Data Sheet
Application Information
Basic Operation
Figures 1 and 2 illustrate typical circuit configurations for
non-inverting, inverting, and unity gain topologies for dual
supply applications. They show the recommended bypass
capacitor values and overall closed loop gain equations.
Achieving Low Noise in an Application
Making full use of the low noise of the CLC1001 requires
careful consideration of resistor values. The feedback and
gain set resistors (R
impedance (R
can easily dominate the overall noise if their values are
too high. The datasheet is specified with an R
at which point the noise from R
the noise from the CLC1001. Lower value resistors could
be used at the expense of more distortion. Figure 3 shows

noise also increases.
The noise caused by a resistor is modeled with either a
voltage source in series with the resistance:
Or a current source in parallel with it:
Op amp noise is modeled with three noise sources, e
and i
voltage and current errors V
The noise models must be analyzed in-circuit to determine
the effect on the op amp output noise.
Since noise is statistical in nature rather than a continuous
signal, the set of noise sources in circuit add in an RMS
(root mean square) fashion rather than in a linear fashion.
For uncorrelated noise sources, this means you add the
squares of the noise voltages. A typical non-inverting
application (see figure 1) results in the following noise at
the output of the op amp:
