7.3.5 Common-Mode Voltage Range

The OPAx992 is a 40-V, true rail-to-rail input operational amplifier with an input common-mode range that

extends to both supply rails. This wide range is achieved with paralleled complementary N-channel and P-

channel differential input pairs, as shown in Figure 7-8. The N-channel pair is active for input voltages close to

the positive rail, typically from (V+) – 1 V to the positive supply. The P-channel pair is active for inputs from the

negative supply to approximately (V+) – 2 V. There is a small transition region, typically (V+) – 2 V to (V+) – 1

V, in which both input pairs are on. This transition region can vary modestly with process variation. Within this

region PSRR, CMRR, offset voltage, offset drift, noise, and THD performance may be degraded compared to

operation outside this region.

Figure 6-5 shows this transition region for a typical device in terms of input voltage offset in more detail.

7.3.6 Phase Reversal Protection

The OPAx992 family has internal phase-reversal protection. Many op amps exhibit a phase reversal when the

input is driven beyond its linear common-mode range. This condition is most often encountered in non-inverting

circuits when the input is driven beyond the specified common-mode voltage range, causing the output to

reverse into the opposite rail. The OPAx992 is a rail-to-rail input op amp; therefore, the common-mode range can

extend up to the rails. Input signals beyond the rails do not cause phase reversal; instead, the output limits into

the appropriate rail. This performance is shown in Figure 7-9. For more information on phase reversal, see Op

Amps With Complementary-Pair Input Stages application note.
