GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD815 consists of two high speed amplifiers capable of
supplying a minimum of 500 mA. They are typically configured
as a differential driver enabling an output signal of 40 V p-p on
± 15 V supplies. This can be increased further with the use of a
coupling transformer with a greater than 1:1 turns ratio. The
low harmonic distortion of –66 dB @ 1 MHz into 200 Ω

combined with the wide bandwidth and high current drive make
the differential driver ideal for communication applications such
as subscriber line interfaces for ADSL, HDSL and VDSL.
The AD815 differential slew rate of 900 V/µs and high load drive
are suitable for fast dynamic control of coils or transformers,
and the video performance of 0.05% and 0.45° differential gain
and phase into a load of 25 Ω enable up to 12 back-terminated
loads to be driven.
The 24-lead SOIC (RB) is capable of driving 26 dBm for full
rate ADSL with proper heat sinking.

The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the AD815
is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature. The
maximum safe junction temperature for the plastic encapsulated
parts is determined by the glass transition temperature of the
plastic, about 150°C. Exceeding this limit temporarily may
cause a shift in parametric performance due to a change in the
stresses exerted on the die by the package. Exceeding a junction
temperature of 175°C for an extended period can result in
device failure.
The AD815 has thermal shutdown protection, which guarantees
that the maximum junction temperature of the die remains below a
safe level, even when the output is shorted to ground. Shorting
the output to either power supply will result in device failure.
To ensure proper operation, it is important to observe the
derating curves and refer to the section on power considerations.
NOTES
1
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2
Specification is for device in free air with 0 ft/min air flow: 24-Lead Surface Mount:
θJA = 52°C/W.
It must also be noted that in high (noninverting) gain configurations
(with low values of gain resistor), a high level of input overdrive
can result in a large input error current, which may result in a
significant power dissipation in the input stage. This power
must be included when computing the junction temperature rise
due to total internal power.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD815 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Choice of Feedback and Gain Resistors
SIDE A
The fine scale gain flatness will, to some extent, vary with
feedback resistance. It therefore is recommended that once
optimum resistor values have been determined, 1% tolerance
values should be used if it is desired to maintain flatness over
a wide range of production lots. Table I shows optimum values
for several useful configurations. These should be used as
starting point in any application.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD815 is a dual current feedback amplifier with high
(500 mA) output current capability. Being a current feedback
amplifier, the AD815’s open-loop behavior is expressed
as transimpedance, ∆V O /∆I –IN , or T Z . The open-loop
transimpedance behaves just as the open-loop voltage gain
of a voltage feedback amplifier, that is, it has a large dc value
and decreases at roughly 6 dB/octave in frequency.

As to be expected for a wideband amplifier, PC board parasitics
can affect the overall closed-loop performance. Of concern are
stray capacitances at the output and the inverting input nodes. If
a ground plane is to be used on the same side of the board as
the signal traces, a space (5 mm min) should be left around the
signal lines to minimize coupling.

Adequate power supply bypassing can be critical when optimizing
the performance of a high frequency circuit. Inductance in the
power supply leads can form resonant circuits that produce
peaking in the amplifier’s response. In addition, if large current
transients must be delivered to the load, then bypass capacitors
(typically greater than 1 µF) will be required to provide the best
settling time and lowest distortion. A parallel combination of
10.0 µF and 0.1 µF is recommended. Under some low frequency
applications, a bypass capacitance of greater than 10 µF may be
necessary. Due to the large load currents delivered by the
AD815, special consideration must be given to careful bypassing.
The ground returns on both supply bypass capacitors as well as
signal common must be “star” connected as shown in Figure 44.

Considering that additional poles contribute excess phase at
high frequencies, there is a minimum feedback resistance below
which peaking or oscillation may result. This fact is used to
determine the optimum feedback resistance, RF. In practice
parasitic capacitance at the inverting input terminal will also add
phase in the feedback loop, so picking an optimum value for RF
can be difficult.

There are three major noise and offset terms to consider in
a current feedback amplifier. For offset errors refer to the
equation below. For noise error the terms are root-sum-squared
to give a net output error. In the circuit below (Figure 45), they
are input offset (VIO) which appears at the output multiplied by
the noise gain of the circuit (1 + RF/RG), noninverting input
current (IBN × RN) also multiplied by the noise gain, and the
inverting input current, which when divided between RF and RG
and subsequently multiplied by the noise gain always appear at
the output as IBI × RF. The input voltage noise of the AD815 is
less than 2 nV/√Hz. At low gains though, the inverting input
current noise times RF is the dominant noise source. Careful
layout and device matching contribute to better offset and
drift specifications for the AD815 compared to many other
current feedback amplifiers. The typical performance curves
in conjunction with the equations below can be used to predict
the performance of the AD815 in any application.

POWER CONSIDERATIONS
The 500 mA drive capability of the AD815 enables it to drive
a 50 Ω load at 40 V p-p when it is configured as a differential
driver. This implies a power dissipation, PIN, of nearly 5 watts.
To ensure reliability, the junction temperature of the AD815
should be maintained at less than 175°C. For this reason, the
AD815 will require some form of heat sinking in most applications. The thermal diagram of Figure 46 gives the basic
relationship between junction temperature (TJ) and various
components of θJA.

AD815
Other Power Considerations
There are additional power considerations applicable to the
AD815. First, as with many current feedback amplifiers, there is an
increase in supply current when delivering a large peak-to-peak
voltage to a resistive load at high frequencies. This behavior is
affected by the load present at the amplifier’s output. Figure 15
summarizes the full power response capabilities of the AD815.
These curves apply to the differential driver applications (e.g.,
Figure 51 or Figure 55). In Figure 15, maximum continuous
peak-to-peak output voltage is plotted vs. frequency for various
resistive loads. Exceeding this value on a continuous basis can
damage the AD815.
The AD815 is equipped with a thermal shutdown circuit. This
circuit ensures that the temperature of the AD815 die remains
below a safe level. In normal operation, the circuit shuts down
the AD815 at approximately 180°C and allows the circuit to
turn back on at approximately 140°C. This built-in hysteresis
means that a sustained thermal overload will cycle between
power-on and power-off conditions. The thermal cycling
typically occurs at a rate of 1 ms to several seconds, depending
on the power dissipation and the thermal time constants of the
package and heat sinking. Figures 48 and 49 illustrate the
thermal shutdown operation after driving OUT1 to the + rail,
and OUT2 to the – rail, and then short-circuiting to ground
each output of the AD815. The AD815 will not be damaged by
momentary operation in this state, but the overload condition
should be removed.

Differential Operation
Various circuit configurations can be used for differential
operation of the AD815. If a differential drive signal is available, the two halves can be used in a classic instrumentation
configuration to provide a circuit with differential input and
output. The circuit in Figure 51 is an illustration of this. With
the resistors shown, the gain of the circuit is 11. The gain can
be changed by changing the value of RG. This circuit, however,
provides no common-mode rejection.

Parallel Operation
To increase the drive current to a load, both of the amplifiers
within the AD815 can be connected in parallel. Each amplifier should be set for the same gain and driven with the same
signal. In order to ensure that the two amplifiers share current,
If only a single ended signal is available to drive the AD815 and
a differential output signal is desired, several circuits can be
used to perform the single-ended-to-differential conversion.
One circuit to perform this is to use a dual op amp as a
predriver that is configured as a noninverter and inverter. The
circuit shown in Figure 52 performs this function. It uses an
AD826 dual op amp with the gain of one amplifier set at +1 and
the gain of the other at –1. The 1 kΩ resistor across the input
terminals of the follower makes the noise gain (NG = 1) equal
to the inverter’s. The two outputs then differentially drive the
inputs to the AD815 with no common-mode signal to first order.

Figure 53. Differential Driver with Transformer Input
Direct Single-Ended-to-Differential Conversion
Two types of circuits can create a differential output signal from
a single-ended input without the use of any other components
than resistors. The first of these is illustrated in Figure 54.
REV. D
This circuit can work at various gains with proper resistor
selection. But in general, in order to change the gain of the
circuit, at least two resistor values will have to be changed. In
addition, the noise gain of the two op amps in this configuration
will always be different by one, so the bandwidths will not match.
Each of the AD815’s op amps is configured as a unity gain
follower by the feedback resistors (RA). Each op amp output
also drives the other as a unity gain inverter via the two RBs,
creating a totally symmetrical circuit.

When the + input of Amp 1 is driven with a signal, the same
signal appears at the – input of Amp 1. This signal serves as an
input to Amp 2 configured for a gain of –5, (–RF2/R G). Thus the
two outputs move in opposite directions with the same gain and
create a balanced differential signal.
A second circuit that has none of the disadvantages mentioned
in the above circuit creates a differential output voltage feedback
op amp out of the pair of current feedback op amps in the AD815.
This circuit, drawn in Figure 55, can be used as a high power
differential line driver, such as required for ADSL (asymmetrical
digital subscriber loop) line driving.

Amp 1 has its + input driven with the input signal, while the
+ input of Amp 2 is grounded. Thus the – input of Amp 2 is
driven to virtual ground potential by its output. Therefore
Amp 1 is configured for a noninverting gain of five, (1 + RF1/RG),
because R G is connected to the virtual ground of Amp 2’s – input.
One advantage of using a transformer is its ability to provide
isolation between circuit sections and to provide good commonmode rejection. The disadvantages are that transformers have
no dc response and can sometimes be large, heavy, and expensive.
This circuit is shown in Figure 53.

Another means for creating a differential signal from a singleended signal is to use a transformer with a center-tapped
secondary. The center tap of the transformer is grounded and
the two secondary windings are connected to obtain opposite
polarity signals to the two inputs of the AD815 amplifiers. The
bias currents for the AD815 inputs are provided by the center
tap ground connection through the transformer windings.

The input video signal is terminated in 75 Ω and applied to the
noninverting inputs of both amplifiers of the AD815. Each
amplifier is configured for a gain of two to compensate for the
divide-by-two feature of each cable termination. Six separate
75 Ω resistors for each amplifier output are used for the cable
back termination. In this manner, all cables are relatively
independent of each other and small disturbances on any cable
will not have an effect on the other cables.
When driving six video cables in this fashion, the load seen by
each amplifier output is resistive and is equal to 150 Ω/6 or
25 Ω. The differential gain is 0.05% and the differential phase is
