OPA835 OPA835 Drift Slope – Positive and Negative For this example Vos drift is defined:
Input Bias Current and Drift
Input Bias Current Input offset current: Ibos = Ib1 – Ib2 = 210nA – 150nA = 60nA
Simple Bipolar (No Ib Cancelation) Bias current in Bipolar amplifiers is from Base Current. It is typically larger then FET and it flows into the input terminals.
Bipolar with Ib Cancelation The input bias currents are mirrored and summed back in to cancel the bias current. This has the effect of significantly reducing input Ib. Note that when this is done, Ib can flow in both directions. Also Ibos is no longer smaller then Ib. Ibos = Ib1 – Ib2
Bias Current for CMOS Bias current in MOSFET amplifiers is mainly from leakage into ESD diodes.
OPA350 OPA277 Ib Over Temperature CMOS amplifier: In this case you see a dramatic increase in bias current at 25C. Note the logarithmic graph. Doubles every 10C. Bipolar amplifier: In this case you see a dramatic increase in bias current at 75C

Ex 1.1: Hand Calculations 1. Use the circuit and the excerpt of the data sheet below to calculate the maximum and tpical offset form vos.
Ex 1.1: Solution to Hand calculation This term is negligible Simplified equation has nearly the same result
Ex 2.1: Offset Schematic Two copies of the same two stage amplifier is on the board. Each two stage amplifier has four jumpers to configure the circuit.

Ex 1.1: Instrument Setup OPA211 OPA188 211: 127mV 188: 54mV The instrument setup above will configure the signal source and scope for the circuit below so that we can see the I/O limitations.
Ex 1.1: Expected Results 1. Run a “analysis>dc analysis> calculate nodal voltages>” simulation to determine output offset. 2. How did the simulated results compare to the hand calculated results.
Ex 1.2: Hand Calculations (with Rin) 1. Use the circuit and the excerpt of the data sheet below to calculate the maximum and tpical offset form vos.
Ex 1.2: Amplifier I/O PCB Setup Change the Rin jumper settings.
