The AD8139 is manufactured on the proprietary Analog Devices,
Inc., second-generation XFCB process, enabling it to achieve low
levels of distortion with input voltage noise of only 2.25 nV/√Hz.
The AD8139 is available in an 8-lead SOIC package with an
exposed paddle (EP) on the underside of its body and a 3 mm ×
3 mm LFCSP. It is rated to operate over the temperature range
of −40°C to +125°C.

The AD8139 is an ultralow noise, high performance differential
amplifier with rail-to-rail output. With its low noise, high
SFDR, and wide bandwidth, it is an ideal choice for driving
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with resolutions to 18 bits.
The AD8139 is easy to apply, and its internal common-mode
feedback architecture allows its output common-mode voltage
to be controlled by the voltage applied to one pin. The internal
feedback loop also provides outstanding output balance as well
as suppression of even-order harmonic distortion products. Fully
differential and single-ended-to-differential gain configurations
are easily realized by the AD8139. Simple external feedback
networks consisting of four resistors determine the closed-loop
gain of the amplifier.

Stresses at or above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage to the product. This is a
stress rating only; functional operation of the product at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
The power dissipated in the package (PD) is the sum of the
quiescent power dissipation and the power dissipated in the
package due to the load drive for all outputs. The quiescent
power is the voltage between the supply pins (VS) times the
quiescent current (IS). The load current consists of differential
and common-mode currents flowing to the load, as well as
currents flowing through the external feedback networks and
the internal common-mode feedback loop. The internal resistor
tap used in the common-mode feedback loop places a 1 kΩ
differential load on the output. RMS output voltages should be
considered when dealing with ac signals.
Airflow reduces θJA. In addition, more metal directly in contact
with the package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground,
and power planes reduce the θJA.
Figure 4 shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the
package vs. the ambient temperature for the exposed paddle
(EP) 8-lead SOIC (θJA = 70°C/W) and the 8-lead LFCSP
(θJA = 70°C/W) on a JEDEC standard 4-layer board. θJA
values are approximations.
θJA is specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, θJA is specified
for device soldered in circuit board for surface-mount packages.

Maximum Power Dissipation
The maximum safe power dissipation in the AD8139 package
is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature (TJ) on
the die. At approximately 150°C, which is the glass transition
temperature, the plastic changes its properties. Even temporarily
exceeding this temperature limit can change the stresses that the
package exerts on the die, permanently shifting the parametric
performance of the AD8139. Exceeding a junction temperature
of 175°C for an extended period can result in changes in the
silicon devices potentially causing failure.

AD8139
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8139 is a high speed, low noise differential amplifier
fabricated on the Analog Devices second-generation extra fast
complementary bipolar (XFCB) process. It is designed to
provide two closely balanced differential outputs in response
to either differential or single-ended input signals. Differential
gain is set by external resistors, similar to traditional voltagefeedback operational amplifiers. The common-mode level of
the output voltage is set by a voltage at the VOCM pin and is
independent of the input common-mode voltage. The AD8139
has an H-bridge input stage for high slew rate, low noise, and
low distortion operation and rail-to-rail output stages that
provide maximum dynamic output range. This set of features
allows for convenient single-ended-to-differential conversion,
a common need to take advantage of modern high resolution
ADCs with differential inputs.
TYPICAL CONNECTION AND DEFINITION OF
TERMS
Figure 59 shows a typical connection for the AD8139, using
matched external RF/RG networks. The differential input terminals
of the AD8139, VAP and VAN, are used as summing junctions.
An external reference voltage applied to the VOCM terminal sets
the output common-mode voltage. The two output terminals,
VOP and VON, move in opposite directions in a balanced fashion
in response to an input signal.
outputs of identical amplitude and exactly 180° out of phase. The
output balance performance does not require tightly matched
external components, nor does it require that the feedback factors
of each loop be equal to each other. Low frequency output balance
is limited ultimately by the mismatch of an on-chip voltage divider,
which is trimmed for optimum performance.
Output balance is measured by placing a well-matched resistor
divider across the differential voltage outputs and comparing
the signal at the midpoint of the divider with the magnitude of
the differential output. By this definition, output balance is
equal to the magnitude of the change in output common-mode
voltage divided by the magnitude of the change in output
differential-mode voltage:

Output balance is a measure of how well VOP and VON are

towards zero, resulting in the near perfectly balanced differential

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Voltage Gain
ESTIMATING NOISE, GAIN, AND BANDWIDTH
WITH MATCHED FEEDBACK NETWORKS
Estimating Output Noise Voltage
The total output noise is calculated as the root-sum-squared
total of several statistically independent sources. Because the
sources are statistically independent, the contributions of each
must be individually included in the root-sum-square calculation.
Table 6 lists recommended resistor values and estimates of
bandwidth and output differential voltage noise for various
closed-loop gains. For most applications, 1% resistors are
sufficient.

The differential output voltage noise contains contributions
from the input voltage noise and input current noise of the
AD8139 as well as those from the external feedback networks.
The behavior of the node voltages of the single-ended-todifferential output topology can be deduced from the previous
definitions. Referring to Figure 59, (CF = 0) and setting VIN = 0,
one can write

Feedback Factor Notation
When working with differential amplifiers, it is convenient to
introduce the feedback factor β, which is defined as


RF  RG
(14)
This notation is consistent with conventional feedback analysis
and is very useful, particularly when the two feedback loops are
not matched.
Input Common-Mode Voltage
The linear range of the VAN and VAP terminals extends to within
approximately 1 V of either supply rail. Because VAN and VAP are
essentially equal to each other, they are both equal to the input
common-mode voltage of the amplifier. Their range is indicated
in the Specifications tables as input common-mode range. The
voltage at VAN and VAP for the connection diagram in Figure 59
can be expressed as

where VACM is the common-mode voltage present at the

This result can be intuitively viewed as the thermal noise of
each RG multiplied by the magnitude of the differential gain.
Using the β notation, Equation 15 can be written as follows:
The contribution from each RF is computed as
Vo_n4 = √4kTRF
(12)
An inverting configuration with the same gain magnitude can
be implemented by simply applying the input signal to VIN and
setting VIP = 0. For a balanced differential input, the gain from
VIN, dm to VO, dm is also equal to RF/RG, where VIN, dm = VIP − VIN.

For proper operation, the voltages at VAN and VAP must stay
within their respective linear ranges.
The input impedance of a conventional inverting op amp
configuration is simply RG, but it is higher in Equation 19
because a fraction of the differential output voltage appears at
the summing junctions, VAN and VAP. This voltage partially
bootstraps the voltage across the input resistor RG, leading to
the increased input resistance.
Calculating Input Impedance
The input impedance of the circuit in Figure 59 depends on
whether the amplifier is being driven by a single-ended or a
differential signal source. For balanced differential input
signals, the differential input impedance (RIN, dm) is simply
RIN, dm = 2RG
Input Common-Mode Swing Considerations
In some single-ended-to-differential applications, when using a
single-supply voltage, attention must be paid to the swing of the
input common-mode voltage, VACM.
(18)
For a single-ended signal (for example, when VIN is grounded
and the input signal drives VIP), the input impedance becomes
RG
RF

2(RG  RF )
Consider the case in Figure 61, where VIN is 5 V p-p swinging
about a baseline at ground, and VREF is connected to ground.
(19)
The circuit has a differential gain of 1.6 and β = 0.38. VICM has
an amplitude of 2.5 V p-p and is swinging about ground. Using
the results in Equation 16, the common-mode voltage at the
inputs of the AD8139, VACM, is a 1.5 V p-p signal swinging
about a baseline of 0.95 V. The maximum negative excursion
of VACM in this case is 0.2 V, which exceeds the lower input
common-mode voltage limit.

One way to avoid the input common-mode swing limitation is
to bias VIN and VREF at midsupply. In this case, VIN is 5 V p-p
swinging about a baseline at 2.5 V, and VREF is connected to a
low-Z 2.5 V source. VICM now has an amplitude of 2.5 V p-p and
is swinging about 2.5 V. Using the results in Equation 17, VACM
is calculated to be equal to VICM because VOCM = VICM. Therefore,
VACM swings from 1.25 V to 3.75 V, which is well within the
input common-mode voltage limits of the AD8139. Another
benefit seen in this example is that because VOCM = VACM = VICM
no wasted common-mode current flows. Figure 62 illustrates
how to provide the low-Z bias voltage. For situations that do not
require a precise reference, a simple voltage divider suffices to
develop the input voltage to the buffer.

Other Impact of Mismatches in the Feedback Networks
Another way to avoid the input common-mode swing limitation is
to use dual power supplies on the AD8139. In this case, the
biasing circuitry is not required.
Bandwidth vs. Closed-Loop Gain
The 3 dB bandwidth of the AD8139 decreases proportionally
to increasing closed-loop gain in the same way as a traditional
voltage feedback operational amplifier. For closed-loop gains
greater than 4, the bandwidth obtained for a specific gain can be
estimated as

Primary differential output offset errors in the AD8139 are due
to three major components: the input offset voltage, the offset
between the VAN and VAP input currents interacting with the
feedback network resistances, and the offset produced by the dc
voltage difference between the input and output common-mode
voltages in conjunction with matching errors in the feedback
network.
where VIO is the input offset voltage. The input offset voltage of the
AD8139 is laser trimmed and guaranteed to be less than 500 μV.

Estimating DC Errors
(20)
or equivalently, β(300 MHz).
The internal common-mode feedback network still forces the
output voltages to remain balanced, even when the RF/RG feedback
networks are mismatched. However, the mismatch causes a gain
error proportional to the feedback network mismatch.
Ratio-matching errors in the external resistors degrade the ability
to reject common-mode signals at the VAN and VIN input terminals,
much the same as with a four-resistor difference amplifier made
from a conventional op amp. Ratio-matching errors also produce a
differential output component that is equal to the VOCM input
voltage times the difference between the feedback factors (βs).
In most applications using 1% resistors, this component amounts
to a differential dc offset at the output that is small enough to be
ignored.
This estimate assumes a minimum 90° phase margin for the
amplifier loop, which is a condition approached for gains greater
than 4. Lower gains show more bandwidth than predicted by
the equation due to the peaking produced by the lower
phase margin.

CLOSED LOOP GAIN (dB)
A purely capacitive load reacts with the bondwire and pin
inductance of the AD8139, resulting in high frequency ringing
in the transient response and loss of phase margin. One way to
minimize this effect is to place a small resistor in series with
each output to buffer the load capacitance (see Figure 58 and
Figure 63). The resistor and load capacitance form a first-order,
low-pass filter; therefore, the resistor value should be as small as
possible. In some cases, the ADCs require small series resistors
to be added on their inputs.
The input resistance presented by the AD8139 input circuitry is
seen in parallel with the termination resistor, and its loading
effect must be taken into account. The Thevenin equivalent
circuit of the driver, its source resistance, and the termination
resistance must all be included in the calculation as well. An
exact solution to the problem requires the solution of several
simultaneous algebraic equations and is beyond the scope of
this data sheet. An iterative solution is also possible and simpler,
especially considering the fact that standard 1% resistor values
are generally used.
Figure 63. Frequency Response for
Various Capacitive Loads and Series Resistances
The Typical Performance Characteristics that illustrate transient
response vs. the capacitive load were generated using series
resistors in each output and a differential capacitive load.
Layout Considerations
Standard high speed PCB layout practices should be adhered
to when designing with the AD8139. A solid ground plane is
recommended, and good wideband power supply decoupling
networks should be placed as close as possible to the supply pins.
To minimize stray capacitance at the summing nodes, the copper
in all layers under all traces and pads that connect to the summing
nodes should be removed. Small amounts of stray summing-node
capacitance cause peaking in the frequency response, and large
amounts can cause instability. If some stray summing-node
capacitance is unavoidable, its effects can be compensated for
by placing small capacitors across the feedback resistors.
Terminating a Single-Ended Input
Controlled impedance interconnections are used in most
high speed signal applications, and they require at least one
line termination. In analog applications, a matched resistive
termination is generally placed at the load end of the line. This
section deals with how to properly terminate a single-ended
input to the AD8139.
The termination resistor, RT, in parallel with the 268 Ω input
resistance of the AD8139 circuit (calculated using Equation 19),
yields an overall input resistance of 50 Ω that is seen by the signal
source. To have matched feedback loops, each loop must have
the same RG if they have the same RF. In the input (upper) loop,
RG is equal to the 200 Ω resistor in series with the (+) input plus
the parallel combination of RT and the source resistance of 50 Ω.
In the upper loop, RG is therefore equal to 228 Ω. The closest
standard 1% value to 228 Ω is 226 Ω and is used for RG in the
lower loop. Greater accuracy could be achieved by using two
resistors in series to obtain a resistance closer to 228 Ω.
Things get more complicated when it comes to determining the
feedback resistor values. The amplitude of the signal source
generator VS is two times the amplitude of its output signal when
terminated in 50 Ω. Therefore, a 2 V p-p terminated amplitude
is produced by a 4 V p-p amplitude from VS. The Thevenin
equivalent circuit of the signal source and RT must be used when
calculating the closed-loop gain, because in the upper loop, RG is
split between the 200 Ω resistor and the Thevenin resistance
looking back toward the source. The Thevenin voltage of the
signal source is greater than the signal source output voltage
when terminated in 50 Ω because RT must always be greater than
50 Ω. In this case, RT is 61.9 Ω and the Thevenin voltage and
resistance are 2.2 V p-p and 28 Ω, respectively. Now the upper
input branch can be viewed as a 2.2 V p-p source in series
with 228 Ω. Because this is a unity-gain application, a 2 V p-p
differential output is required, and RF must therefore be 228 ×
(2/2.2) = 206 Ω. The closest standard value to this is 205 Ω.
When generating the Typical Performance Characteristics data,
the measurements were calibrated to take the effects of the
terminations on the closed-loop gain into account.

Exposed Paddle (EP)
Because this is a single-ended-to-differential application on a
single supply, the input common-mode voltage swing must be
checked. From Figure 64, β = 0.52, VOCM = 2.4 V, and VICM is
1.1 V p-p swinging about ground. Using Equation 16, VACM is
calculated to be 0.53 V p-p swinging about a baseline of 1.25 V,
and the minimum negative excursion is approximately 1 V.
The 8-lead SOIC and the 8-lead LFCSP have an exposed paddle
on the bottom of the package. To achieve the specified thermal
resistance, the exposed paddle must be soldered to one of the
PCB planes. The exposed paddle mounting pad should contain
several thermal vias within it to ensure a low thermal path to
the plane.
