The LTC®6605-14 contains two independent, fully differential amplifiers configured as matched 2nd order 14MHz
lowpass filters. The f–3dB of the filters is adjustable in the
range of 12.4MHz to 20MHz and 25MHz.
The internal op amps are fully differential, feature very
low noise and distortion, and are compatible with 16-bit
dynamic range systems. The inputs can accept singleended or differential signals. An input pin is provided
for each amplifier to set the common mode level of the
differential outputs.
Internal laser-trimmed resistors and capacitors determine
a precise, very well matched (in gain and phase) 14MHz
2nd order filter response. A single optional external resistor per channel can tailor the frequency response for
each amplifier.
Three-state BIAS pins determine each amplifier’s power
consumption, allowing a choice between shutdown, medium power or full power.

The LTC6605-14 is available in a compact 6mm × 3mm
22-pin leadless DFN package and operates over a –40°C
to 85°C temperature range.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All pins are protected by steering diodes to either supply. If any
pin is driven beyond the LTC6605-14’s supply voltage, the excess input
current (current in excess of what it takes to drive that pin to the supply
rail) should be limited to less than 10mA.
Note 3: A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the Absolute Maximum Rating when the output is shorted
indefinitely. Long-term application of output currents in excess of the
Absolute Maximum Ratings may impair the life of the device.
Note 4: Both the LTC6605C and the LTC6605I are guaranteed functional
over the operating temperature range –40°C to 85°C.
Note 5: The LTC6605C is guaranteed to meet specified performance
from 0°C to 70°C. The LTC6605C is designed, characterized and
expected to meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C, but is
not tested or QA sampled at these temperatures. The LTC6605I is
guaranteed to meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C.
Note 6: Output referred voltage offset is a function of gain. To determine
output referred voltage offset, or output voltage offset drift, multiply VOS
by the noise gain (1 + GAIN). See Figure 3.
Note 7: Input bias current is defined as the average of the currents
flowing into the noninverting and inverting inputs of the internal amplifier
and is calculated from measurements made at the pins of the IC. Input
offset current is defined as the difference of the currents flowing into
the noninverting and inverting inputs of the internal amplifier and is
calculated from measurements made at the pins of the IC.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 8: See the Applications Information section for a detailed
discussion of input and output common mode range. Input common
mode range is tested by measuring the differential DC gain with VINCM
= mid-supply, and again with VINCM at the input common mode range
limits listed in the Electrical Characteristics table, with ΔV IN = ±0.25,
verifying that the differential gain has not deviated from the mid-supply
common mode input case by more than 0.5%, and that the common
mode offset (VOSCM) has not deviated from the mid-supply common
mode offset by more than ±10mV.
Output common mode range is tested by measuring the differential DC
gain with VOCM = mid-supply, and again with voltage set on the VOCM pin
at the output common range limits listed in the Electrical Characteristics
table, verifying that the differential gain has not deviated from the
mid-supply common mode input case by more than 0.5%, and that the
common mode offset (VOSCM) has not deviated by more than ±10mV
from the mid-supply case.
Note 9: CMRR is defined as the ratio of the change in the input common
mode voltage at the internal amplifier inputs to the change in differential
input referred voltage offset (VOS).
Note 10: Power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is defined as the ratio of
the change in supply voltage to the change in differential input referred
voltage offset (VOS).

LTC6605-14
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Functional Description
The LTC6605-14 is designed to make the implementation
of high frequency fully differential filtering functions very
easy. Two very low noise amplifiers are surrounded by
precision matched resistors and precision matched capacitors enabling various filter functions to be implemented by
hard wiring pins. The amplifiers are wide band, low noise
and low distortion fully differential amplifiers with accurate
output phase balancing. They are optimized for driving
low voltage, single-supply, differential input analog-todigital converters (ADCs). The LTC6605-14 operates with
a supply voltage as low as 2.7V and accepts inputs up to
325mV below the V– power rail, which makes it ideal for
converting ground referenced, single-ended signals into
differential signals that are referenced to the user-supplied
common mode voltage. This is ideal for driving low voltage, single-supply, differential input ADCs. The balanced
differential nature of the amplifier and matched surrounding components provide even-order harmonic distortion
cancellation, and low susceptibility to common mode
noise (like power supply noise). The LTC6605-14 can be
operated with a single-ended input and differential output,
or with a differential input and differential output.
The outputs of the LTC6605-14 can swing rail-to-rail.
They can source or sink a transient 70mA of current. Load
capacitances should be decoupled with at least 25Ω of
series resistance from each output.
Filter Frequency Response and Gain Adjustment
Figure 3 shows the filter architecture. The Laplace transfer
function can be expressed in the form of the following
generalized equation for a 2nd order lowpass filter:

,

with GAIN, fO and Q as given in Figure 3.
Note that GAIN and Q of the filter are based on component
ratios, which both match and track extremely well over
temperature. The corner frequency fO of the filter is a
function of an RC product. This RC product is trimmed to
±1% and is not expected to drift by more than ±1% from
nominal over the entire temperature range –40°C to 85°C.
As a result, fully differential filters with tight magnitude,
phase tolerance and repeatability are achieved.
Various values for resistors R1 and R4 can be formed
by pin-strapping the internal 100Ω and 200Ω resistors, and optionally by including one or more external
resistors. Note that non-zero source resistance should be
combined with, and included in, R1.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Setting the passband gain (GAIN = R2/R1) only requires
choosing a value for R1, since R2 is a fixed internal 200Ω.
Therefore, the following three gains can be easily configured
without external components:
Figure 4 shows three filter configurations with an
f–3dB = 12.3MHz, without any external components. These
filters have a Q = 0.57, which is an almost ideal Bessel
characteristic with linear phase.
Table 1. Configuring the Passband Gain Without External
Components
Figure 5 shows filter configurations that use some external
resistors, and are tailored for a very flat passband.

INPUT PINS TO USE
Many other configurations are possible by using the equations in Figure 3. For example, external resistors can be
added to modify the value of R1 to configure GAIN ≠ 1. For
an even more flexible filter IC with similar performance,
consider the LTC6601.
BIAS Pin
The resonant frequency, fO , is independent of R1, and
therefore independent of the gain. For any LTC6605-14 filter
configuration that conforms to Figure 3, the fO is fixed at
16.1MHz. The f–3dB frequency depends on the combination of fO and Q. For any specific gain, Q is adjusted by
the selection of R4.
Setting the f–3dB Frequency
Using an external resistor (REXT), the f–3dB frequency is adjustable in the range of 12.4MHz to 20.0MHz (see Figure 3).
The minimum f–3dB is set for REXT equal to 0Ω and the
maximum f–3dB is arbitrarily set for a maximum passband
gain peak less than 1dB.

Each channel of the LTC6605-14 has a BIAS pin whose
function is to tailor both performance and power. The BIAS
pin can be modeled as a voltage source whose potential
is 1.15V above the V– supply and that has a Thevenin
equivalent resistance of 150k. This three-state pin has fixed
logic levels relative to V– (see the Electrical Characteristics
table), and can be driven by any external source that can
drive the BIAS pin’s equivalent input impedance.
If the BIAS pin is tied to the positive supply, the part is
in a fully active state configured for highest performance
(lowest noise and lowest distortion).
If the BIAS pin is floated (left unconnected), the part is in
a fully active state, but with amplifier currents reduced and
performance scaled back to preserve power consumption.
Care should be taken to limit external leakage currents
to this pin to under 1μA to avoid putting the part in an
unexpected state.
If the BIAS pin is tied to the most negative supply (V–),
the part is in a low power shutdown mode with amplifier
outputs disabled. In shutdown, all internal biasing current
sources are shut off, and the output pins each appear as
open collectors with a non-linear capacitor in parallel and
steering diodes to either supply. Because of the non-linear
capacitance, the outputs can still sink and source small
amounts of transient current if exposed to significant
voltage transients. Using this function to wire-OR outputs
together is not recommended.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Input Impedance
Calculating the low frequency input impedance depends
on how the inputs are driven.
Figure 6 shows a simplified low frequency equivalent circuit. For balanced input sources (VINP = –VINM), the low
frequency input impedance is given by the equation:
RINP = RINM = R1
Therefore, the differential input impedance is simply:

the ESD protection diodes on the input pins, neither input
should swing further than 325mV below the V– power
rail. Therefore, the input common mode voltage should
be constrained to:

VINCM 1+ 2
R2 R1 • V + 1.4V VOCM
R2 V 325mV +
(
)
The specifications in the Electrical Characteristics table are
a special case of the general equation above. For a single
3V power supply, (V+ = 3V, V – = 0V) with VOCM = 1.5V,
ΔVINDIFF = ±0.25V and R1 = R2, the valid input common
mode range is:
–200mV ≤ VINCM ≤ 1.7V
Likewise, for a single 5V power supply, (V+ = 5V, V – = 0V)
with VOCM = 2.5V, ΔVINDIFF = ±0.25V and R1 = R2, the valid
input common mode range is:
660514 F06
Figure 6. Input Impedance
For single-ended inputs (VINM = 0), the input impedance
increases over the balanced differential case due to the
fact that the summing node (at the junction of R1, R2
and R3) moves in phase with VINP to bootstrap the input
impedance. Referring to Figure 6 with VINM = 0, the input
impedance looking into either input is:
R1
RINP = RINM
1 R2 1 • 2 R1+ R2 Input Common Mode Voltage Range
The input common mode voltage is defined as the average
of the two inputs into resistor R1:
VINCM =
VINP + VINM
2
The input common mode range is a function of the filter
configuration (GAIN), VINDIFF and the VOCM potential.
Referring to Figure 6, the summing junction where R1, R2
and R3 merge together should not swing within 1.4V of
the V+ power supply. Additionally, to avoid forward biasing
–200mV ≤ VINCM ≤ 4.7V
Output Common Mode and VOCM Pin
The output common mode voltage is defined as the average of the two outputs:
VOUTCM = VOCM =
VOUT + + VOUT −
2
As the equation shows, the output common mode voltage
is independent of the input common mode voltage, and
is instead determined by the voltage on the VOCM pin, by
means of an internal feedback loop.
If the VOCM pin is left open, an internal resistor divider
develops a potential halfway between the V+ and V– voltages. The VOCM pin can be overdriven to another voltage
if desired. For example, when driving an ADC, if the ADC
makes a reference available for setting the common mode
voltage, it can be directly tied to the VOCM pin, as long as the
ADC is capable of driving the input impedance presented by
the VOCM pin as listed in the Electrical Characteristics table
(RVOCM). The Electrical Characteristics table also specifies
the valid range that can be applied to the VOCM pin.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Noise
When comparing the LTC6605-14’s noise to that of
other amplifiers, be sure to compare similar specifications. Standalone op amps often specify noise referred to the inputs of the op amp. The LTC6605-14’s
internal op amp has input referred voltage noise of
only 2.1nV/√Hz. In addition to the noise generated by
the amplifier, the surrounding feedback resistors also
contribute noise. A noise model is shown in Figure 7a.
The output spot noise generated by both the amplifier
and the feedback components is given in Figure 7b.
Substituting the equation for Johnson noise of a resistor
(e2nR = 4kTR) into the equation in Figure 7b and simplifying gives the result shown in Figure 7c.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Board Layout and Bypass Capacitors
For single-supply applications it is recommended that a
high quality X5R or X7R, 0.1μF bypass capacitor be placed
directly between V+ and the adjacent V– pin. The V– pins,
including the Exposed Pad, should be tied directly to a
low impedance ground plane with minimal routing.
For split power supplies, it is recommended that additional high quality X5R or X7R, 0.1μF capacitors be used
to bypass pin V+ to ground and V– to ground, again with
minimal routing.
For driving heavy differential loads (< 200Ω), additional
bypass capacitance may be needed between V+ and V– for
optimal performance. Keep in mind that small geometry
(e.g., 0603) surface mount ceramic capacitors have a much
higher self-resonant frequency than do leaded capacitors,
and perform best in high speed applications.
The VOCM pins should be bypassed to ground with a high
quality ceramic capacitor (at least 0.01μF). In split-supply applications, the VOCM pin can be either bypassed to
ground or directly hard wired to ground.
Stray parasitic capacitances to any unused input pins
should be kept to a minimum to prevent deviations from the
ideal frequency response. The best approach is to remove
the solder pads for the unused component pins and strip
away any ground plane underneath. Floating unused pins
does not reduce the reliability of the part.
At the output, always keep in mind the differential nature
of the LTC6605-14, because it is important that the load
impedances seen by both outputs (stray or intended) be
as balanced and symmetric as possible. This will help preserve the balanced operation that minimizes the generation
of even-order harmonics and maximizes the rejection of
common mode signals and noise.
Driving ADCs
The LTC6605-14’s rail-to-rail differential output and adjustable output common mode voltage make it ideal for
interfacing to differential input ADCs. These ADCs are
typically supplied from a single-supply voltage which can
be as low as 3V (2.7V minimum), and have an optimal common mode input range near mid-supply. The LTC6605-14
makes interfacing to these ADCs easy, by providing
antialiasing, single-ended to differential conversion and
common mode level shifting.
The sampling process of ADCs creates a transient that is
caused by the switching in of the ADC sampling capacitor. This momentarily “shorts” the output of the amplifier
as charge is transferred between amplifier and sampling
capacitor. The amplifier must recover and settle from this
660514f

LTC6605-14
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
load transient before the acquisition period has ended, for
a valid representation of the input signal. The LTC6605-14
will settle quickly from these periodic load impulses. The
RC network between the outputs of the driver decouples
the sampling transient of the ADC (see Figure 8). The
capacitance serves to provide the bulk of the charge
during the sampling process, while the two resistors at
the outputs of the LTC6605-14 are used to dampen and
attenuate any charge injected by the ADC. The RC filter
gives the additional benefit of band limiting broadband
output noise. The selection of the RC time constant is trial
and error for a given ADC, but the following guidelines are
recommended. Choose an RC time constant that is smaller
than the reciprocal of the filter cutoff frequency configured
1/2 LTC6605-14
by the LTC6605-14. Time constants on the order of 2ns
do a good job of filtering broadband noise. Longer time
constants improve SNR at the expense of settling time.
The resistors in the decoupling network should be at least
25Ω. Too large of a resistor will leave insufficient settling
time. Too small of a resistor will not properly dampen the
load transient of the sampling process, prolonging the
time required for settling. In 16-bit applications, this will
typically require a minimum of eleven RC time constants.
The 10Ω resistors at the inputs to the ADC minimize the
sampling transients that charge the RC filter capacitors.
For lowest distortion, choose capacitors with low dielectric
absorption, such as a C0G multilayer ceramic capacitor.
