- Higher bandwidth (vs LMC6484IMX)
Design Notes
Provide adequate power supply decoupling with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors placed close to the V+ and V- pins. For high-frequency noise, add a 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel. This is critical for maintaining the low noise performance of the AD8513ARZ, as power supply noise can couple into the signal path.
For high-impedance sources, use a guard ring around the input pins to reduce leakage currents. This is especially important for photodiode and pH probe applications where input bias current is critical. The guard ring should be driven by a low-impedance source at the same potential as the input pins.
Avoid exceeding the absolute maximum supply voltage of ±18 V. Also, ensure that the input common-mode voltage does not exceed the supply rails. The AD8513ARZ is not a rail-to-rail input op amp, so input signals must stay within the specified common-mode range to avoid distortion.
