LMC6001
Ultra Ultra-Low Input Current Amplifier
can achieve higher signal to noise ratio than JFET input type
electrometer amplifiers. Other applications of the LMC6001
include long interval integrators, ultra-high input impedance
instrumentation amplifiers, and sensitive electrical-field mea-
surement circuits.
General Description
Featuring 100% tested input currents of 25 fA max., low op-
erating power, and ESD protection of 2000V, the LMC6001
achieves a new industry benchmark for low input current op-
erational amplifiers. By tightly controlling the molding com-
pound, National is able to offer this ultra-low input current in
a lower cost molded package.
Features
(Max limit, 25˚C unless otherwise noted)
n Input current (100% tested): 25 fA
n Input current over temp.: 2 pA
n Low power: 750 µA
To avoid long turn-on settling times common in other low in-
put current opamps, the LMC6001A is tested 3 times in the
first minute of operation. Even units that meet the 25 fA limit
are rejected if they drift.

n Low VOS
:
350 µV
Because of the ultra-low input current noise of 0.13 fA/ Hz,
the LMC6001 can provide almost noiseless amplification of
high resistance signal sources. Adding only 1 dB at 100 kΩ,
0.1 dB at 1 MΩ and 0.01 dB or less from 10 MΩ to 2,000 MΩ,
the LMC6001 is an almost noiseless amplifier.

@
n Low noise: 22 nV/ Hz 1 kHz Typ.
Applications
n Electrometer amplifier
n Photodiode preamplifier
n Ion detector
The LMC6001 is ideally suited for electrometer applications
requiring ultra-low input leakage such as sensitive photode-
tection transimpedance amplifiers and sensor amplifiers.
n A.T.E. leakage testing

op-amps. These features make the LMC6001 both easier to
design with, and provide higher speed than products typi-
cally found in this low power class.
The LMC6001 incorporates a novel op-amp design topology
that enables it to maintain rail-to-rail output swing even when
driving a large load. Instead of relying on a push-pull unity
gain output buffer stage, the output stage is taken directly
from the internal integrator, which provides both low output
impedance and large gain. Special feed-forward compensa-
tion design techniques are incorporated to maintain stability
over a wider range of operating conditions than traditional
COMPENSATING FOR INPUT CAPACITANCE
It is quite common to use large values of feedback resis-
tance for amplifiers with ultra-low input current, like the
LMC6001.

Applications Hints (Continued)
Although the LMC6001 is highly stable over a wide range of
operating conditions, certain precautions must be met to
achieve the desired pulse response when a large feedback
resistor is used. Large feedback resistors with even small
values of input capacitance, due to transducers, photo-
diodes, and circuit board parasitics, reduce phase margins.
When high input impedances are demanded, guarding of the
LMC6001 is suggested. Guarding input lines will not only re-
duce leakage, but lowers stray input capacitance as well.
(See Printed-Circuit-Board Layout for High Impedance
Work).
The effect of input capacitance can be compensated for by
adding a capacitor, Cf, around the feedback resistors (as in
Figure 1 ) such that:
DS011887-6
FIGURE 2. LMC6001 Noninverting Gain of 10 Amplifier,
Compensated to Handle Capacitive Loads
or
R1 CIN ≤ R2 Cf
Since it is often difficult to know the exact value of CIN, Cf can
be experimentally adjusted so that the desired pulse re-
sponse is achieved. Refer to the LMC660 and LMC662 for a
more detailed discussion on compensating for input
capacitance.
In the circuit of Figure 2, R1 and C1 serve to counteract the
loss of phase margin by feeding the high frequency compo-
nent of the output signal back to the amplifier’s inverting in-
put, thereby preserving phase margin in the overall feedback
loop.
Capacitive load driving capability is enhanced by using a pul-
lup resistor to V+ (Figure 3). Typically a pullup resistor con-
ducting 500 µA or more will significantly improve capacitive
load responses. The value of the pullup resistor must be de-
termined based on the current sinking capability of the ampli-
fier with respect to the desired output swing. Open loop gain
of the amplifier can also be affected by the pullup resistor
(see Electrical Characteristics).
DS011887-5
FIGURE 1. Cancelling the Effect of Input Capacitance
CAPACITIVE LOAD TOLERANCE
All rail-to-rail output swing operational amplifiers have volt-
age gain in the output stage. A compensation capacitor is
normally included in this integrator stage. The frequency lo-
cation of the dominant pole is affected by the resistive load
on the amplifier. Capacitive load driving capability can be op-
timized by using an appropriate resistive load in parallel with
the capacitive load (see Typical Curves).
DS011887-7
FIGURE 3. Compensating for Large Capacitive
Loads with a Pullup Resistor
PRINTED-CIRCUIT-BOARD LAYOUT
FOR HIGH-IMPEDANCE WORK
Direct capacitive loading will reduce the phase margin of
many op-amps. A pole in the feedback loop is created by the
combination of the op-amp’s output impedance and the ca-
pacitive load. This pole induces phase lag at the unity-gain
crossover frequency of the amplifier resulting in either an os-
cillatory or underdamped pulse response. With a few exter-
nal components, op amps can easily indirectly drive capaci-
tive loads, as shown in Figure 2.
It is generally recognized that any circuit which must operate
with less than 1000 pA of leakage current requires special
layout of the PC board. When one wishes to take advantage
of the ultra-low bias current of the LMC6001, typically less
than 10 fA, it is essential to have an excellent layout. Fortu-
nately, the techniques of obtaining low leakages are quite
simple. First, the user must not ignore the surface leakage of
the PC board, even though it may sometimes appear accept-
ably low, because under conditions of high humidity or dust
or contamination, the surface leakage will be appreciable.
To minimize the effect of any surface leakage, lay out a ring
of foil completely surrounding the LMC6001’s inputs and the
terminals of capacitors, diodes, conductors, resistors, relay
terminals, etc., connected to the op-amp’s inputs, as in Fig-
www.national.com
8
The designer should be aware that when it is inappropriate
to lay out a PC board for the sake of just a few circuits, there
is another technique which is even better than a guard ring
on a PC board: Don’t insert the amplifier’s input pin into the
board at all, but bend it up in the air and use only air as an in-
sulator. Air is an excellent insulator. In this case you may
have to forego some of the advantages of PC board con-
struction, but the advantages are sometimes well worth the
effort of using point-to-point up-in-the-air wiring. See Figure
6.

ure 4. To have a significant effect, guard rings should be
placed on both the top and bottom of the PC board. This PC
foil must then be connected to a voltage which is at the same
voltage as the amplifier inputs, since no leakage current can
flow between two points at the same potential. For example,
a PC board trace-to-pad resistance of 1012Ω, which is nor-
mally considered a very large resistance, could leak 5 pA if
the trace were a 5V bus adjacent to the pad of the input.
This would cause
a 500 times degradation from the
LMC6001’s actual performance. If a guard ring is used and
held within 1 mV of the inputs, then the same resistance of
1012Ω will only cause 10 fA of leakage current. Even this
small amount of leakage will degrade the extremely low input
current performance of the LMC6001. See Figure 5 for typi-
cal connections of guard rings for standard op-amp
configurations.
DS011887-12
(Input pins are lifted out of PC board and soldered directly to components.
All other pins connected to PC board).
FIGURE 6. Air Wiring
Another potential source of leakage that might be over-
looked is the device package. When the LMC6001 is manu-
factured, the device is always handled with conductive finger
cots. This is to assure that salts and skin oils do not cause
leakage paths on the surface of the package. We recom-
mend that these same precautions be adhered to, during all
phases of inspection, test and assembly.
DS011887-8
FIGURE 4. Examples of Guard
Ring in PC Board Layout
Latchup
CMOS devices tend to be susceptible to latchup due to their
internal parasitic SCR effects. The (I/O) input and output pins
look similar to the gate of the SCR. There is a minimum cur-
rent required to trigger the SCR gate lead. The LMC6001 is
designed to withstand 100 mA surge current on the I/O pins.
Some resistive method should be used to isolate any capaci-
tance from supplying excess current to the I/O pins. In addi-
tion, like an SCR, there is a minimum holding current for any
latchup mode. Limiting current to the supply pins will also in-
hibit latchup susceptibility.
Typical Applications
DS011887-9
The extremely high input resistance, and low power con-
sumption, of the LMC6001 make it ideal for applications that
require battery-powered instrumentation amplifiers. Ex-
amples of these types of applications are hand-held pH
probes, analytic medical instruments, electrostatic field de-
tectors and gas chromotographs.

Compensated pH Probe Amplifier
Non-Inverting Amplifier
The signal from a pH probe has a typical resistance between
10 MΩ and 1000 MΩ. Because of this high value, it is very
important that the amplifier input currents be as small as
possible. The LMC6001 with less than 25 fA input current is
an ideal choice for this application.
The theoretical output of the standard Ag/AgCl pH probe is
59.16 mV/pH at 25˚C with 0V out at a pH of 7.00. This output
is proportional to absolute temperature. To compensate for
this, a temperature compensating resistor, R1, is placed in

the feedback loop. This cancels the temperature depen-
dence of the probe. This resistor must be mounted where it
will be at the same temperature as the liquid being mea-
sured.
The setup and calibration is simple with no interactions to
cause problems.
1. Disconnect the pH probe and with R3 set to about
mid-range and the noninverting input of the LMC6001
grounded, adjust R8 until the output is 700 mV.
The LMC6001 amplifies the probe output providing a scaled
±
voltage of 100 mV/pH from a pH of 7. The second opamp,
a micropower LMC6041 provides phase inversion and offset
so that the output is directly proportional to pH, over the full
range of the probe. The pH reading can now be directly dis-
played on a low cost, low power digital panel meter. Total
current consumption will be about 1 mA for the whole sys-
tem.
2. Apply −414.1 mV to the noninverting input of the
LMC6001. Adjust R3 for and output of 1400 mV. This
completes the calibration. As real pH probes may not
perform exactly to theory, minor gain and offset adjust-
ments should be made by trimming while measuring a
precision buffer solution.
The micropower dual operational amplifier, LMC6042, would
optimize power consumption but not offer these advantages:
