4.5 Volt Low Dropout, Low Power Reference
The rail-to-rail performance of the AD820 can be used to pro-
vide low dropout performance for low power reference circuits
powered with a single low voltage supply. Figure 45 shows a
4.5 volt reference using the AD820 and the AD680, a low power
2.5 volt bandgap reference. R2 and R3 set up the required gain
of 1.8 to develop the 4.5 volt output. R1 and C2 form a low-
pass RC filter to reduce the noise contribution of the AD680.

Low Power Three-Pole Sallen Key Low-Pass Filter
The AD820’s high input impedance makes it a good selection
for active filters. High value resistors can be used to construct
low frequency filters with capacitors much less than 1 µF. The
AD820’s picoamp level input currents contribute minimal dc
errors.
Figure 46 shows an example, a 10 Hz three-pole Sallen Key
Filter. The high value used for R1 minimizes interaction with
signal source resistance. Pole placement in this version of the
filter minimizes the Q associated with the two-pole section of
the filter. This eliminates any peaking of the noise contribution
of resistors R1, R2, and R3, thus minimizing the inherent out-
put voltage noise of the filter.

Figure 45. Single Supply 4.5 Volt Low Dropout Reference
With a 1 mA load, this reference maintains the 4.5 volt output
with a supply voltage down to 4.7 volts. The amplitude of the
recovery transient for a 1 mA to 10 mA step change in load
current is under 20 mV, and settles out in a few microseconds.
Output voltage noise is less than 10 µV rms in a 25 kHz noise
bandwidth.
