GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9630 is a monolithic buffer amplifier that utilizes a
patented, innovative, closed-loop design technique to achieve
exceptional gain accuracy, wide bandwidth, and low distortion.
Slew rate limiting has been overcome as indicated by the
1200 V/µs slew rate; this improvement allows the user greater
flexibility in wideband and pulse applications. The second harmonic distortion terms for an analog input tone of 4.3 MHz
and 20 MHz are –80 dBc and –66 dBc, respectively. Clearly,
the AD9630 establishes a new standard by combining outstanding dc and dynamic performance in one part.

WITH OPTIONAL POWER SUPPLY PINS DISCONNECTED
INTERNAL TO THE PACKAGE.
The large signal bandwidth, low distortion over frequency, and
drive capabilities of the AD9630 make the buffer an ideal flash
ADC driver. The AD9630 provides better signal fidelity than
many of the flash ADCs that it has been designed to drive.
Other applications that require increased current drive at unity
voltage gain (such as cable driving) benefit from the AD9630’s
performance.
The AD9630 is available in plastic DIP (N) and SOIC (R).

Absolute maximum ratings are limiting values to be applied individually, and
beyond which the serviceability of the circuit may be impaired. Functional
operability is not necessarily implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for an extended period of time may affect device reliability.

Output is short-circuit protected to ground, but not to supplies. Prolonged short

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD9630 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9630 is a wide-bandwidth, closed-loop, unity-gain
buffer that makes use of a new voltage-feedback architecture.
This architecture brings together wide bandwidth and high slew
rate along with exceptional dc linearity. Most previous widebandwidth buffers achieved their bandwidth by utilizing an
open-loop topology which sacrificed both dc linearity and frequency distortion when driven into low load impedances. The
design’s high loop correction factor radically improves dc linearity and distortion characteristics without diminishing
bandwidth. This, in combination with high slew rate, results in
exceptionally low distortion over a wide frequency range.
WARNING!
ESD SENSITIVE DEVICE
Parasitic or load capacitance (>7 pF) connected directly to the
AD9630 output will result in frequency peaking. A small series
resistor (RS) connected between the buffer output and capacitive load will negate this effect. Figure 1 shows the optimal value
of RS as a function of CL to obtain the flattest frequency response. Figure 2 illustrates frequency response for various
capacitive loads utilizing the recommended RS.

RSERIES – V
The AD9630 is an excellent choice to drive high speed and high
resolution analog-to-digital converters. Its output stage is designed to drive high speed flash converters with minimal or no
series resistance. A current booster built into the output driver
helps to maintain low distortion.

All unused pins (except the optional power supply pins) should
be connected to ground to reduce pin-to-pin capacitive coupling
and prevent external RF interference. If the source and drive
electronics require “remote” operation (> 1 inch from the
AD9630), the PC board line impedances should be matched
with the buffer input and output resistances. Basic microstrip
techniques should be observed. RIN and RS should be connected
as close to the AD9630 as possible.

With only minimal pulse overshoot and ringing, the AD9630
can drive terminated cables directly without the use of an output
termination resistor (RS). Termination resistors (RS and R IN)
can be either standard carbon composition or microwave type.
For matching characteristic impedances, precision microwave
resistors of 1% or better tolerance are preferred.

Figure 2. Frequency Response vs. C L
with Recommended RS
In pulse mode applications, with RS equal to approximately
12 Ω, capacitive loads of up to 50 pF can be driven with minimal settling time degradation.
The AD9630 should be soldered directly to the PC board with
as little vertical clearance as possible. The use of zero insertion
sockets is strongly discouraged because of the high effective pin
inductances. Use of this type socket will result in peaking and
possibly induce oscillation.
The output stage has short circuit protection to ground. The
output driver will shut down if more than approximately
130 mA of instantaneous sink or source current is reached. This
level of current ensures that output clipping will not result when
driving heavy capacitive loads during high slew conditions,
although average load currents above 70 mA may reduce device
reliability.

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
Due to the high frequency operation of the AD9630 attention to
board layout is necessary to achieve optimum dynamic performance. A two ounce copper ground plane on the top side of the
board is recommended; it should cover as much of the board as
possible with appropriate openings for supply decoupling capacitors as well as for load and source termination resistors, (see
Figure 3).

Optimum settling time and ac performance results will be
achieved with surface mount 0.1 µF supply decoupling ceramic
chip capacitors mounted within 50 mils of the corresponding
device pins with the other side soldered directly to the ground
plane. For best high resolution (<0.02%) settling times, the optional power supply pins should be decoupled as shown above.
If the optional power supply pins are not used, they should be
left open.

**SEE FIGURE 1
Figure 3. AD9630 Application Circuit
If surface mount capacitors cannot be used, radial lead ceramic
capacitors with leads less than 30 mils long are recommended.
Low frequency power supply decoupling is necessary and can be
accomplished with 4.7 µF tantalum capacitors mounted within
0.5 inches of the supply pins. Due to the series inductance of
these capacitors interacting with the 0.1 µF capacitors and
power supply leads, high frequency oscillations might appear on
