8.3 Power Supply Recommendations

The BUF802 is intended to operate with supplies ranging from ±4.5 V to ±6.5 V. The BUF802 operates on either single-sided supplies or split supplies. When using split supplies, the supplies are symmetrically balanced around GND or asymmetric. For best ac performance, center the input and output signal around the mid-supply.

Minimize the distance between the power-supply pins and decoupling capacitors. Place the high-frequency capacitors (< 0.1 µF) close to the supply-pins, and on the same side of the PCB as the BUF802. Place larger capacitors (> 1 µF) further away from the device. Section 8.4 has additional details on decoupling capacitor layout and routing.

The BUF802 has two sets of supply pins:

  • VS+ and VS–
  • VSO+ and VSO 

The separation of the input- and output-stage supply pins minimizes spurious crosstalk and maximizes transient decoupling between the two stages. Section 7.2 shows how both sets of supply pins are internally connected through back-to-back diodes. Therefore, connect the supply pins for the input and output stages to the same potential. Maintain separate and individual decoupling capacitors for all the supply pins; see also Section 8.4.
