7.3.8 Overload Recovery

Overload recovery is defined as the time required for the op amp output to recover from a saturated state to

a linear state. The output devices of the op amp enter a saturation region when the output voltage exceeds

the rated operating voltage, either due to the high input voltage or the high gain. After the device enters the

saturation region, the charge carriers in the output devices require time to return back to the linear state. After

the charge carriers return back to the linear state, the device begins to slew at the specified slew rate. Thus, the

propagation delay in case of an overload condition is the sum of the overload recovery time and the slew time.

The overload recovery time for the OPAx992 is approximately 170 ns.

7.3.9 Typical Specifications and Distributions

Designers often have questions about a typical specification of an amplifier in order to design a more robust

circuit. Due to natural variation in process technology and manufacturing procedures, every specification of an

amplifier will exhibit some amount of deviation from the ideal value, like an amplifier's input offset voltage. These

deviations often follow Gaussian ("bell curve"), or normal distributions, and circuit designers can leverage this

information to guardband their system, even when there is not a minimum or maximum specification in the

Electrical Characteristics table.

Figure 7-11. Ideal Gaussian Distribution

The Figure 7-11 figure shows an example distribution, where µ, or mu, is the mean of the distribution, and

where σ, or sigma, is the standard deviation of a system. For a specification that exhibits this kind of distribution,

approximately two-thirds (68.26%) of all units can be expected to have a value within one standard deviation, or

one sigma, of the mean (from µ–σ to µ+σ).

Depending on the specification, values listed in the typical column of the Electrical Characteristics table are

represented in different ways. As a general rule of thumb, if a specification naturally has a nonzero mean

(for example, like gain bandwidth), then the typical value is equal to the mean (µ). However, if a specification

naturally has a mean near zero (like input offset voltage), then the typical value is equal to the mean plus one

standard deviation (µ + σ) in order to most accurately represent the typical value.

You can use this chart to calculate approximate probability of a specification in a unit; for example, for OPAx992,

the typical input voltage offset is 210 µV. So 68.2% of all OPAx992 devices are expected to have an offset from
