LTC6400-26

1.9GHz Low Noise,

Low Distortion Differential

ADC Driver for DC-300MHz

FEATURES

■

DESCRIPTION

The LTC

®

6400-26 is a high-speed differential ampliﬁer

targeted at processing signals from DC to 300MHz. The

part has been speciﬁcally designed to drive 12-, 14- and

16-bit ADCs with low noise and low distortion, but can also

be used as a general-purpose broadband gain block.

The LTC6400-26 is easy to use, with minimal support

circuitry required. The output common mode voltage is

set using an external pin, independent of the inputs, which

eliminates the need of transformers or AC-coupling ca-

pacitors in many applications. The gain is internally ﬁxed

at 26dB (20V/V).

The LTC6400-26 saves space and power compared to

alternative solutions using IF gain blocks and transform-

ers. The LTC6400-26 is packaged in a compact 16-lead

3mm

×

3mm QFN package and operates over the –40°C

to 85°C temperature range.

In addition to the LTC6400 family of ampliﬁers, a lower power LTC6401 family is available. The LTC6401 is pin compatible to the LTC6400, and has the

same low noise performance. The lower power consumption of the LTC6401 comes at the expense of slightly higher non-linearity, especially at input

frequencies above 140MHz. Please refer to the separate LTC6401 data sheets for complete details. Other gain versions from 8dB to 14dB will follow.

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:

Input pins (+IN, –IN) are protected by steering diodes to either

supply. If the inputs go beyond either supply rail, the input current should

be limited to less than 10mA.

Note 3:

The LTC6400C is guaranteed functional over the operating

temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.

Note 4:

The LTC6400C is guaranteed to meet speciﬁed performance from

0°C to 70°C. It 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 LTC6400I is guaranteed to meet speciﬁed performance

from –40°C to 85°C.

Note 5:

Input and output baluns used. See Test Circuit A.

Note 6:

Measured using Test Circuit B. R

L

= 87.5Ω per output.

Note 7:

Since the LTC6400-26 is a feedback ampliﬁer with low output

impedance, a resistive load is not required when driving an AD converter.

Therefore, typical output power is very small. In order to compare the

LTC6400-26 with ampliﬁers that require 50Ω output load, the LTC6400-26

output voltage swing driving a given R

L

is converted to OIP

3

and P

1dB

as

if it were driving a 50Ω load. Using this modiﬁed convention, 2V

P-P

is by

deﬁnition equal to 10dBm, regardless of actual R

L

.
