RTI is close to output noise voltage divided by voltage gain ROUT = RLOAD || RO = 100Ω. (the exact equation is given in Defi nition of Specifi cation section). The Note 9 : Depending on the actual input matching conditions and frequency equivalent noise source eN is twice the RTI value. of operation, the LT5554 steps involving the input attenuator tap change Note 6 : The external loading at LT5554 OUT+/OUT– pins is RLOAD = 57Ω. may show less than 0.125dB change. These steps are GMAX –4dB, GMAX ROUT = RLOAD || RO = 50Ω. –8dB, GMAX –12dB, and the code is given in the Programmable Gain Table. Note 7 : The IN+, IN–, DEC pins are internally biased. The time-constant The LT5554 monotonic operation for 0.125dB step resolution can still be of input coupling capacitor sets the low frequency corner (LF) at input. obtained by skipping any such code with a gain error excedding 0.125dB. The output coupling capacitors or the transformer sets the low frequency corner (LF) at the output. The LT5554 operates internally down to DC.
