2.2 Optimizingthe Input-Transistor
CollectorCurrent
To determine an optimum collector current for the
LM394 input pair, we measured'thenoise performancetn
our laboratoryfrom severalsamples,using models.techniques,and computerprogramssimilar to thosegiven by
of the
Motchenbacher
and Fitchen[5]. Two measurements
noisein a2}-kHzbandwidth,one with a shortedinput and
the other with a known sourceimpedance,were taken at
eightcollectorcurrentsrangingfrom 400 pA to 4 mA. The
2O-kHz bandwidth data for each collector current were
first convertedto a valueof noise-voltage
spectraldensity
and of noise-currentspectraldensity with a noise-model
program.Then a polynomialregression
