description
These devices consist of four independent, high- symbol (each amplifier)
gain frequency-compensated Norton operational
amplifiers that were designed specifically to
operate from a single supply over a wide range of
voltages. Operation from split supplies is also IN + +
possible. The low supply current drain is OUT
essentially independent of the magnitude of the IN – –
supply voltage. These devices provide wide band-
width and large output voltage swing.
The LM2900 is characterized for operation from
– 40°C to 85°C, and the LM3900 is characterized
for operation from 0°C to 70°C.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Norton (or current-differencing) amplifiers can be used in most standard general-purpose operational amplifier
applications. Performance as a dc amplifier in a single-power-supply mode is not as precise as a standard
integrated-circuit operational amplifier operating from dual supplies. Operation of the amplifier can best be
understood by noting that input currents are differenced at the inverting input terminal and this current then flows
through the external feedback resistor to produce the output voltage. Common-mode current biasing is generally
useful to allow operating with signal levels near (or even below) ground.
Internal transistors clamp negative input voltages at approximately – 0.3 V but the magnitude of current flow has to
be limited by the external input network. For operation at high temperature, this limit should be approximately
– 100 µA.
Noise immunity of a Norton amplifier is less than that of standard bipolar amplifiers. Circuit layout is more critical since
coupling from the output to the noninverting input can cause oscillations. Care must also be exercised when driving
either input from a low-impedance source. A limiting resistor should be placed in series with the input lead to limit the
peak input current. Current up to 20 mA will not damage the device, but the current mirror on the noninverting input
will saturate and cause a loss of mirror gain at higher current levels, especially at high operating temperatures.

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)

supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
