1. LT2079ACSTRPBF Substitution Conclusion
Direct substitution is not recommended. The LT2079 exhibits orders-of-magnitude differences in key dynamic performance compared to the ADA4004, placing it in a completely different performance class. Its gain-bandwidth product (200 kHz vs. 12 MHz) and slew rate (0.07 V/µs vs. 2.7 V/µs) are significantly lower than the original part. The LT2079 is entirely incapable of handling the moderate-frequency or fast-transient signals the original design supports. Forcing a replacement would result in severely inadequate circuit bandwidth and gross waveform distortion. While its ultra-low quiescent current (46 µA vs. unspecified) and low input bias current (6 nA) offer advantages in battery-powered, micropower sensor front-ends, these characteristics are mismatched with the medium-speed signal processing application served by the ADA4004. This substitution constitutes a performance downgrade.
2. LF347MX Substitution Conclusion
Conditional substitution is possible in specific applications, but DC accuracy requirements must be evaluated. The LF347MX shares the same order of magnitude in dynamic performance as the ADA4004, with some parameters being superior (slew rate 13 V/µs vs. 2.7 V/µs; gain-bandwidth product 4 MHz vs. 12 MHz). It can meet the requirements for most medium-speed amplification, filtering, and buffering applications. Its most significant difference is the JFET-input stage, which provides extremely low input bias current (50 pA vs. 40 nA) and very high input impedance, making it well-suited for high-impedance signal sources. However, its input offset voltage (5 mV vs. 40 µV) is two orders of magnitude higher than the original part. In DC or low-frequency precision amplification applications, this may introduce unacceptable output error, necessitating external nulling or system calibration. The LF347MX is a viable option in AC-coupled circuits or where DC precision is not critical. It is unsuitable for applications requiring high DC accuracy.
