LT1190 UUWUAPPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Power Supply Bypassing In most applications, and those requiring good settling time, it is important to use multiple bypass capacitors. A The LT1190 is quite tolerant of power supply bypassing. 0.1µF ceramic disc in parallel with a 4.7µF tantalum is In some applications a 0.1µF ceramic disc capacitor recommended. Two oscilloscope photos with different placed 1/2 inch from the amplifier is all that is required. A bypass conditions are used to illustrate the settling time scope photo of the amplifier output with no supply characteristics of the amplifier. Note that although the bypassing is used to demonstrate this bypassing toler- output waveform looks acceptable at 1V/DIV, when ampli- ance, RL = 1kΩ. fied to 1mV/DIV the settling time to 2mV is 4.244µs for the 0.1µF bypass; the time drops to 163ns with multiple No Supply Bypass Capacitors bypass capacitors.

It is possible to see a slight 1dB rise in SETTLING TIME TO 2mV, AV = –1 SUPPLY BYPASS CAPACITORS = 0.1µF the frequency response at 130MHz depending on the gain configuration, supply bypass, inductance in the supply Settling Time Good Bypass leads and printed circuit board layout. This can be further minimized by not using a socket.
