Figure 63. Noise Model
The total equivalent input noise density (e_ni) is calculated by using the following equation:
Ǹ _{ǒ Ǔ eni + ǒenǓ}² _{) ǒIN ) RSǓ}² _{) IN– ǒRF ø RGǓ} ² _{) 4 kTRs ) 4 kTǒRF ø RGǓ}
Where:
k = Boltzmann’s constant = 1.380658 × 10^−23
T = Temperature in degrees Kelvin (273 +°C)
R_F || R_G = Parallel resistance of R_F and R_G
To get the equivalent output noise of the amplifier, just multiply the equivalent input noise density (e_ni) by the
overall amplifier gain (A_V).

(noninverting case)
As the previous equations show, to keep noise at a minimum, small value resistors should be used. As the
closed-loop gain is increased (by reducing R_G), the input noise is reduced considerably because of the parallel
resistance term. This leads to the general conclusion that the most dominant noise sources are the source
resistor (R_S) and the internal amplifier noise voltage (e_n). Because noise is summed in a root-mean-squares
method, noise sources smaller than 25% of the largest noise source can be effectively ignored. This can greatly
simplify the formula and make noise calculations much easier to calculate.
