If driving loads with a capacitive component is desired, best frequency response is obtained by the addition of a small series resistance as shown in Figure 28. The inset figure shows the optimum value for RSERIES vs. capacitive load. It is worth noting that the frequency response of the circuit when driving large capacitive loads will be dominated by the passive roll-off of RSERIES and CL. OUTPUT 0 INPUT (500mV/DIV) OUTPUT (1V/DIV) LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS 100ns The specified high speed performance of the AD8010 requires careful attention to board layout and component selection. Proper RF design techniques and low-pass parasitic component selection are necessary. Figure 27. Overdrive Recovery; G = +6 OVERDRIVE RECOVERY The PCB should have a ground plane covering all unused portions of the component side of the board to provide low impedance path. The ground plane should be removed from the area near the input pins to reduce the parasitic capacitance. Overdrive of an amplifier occurs when the output and/or input range are exceeded. The amplifier must recover from this overdrive condition. As shown in Figure 27, the AD8010 recovers within 35 ns from negative overdrive and within 75 ns from positive overdrive. –VS +VS THEORY OF OPERATION The AD8010 is a current feedback amplifier optimized for high current output while maintaining excellent performance with respect to flatness, distortion and differential gain/phase. As a video distribution amplifier, the AD8010 will drive up to 12 parallel video loads (12.5 Ω) from a single output with 0.04% differential gain and 0.04° differential phase errors. This means that, unlike designs with one driver per output, any output is a true reflection of the signal on all other outputs. FB C1 + 150V VIN RBT RT RF The high output current capability of the AD8010 also make it useful in xDSL applications. The AD8010 can drive a 12.5 Ω single-ended or 25 Ω differential load with low harmonic distortion. This makes it useful in designs that utilize a step-up transformer to drive a twisted-pair transmission line. The standard noninverting closed-loop configuration with the recommended power supply bypassing technique is shown in Figure 29. Ferrite beads (Amidon Associates, Torrance CA, Part Number 43101) are used to suppress high frequency power supply energy on the DUT supply lines at the DUT. C1 and C2 each represent the parallel combination of a 47 µF (16 V) tantalum electrolytic capacitor, a 10 µF (10 V) tantalum electrolytic capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic chip capacitor. Connect C1 from the +VS pin to the –VS pin. Connect C2 from the –VS pin to signal ground.

Parasitic capacitances of less than 1 pF at the inverting input can significantly affect high speed performance. G = +2 Stripline design techniques should be used for long traces (greater than about 3 cm). These should be designed with a characteristic impedance (ZO) of 50 Ω or 75 Ω and be properly terminated at each end. G = +1 1 0 5 10 RL Figure 29. Standard Noninverting Closed-Loop Configuration with Recommended Bypassing Technique 200 G = +5 C2 + RG To achieve these levels of performance special precautions with respect to supply bypassing are recommended (Figure 29). This configuration minimizes the contribution from high frequency supply rejection to differential gain and phase errors as well as reducing distortion due to harmonic energy in the power supplies. 100 ZO AD8010 15 20 RS – V Figure 28. Capacitive Load Drive vs. Series Resistor for Various Gains –8– REV. A AD8010 The bypassing scheme that is used for the AD8010 requires special attention. It was found that the conventional technique of bypassing each power pin individually to ground can have an adverse effect on the differential phase error of the circuit. The cause of this is attributed to the fact that there is an internal compensation capacitor in the AD8010 that is referenced to the negative supply. APPLICATIONS Video Distribution Amplifier The AD8010 is optimized for the specific function of providing excellent video performance when driving multiple video loads in parallel. Significant power is saved and heat sinking is greatly simplified because of the ability of the AD8010 to obtain this performance when running on a ± 5 V supply. However, due to the high currents that flow when driving many parallel video loads, special layout and bypassing techniques are required to assure optimal performance. The recommended technique is to connect parallel bypass capacitors from the positive supply to the negative supply and then to bypass the negative supply to ground. For high frequency bypassing, 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors are recommended. These should be placed within a few millimeters of the power pins and should preferably be chip type capacitors. When designing a video distribution amplifier with the AD8010, it is very important to keep in mind where the high (ac) currents will flow. These paths include the power supply pins of the chip along with the bypass capacitors and the return path for these capacitors, the output circuits and the return path of the output current from the loads. The high currents that can potentially flow through the power supply pins require large bypassing capacitors. These should be low inductance tantalum types and at least 47 µF. The ground side of the capacitor that bypasses the negative supply should be brought to a single point ground that is the common for the returns of the outputs. In general, any loops that are formed by any of the above paths should be made as small as possible. Large loops are both generators and receivers of magnetic fields and can cause undesired coupling of signals that lowers the performance of the amplifier. Effects that have not been seen before in other op amp circuits might arise because of the high currents. Most op amp circuits output, at most, tens of milliamps and do not require extremely tight video specifications, while a video distribution amplifier can output hundreds of milliamps and require extremely low differential gain and phase errors. Figure 30 shows a circuit for making an N-channel video distribution amplifier. As a practical matter, the AD8010 can readily drive eight standard 150 Ω video loads. When driving up to 12 video loads, there is minimal degradation in video performance. Another important consideration when driving multiple cables is the high frequency isolation between the outputs of the cables. Due to its low output impedance, the AD8010 achieves better than 46 dB of output-to-output isolation at 5 MHz driving back terminated 75 Ω cables. +5V FB 499V 499V 75V AD8010 150V VIN C1 75V RL1 75V RL2 75V RLN 75V 75V C2 FB –5V 75V Figure 30.

A –9– AD8010 Differential Line Driver In the circuit in Figure 31 the A device is configured as a gainof-two follower, while the B device is a gain-of-two inverter. These will produce a differential output signal whose maximum value is twice the peak-to-peak value of the maximum output of one device. For this circuit a 12 V peak-to-peak output can be obtained. Twisted pair transmission lines are more often being used for high frequency analog and digital signals. Over long distances, however, the attenuation characteristics of these lines can degrade the performance of the transmission system. To compensate for this, larger signals are transmitted, which after the attenuation, will still have useful signal strength. The high output current of two AD8010s can be used along with a transformer to create a high power differential line driver. The differential configuration effectively doubles the output swing, while the step-up transformer further increases the output voltage. The op amps drive a 1:2 step-up transformer that drives a 100 Ω transmission line. Since the impedance reflected back to the primary varies as the square of the turns ratio, it will appear as 25 Ω at the primary. This source terminating resistor is split as a 12.4 Ω resistor at the output of each device. The circuit shown is capable of delivering 12 V p-p to the line and operates with a –3 dB bandwidth of 40 MHz. The peak current output of either op amp is 100 mA. 499V 499V AD8010 12.4V +6 150V VIN 402V 806V AD8010 100V 12.4V 1:2 –6 150V Figure 31. High Output Differential Line Driver Using Two AD8010s.

A AD8010 Closed-Loop Gain and Bandwidth The AD8010 is a current feedback amplifier optimized for use in high performance video and data acquisition applications. Since it uses a current feedback architecture, its closed-loop –3 dB bandwidth is dependent on the magnitude of the feedback resistor. The desired closed-loop bandwidth and gain are obtained by varying the feedback resistor (RF) to set the bandwidth, and varying the gain resistor (RG) to set the desired gain. The characteristic curves and specifications for this data sheet reflect the performance of the AD8010 using the values of RF noted at the top of the specifications table. If a greater –3 dB bandwidth and/or slew rate is required (at the expense of video performance), Table I provides the recommended resistor values. Figure 32 shows the test circuit and conditions used to produce Table I. Effect of Feedback Resistor Tolerance on Gain Flatness Because of the relationship between the 3 dB bandwidth and the feedback resistor, the fine scale gain flatness will, to some extent, vary with feedback resistor tolerance. It is therefore recommended that resistors with a 1% tolerance be used if it is desired to maintain flatness over a wide range of production lots. In addition, resistors of different construction have different associated parasitic capacitance and inductance. Metal-film resistors were used for the bulk of the characterization for this data sheet. It is possible that values other than those indicated will be optimal for other resistor types. Quality of Coaxial Cable Optimum flatness when driving a coax cable is possible only when the driven cable is terminated at each end with a resistor matching its characteristic impedance. If the coax was ideal, then the resulting flatness would not be affected by the length of the cable. While outstanding results can be achieved using inexpensive cables, it should be noted that some variation in flatness due to varying cable lengths may be experienced.
