Professional Audio Signal Processing—DAC Buffers

The low noise and low distortion of the AD797 make it an ideal

choice for professional audio signal processing. An ideal I-to-V

converter for a current output DAC would simply be a resistor

to ground, were it not for the fact that most DACs do not operate

linearly with voltage on their output. Standard practice is to

operate an op amp as an I-to-V converter, creating a virtual

ground at its inverting input. Normally, clock energy and current

steps must be absorbed by the op amp output stage. However, in

the configuration shown in Figure 53, Capacitor CF shunts high

frequency energy to ground while correctly reproducing the

desired output with extremely low THD and IMD.

Large area photodiodes (CS ≥ 500 pF) and certain image

detectors (amorphous Si) have optimum performance when used

in conjunction with amplifiers with very low voltage (rather than

very low current noise). Figure 51 shows the AD797 used with

an amorphous Si (CS = 1000 pF) detector. The response is adjusted

for flatness using capacitor CL, and the noise is dominated by

voltage noise amplified by the ac noise gain. The AD797’s excellent

input noise performance gives 27 μV rms total noise in a 1 MHz

bandwidth, as shown by Figure 52.
