10.1 Layout Guidelines

In order to capitalize on the LMP7721’s ultra-low input bias current, careful circuit layout and assembly are required. Guarding techniques are highly recommended to reduce parasitic leakage current by isolating the LMP7721’s input from large voltage gradients across the PC board. A guard is a low-impedance conductor that surrounds an input line and its potential is raised to the input line’s voltage. The input pins should be fully guarded as shown in Figure 54. The guard traces should completely encircle the input connections. In addition, they should be located on both sides of the PCB and be connected together.

To further guard the inputs from the supply pins, the two N/C pins may be connected to the guard trace which will provide guarding down to the leadframe level.

Solder mask should not cover the input and the guard area including guard traces on either side of the PCB.

Keep switching power supplies and other noise-producing devices away from the input area.
