ABSTRACT:
A high speed integrated circuit operational amplifier chip first, second, third and fourth successive edges includes a thermal centerline parallel to the second and fourth edges. An output driver circuit is located adjacent to an output bonding pad along the third edge and is disposed approximately symmetrically about the thermal centerline to provide approximately balanced differential heating of the operational amplifier chip relative to the thermal centerline. A differential input circuit is located adjacent to the first edge and is disposed approximately symmetrically about the thermal centerline to provide approximately balanced responses of matched transistors in the low gain differential input circuit to isotherms produced by the differential heating. The most thermally sensitive transistors are disposed along or symmetrically about the thermal centerline to provide approximately balanced response by such transistors to differential heating by the output driver circuit. The bonding pads, which function as heat sinks, also are symmetrically disposed on or about the thermal centerline.
