LTC6406 3GHz, Low Noise, Rail-to-Rail Input Differential Amplifi er/Driver FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Low Noise: 1.6nV/√Hz RTI The LTC®6406 is a very low noise, low distortion, fully n Low Power: 18mA at 3V differential input/output amplifi er optimized for 3V, single n Low Distortion (HD2/HD3): supply operation. The LTC6406 input common mode range –80dBc/–69dBc at 50MHz, 2VP-P is rail-to-rail, while the output common mode voltage is –104dBc/–90dBc at 20MHz, 2VP-P independently adjustable by applying a voltage on the n Rail-to-Rail Differential Input VOCM pin. This makes the LTC6406 ideal for level-shifting n 2.7V to 3.5V Supply Voltage Range signals with a wide common mode range for driving 12-bit n Fully Differential Input and Output to 16-bit single supply, differential input ADCs. n Adjustable Output Common Mode Voltage A 3GHz gain-bandwidth product results in 70dB linearity for n 800MHz –3dB Bandwidth with AV = 1 50MHz input signals. The LTC6406 is unity-gain stable and n Gain-Bandwidth Product: 3GHz the closed-loop bandwidth extends from DC to 800MHz. n Low Power Shutdown The output voltage swing extends from near ground to n Available in 8-Lead MSOP and Tiny 16-Lead 2V, to be compatible with a wide range of ADC converter 3mm × 3mm × 0.75mm QFN Packages input requirements. The LTC6406 draws only 18mA, and has a hardware shutdown feature which reduces current APPLICATIONS consumption to 300μA. n Differential Input ADC Driver The LTC6406 is available in a compact 3mm × 3mm 16-pin n Single-Ended to Differential Conversion leadless QFN package as well as an 8-lead MSOP package, n Level-Shifting Ground-Referenced Signals and operates over a –40°C to 85°C temperature range. n Level-Shifting VCC-Referenced Signals L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks of Linear n High Linearity Direct Conversion Receivers Technology Corporation.
