This document outlines the power requirements and performance characteristics necessary for designing preamplifiers, focusing on noise performance, bandwidth, and dynamic range. It details the expected noise figures across frequency ranges (DC to 3 MHz), bandwidth specifications for low, medium, and high frequencies, and how power influences these parameters. The text also discusses practical amplifier choices, power dissipation metrics, and realistic power supply expectations essential for achieving optimal preamp performance in various applications.

Noise + BW + Dynamic Range Noise • DC to 10 kHz, TBD nV/√Hz • 10 kHz to 700 kHz, 10 nV/√Hz • 700 kHz to 3 MHz, 3 nV/√Hz • Bandwidth • LF: DC - 64kHz; SR ≥ 4V/µs • MF: 2kHz – 1MHz; SR ≥ 60V/µs • HF: 2kHz – 20MHz; SR ≥ 1200V/µs • Dynamic Range • ±10V at LF in, x1 Gain • ±10V at MF in, x1 Gain • ±1V at HF in, x10 Gain
Some General Principles • Lower Noise = Higher Power • Higher BW = Higher Power • Larger Voltage Swings = Higher Power We sort of want Everything. What will it cost? POWER

Total Power(assuming termination load mitigation somehow) • Best case: • Run FETs, HF and MF @±5V • using AD8001, DC coupled term • Assume 100mW LF • LF = 100mW • MF = 50mW • HF = 50mW • Loads = 90mW • Total: • 290mW/preamp • X4.5 =1.26W • Worst case: • Run FETs, HF and MF @±15V • using AD844, AC coupledterm guess • Assume 150mW LF • LF = 150mW • MF = 225mW • HF = 225mW • Loads = 200mW • Total: • 800mW/preamp • X4.5 =3.4W
Total Power • One possible compromise: • Run FETs@±15V and ÷2 into MF, HF stages, DC coupledterminations • Run MF and HF at ±5V derived from ±15V using AD8001 • Assume 100mW LF • LF = 100mW • MF = 150mW • HF = 150mW • Loads = 90mW • Total: • 590mW/preamp • X4.5 =2.46W • Price: • HF, MF dynamic range smaller • HF, MF noise RTI >>2nV/√Hz
