OPA388: follower cut-off frequency

Florent Bouchara

Part Number: OPA388

Hi,

I am using OPA388 in simulation and I am quite dispointed to notice that in follower configuration I obtain as low as 10kHz cut-off frequency.

Could you please tell me if this is excepted or if there might be a problem with my simualtion (I tried with TINA and LTspice, both gave me that same result) ?

Hi Florent,

The OPA388 is a 10 MHz part, a 10 kHz 3 dB frequency is not correct. We would need more information to see what might be going on, if you can post your sim. we can investigate.

Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your answer. I forward you a screnshot of the simulation.

Hi Florent,

Do you have any DC voltage set for VIN? The device will not work properly when the input is set to the exact same voltage as the negative supply rail because the output needs at least 150 mV to acheive the AOL spec.

Please check if you increase the DC voltage if the bandwidth goes up.

Mike
