Application Note 61Figure 20 shows the response (trace B) to a 1mV inputstep (trace A). The output is clean, with no overshoots oruncontrolled components. If A2 is replaced with a fasterdevice (e.g., LT1055) speed increases by an order ofmagnitude with similar damping. A2’s optional overcompensationcan be used (capacitor to ground) to optimizeresponse for low closed-loop gains.A = 500µV/DIVB = 5V/DIV100µs/DIVAN61 F20Figure 20. Step Response for the Low Noise × 10,000Amplifier. A 10× Speed Increase Is Obtainable byReplacing A2 with a Faster DeviceHigh Speed Adaptive Trigger CircuitLine receivers often require an adaptive trigger to compensatefor variations in signal amplitude and DC offsets. Thecircuit in Figure 21 triggers on 2mV to 100mV signals from100Hz to 10MHz while operating from a single 5V rail. A1,operating at a gain of 20, provides wideband AC gain. Theoutput of this stage biases a 2-way peak detector (Q1-Q4).The maximum peak is stored in Q2’s emitter capacitor,while the minimum excursion is retained in Q4’s emittercapacitor. The DC value of A1’s output signal’s midpointappears at the junction of the 500pF capacitor and the10MΩ units. This point always sits midway between thesignal’s excursions, regardless of absolute amplitude.This signal-adaptive voltage is buffered by A2 to set thetrigger voltage at the LT1116’s positive input. The LT1116’snegative input is biased directly from A1’s output. TheLT1116’s output, the circuit’s output, is unaffected by 50:1signal amplitude variations. Bandwidth limiting in A1 doesnot affect triggering because the adaptive trigger thresholdvaries ratiometrically to maintain circuit output.Split supply versions of this circuit can achieve bandwidthsto 50MHz with wider input operating range (SeeReference 7).5V3k5VQ1Q25V2k750Ω+A1LT1192–1kQ30.005µF0.005µFQ4500pF3M3M+–5VA2LT1006+10µFINPUT0.01µF+50ΩC1100µFC20.1µFNPN = 2N3904PNP = 2N39063k500Ω1N41481N4148500Ω0.1µF+–5VLT1116QQTRIGGEROUTAN61 F21Figure 21.
