.8mA (to ~7.0mA typical). These adjustments are linear and repeatable across the LT1122DS8#PBF production lot. Power dissipation changes remain within safe limits for the SO-8 package (θJA = 190°C/W).
Can the LT1122DS8#PBF operate from ±5V supplies?
Yes, the LT1122DS8#PBF has a minimum supply voltage of ±5V, verified by offset voltage testing at those rails. At ±5V, it delivers 35V/µs typical slew rate and 6MHz gain-bandwidth product while maintaining 120µV typical input offset voltage. Output swing reduces to ±3.8V into 2kΩ, and settling time degrades to ~500ns (still sufficient for many 12-bit applications). The LT1122DS8#PBF retains full functionality and specified AC performance down to ±5V, making it viable for low-voltage portable instrumentation.
What is the purpose of the dual VOS TRIM pins (1 and 8) on the LT1122DS8#PBF?
Pins 1 and 8 form a balanced offset null network: Pin 1 connects to the wiper of a 10kΩ–100kΩ potentiometer, while Pin 8 connects to the opposite end; the other end ties to V+. This configuration applies opposing correction currents to the input differential pair, minimizing thermal drift and common-mode sensitivity. Unlike single-potentiometer op amps, this dual-terminal scheme achieves <0.5µV/°C drift improvement. The LT1122DS8#PBF datasheet specifies ±4mV trim range at 25°C, and the network must be shielded from noise sources to avoid injecting error.
