The HS-2420EH is a radiation hardened monolithic circuit
consisting of a high performance operational amplifier with its
output in series with an ultra-low leakage analog switch and a
MOSFET input unity gain amplifier.
Features
• Electrically screened to SMD #5962-95669
• QML qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 requirements
With an external hold capacitor connected to the switch
output, a versatile high performance sample-and-hold or
track-and-hold circuit is formed. When the switch is closed, the
device behaves as an operational amplifier and any of the
standard op amp feedback networks may be connected
around the device to control gain, frequency response, etc.
When the switch is opened, the output will remain at its last
level.
• Maximum acquisition time
- 10V Step to 0.1% . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4µs
- 10V Step to 0.01%. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6µs
• Maximum drift current . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10nA
(maximum over-temperature)
• TTL compatible control input
• Power supply rejection . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 80dB
Performance as a sample-and-hold compares very favorably
with other monolithic, hybrid, modular and discrete circuits.
Accuracy to better than 0.01% is achievable over the
temperature range. Fast acquisition is coupled with superior
droop characteristics, even at high temperatures. High slew
rate, wide bandwidth and low acquisition time produce
excellent dynamic characteristics. The ability to operate at
gains greater than 1 frequently eliminates the need for
external scaling amplifiers.
• Radiation tolerance
- High dose rate (50 to 300rad(Si)/s) . . . . . . . . 100krad(Si)
- Low dose rate (0.01rad(Si)/s) . . . . . . . . . . . . 100krad(Si)*
* Only the EH device is wafer-by-wafer acceptance tested at
the low dose rate and guaranteed to 50krad(Si). The
100krad(Si) limit is established by characterization only.
• No latch-up
The device may also be used as a versatile operational
amplifier with a gated output for applications such as analog
switches, peak holding circuits, etc.
Applications
• Data acquisition systems
• D to A deglitcher
• Auto zero systems
• Peak detector
