PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD704 is a quad, low power bipolar op amp that has the
low input bias current of a BiFET amplifier but which offers a
significantly lower I
B
drift over temperature. It utilizes Super-
beta bipolar input transistors to achieve picoampere input bias
current levels (similar to FET input amplifiers at room tempera-
ture), while its I
B
typically only increases by 5× at +125°C
(unlike a BiFET amp, for which I
B
doubles every 10°C resulting
in a 1000× increase at +125°C). Furthermore the AD704
achieves 75 µV offset voltage and low noise characteristics of a
precision bipolar input op amp.

AD704
Since it has only 1/20 the input bias current of an AD OP07, the
AD704 does not require the commonly used “balancing”
resistor. Furthermore, the current noise is 1/5 that of the
AD OP07 which makes the AD704 usable with much higher
source impedances. At 1/6 the supply current (per amplifier) of
the AD OP07, the AD704 is better suited for today’s higher
density circuit boards and battery powered applications.
The AD704 is an excellent choice for use in low frequency
active filters in 12- and 14-bit data acquisition systems, in
precision instrumentation, and as a high quality integrator. The
AD704 is internally compensated for unity gain and is available
in five performance grades. The AD704J and AD704K are rated
over the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The
AD704A and AD704B are rated over the industrial temperature
of –40°C to +85°C. The AD704T is rated over the military
temperature range of –55°C to +125°C and is available
processed to MIL-STD-883B, Rev. C.
