With the recently introduced wide-band op amp OPA622, Burr-Brown has reached a new height in op amp design. In the past, engineers designing a circuit with feedback had to choose between voltage and current feedback according to the requirements of their particular applications. Both feedback types involve a trade-off. The current-feedback structures available up to now use their symmetrical circuit design and short feedback loop to process wide-band analog signals, while the traditional voltage-feedback amplifiers provide more optimized DC performance but slow down the signal processing rate. But with the OPA622, an IC is available that can be configured for both modes.
