e) Socketing a high-speed part is not
recommended. The additional lead length and
pin-to-pin capacitance introduced by the socket can
create an extremely troublesome parasitic network
which can make it almost impossible to achieve a
smooth, stable frequency response. Best results are
obtained by soldering the OPA4830 directly onto the
board.

The OPA4830 is built using a very high-speed,
These diodes provide moderate protection to input

breakdown voltages are relatively low for these very

reflected in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. All

resistors should be added into the two inputs. Keep
these resistor values as low as possible, because
high values degrade both noise performance and
frequency response.
