AD 8066 problems - Page 3

Yes, good suggestions.

Speaking of C4, another item on the wishlist is that the cap shouldn't span the output resistor. I was only thinking of schematic prettiness when I did it that way. It's clearly wrong.

If you leave the pot out, it's easy to get the behavior you want with low resistor values.
I think this is an elegant way to balance the input currents (R3 could be a resistor and a pot in series):

I'm sorry if the zobel network on the output is confusing. It has nothing to do with balancing the bias currents. It's the JFET on the input that does the job. Since LM6171 is supposed to be cranky, I added it for increased stability with capacitive loads.



A buffer in front of the opamp is another option:


A compromise. I think most sources has low enough output impedance for those values. A drawback is that the input impedance will vary with the volume setting.

... and this is why I don't like those high resistor values:

Noise is 10x higher


vs that of the 1:st schematic above


The frequency response looks like this


vs this

... and finally pulse response


The little peak is beacuse of the zobel.

The images is very visible both at home and at work. It must be your internet provider.
