AD ADA4932-1YCPZ-RL1 Low power differential adc driver Datasheet

Low Power
Differential ADC Driver
ADA4932-1/ADA4932-2
With the ADA4932-x, differential gain configurations are easily
realized with a simple external four-resistor feedback network that
determines the closed-loop gain of the amplifier.
The ADA4932-x is fabricated using the Analog Devices, Inc.,
proprietary silicon-germanium (SiGe) complementary bipolar
process, enabling it to achieve low levels of distortion and noise
at low power consumption. The low offset and excellent dynamic
performance of the ADA4932-x make it well suited for a wide
variety of data acquisition and signal processing applications.

The ADA4932-x is the next generation AD8132 with higher
performance, and lower noise and power consumption. It is an
ideal choice for driving high performance ADCs as a single-endedto-differential or differential-to-differential amplifier. The output
common-mode voltage is user adjustable by means of an internal
common-mode feedback loop, allowing the ADA4932-x output
to match the input of the ADC. The internal feedback loop also
provides exceptional output balance as well as suppression of
even-order harmonic distortion products.

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.
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. The quiescent power is the voltage
between the supply pins (VS) times the quiescent current (IS).
The power dissipated due to the load drive depends upon the
particular application. The power due to load drive is calculated
by multiplying the load current by the associated voltage drop
across the device. RMS voltages and currents must be used in
these calculations.
Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing θJA. In
addition, more metal directly in contact with the package leads/
exposed pad from metal traces, through holes, ground, and power
planes reduces θJA.
Figure 4 shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the
package vs. the ambient temperature for the single 16-lead
LFCSP (91°C/W) and the dual 24-lead LFCSP (65°C/W) on a
JEDEC standard 4-layer board with the exposed pad soldered to
a PCB pad that is connected to a solid plane.

θJA is specified for the device (including exposed pad) soldered
to a high thermal conductivity 2s2p circuit board, as described
in EIA/JESD 51-7.

MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION (W)
THERMAL RESISTANCE
MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum safe power dissipation in the ADA4932-x
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 ADA4932-x. Exceeding a
junction temperature of 150°C for an extended period can result
in changes in the silicon devices, potentially causing failure.

Differential Voltage
Differential voltage refers to the difference between two
node voltages. For example, the output differential voltage (or
equivalently, output differential mode voltage) is defined as
VOUT, dm = (V+OUT − V−OUT)
where V+OUT and V−OUT refer to the voltages at the +OUT and
−OUT terminals with respect to a common ground reference.
Similarly, the differential input voltage is defined as
Balance
Output balance is a measure of how close the output differential
signals are to being equal in amplitude and opposite in phase.
Output balance is most easily determined by placing a wellmatched resistor divider between the differential voltage nodes
and comparing the magnitude of the signal at the divider midpoint
with the magnitude of the differential signal (see Figure 53). By
this definition, output balance is the magnitude of the output
common-mode voltage divided by the magnitude of the output
differential mode voltage.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADA4932-x differs from conventional op amps in that it
has two outputs whose voltages move in opposite directions and
an additional input, VOCM. Like an op amp, it relies on high openloop gain and negative feedback to force these outputs to the
desired voltages. The ADA4932-x behaves much like a standard
voltage feedback op amp and facilitates single-ended-to-differential
conversions, common-mode level shifting, and amplifications of
differential signals. Like an op amp, the ADA4932-x has high input
impedance and low output impedance. Because it uses voltage
feedback, the ADA4932-x manifests a nominally constant gain
bandwidth product.
Two feedback loops are employed to control the differential and
common-mode output voltages. The differential feedback, set
with external resistors, controls only the differential output voltage.
The common-mode feedback controls only the common-mode
output voltage. This architecture makes it easy to set the output
common-mode level to any arbitrary value within the specified
limits. The output common-mode voltage is forced, by the internal
common-mode feedback loop, to be equal to the voltage applied
to the VOCM input.
The internal common-mode feedback loop produces outputs
that are highly balanced over a wide frequency range without
requiring tightly matched external components. This results in
differential outputs that are very close to the ideal of being
identical in amplitude and are exactly 180° apart in phase.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
ANALYZING AN APPLICATION CIRCUIT
The ADA4932-x uses high open-loop gain and negative feedback
to force its differential and common-mode output voltages in
such a way as to minimize the differential and common-mode
error voltages. The differential error voltage is defined as the
voltage between the differential inputs labeled +IN and −IN
(see Figure 55). For most purposes, this voltage can be assumed
to be zero. Similarly, the difference between the actual output
common-mode voltage and the voltage applied to VOCM can also
be assumed to be zero. Starting from these principles, any application circuit can be analyzed.
SETTING THE CLOSED-LOOP GAIN
Using the approach described in the Analyzing an Application
Circuit section, the differential gain of the circuit in Figure 55
can be determined by
input, and the noise currents, inIN− and inIN+, appear between
each input and ground. The output voltage due to vnIN is obtained
by multiplying vnIN by the noise gain, GN (defined in the GN
equation that follows). The noise currents are uncorrelated with
the same mean-square value, and each produces an output voltage
that is equal to the noise current multiplied by the associated
feedback resistance. The noise voltage density at the VOCM pin is
vnCM. When the feedback networks have the same feedback factor,
as is true in most cases, the output noise due to vnCM is common
mode. Each of the four resistors contributes (4kTRxx)1/2. The
noise from the feedback resistors appears directly at the output,
and the noise from the gain resistors appears at the output multiplied by RF/RG. Table 11 summarizes the input noise sources, the
multiplication factors, and the output-referred noise density terms.

Similar to the case of a conventional op amp, the output noise
voltage densities can be estimated by multiplying the inputreferred terms at +IN and −IN by the appropriate output factor,
where:
As a practical summarization of the above issues, resistors of 1%
tolerance produce a worst-case input CMRR of approximately
40 dB, a worst-case differential-mode output offset of 25 mV
due to a 2.5 V VOCM input, negligible VOCM noise contribution,
and no significant degradation in output balance error.

CALCULATING THE INPUT IMPEDANCE FOR AN
APPLICATION CIRCUIT
The effective input impedance of a circuit depends on whether
the amplifier is being driven by a single-ended or differential
signal source. For balanced differential input signals, as shown
in Figure 57, the input impedance (RIN, dm) between the inputs
(+DIN and −DIN) is RIN, dm = RG + RG = 2 × RG.

IMPACT OF MISMATCHES IN THE FEEDBACK
NETWORKS
As previously mentioned, even if the external feedback networks
(RF/RG) are mismatched, the internal common-mode feedback
loop still forces the outputs to remain balanced. The amplitudes
of the signals at each output remain equal and 180° out of phase.
The input-to-output differential mode gain varies proportionately
to the feedback mismatch, but the output balance is unaffected.

For an unbalanced, single-ended input signal (see Figure 58),

RF
When β1 = β2, this term goes to zero and there is no differential
output voltage due to the voltage on the VOCM input (including
noise). The extreme case occurs when one loop is open and the
other has 100% feedback; in this case, the gain from VOCM input
to VOUT, dm is either +2 or −2, depending on which loop is closed.
The feedback loops are nominally matched to within 1% in
most applications, and the output noise and offsets due to the
VOCM input are negligible. If the loops are intentionally mismatched
by a large amount, it is necessary to include the gain term from
VOCM to VOUT, dm and account for the extra noise. For example, if
β1 = 0.5 and β2 = 0.25, the gain from VOCM to VOUT, dm is 0.67. If
the VOCM pin is set to 2.5 V, a differential offset voltage is present at
the output of (2.5 V)(0.67) = 1.67 V. The differential output noise
contribution is (9.6 nV/√Hz)(0.67) = 6.4 nV/√Hz. Both of these
results are undesirable in most applications; therefore, it is best
to use nominally matched feedback factors.

Mismatched feedback networks also result in a degradation of
the ability of the circuit to reject input common-mode signals,
much the same as for a four-resistor difference amplifier made
from a conventional op amp.
Figure 58. ADA4932-x with Unbalanced (Single-Ended) Input
The input impedance of the circuit is effectively higher than it is
for a conventional op amp connected as an inverter because a
fraction of the differential output voltage appears at the inputs
as a common-mode signal, partially bootstrapping the voltage
across the input resistor, RG. The common-mode voltage at the
amplifier input terminals can be easily determined by noting that
the voltage at the inverting input is equal to the noninverting
output voltage divided down by the voltage divider that is formed
by RF and RG in the lower loop. This voltage is present at both

Figure 60 shows that the effective RG in the upper feedback
loop is now greater than the RG in the lower loop due to the
addition of the termination resistors. To compensate for the
imbalance of the gain resistors, add a correction resistor (RTS)
in series with RG in the lower loop. RTS is the Thevenin
equivalent of the source resistance, RS, and the termination
resistance, RT, and is equal to RS||RT.
Terminating a Single-Ended Input
This section describes how to properly terminate a single-ended
input to the ADA4932-x with a gain of 1, RF = 499 Ω, and RG =
499 Ω. An example using an input source with a terminated output
voltage of 1 V p-p and source resistance of 50 Ω illustrates the four
steps that must be followed. Note that because the terminated
output voltage of the source is 1 V p-p, the open-circuit output
voltage of the source is 2 V p-p. The source shown in Figure 59
indicates this open-circuit voltage.

Figure 62 presents a tractable circuit with matched
feedback loops that can be easily evaluated.
To match the 50 Ω source resistance, calculate the
termination resistor, RT, using RT||665 Ω = 50 Ω. The
closest standard 1% value for RT is 53.6 Ω.
It is useful to point out two effects that occur with a terminated input. The first is that the value of RG is increased in
both loops, lowering the overall closed-loop gain. The
second is that VTH is a little larger than 1 V p-p, as it would
be if RT = 50 Ω. These two effects have opposite impacts on
the output voltage, and for large resistor values in the feedback
loops (~1 kΩ), the effects essentially cancel each other out.
For small RF and RG, or high gains, however, the diminished
closed-loop gain is not canceled completely by the increased
VTH. This can be seen by evaluating Figure 62.

The desired differential output in this example is 1 V p-p
because the terminated input signal was 1 V p-p and the
closed-loop gain = 1. The actual differential output voltage,
however, is equal to (1.03 V p-p)(499/524.5) = 0.98 V p-p.
To obtain the desired output voltage of 1 V p-p, a final gain
adjustment can be made by increasing RF without modifying
any of the input circuitry. This is discussed in Step 4.

The closest standard 1% value to 509 Ω is 511 Ω, which
gives a differential output voltage of 1.00 V p-p.
SETTING THE OUTPUT COMMON-MODE VOLTAGE
The VOCM pin of the ADA4932-x is internally biased with a voltage divider comprised of two 50 kΩ resistors across the supplies,
with a tap at a voltage approximately equal to the midsupply
point, [(+VS) + (−VS)]/2. Because of this internal divider, the
VOCM pin sources and sinks current, depending on the externally
applied voltage and its associated source resistance. Relying on
the internal bias results in an output common-mode voltage
that is within about 100 mV of the expected value.
The final circuit is shown in Figure 63.

While the ADA4932-x is best suited to dc-coupled applications,
it is nonetheless possible to use it in ac-coupled circuits. Input
ac coupling capacitors can be inserted between the source and
RG. This ac coupling blocks the flow of the dc common-mode
feedback current and causes the ADA4932-x dc input commonmode voltage to equal the dc output common-mode voltage.
These ac coupling capacitors must be placed in both loops to keep
the feedback factors matched. Output ac coupling capacitors can
be placed in series between each output and its respective load.

INPUT COMMON-MODE VOLTAGE RANGE
The ADA4932-x input common-mode range is shifted down
by approximately one VBE, in contrast to other ADC drivers
with centered input ranges such as the ADA4939-x. The
downward-shifted input common-mode range is especially
suited to dc-coupled, single-ended-to-differential, and singlesupply applications.
For ±5 V operation, the input common-mode range at the
summing nodes of the amplifier is specified as −4.8 V to +3.2 V,
and is specified as +0.2 V to +3.2 V with a +5 V supply. To
avoid nonlinearities, the voltage swing at the +IN and −IN
terminals must be confined to these ranges.
In cases where more accurate control of the output commonmode level is required, it is recommended that an external
source or resistor divider be used with source resistance less
than 100 Ω. If an external voltage divider consisting of equal
resistor values is used to set VOCM to midsupply with greater
accuracy than produced internally, higher values can be used
because the external resistors are placed in parallel with the
internal resistors. The output common-mode offset listed in the
Specifications section assumes that the VOCM input is driven by a
low impedance voltage source.
It is also possible to connect the VOCM input to a common-mode
level (CML) output of an ADC; however, care must be taken to
ensure that the output has sufficient drive capability. The input
impedance of the VOCM pin is approximately 10 kΩ. If multiple
ADA4932-x devices share one ADC reference output, a buffer
may be necessary to drive the parallel inputs.

LAYOUT, GROUNDING, AND BYPASSING
As a high speed device, the ADA4932-x is sensitive to the
PCB environment in which it operates. Realizing its superior
performance requires attention to the details of high speed
PCB design.
Bypass the power supply pins as close to the device as possible
and directly to a nearby ground plane. High frequency ceramic
chip capacitors should be used. It is recommended that two
parallel bypass capacitors (1000 pF and 0.1 μF) be used for each
supply. Place the 1000 pF capacitor closer to the device. Further
away, provide low frequency bulk bypassing using 10 μF tantalum
capacitors from each supply to ground.
The first requirement is a solid ground plane that covers as much
of the board area around the ADA4932-x as possible. However,
the area near the feedback resistors (RF), gain resistors (RG), and
the input summing nodes (Pin 2 and Pin 3) should be cleared of
all ground and power planes (see Figure 64). Clearing the ground
and power planes minimizes any stray capacitance at these nodes
and thus minimizes peaking of the response of the amplifier at
high frequencies.
Signal routing should be short and direct to avoid parasitic effects.
Wherever complementary signals exist, provide a symmetrical
layout to maximize balanced performance. When routing
differential signals over a long distance, keep PCB traces close
together, and twist any differential wiring to minimize loop
area. Doing this reduces radiated energy and makes the circuit
less susceptible to interference.
The thermal resistance, θJA, is specified for the device, including
the exposed pad, soldered to a high thermal conductivity 4-layer
circuit board, as described in EIA/JESD51-7.

HIGH PERFORMANCE ADC DRIVING
In this example, the signal generator has a 1 V p-p symmetric,
ground-referenced bipolar output when terminated in 50 Ω.
The VOCM input is bypassed for noise reduction, and set externally
with 1% resistors to maximize output dynamic range on the
tight 3.3 V supply.
The ADA4932-x is ideally suited for broadband dc-coupled
applications. The circuit in Figure 67 shows a front-end
connection for an ADA4932-1 driving an AD9245, a 14-bit,
20 MSPS/40 MSPS/65 MSPS/80 MSPS ADC, with dc coupling
on the ADA4932-1 input and output. (The AD9245 achieves
its optimum performance when driven differentially.) The
ADA4932-1 eliminates the need for a transformer to drive the
ADC and performs a single-ended-to-differential conversion and
buffering of the driving signal.
Because the inputs are dc-coupled, dc common-mode current
flows in the feedback loops, and a nominal dc level of 0.84 V is
present at the amplifier input terminals. A fraction of the output
signal is also present at the input terminals as a common-mode
signal; its level is equal to the ac output swing at the noninverting
output, divided down by the feedback factor of the lower loop.
In this example, this ripple is 0.5 V p-p × [524.5/(524.5 + 511)] =
0.25 V p-p. This ac signal is riding on the 0.84 V dc level, producing a voltage swing between 0.72 V and 0.97 V at the input
terminals. This is well within the specified limits of 0.2 V to 1.5 V.
The ADA4932-1 is configured with a single 3.3 V supply and a
gain of 1 for a single-ended input to differential output. The
53.6 Ω termination resistor, in parallel with the single-ended
input impedance of approximately 665 Ω, provides a 50 Ω
termination for the source. The additional 25.5 Ω (524.5 Ω
total) at the inverting input balances the parallel impedance
of the 50 Ω source and the termination resistor driving the
noninverting input.
With an output common-mode voltage of 1.65 V, each ADA4932-1
output swings between 1.4 V and 1.9 V, opposite in phase, providing a gain of 1 and a 1 V p-p differential signal to the ADC input.
The differential RC section between the ADA4932-1 output and
the ADC provides single-pole low-pass filtering and extra buffering
for the current spikes that are output from the ADC input when its
SHA capacitors are discharged.
The AD9245 is configured for a 1 V p-p full-scale input by
connecting its SENSE pin to VREF, as shown in Figure 67.
