It has very low noise at 1.9 nV/√Hz, and extremely low harmonic distortion of –75 dBc HD2 and –80 dBc HD3 at 100 MHz with 2 Vpp, G = 10 dB, and 1 kΩ load. Slew rate is very high at 6600 Vµs and with settling time of 2 ns to 1% (2 V step) it is ideal for pulsed applications. It is designed for minimum gain of 6 dB, but is optimized for gain of 10 dB. To allow for dc coupling to ADCs, its unique output common-mode control circuit maintains the output common-mode voltage within 3 mV offset (typ) from the set voltage, when set within 0.5 V of mid-supply, with less than 4 mV differential offset voltage. The common-mode set point is set to mid-supply by internal circuitry, which may be over-driven from an external source. The input and output are optimized for best performance with their common-mode voltages set to mid-supply. Along with high performance at low power supply voltage, this makes for extremely high performance single supply 5 V data acquisition systems. The combined performance of the THS4509 in a gain of 10 dB driving the ADS5500 ADC, sampling at 125 MSPS, is 81 dBc SFDR and 69.1 dBc SNR with a –1 dBFS signal at 70 MHz. The THS4509 is offered in a Quad 16-pin leadless QFN package (RGT), and is characterized for operation over the full industrial temperature range from –40°C to 85°C.

For simplicity, power supply decoupling is not shown – see layout in the applications section for recommendations. Depending on the test conditions, component values are changed per the following tables, or as otherwise noted. The signal generators used are ac coupled 50-Ω sources and a 0.22-µF capacitor and a 49.9-Ω resistor to ground are inserted across RIT on the alternate input to balance the circuit. A split power supply is used to ease the interface to common test equipment, but the amplifier can be operated single-supply as described in the applications section with no impact on performance. The output is probed using a high-impedance differential probe across the 100-Ω resistor. The gain is referred to the amplifier output by adding back the 6-dB loss due to the voltage divider on the output.

Components are chosen to achieve load and 50-Ω line termination through a 1:1 transformer. Due to the voltage divider on the output formed by the load component values, the amplifier's output is attenuated. The column Atten in Table 2 shows the attenuation expected from the resistor divider. When using a transformer at the output as shown in Figure 76, the signal will see slightly more loss, and these numbers will be approximate. Frequency Response The circuit shown in Figure 75 is used to measure the frequency response of the circuit. A network analyzer is used as the signal source and as the measurement device. The output impedance of the network analyzer is 50 Ω. RIT and RG are chosen to impedance match to 50 Ω, and to maintain the proper gain. To balance the amplifier, a 0.22-µF capacitor and 49.9-Ω resistor to ground are inserted across RIT on the alternate input. Distortion and 1dB Compression The circuit shown in Figure 76 is used to measure harmonic distortion, intermodulation distortion, and 1-db compression point of the amplifier. A signal generator is used as the signal source and the output is measured with a spectrum analyzer. The output impedance of the signal generator is 50 Ω. RIT and RG are chosen to impedance-match to 50 Ω, and to maintain the proper gain. To balance the amplifier, a 0.22-µF capacitor and 49.9-Ω resistor to ground are inserted across RIT on the alternate input. A low-pass filter is inserted in series with the input to reduce harmonics generated at the signal source. The level of the fundamental is measured, then a high-pass filter is inserted at the output to reduce the fundamental so that it does not generate distortion in the input of the spectrum analyzer. The transformer used in the output to convert the signal from differential to single ended is an ADT1-1WT. It limits the frequency response of the circuit so that measurements cannot be made below approximately 1MHz.

The input power is increased until the output is 1 dB lower than expected. The number reported in the table data is the power delivered to the spectrum analyzer input. Add 3 dB to refer to the amplifier output. S-Parameter, Slew Rate, Transient Response, Settling Time, Output Impedance, Overdrive, Output Voltage, and Turn-On/Off Time The circuit shown in Figure 77 is used to measure s-parameters, slew rate, transient response, settling time, output impedance, overdrive recovery, output voltage swing, and turn-on/turn-off times of the amplifier. For output impedance, the signal is injected at VOUT with VIN left open and the drop across the 49.9 Ω resistor is used to calculate the impedance seen looking into the amplifier’s output. Because S21 is measured single-ended at the load with 50-Ω double termination, add 12 dB to refer to the amplifier’s output as a differential signal. From V IN 50 Ω Source RG R IT RF VS+ at VOUT+ or VOUT– with the input injected at VIN, RCM = 0 Ω and RCMT = 49.9 Ω.

For simplicity, power supply decoupling capacitors are not shown in these diagrams. Please see the Subsection 1 section for recommendations. For more detail on the use and operation of fully differential op amps refer to application report Fully-Differential Amplifiers (SLOA054) . Differential Input to Differential Output Amplifier The THS4509 is a fully differential op amp, and can be used to amplify differential input signals to differential output signals. A basic block diagram of the circuit is shown in Figure 80 (CM input not shown). The gain of the circuit is set by RF divided by RG.

Differential Input to Differential Ouput Amplifier Depending on the source and load, input and output termination can be accomplished by adding RIT and RO. Single-Ended Input to Differential Output Amplifier The THS4509 can be used to amplify and convert single-ended input signals to differential output signals. A basic block diagram of the circuit is shown in Figure 81 (CM input not shown). The gain of the circuit is again set by RF divided by RG. RG RF VS Differential Output + – VOUT– THS 4509 RG – + VOUT+ VS RF Figure 81. Single-Ended Input to Differential Output Amplifier Input Common-Mode Voltage Range The input common-model voltage of a fully differential op amp is the voltage at the '+' and '–' input pins of the op amp. It is important to not violate the input common-mode voltage range (VICR) of the op amp. Assuming the op amp is in linear operation the voltage across the input pins is only a few millivolts at most. So finding the voltage at one input pin will determine the input common-mode voltage of the op amp. Treating the negative input as a summing node, the voltage is given by Equation 1: ö æ ö æ RG RF ÷ ÷ + ç VIN- ´ VIC = çç VOUT + ´ ÷ ÷ ç R R R R + + G F ø G F ø è è (1) To determine the VICR of the op amp, the voltage at the negative input is evaluated at the extremes of VOUT+. As the gain of the op amp increases, the input common-mode voltage becomes closer and closer to the input common-mode voltage of the source. Setting the Output Common-Mode Voltage The output common-mode voltage is set by the voltage at the CM pin(s). The internal common-mode control circuit maintains the output common-mode voltage within 3-mV offset (typ) from the set voltage, when set within 0.5 V of mid-supply, with less than 4mV differential offset voltage. If left unconnected, the common-mode set point is set to mid-supply by internal circuitry, which may be over-driven from an external source. Figure 82 is representative of the CM input. The internal CM circuit has about 700 MHz of –3-dB bandwidth, which is required for best per- 21 THS4509 www.ti.com SLOS454 – JANUARY 2005 formance, but it is intended to be a DC bias input pin. Bypass capacitors are recommended on this pin to reduce noise at the output. The external current required to overdrive the internal resistor divider is given by Equation 2: IEXT = 2VCM - (VS + - VS - ) 50 kW RS RG RF VS+ RT VSignal RO VCM VBias= VCM (2) THS4509 RG RS VCM VS+ to internal CM circuit CM 50 kW V S– To facilitate testing with common lab equipment, the THS4509 EVM allows split-supply operation, and the characterization data presented in this data sheet was taken with split-supply power inputs. The device can easily be used with a single-supply power input without degrading the performance. Figure 83, Figure 84, and Figure 85 show DC and AC-coupled single-supply circuits with single-ended inputs. These configurations all allow the input and output common-mode voltage to be set to mid-supply allowing for optimum performance. The information presented here can also be applied to differential input sources. In Figure 83, the source is referenced to the same voltage as the CM pin (VCM). VCM is set by the internal circuit to mid-supply. RT along with the input impedance of the amplifier circuit provides input termination, which is also referenced to VCM. Note RS and RT are added to the alternate input from the signal input to balance the amplifier. Alternately, one resistor can be used equal to the combined value RG+ RS||RT on this input. This is also true of the circuits shown in Figure 84 and Figure 85. 22 RF Figure 83. THS4509 DC Coupled Single-Supply with Input Biased to VCM In Figure 84 the source is referenced to ground and so is the input termination resistor. RPU is added to the circuit to avoid violating the VICR of the op amp. The proper value of resistor to add can be calculated from Equation 3: R PU = Figure 82.

To set to mid-supply, make the value of RPU = RG+ RS||RT. Table 3 is a modification of Table 1 to add the proper values with RPU assuming a 50 Ω source impedance and setting the input and output common-mode voltage to mid-supply. There are two drawbacks to this configuration. One is it requires additional current from the power supply. Using the values shown for a gain of 10 dB requires 37 mA more current with 5 V supply, and 22 mA more current with 3 V supply. The other drawback is this configuration also increases the noise gain of the circuit. In the 10 dB gain case, noise gain increases by a factor of 1.5. Table 3.

THS4509 DC Coupled Single-Supply with RPU Used to Set VIC Figure 85 shows AC coupling to the source. Using capacitors in series with the termination resistors allows the amplifier to self-bias both input and output to mid-supply. C RS V Signal RG RT is inserted in series with the input to reduce harmonics and noise from the signal source. Input termination is accomplished via the 69.8-Ω resistor and 0.22-µF capacitor to ground in conjunction with the input impedance of the amplifier circuit. A 0.22-µF capacitor and 49.9-Ω resistor is inserted to ground across the 69.8-Ω resistor and 0.22-µF capacitor on the alternate input to balance the circuit. Gain is a function of the source impedance, termination, and 348-Ω feedback resistor. Refer to Table 3 for component values to set proper 50-Ω termination for other common gains. A split power supply of +4V and -1V is used to set the input and output common-mode voltages to approximately mid-supply while setting the input common-mode of the ADS5500 to the recommended +1.55V. This maintains maximum headroom on the internal transistors of the THS4509 to insure optimum performance.

THS4509 AC Coupled Single-Supply 85 80 THS4509 + ADS5500 Combined Performance The THS4509 is designed to be a high performance drive amplifier for high performance data converters like the ADS5500 14-bit 125-MSPS ADC. Figure 86 shows a circuit combining the two devices, and Figure 87 shows the combined SNR and SFDR performance versus frequency with –1 dBFS input signal level sampling at 125 MSPS. The THS4509 amplifier circuit provides 10 dB of gain, converts the single-ended input to differential, and sets the proper input common-mode voltage to the ADS5500. The 100-Ω resistors and 2.7-pF capacitor between the THS4509 outputs and ADS5500 inputs along with the input capacitance of the ADS5500 limit the bandwidth of the signal to 115 MHz (–3 dB).

As before, the THS4509 amplifier provides 10 dB of gain, converts the single-ended input to differential, and sets the proper input common-mode voltage to the ADS5424. Input termination and circuit testing is the same as described above for the THS4509 + ADS5500 circuit. The 225-Ω resistors and 2.7-pF capacitor between the THS4509 outputs and ADS5424 inputs (along with the input capacitance of the ADC) limit the bandwidth of the signal to about 100MHz (-3dB). Since the ADS5424s recommended input common-mode voltage is 2.4 V, the THS4509 is operated from a single power supply input with VS+ = 5 V and VS– = 0 V (ground). 24 85 80 SNR (dBFS) 75 70 10 20 30 40 50 Input Frequency - MHz 60 70 Figure 90.

General guidelines are: 1. Signal routing should be direct and as short as possible into and out of the opamp circuit. 2. The feedback path should be short and direct avoiding vias. 3. Ground or power planes should be removed from directly under the amplifier’s input and output pins. 4. An output resistor is recommended on each output, as near to the output pin as possible. 5. Two 10-µF and two 0.1-µF power-supply decoupling capacitors should be placed as near to the power-supply pins as possible. 6. Two 0.1-µF capacitors should be placed between the CM input pins and ground. This limits noise coupled into the pins. One each should be placed to ground near pin 4 and pin 9. 7. It is recommended to split the ground pane on layer 2 (L2) as shown below and to use a solid ground on layer 3 (L3). A single-point connection should be used between each split section on L2 and L3. 8. A single-point connection to ground on L2 is recommended for the input termination resistors R1 and R2. This should be applied to the input gain resistors if termination is not used. 9.
