AD743HOW CHIP PACKAGE TYPE AND POWER DISSIPATION300AFFECT INPUT BIAS CURRENT As with all JFET input amplifiers, the input bias current of the AD743 is a direct function of device junction temperature, TA = +25 C I JA = 165 C/W B approximately doubling every 10°C. Figure 8 shows the rela- 200 tionship between the bias current and the junction temperature for the AD743. This graph shows that lowering the junction temperature will dramatically improve IB.

Input Bias Current vs. Junction Temperature TA The dc thermal properties of an IC can be closely approximated CASE by using the simple model of Figure 9, where current represents A + B = JC power dissipation, voltage represents temperature, and resistors Figure 11. Breakdown of Various Package Thermal represent thermal resistance ( in °C/W). Resistances T JJCCAREDUCED POWER SUPPLY OPERATION FOR LOWER IB Reduced power supply operation lowers I PJA B in two ways: first, by INTA lowering both the total power dissipation and second, by reduc- ing the basic gate-to-junction leakage (Figure 10). Figure 12 P shows a 40 dB gain piezoelectric transducer amplifier, which IN = DEVICE DISSIPATIONTA = AMBIENT TEMPERATURE operates without an ac-coupling capacitor over the –40°C to TJ = JUNCTION TEMPERATURE +85°C temperature range. If the optional coupling capacitor is JC = THERMAL RESISTANCE—JUNCTION TO CASE CA = THERMAL RESISTANCE—CASE TO AMBIENT used, this circuit will operate over the entire –55°C to +125°C military temperature range. Figure 9. Device Thermal Model 100 ⍀ 10k ⍀ From this model, TJ = TA + JA PIN. Therefore, IB can be deter- mined in a particular application by using Figure 8 together with C1* the published data for 108 ⍀ **CT** JA and power dissipation. The user can +5V modify JA by using of an appropriate clip-on heat sink, such as the Aavid No. 5801. JA is also a variable when using the AD743 AD743TRANSDUCER in chip form. Figure 10 shows the bias current versus the supply voltage with CT108 ⍀ JA as the third variable. This graph can be used to –5V predict bias current after JA has been computed. Again, bias cur- rent will double for every 10°C. The designer using the AD743 *OPTIONAL DC BLOCKING CAPACITOR **OPTIONAL, SEE TEXT in chip form (Figure 11) must also be concerned with both Figure 12. Piezoelectric Transducer JC and CA, since JC can be affected by the type of die mount technology used. Typically, JC will be in the 3°C/W to 5°C/W range; therefore, for normal packages, this small power dissipation level may be ignored. But, with a large hybrid substrate, JC will dominate proportionately more of the total JA. REV.
