reduces by 3dB at 490 MHz. The Noise Gain transfer function
“zero” is given by the equation below and it has a 3dB in-
crease at 32.8 MHz with these values:

CANCELLATION OF OFFSET ERRORS DUE TO INPUT
BIAS CURRENTS
The LMH6629 offers exceptional offset voltage accuracy. In
order to preserve the low offset voltage errors, care must be
taken to avoid voltage errors due to input bias currents. This
is important in both inverting and non inverting applications.
The non-inverting circuit is used here as an example. To can-
cel the bias current errors of the non-inverting configuration,
the parallel combination of the gain setting (Rg) and feedback
(Rf) resistors should equal the equivalent source resistance
(Rseq) as defined in Figure 6. Combining this constraint with
the non-inverting gain equation also seen in Figure 6 allows
both Rf and Rg to be determined explicitly from the following
equations:
Rf = AVRseq and Rg = Rf/(AV-1)

TOTAL INPUT NOISE vs. SOURCE RESISTANCE
To determine maximum signal-to-noise ratios from the
LMH6629, an understanding of the interaction between the
amplifier’s intrinsic noise sources and the noise arising from
its external resistors is necessary. Figure 8 describes the
noise model for the non-inverting amplifier configuration
showing all noise sources. In addition to the intrinsic input
voltage noise (en) and current noise (in = in+ = in−) source,
there is also thermal voltage noise (et = √(4KTR)) associated
with each of the external resistors.

FIGURE 6. Non-Inverting Amplifier Configuration
When driven from a 0Ω source, such as the output of an op
amp, the non-inverting input of the LMH6629 should be iso-
lated with at least a 25Ω series resistor.
As seen in Figure 7, bias current cancellation is accomplished
for the inverting configuration by placing a resistor (Rb) on the
non-inverting input equal in value to the resistance seen by
the inverting input (Rf || (Rg+Rs)). Rb should to be no less than
25Ω for optimum LMH6629 performance. A shunt capacitor
(not shown) can minimize the additional noise of Rb.

Equation 3 is a simplification of Equation 2 that assumes Rf ||
Rg = Rseq for bias current cancellation:
