Design Note

For this design, the gain required should be:

Equation 4. GV=-R3R1=VCOM+-VCOM-VDAC+-VDAC-=5

And the bias voltage should be:

Equation 5. VBIAS=R5R4+R5×VEE=-VDAC++VDAC-2=-1.2V

Select reasonable resistance values for R3 and R5

Equation 6. R3=50k, R5=4.7k

From Equation 4 through Equation 6, the required R1 and R4 can be calculated.

Equation 7. R1=R2=10k, R442.2k

Some parameters should be checked to make the circuits stable and robust.

Calculate the small signal circuit bandwidth using Equation 8 to ensure it is greater than the 140Hz requirement.

Equation 8. BW=GBOPA2170NG=1.2MHz1+R3R1||R2=109kHz

Where, NG is the noise gain of the inverting summer circuit.

Calculate the minimum slew rate required using Equation 9.

Equation 9. SR>2×π×fsquare×VCOM+=4.4mV/μs

The slew rate of OPA2170 is 0.4V/µs which meets the requirements.

For better stability, the zero created by the gain setting resistors and input capacitance of the OPA2170 should be greater than the bandwidth calculated in Equation 8.

Equation 10. fzero=12×π×(Ccm+Cdiff)×(R1||R2||R3)=5.8MHz>=109kHz

Where, Ccm and Cdiff are the common-mode input capacitance and differential input capacitance of the OPA2170 respectively.
