Product Details
The AD8682 and AD8684 are dual and quad low power, precision (1 mV) JFET amplifiers featuring excellent speed at low supply currents. The slew rate is typically 9 V/μs with a supply current under 250 μA per amplifier. These unity-gain stable amplifiers have a typical gain bandwidth of 3.5 MHz. The JFET input stage ensures bias current is typically a few picoamps and below 125 pA maximum over the full temperature operating range.
The devices are ideal for portable, low power applications, especially with high source impedance. The devices are unity gain stable and can drive higher capacity loads (G = 1, noninverting), as an example of their excellent dynamic response over a wide range of conditions, delivering dc precision performance at low quiescent currents.

Tools & Simulations
LTspice
LTspice® is a powerful, fast and free simulation software, schematic capture and waveform viewer with enhancements and models for improving the simulation of analog circuits.

Models for the following parts are available in LTspice:
Design Tools
Use the Analog Filter Wizard to design low-pass, high-pass, or band-pass filters with actual op amps in minutes. As you progress through the design process, you can observe the characteristics of your filter design from ideal specifications to real world circuit behavior. Quickly evaluate the tradeoffs in op amp specifications - including gain-bandwidth, noise, and supply current – to determine the best filter design for your requirements.
Use Photodiode Wizard to design a transimpedance amplifier circuit to interface with a photodiode. Select a photodiode from the library included in the tool, or enter custom photodiode specifications. Quickly observe tradeoffs between Bandwidth, Peaking (Q), and ENOB/SNR. Modify circuit parameters, and immediately see results in plots for pulse response, frequency response, and noise gain.
Design Resources
ADI has always placed the highest emphasis on delivering products that meet the maximum levels of quality and reliability. We achieve this by incorporating quality and reliability checks in every scope of product and process design, and in the manufacturing process as well. "Zero defects" for shipped products is always our goal.
