700MHz Differential Twisted-Pair Drivers
Features
The EL5178 and EL5378 are single and triple high
bandwidth amplifiers with an output in differential form. They
are primarily targeted for applications such as driving
twisted-pair lines in component video applications. The
inputs can be in either single-ended or differential form but
the outputs are always in differential form.
• Fully differential inputs, outputs, and feedback
• Differential input range ±2.3V
• 700MHz 3dB bandwidth
• 1000V/µs slew rate
• Low distortion at 5MHz and 20MHz
On the EL5178 and EL5378, two feedback inputs provide
the user with the ability to set the gain of each device (stable
at minimum gain of 2).
• Single 5V or dual ±5V supplies
• 60mA maximum output current
The output common mode level for each channel is set by
the associated REF pin, which have a -3dB bandwidth of
over 110MHz. Generally, these pins are grounded but can be
tied to any voltage reference.
• Low power - 12.5mA per channel
All outputs are short circuit protected to withstand temporary
overload condition.
• Twisted-pair driver
The EL5178 is available in 8 Ld MSOP and SOIC packages
and EL5378 is available in a 28 Ld QSOP package. All are
specified for operation over the full -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.
• Pb-Free plus anneal available (RoHS compliant)
Applications
• Differential line driver
• VGA over twisted-pair
• ADSL/HDSL driver
• Single ended to differential amplification
• Transmission of analog signals in a noisy environment

Description of Operation and Application
Information
Product Description
The EL5178 and EL5378 are wide bandwidth, low power
and single/differential ended to differential output amplifiers.
The EL5178 is a single channel differential amplifier. Since
the IN- pin and REF pin are tired together internally, the
EL5178 can be used as a single ended to differential
converter. The EL5378 is a triple channel differential
amplifier. The EL5378 have a separate IN- pin and REF pin
for each channel. It can be used as single/differential ended
to differential converter. The EL5178 and EL5378 are
internally compensated for closed loop gain of 1 of greater.
Connected in gain of 2 and driving a 1kΩ differential load,
the EL5178 and EL5378 have a -3dB bandwidth of 700MHz.
Driving a 200Ω differential load at gain of 2, the bandwidth is
about 320MHz. The EL5378 is available with a power down
feature to reduce the power while the amplifier is disabled.
Input, Output, and Supply Voltage Range
The EL5178 and EL5378 have been designed to operate
with a single supply voltage of 5V to 10V or a split supplies
with its total voltage from 5V to 10V. The amplifiers have an
input common mode voltage range from -4.3V to 3.4V for
±5V supply. The differential mode input range (DMIR)
between the two inputs is from -2.3V to +2.3V. The input
voltage range at the REF pin is from -3.3V to 3.7V. If the
input common mode or differential mode signal is outside the
above-specified ranges, it will cause the output signal
distorted.
Differential and Common Mode Gain Settings
For EL5178, since the IN- pin and REF pin are bounded
together as the REF pin in an 8 Ld package, the signal at the
REF pin is part of the common mode signal and also part of
the differential mode signal. For the true balance differential
outputs, the REF pin must be tired to the same bias level as
the IN+ pin. For a ±5V supply, just tire the REF pin to GND if
the IN+ pin is biased at 0V with a 50Ω or 75Ω termination
resistor. For a single supply application, if the IN+ is biased
to half of the rail, the REF pin should be biased to half of the
rail also.
The gain setting for EL5178 is:

EL5378 have a separate IN- pin and REF pin. It can be used
as a single/differential ended to differential converter. The
voltage applied at REF pin can set the output common mode
voltage and the gain is one.
The output of the EL5178 and EL5378 can swing from -3.8V
to +3.8V at 1kΩ differential load at ±5V supply. As the load
resistance becomes lower, the output swing is reduced.

Driving Capacitive Loads and Cables
The gain setting for EL5378 is:
The EL5178 and EL5378 can drive 23pF differential
capacitor in parallel with 200Ω differential load with less than
5dB of peaking at gain of 2. If less peaking is desired in
applications, a small series resistor (usually between 5Ω to
50Ω) can be placed in series with each output to eliminate
most peaking. However, this will reduce the gain slightly. If
the gain setting is greater than 2, the gain resistor RG can
then be chosen to make up for any gain loss which may be
created by the additional series resistor at the output.

Choice of Feedback Resistor and Gain Bandwidth
Product
For gains greater than 1, the feedback resistor forms a pole
with the parasitic capacitance at the inverting input. As this
pole becomes smaller, the amplifier's phase margin is
reduced. This causes ringing in the time domain and
peaking in the frequency domain. Therefore, RF has some
maximum value that should not be exceeded for optimum
performance. If a large value of RF must be used, a small
capacitor in the few Pico farad range in parallel with RF can
help to reduce the ringing and peaking at the expense of
reducing the bandwidth.
The bandwidth of the EL5178 and EL5378 depends on the
load and the feedback network. RF and RG appear in
parallel with the load for gains other than 1. As this
combination gets smaller, the bandwidth falls off.
Consequently, RF also has a minimum value that should not
be exceeded for optimum bandwidth performance. For the
gains other than 1, optimum response is obtained with RF
between 500Ω to 1kΩ.
The EL5178 and EL5378 have a gain bandwidth product of
350MHz for RLD = 1kΩ. For gains ≥5, its bandwidth can be
predicted by the following equation:
When used as a cable driver, double termination is always
recommended for reflection-free performance. For those
applications, a back-termination series resistor at the
amplifier's output will isolate the amplifier from the cable and
allow extensive capacitive drive. However, other applications
may have high capacitive loads without a back-termination
resistor. Again, a small series resistor at the output can help
to reduce peaking.
Disable/Power-Down (for EL5378 only)
The EL5378 can be disabled and placed its outputs in a high
impedance state. The turn off time is about 1.2µs and the
turn on time is about 130ns. When disabled, the amplifier's
supply current is reduced to 1.7µA for IS+ and 120µA for IStypically, thereby effectively eliminating the power
consumption. The amplifier's power down can be controlled
by standard CMOS signal levels at the EN pin. The applied
logic signal is relative to VS+ pin. Letting the EN pin float or
applying a signal that is less than 1.5V below VS+ will enable
the amplifier. The amplifier will be disabled when the signal
at EN pin is above VS+ - 0.5V.
Output Drive Capability
The EL5178 and EL5378 have internal short circuit
protection. Its typical short circuit current is ±60mA. If the
output is shorted indefinitely, the power dissipation could
easily increase such that the part will be destroyed.
Maximum reliability is maintained if the output current never
exceeds ±60mA. This limit is set by the design of the internal
metal interconnections.
Power Dissipation
With the high output drive capability of the EL5178 and
EL5378. It is possible to exceed the +135°C absolute
maximum junction temperature under certain load current
conditions. Therefore, it is important to calculate the
maximum junction temperature for the application to
determine if the load conditions or package types need to be
modified for the amplifier to remain in the safe operating
area.
The maximum power dissipation allowed in a package is
determined according to:
Gain × BW = 300MHz
T JMAX – T AMAX
PD MAX = --------------------------------------------Θ JA

Power Supply Bypassing and Printed Circuit
Board Layout
Where:
TJMAX = Maximum junction temperature
TAMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
θJA = Thermal resistance of the package
The maximum power dissipation actually produced by an IC
is the total quiescent supply current times the total power
supply voltage, plus the power in the IC due to the load, or:
ΔV O⎞

PD = i × ⎜ V S × I SMAX + V S × ------------⎟
R LD ⎠
⎝
Where:
VS = Total supply voltage
ISMAX = Maximum quiescent supply current per channel
ΔVO = Maximum differential output voltage of the
application
RLD = Differential load resistance
ILOAD = Load current
i = Number of channels
As with any high frequency device, a good printed circuit
board layout is necessary for optimum performance. Lead
lengths should be as sort as possible. The power supply pin
must be well bypassed to reduce the risk of oscillation. For
normal single supply operation, where the VS- pin is
connected to the ground plane, a single 4.7µF tantalum
capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VS+
to GND will suffice. This same capacitor combination should
be placed at each supply pin to ground if split supplies are to
be used. In this case, the VS- pin becomes the negative
supply rail.
For good AC performance, parasitic capacitance should be
kept to minimum. Use of wire wound resistors should be
avoided because of their additional series inductance. Use
of sockets should also be avoided if possible. Sockets add
parasitic inductance and capacitance that can result in
compromised performance. Minimizing parasitic capacitance
at the amplifier's inverting input pin is very important. The
feedback resistor should be placed very close to the
inverting input pin. Strip line design techniques are
recommended for the signal traces.
By setting the two PDMAX equations equal to each other, we
can solve the output current and RLD to avoid the device
overheat.

As the signal is transmitted through a cable, the high
frequency signal will be attenuated. One way to compensate
this loss is to boost the high frequency gain at the receiver
side.
