My buffer amp modular! Execllent prefomance!

[wenye]

Hi Everybody,

It's a wonderful day that I have success in my first ever unity-gain buffer amplifier modular design and testing. I spend more then half a year to do research, circuit design, simulation, pcb design, etc. After a quick testing using AudioPrecision system two cascade (2322), I found it's preformance is very good. The modular has unmatch preformance in IMD,THD+N,niose, testing You know, in the CCIF standard IMD vs amplitude testing, when input signal over -43dBV, IMD products can not be measure by AP SYSTEM TWO(2322)!!! And got just around 0.0002% as CCIF IMD testing result when input signal level down to -50dBV!

For spectrum of THD residual testing @ 1KHz 0dBV input, all of the distortion products were lower then -120dB!!!

And output noise testing, when the input of buffer amp modular was connect to ground through a 50ohm resistor, the output noise just around 1.5uV!

DC offset, lower lower then 1mV! When input short to ground by a 50ohm resistor. And lower then 5mV,when input port connect to ground through a 100k resistor!

Haha~~~~~~~~~~~ I wanna show it to you guys, because I think I really done a good job! All of these were not simulation on pc, they are true! They are real testing result!!!!!!!!!

I think There are NONE commercial open-loop unity-gain buffer amp can reach this preformance! The following pictures will show you the testing result, the modular, and the evaluation board......
