MOTM

hello list. i am running out of no-clean solder that i've gotten from paul over many kits and was wondering what to order. does anyone have a mouser part number?

thanks!

Hi Chris -

Oooh, pick me, pick me! :-) (Although it's been a while...)

The input bias current into the minus input causes a voltage drop
across the input resistors. This would then be amplified and to
compensate for this, that resistor is added on plus input to generate
an equal voltage on the plus input. Net effect should then be zero at
the output.

It is a carbon resistor, with a 200-250 ppm temp coef. The resistors
on the minus input are much better, so you get temperature drift.

According to the Musical Engineer's Handbook (Bernie Hutchins, 1975), 3a
(10), "The purpose of the resistor is to compensate for the offset due
to the current that actually flows into the other input." It is
important to use in precision DC summing circuits. The MEH also tells
how to calculate the value. I've wondered how important this resistor
is in an inverting summer. I don't know the answers to question #2.

This is correct but only half the answer. Keep going.............

This is sort of a "hand waving" answer you write on a test when you forgot
the real answer :)

Well that part is correct.

Application dependent.

I don't know the answers to question #2.

My guess is that it's probably a relict from a circuit that used an opamp with higher input bias current.
The MXL1014 would probably just work as well with the + input tied directly to GND.

Bad effect? *Theoretically* that resistor increases noise, and EMI receptivity, if not bypassed with a cap. But certainly not here
in this application, summing large controll voltages, so I can't really think of any bad effect!

JH.

I vaguely recall discussion of audio mixer circuitry where the reason to
omit the resistor was that it adds noise. If that's right, I guess here you
make the tradeoff that less offset is more important than less noise. It
looks like for example the audio input mixer on the 440 filter does not have
a resistor on the + input.

What would compensate for it... I would guess the fact that the oscillator
core is basically integrating the noise and acts like an LPF?
