LT6402-12 300MHz Low Distortion, Low Noise Differential Amplifier/ ADC Driver (AV = 12dB) DESCRIPTION
The LT(R)6402-12 is a low distortion, low noise differential amplifier/ADC driver for use in applications from DC to 300MHz. The LT6402-12 has been designed for ease of use, with minimal support circuitry required. Exceptionally low input-referred noise and low distortion (with either single-ended or differential inputs) make the LT6402-12 an excellent solution for driving high speed 12-bit and 14-bit ADCs. In addition to the normal unfiltered outputs (+OUT and -OUT), the LT6402-12 has a built-in 75MHz differential low pass filter and an additional pair of filtered outputs (+OUTFILTERED, -OUTFILTERED) to reduce external filtering components when driving high speed ADCs. The output common mode voltage is easily set via the VOCM pin, eliminating an output transformer or ACcoupling capacitors in many applications. The LT6402-12 is designed to meet the demanding requirements of communications transceiver applications. It can be used as a differential ADC driver, a general-purpose differential gain block, or in other applications requiring differential drive. The LT6402-12 can be used in data acquisition systems required to function at frequencies down to DC. The LT6402-12 operates on a 5V supply and consumes 30mA. It comes in a compact 16-lead 3mm x 3mm QFN package and operates over a -40C to 85C temperature range.

CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNITS
Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: As long as output current and junction temperature are kept below the Absolute Maximum Ratings, no damage to the part will occur. Note 3: The LT6402 is guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range of -40C to 85C.
Note 4: The LT6402C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from 0C to 70C. It is designed, characterized and expected to meet specified performance from -40C and 85C but is not tested or QA sampled at these temperatures. The LT6402I is guaranteed to meet specified performance from -40C to 85C. Note 5: Since the LT6402-12 is a feedback amplifier with low output impedance, a resistive load is not required when driving an ADC. Therefore, typical output power is very small. In order to compare the LT6402-12 with typical gm amplifiers that require 50 output loading, the LT6402-12 output voltage swing driving an ADC is converted to OIP3 and P1dB as if it were driving a 50 load.

LT6402-12 PIN FUNCTIONS
VOCM (Pin 2): This pin sets the output common mode voltage. Without additional biasing, both inputs bias to this voltage as well. This input is high impedance. VCCA, VCCB, VCCC (Pins 3, 10, 1): Positive Power Supply (Normally Tied to 5V). All three pins must be tied to the same voltage. Bypass each pin with 1000pF and 0.1F capacitors as close to the package as possible. Split supplies are possible as long as the voltage between VCC and VEE is 5V. VEEA, VEEB, VEEC (Pins 4, 9, 12): Negative Power Supply (Normally Tied to Ground). All three pins must be tied to the same voltage. Split supplies are possible as long as the voltage between VCC and VEE is 5V. If these pins are not tied to ground, bypass each pin with 1000pF and 0.1F capacitors as close to the package as possible. +OUT, -OUT (Pins 5, 8): Outputs (Unfiltered). These pins are high bandwidth, low-impedance outputs. The DC output voltage at these pins is set to the voltage applied at VOCM. +OUTFILTERED, -OUTFILTERED (Pins 6, 7): Filtered Outputs. These pins add a series 50 resistor from the unfiltered outputs and three 14pF capacitors. Each output has 14pF to VEE, plus an additional 14pF between each pin (See the Block Diagram). This filter has a -3dB bandwidth of 75MHz. ENABLE (Pin 11): This pin is a TTL logic input referenced to the VEEC pin. If low, the LT6402-12 is enabled and draws typically 30mA of supply current. If high, the LT6402-12 is disabled and draws typically 250A. +INA, +INB (Pins 15, 16): Positive Inputs. These pins are normally tied together. These inputs may be DC- or ACcoupled. If the inputs are AC-coupled, they will self-bias to the voltage applied to the VOCM pin. -INA, -INB (Pins 14, 13): Negative Inputs. These pins are normally tied together. These inputs may be DC- or ACcoupled. If the inputs are AC-coupled, they will self-bias to the voltage applied to the VOCM pin. Exposed Pad (Pin 17): Tie the pad to VEEC (Pin 12). If split supplies are used, DO NOT tie the pad to ground.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Circuit Description The LT6402-12 is a low noise, low distortion differential amplifier/ADC driver with: * -3dB bandwidth DC to 300MHz * Fixed gain independent of RLOAD 4V/V (12dB) * Differential input impedance 100 * Low output impedance * Built-in, user adjustable output filtering * Requires minimal support circuitry Referring to the block diagram, the LT6402-12 uses a closed-loop topology which incorporates 3 internal amplifiers. Two of the amplifiers (A and B) are identical and drive the differential outputs. The third amplifier is used to set the output common mode voltage. Gain and input impedance are set by the 200 resistors in the internal feedback network. Output impedance is low, determined by the inherent output impedance of amplifiers A and B, and further reduced by internal feedback. The LT6402-12 also includes built-in single-pole output filtering. The user has the choice of using the unfiltered outputs, the filtered outputs (75MHz -3dB lowpass), or modifying the filtered outputs to alter frequency response by adding additional components. Many lowpass and bandpass filters are easily implemented with just one or two additional components.

LT6402-12 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT6402-12 has been designed to minimize the need for external support components such as transformers or AC-coupling capacitors. As an ADC driver, the LT6402-12 requires no external components except for power-supply bypass capacitors. This allows DC-coupled operation for applications that have frequency ranges including DC. At the outputs, the common mode voltage is set via the VOCM pin, allowing the LT6402-12 to drive ADCs directly. No output AC-coupling capacitors or transformers are needed. At the inputs, signals can be differential or single-ended with virtually no difference in performance. Furthermore, DC levels at the inputs can be set independently of the output common mode voltage. These input characteristics often eliminate the need for an input transformer and/or AC-coupling capacitors. Input Impedance and Matching Networks Calculation of the input impedance of the LT6402-12 is not straightforward from examination of the block diagram because of the internal feedback network. In addition, the input impedance when driven differentially is different than when driven single-ended.

impedance ratio transformer can also be used to better match impedances. Single-Ended to Differential Operation The LT6402-12's performance with single-ended inputs is comparable to its performance with differential inputs. This excellent single-ended performance is largely due to the internal topology of the LT6402-12. Referring to the block diagram, if the +INA and +INB pins are driven with a single-ended signal (while -INA and -INB are tied to AC ground), then the +OUT and -OUT pins are driven differentially without any voltage swing needed from amplifier C. Single-ended to differential conversion using more conventional topologies suffers from performance limitations due to the common mode amplifier. Driving ADCs The LT6402-12 has been specifically designed to interface directly with high speed Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs). In general, these ADCs have differential inputs, with an input impedance of 1k or higher. In addition, there is generally some form of lowpass or bandpass filtering just
For single-ended 50 applications, a 150 shunt matching resistor to ground will result in the proper input termination (Figure 1). For differential inputs there are several termination options. If the input source is 50 differential, then the input matching can be accomplished by either a 67 shunt resistor across the inputs (Figure 3), or equivalent 33 shunt resistors on each of the inputs to ground (Figure 2). If additional AC gain is desired, an

prior to the ADC to limit input noise at the ADC, thereby improving system signal to noise ratio. Both the unfiltered and filtered outputs of the LT6402-12 can easily drive the high impedance inputs of these differential ADCs. If the filtered outputs are used, then cutoff frequency and the type of filter can be tailored for the specific application if needed. Wideband Applications (Using the +OUT and -OUT Pins) In applications where the full bandwidth of the LT6402-12 is desired, the unfiltered output pins (+OUT and -OUT) should be used. They have a low output impedance; therefore, gain is unaffected by output load. Capacitance in excess of 5pF placed directly on the unfiltered outputs results in additional peaking and reduced performance. When driving an ADC directly, a small series resistance is recommended between the LT6402-12's outputs and the ADC inputs (Figure 4). This resistance helps eliminate any resonances associated with bond wire inductances of either the ADC inputs or the LT6402-12's outputs. A value between 10 and 25 gives excellent results. between the two filtered outputs. This resistor/capacitor combination creates filtered outputs that look like a series 50 resistor with a 42pF capacitor shunting each filtered output to AC ground, giving a -3dB bandwidth of 75MHz. The filter cutoff frequency is easily modified with just a few external components. To increase the cutoff frequency, simply add 2 equal value resistors, one between +OUT and +OUTFILTERED and the other between -OUT and -OUTFILTERED (Figure 6). These resistors are in parallel with the internal 50 resistor, lowering the overall resistance and increasing filter bandwidth. To double the filter bandwidth, for example, add two external 50 resistors to lower the series resistance to 25. The 42pF of capacitance remains unchanged, so filter bandwidth doubles. To decrease filter bandwidth, add two external capacitors, one from +OUTFILTERED to ground, and the other from -OUTFILTERED to ground. A single differential capacitor connected between +OUTFILTERED and -OUTFILTERED

Filtered Applications (Using the +OUTFILTERED and -OUTFILTERED Pins) Filtering at the output of the LT6402-12 is often desired to provide either anti-aliasing or improved signal to noise ratio. To simplify this filtering, the LT6402-12 includes an additional pair of differential outputs (+OUTFILTERED and -OUTFILTERED) which incorporate an internal lowpass filter network with a -3dB bandwidth of 75MHz (Figure 5). These pins each have an output impedance of 50. Internal capacitances are 14pF to VEE on each filtered output, plus an additional 14pF capacitor connected differentially

can also be used, but since it is being driven differentially it will appear at each filtered output as a single-ended capacitance of twice the value. To halve the filter bandwidth, for example, two 42pF capacitors could be added (one from each filtered output to ground). Alternatively one 21pF capacitor could be added between the filtered outputs, again halving the filter bandwidth. Combinations of capacitors could be used as well; a three capacitor solution of 14pF from each filtered output to ground plus a 14pF capacitor between the filtered outputs would also halve the filter bandwidth (Figure 7). Bandpass filtering is also easily implemented with just a few external components. An additional 560pF and 62nH, each added differentially between +OUTFILTERED and -OUTFILTERED creates a bandpass filter with a 26MHz center frequency, -3dB points of 23MHz and 30MHz, and 1.6dB of insertion loss (Figure 8).

Output Common Mode Adjustment The LT6402-12's output common mode voltage is set by the VOCM pin. It is a high-impedance input, capable of setting the output common mode voltage anywhere in a range from 1.1V to 3.6V. Bandwidth of the VOCM pin is typically 200MHz, so for applications where the VOCM pin is tied to a DC bias voltage, a 0.1F capacitor at this pin is recommended. For best distortion performance, the voltage at the VOCM pin should be between 1.2V and 2.6V. When interfacing with most ADCs, there is generally a VOCM output pin that is at about half of the supply voltage of the ADC. For 5V ADCs such as the LTC17XX family, this VOCM output pin should be connected directly (with the addition of a 0.1F capacitor) to the input VOCM pin of the LT6402-12. For 3V ADCs such as the LTC22XX families, the LT6402-12 will function properly using the 1.65V from the ADC's VCM reference pin, but improved Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) and distortion performance can be achieved by level-shifting the LTC22XX's VCM reference voltage up to at least 1.8V. This can be accomplished as shown in Figure 9 by using a resistor divider between the LTC22XX's VCM output pin and VCC and then bypassing the LT6402-12's VOCM pin with a 0.1F capacitor. For a common mode voltage above 1.9V, AC coupling capacitors are recommended between the LT6402-12 and LTC22XX ADCs because of the input voltage range constraints of the ADC.

LT6402-12 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Large Output Voltage Swings The LT6402-12 has been designed to provide the 3.2VPP output swing needed by the LTC1748 family of 14-bit low-noise ADCs. This additional output swing improves system SNR by up to 4dB. Input Bias Voltage and Bias Current The input pins of the LT6402-12 are internally biased to the voltage applied to the VOCM pin. No external biasing resistors are needed, even for AC-coupled operation. The input bias current is determined by the voltage difference between the input common mode voltage and the VOCM pin (which sets the output common mode voltage). For example, if the inputs are tied to 2.5V with the VOCM pin at 2.2V, then a total input bias current of 2mA will flow into the LT6402-12's +INA and +INB pins. Furthermore, an additional input bias current totaling 2mA will flow into the -INA and -INB inputs. Application (Demo) Boards The DC954A Demo Board has been created for stand-alone evaluation of the LT6402-12 with either single-ended or differential input and output signals. As shown, it accepts a single-ended input and produces a single-ended output so that the LT6402-12 can be evaluated using standard laboratory test equipment. For more information on this Demo Board, please refer to the layout and schematic diagrams found later in this data sheet. There are also additional demo boards available that combine the LT6402-12 with a variety of different Linear Technology ADCs. Please contact the factory for more information on these demo boards.
