The THS4509 device is a wideband, fully-differential
op amp designed for 5-V data acquisition systems. It
has a low noise at 1.9 nV/√Hz, and 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 high at 6600 V/μs, and with settling time of 2 ns to
1% (2-V step), it is ideal for pulsed applications. It is
designed for a minimum gain of 6 dB, but is
optimized for gains of 10 dB.

Fully-Differential Architecture
Centered Input Common-Mode Range
Output Common-Mode Control
Minimum Gain of 2 V/V (6 dB)
Bandwidth: 1900 MHz
Slew Rate: 6600 V/μs
1% Settling Time: 2 ns
HD2: –75 dBc at 100 MHz
HD3: –80 dBc at 100 MHz
OIP3: 37 dBm at 70 MHz
Input Voltage Noise: 1.9 nV/√Hz (f > 10 MHz)
Power-Supply Voltage: 3 V to 5 V
Power-Supply Current: 37.7 mA
Power-Down Current: 0.65 mA
To allow for DC coupling to analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs), its unique output common-mode
control circuit maintains the output common-mode
voltage within 3-mV offset (typical) from the set
voltage, when set within 0.5-V of midsupply, with less
than 4-mV differential offset voltage. The commonmode set point is set to midsupply by internal
circuitry, which may be overdriven from an external
source.
The input and output are optimized for best
performance with the common-mode voltages set to
midsupply. Along with high performance at low
power-supply voltage, this design makes it ideal for
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.

Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage. Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may
degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond
those specified is not implied.
The THS4509 incorporates a (QFN) exposed thermal pad on the underside of the chip. This pad acts as a heatsink and must be
connected to a thermally dissipative plane for proper power dissipation. Failure to do so may result in exceeding the maximum junction
temperature which could permanently damage the device. See TI technical briefs SLMA002 and SLMA004 for more information about
using the QFN thermally-enhanced package.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The THS4509 is a fully differential amplifier with integrated common-mode control designed to provide low
distortion amplification to wide bandwidth differential signals. The common-mode feedback circuit sets the output
common-mode voltage independent of the input common mode, as well as forcing the V+ and V − outputs to be
equal in magnitude and opposite in phase, even when only one of the inputs is driven as in single to differential
conversion.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Test Circuits
The THS4509 is tested with the following test circuits built on the evaluation module (EVM). For simplicity,
power-supply decoupling is not shown—see Layout for recommendations. Depending on the test conditions,
component values are changed per Table 3 and Table 4, or as otherwise noted. The signal generators used are
AC-coupled, 50-Ω sources, and a 0.22-μF capacitor and 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 Typical Applications with no impact
on performance.

Note the total load includes 50-Ω termination by the test equipment. 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 output is attenuated.
The column Atten in Table 4 shows the attenuation expected from the resistor divider. When using a transformer
at the output as shown in Figure 77, the signal sees slightly more loss, and these numbers are approximate.

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.
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.
8.3.1.2 Distortion and 1-dB Compression
The circuit shown in Figure 77 is used to measure harmonic distortion, intermodulation distortion, and 1-db

Figure 77. Distortion Test Circuit
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 1 MHz.
The 1-dB compression point is measured with a spectrum analyzer with 50-Ω double termination or 100-Ω
termination; see Table 4. 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.
8.3.1.3 S-Parameter, Slew Rate, Transient Response, Settling Time, Output Impedance, Overdrive,
Output Voltage, Turnon, and Turnoff Time
The circuit shown in Figure 78 is used to measure s-parameters, slew rate, transient response, settling time,
output impedance, overdrive recovery, output voltage swing, turnon, and turnoff 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 output.
Because S21 is measured single-ended at the load with 50-Ω double termination, add 12 dB to refer to the
amplifier output as a differential signal.

The circuit shown in Figure 79 is used to measure the frequency response and input impedance of the CM input.
Frequency response is measured single-ended at VOUT+ or VOUT– with the input injected at VIN, RCM = 0 Ω, and
RCMT = 49.9 Ω. The input impedance is measured with RCM = 49.9 Ω with RCMT = open, and calculated by
measuring the voltage drop across RCM to determine the input current.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
The THS4509 has one main functional mode with two variants. The amplifier functions as either a differential to
differential or a single-ended to differential amplifier. In either of these modes the amplifier output operating point
(common-mode voltage) is set independently by the CM pin.
The THS4509 also features a power-down state for reduced power consumption when the amplifier is not
required to be operational.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The THS4509 is a fully-configurable, differential operational amplifier. The closed-loop gain is set by external
resistors. Many performance metrics are set by the matching of these external resistors, so 0.1% or better
tolerance resistors are recommended.
The amplifier output common-mode voltage is set by the CM pin. From the CM pin to the amplifier outputs there
is a fixed gain of 1 V/V so that the amplifier output voltage is identical to the voltage applied to the CM pin. This
pin must be driven by a low impedance reference and must also be bypassed to ground using a 0.1-µF ceramic,
low ESR resistor. The ideal common-mode voltage is equal to the voltage that is midway between the positive
and negative supply voltages.
The THS4509 can be operated from either single or split power supplies with a range of 3 V to 5 V of total supply
voltage. When selecting a power supply voltage, make sure to provide adequate margin for input and output
voltage levels. In many cases, split supplies are the best option. It is not necessary to have power supply
voltages symmetrical around ground. For example, –1 V and +4 V is a valid power supply configuration.
9.2 Typical Applications
The following circuits show application information for the THS4509. For simplicity, power-supply decoupling
capacitors are not shown in these diagrams. See the Layout section for recommendations. For more detail on the
use and operation of fully-differential op amps refer to the application report, Fully-Differential Amplifiers
(SLOA054).
9.2.1 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 81 (CM input not shown). The gain of the
circuit is set by RF divided by RG.
Depending on the source and load, input and output termination can be accomplished by adding RIT and RO.

Typical Applications (continued)
The main design requirements for the THS4509 are the input common mode, the output swing voltage. Other
design requirements are signal linearity and accuracy. With flexible supply voltage ranges and externally
configurable resistors the THS4509 can be configured to meet many design requirements.
Table 5 lists the design parameters of this example.

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The first parameter is gain. Gain is set by external resistors as shown in Table 3. With a gain of 6 dB, the
appropriate resistor values are 348 Ω for RF and 165 Ω for RG and 61.9 Ω for the termination resistor. These
resistor values are for a 50-Ω source. The desired output swing of 2 Vpp and distortion of –75 dBc means that a
supply voltage of 5 V is required. Further design details are covered in this section.
9.2.1.2.1 Input Common-Mode Voltage Range
The input common-mode 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 determines 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
æ
RG
RF
÷
÷ + ç VIN- ´
VIC = çç VOUT + ´
÷
ç
R G + R F ÷ø
R G + RF 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.
9.2.1.2.2 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 (typical) from the set voltage, when set
within 0.5 V of midsupply, with less than 4-mV differential offset voltage. If left unconnected, the common-mode
set point is set to midsupply by internal circuitry, which may be overdriven 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 performance, 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:

9.2.1.2.3 Single-Supply Operation (3 V to 5 V)
To facilitate testing with common lab equipment, the THS4509 EVM allows split-supply operation, and the
characterization data presented in this data sheet were 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 midsupply 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 midsupply. 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.

There are two drawbacks to this configuration. One is that 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 that 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.
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 midsupply.

9.2.1.2.4 THS4509 and 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). For testing, a signal generator is used for the signal source. The generator is
an ac-coupled 50-Ω source. A band-pass filter is inserted in series with the input to reduce harmonics and noise
from the signal source. Input termination is accomplished through 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 6 for
component values to set proper 50-Ω termination for other common gains. A split power supply of +4 V and –1 V
is used to set the input and output common-mode voltages to approximately midsupply while setting the input
common-mode of the ADS5500 to the recommended +1.55 V. This configuration maintains maximum headroom
on the internal transistors of the THS4509 to insure optimum performance.

9.2.1.2.5 THS4509 and ADS5424 Combined Performance
Figure 89 shows the THS4509 driving the ADS5424 ADC, and Figure 90 shows the combined SNR and SFDR
performance versus frequency with –1-dBFS input signal level and sampling at 80 MSPS.
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 and 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 (–3 dB).
Because the ADS5424 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).

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The THS4509 can accommodate supply voltages from 3 V to 5 V, either single supply or split supply. Unless the
application calls for AC coupling and a very small signal the 5-V supply option must be chosen. In many cases,
split supplies are necessary because it is important to have the output common-mode voltage set very close to
the midsupply voltage. For example, when driving an ADC with an input common-mode voltage of 1 V the ideal
power supply voltage would be +3.5 V and –1.5 V.
Power supply decoupling capacitors must be placed within 2 mm of the amplifier power supply pins. These
capacitors must be very low ESR and must have a self resonant frequency above 200 mHz.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
It is recommended to follow the layout of the external components near the amplifier, ground plane construction,
and power routing of the EVM as closely as possible.
11.1.1 General Guidelines
1. Signal routing should be direct and as short as possible into and out of the op amp circuit.
2. The feedback path should be short and direct; avoid vias.
3. Ground or power planes should be removed from directly under the amplifier 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 must be placed as near to the power-supply
pins as possible.
6. Two 0.1-μF capacitors must be placed between the CM input pins and ground. This configuration limits noise
coupled into the pins. One each must be placed to ground near pin 4 and pin 9.
7. TI recommends splitting the ground panel on layer 2 (L2) as shown below and to use a solid ground on layer
3 (L3). A single-point connection must 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 configuration must be applied to the input gain resistors if termination is not used.
9. The THS4509 recommended PCB footprint is shown in Figure 92.
11.1.2 PowerPAD PCB Layout Considerations
Although there are many ways to properly heatsink the PowerPAD package, the following steps illustrate the
recommended approach:
1. Prepare the PCB with a top side etch pattern as shown in Figure 92. There must be etch for the leads as
well as etch for the thermal pad.
2. Place five holes in the area of the thermal pad. The holes must be 13 mils (0.013 in, 0.33 mm) in diameter.
Keep them small so that solder wicking through the holes is not a problem during reflow.
3. Additional vias may be placed anywhere along the thermal plane outside of the thermal pad area. They help
dissipate the heat generated by the IC. These additional vias may be larger than the 13-mil diameter vias
directly under the thermal pad. They can be larger because they are not in the thermal pad area to be
soldered, so that wicking is not a problem.
4. Connect all holes to the internal ground plane.
5. When connecting these holes to the ground plane, do not use the typical web or spoke via connection
methodology. Web connections have a high thermal resistance connection that is useful for slowing the heat
transfer during soldering operations. This resistance makes the soldering of vias that have plane connections
easier. In this application, however, low thermal resistance is desired for the most efficient heat transfer.
Therefore, the holes under the IC PowerPAD package should make the connection to the internal ground
plane, with a complete connection around the entire circumference of the plated-through hole.
6. The top-side solder mask must leave the terminals of the package and the thermal pad area with its five
holes exposed. The bottom-side solder mask should cover the five holes of the thermal pad area. This
configuration prevents solder from being pulled away from the thermal pad area during the reflow process.
7. Apply solder paste to the exposed thermal pad area and all of the IC terminals.
8. With these preparatory steps in place, the IC is simply placed in position and run through the solder reflow
operation as any standard surface-mount component. This process results in a part that is properly installed.

Figure 92. PowerPAD PCB Etch and Via Pattern
The next consideration is the package constraints. The two sources of heat within an amplifier are quiescent
power and output power. The designer must never forget about the quiescent heat generated within the device,
especially multi-amplifier devices. Because these devices have linear output stages (Class AB), most of the heat
dissipation is at low output voltages with high output currents.
The other key factor when dealing with power dissipation is how the devices are mounted on the PCB. The
PowerPAD devices are extremely useful for heat dissipation. But the device should always be soldered to a
copper plane to fully use the heat dissipation properties of the PowerPAD. The SOIC package, on the other
hand, is highly dependent on how it is mounted on the PCB. As more trace and copper area is placed around the
device, θJA decreases and the heat dissipation capability increases. For a single package, the sum of the RMS
output currents and voltages must be used to choose the proper package.

11.3 PowerPAD™ Design Considerations
The THS4509 is available in a thermally-enhanced PowerPAD family of packages. These packages are
constructed using a downset leadframe on which the die is mounted (see Figure 95a and Figure 95b). This
arrangement results in the lead frame being exposed as a thermal pad on the underside of the package (see
Figure 95c). Because this thermal pad has direct thermal contact with the die, excellent thermal performance can
be achieved by providing a good thermal path away from the thermal pad.

PowerPAD™ Design Considerations (continued)
NOTE
The THS4509 has no electrical connection between the PowerPAD and circuitry on the
die. Connecting the PowerPAD to any potential voltage between VS+ and VS– is
acceptable. It is most important that it be connected for maximum heat dissipation.
The PowerPAD package allows both assembly and thermal management in one manufacturing operation.
During the surface-mount solder operation (when the leads are being soldered), the thermal pad can also be
soldered to a copper area underneath the package. Through the use of thermal paths within this copper area,
heat can be conducted away from the package into either a ground plane or other heat dissipating device.
The PowerPAD package represents a breakthrough in combining the small area and ease of assembly of
surface-mount with the previously awkward mechanical methods of heatsinking.
