PRODUCTION DATA
The OPAx365 devices incorporate internal electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuits on all pins. In the case of input and output pins, this protection primarily consists of current steering diodes connected between the input and power-supply pins. These ESD protection diodes also provide in-circuit, input overdrive protection, provided that the current is limited to 10 mA, as stated in Section 7.1. Figure 8-2 shows how a series input resistor can be added to the driven input to limit the input current. The added resistor contributes thermal noise at the amplifier input and the value must be kept to the minimum in noise-sensitive applications.
