7.3.3 Input Bias Current Clock Feedthrough

Zero-drift amplifiers, such as the OPAx187, use switching on the inputs to correct for the intrinsic offset and drift of the amplifier. Charge injection from the integrated switches on the inputs can introduce very short transients in the input bias current of the amplifier. An extremely short duration prevents these pulses from being amplified; however, the pulses may be coupled to the output of the amplifier through the feedback network. The most effective method to prevent transients in the input bias current from producing additional noise at the amplifier output is to use a low-pass filter such as an RC network.
