10 Power Supply Recommendations
The OPA172-Q1 is specified for operation from 4.5 V to 36 V (±2.25 V to ±18 V); many specifications apply from
–40°C to +125°C. Parameters that can exhibit significant variance with regard to operating voltage or
temperature are presented in the Typical Characteristics section.
CAUTION
Supply voltages larger than 40 V can permanently damage the device; see the
Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Place 0.1-μF bypass capacitors close to the power-supply terminals to reduce errors coupling in from noisy or
high-impedance power supplies. For more detailed information on bypass capacitor placement, see the Layout
section.

11.1 Layout Guidelines
For best operational performance of the device, use good printed circuit board (PCB) layout practices, including:
• Noise can propagate into analog circuitry through the power pins of the circuit as a whole and of op amp
itself. Bypass capacitors are used to reduce the coupled noise by providing low-impedance power
sources local to the analog circuitry.
– Connect low-ESR, 0.1-µF ceramic bypass capacitors between each supply pin and ground, placed as
close to the device as possible. A single bypass capacitor from V+ to ground is applicable for single-
supply applications.
• Separate grounding for analog and digital portions of circuitry is one of the simplest and most-effective
methods of noise suppression. One or more layers on multilayer PCBs are usually devoted to ground
planes. A ground plane helps distribute heat and reduces EMI noise pickup. Make sure to physically
separate digital and analog grounds paying attention to the flow of the ground current.
• In order to reduce parasitic coupling, run the input traces as far away from the supply or output traces as
possible. If these traces cannot be kept separate, crossing the sensitive trace perpendicular as opposed
to in parallel with the noisy trace is preferable.
• Place the external components as close to the device as possible. As illustrated in Figure 52, keeping RF
and RG close to the inverting input minimizes parasitic capacitance.
• Keep the length of input traces as short as possible. Always remember that the input traces are the most
sensitive part of the circuit.
• Consider a driven, low-impedance guard ring around the critical traces. A guard ring can significantly
reduce leakage currents from nearby traces that are at different potentials.
