Generally, a good high-frequency layout will keep power supply and ground traces away from the inverting input and output pins. Parasitic capacitance on these nodes to ground will cause frequency response peaking and possible circuit oscillations (see Application Note OA-15, "Frequent Faux Pas in Applying Wideband Current Feedback Amplifiers", SNOA367, for more information). Texas Instruments suggests the following evaluation boards as a guide for high frequency layout and as an aid in device testing and characterization:
DEVICE | PACKAGE | EVALUATION BOARD PN |
---|---|---|
LM7372MA | 16-Pin SOIC | None |
LM7372MR | 8-Pin SO PowerPAD | LMH730121 |
The DAP (die attach paddle) on the 8-Pin SO PowerPAD should be tied to V−. It should not be tied to ground. See the respective Evaluation Board documentation.
