APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Circuit Operation Input Impedance and Matching
The LTC6401-8 is a low noise and low distortion fully The differential input impedance of the LTC6401-8 is 400Ω. differential op amp/ADC driver with: Usually the differential inputs need to be terminated to a lower value impedance, e.g. 50 • Operation from DC to 2.2GHz –3dB bandwidth Ω, in order to provide an impedance match for the source. Several choices are avail- • Fixed gain of 2.5V/V (8dB) able. One approach is to use a differential shunt resistor • Differential input impedance 400Ω (Figure 1). Another approach is to employ a wideband transformer and shunt resistor (Figure 2). Both methods • Differential output impedance 25Ω provide a wideband match. The termination resistor or • Differential impedance of output fi lter 100Ω the transformer must be placed close to the input pins in order to minimize the refl ection due to input mismatch. The LTC6401-8 is composed of a fully differential amplifi er Alternatively, one could apply a narrowband impedance with on chip feedback and output common mode voltage match at the inputs of the LTC6401-8 for frequency selec- control circuitry. Differential gain and input impedance tion and/or noise reduction. are set by 200Ω/500Ω resistors in the feedback network. Small output resistors of 12.5Ω improve the circuit stability LTC6401-8 over various load conditions. They also provide a possible 25Ω 200Ω 500Ω 12.5Ω external fi ltering option, which is often desirable when the 13 +IN +OUT 8 50Ω load is an ADC. IN+ OUT– +OUTF V 7 IN 14 +IN + Filter resistors of 50Ω are available for additional fi ltering. 57.6Ω – 50Ω 2.7pF Lowpass/bandpass fi lters are easily implemented with just 15 –IN IN– OUT+ –OUTF 6 a couple of external components. Moreover, they offer 25Ω 200Ω 500Ω 12.5Ω single-ended 50Ω matching in wideband applications and 16 –IN –OUT 5 no external resistor is needed. 64018 F01 The LTC6401-8 is very fl exible in terms of I/O coupling.

It can be AC- or DC-coupled at the inputs, the outputs or both. Due to the internal connection between input and output, users are advised to keep input common mode LTC6401-8 voltage between 1V and 1.6V for proper operation. If the 25Ω 200Ω 500Ω 12.5Ω inputs are AC-coupled, the input common mode voltage 13 +IN +OUT 8 is automatically biased approximately 250mV above V 50Ω 1:4 OCM IN+ OUT– +OUTF 7 and thus no external circuitry is needed for bias. The VIN • 14 +IN + – 402 • Ω LTC6401-8 provides an output common mode voltage 50Ω 2.7pF 15 –IN IN– OUT+ –OUTF 6 set by VOCM, which allows driving ADC directly without external components such as transformer or AC coupling 25Ω 200Ω 500Ω 12.5Ω capacitors. The input signal can be either single-ended 16 –IN –OUT 5 MINI CIRCUITS 64018 F02 or differential with only minor difference in distortion TCM4-19 performance.
