large-signal bandwidths and ultralow distortion. The AD8036
achieves –66 dBc at 20 MHz, and 240 MHz small-signal and
195 MHz large-signal bandwidths. The AD8036 and AD8037’s
recover from 2× clamp overdrive within 1.5 ns. These character-
istics position the AD8036/AD8037 ideally for driving as well as
buffering flash and high resolution ADCs.
In addition to traditional output clamp amplifier applications,
the input clamp architecture supports the clamp levels as addi-
tional inputs to the amplifier. As such, in addition to static dc
clamp levels, signals with speeds up to 240 MHz can be applied
to the clamp pins. The clamp values can also be set to any value
within the output voltage range provided that VH is greater that
VL. Due to these clamp characteristics, the AD8036 and AD8037
can be used in nontraditional applications such as a full-wave
rectifier, a pulse generator, or an amplitude modulator. These
novel applications are only examples of some of the diverse
applications which can be designed with input clamps.
The AD8036 is offered in chips, industrial (–40°C to +85°C)
and military (–55°C to +125°C) package temperature ranges
and the AD8037 in industrial. Industrial versions are available
in plastic DIP and SOIC; MIL versions are packaged in cerdip.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8036 and AD8037 are wide bandwidth, low distortion
clamping amplifiers. The AD8036 is unity gain stable. The
AD8037 is stable at a gain of two or greater. These devices
allow the designer to specify a high (VCH) and low (VCL) output
clamp voltage. The output signal will clamp at these specified
levels. Utilizing a unique patent pending CLAMPIN™ input
clamp architecture, the AD8036 and AD8037 offer a 10×
improvement in clamp performance compared to traditional
output clamping devices. In particular, clamp error is typically
3 mV or less and distortion in the clamp region is minimized.
This product can be used as a classical op amp or a clamp
amplifier where a high and low output voltage are specified.
The AD8036 and AD8037, which utilize a voltage feedback
architecture, meet the requirements of many applications which
previously depended on current feedback amplifiers. The AD8036
and AD8037 exhibit an exceptionally fast and accurate pulse
response (16 ns to 0.01%), extremely wide small-signal and

NOTES
1Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2Specification is for device in free air:
8-Lead Plastic DIP: θJA = 90°C/W
8-Lead SOIC: θJA = 155°C/W
8-Lead Cerdip: θJA = 110°C/W.
MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by these
devices is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature.
The maximum safe junction temperature for plastic encapsulated
devices is determined by the glass transition temperature of the
plastic, approximately 150°C. Exceeding this limit temporarily
may cause a shift in parametric performance due to a change
in the stresses exerted on the die by the package. Exceeding
a junction temperature of 175°C for an extended period can
result in device failure.
While the AD8036 and AD8037 are internally short circuit pro-
tected, this may not be sufficient to guarantee that the maxi-
mum junction temperature (150°C) is not exceeded under all
conditions. To ensure proper operation, it is necessary to observe
the maximum power derating curves.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD8036/AD8037 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur
on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions
are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
