PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8350 series are high performance fully-differential
amplifiers useful in RF and IF circuits up to 1000 MHz. The
amplifier has excellent noise figure of 5.9 dB at 250 MHz. It
offers a high output third order intercept (OIP3) of +28 dBm
at 250 MHz. Gain versions of 15 dB and 20 dB are offered.
The amplifier can be operated down to 5 V with an OIP3 of
+28 dBm at 250 MHz and slightly reduced distortion performance. The wide bandwidth, high dynamic range and temperature
stability make this product ideal for the various RF and IF
frequencies required in cellular, CATV, broadband, instrumentation and other applications.
The AD8350 is designed to meet the demanding performance
requirements of communications transceiver applications. It
enables a high dynamic range differential signal chain, with
exceptional linearity and increased common-mode rejection.
The device can be used as a general purpose gain block, an
A-to-D driver, and high speed data interface driver, among
other functions. The AD8350 input can also be used as a singleended-to-differential converter.
The AD8350 is offered in an 8-lead single SOIC package and
μSOIC package. It operates from 5 V and 10 V power supplies,
drawing 28 mA typical. The AD8350 offers a power enable function for power-sensitive applications. The AD8350 is fabricated
using Analog Devices’ proprietary high speed complementary
bipolar process. The device is available in the industrial (–40°C to
+85°C) temperature range.

APPLICATIONS
Using the AD8350
Figure 1 shows the basic connections for operating the AD8350.
A single supply in the range 5 V to 10 V is required. The power
supply pin should be decoupled using a 0.1 μF capacitor. The
ENBL pin is tied to the positive supply or to 5 V (when VCC =
10 V) for normal operation and should be pulled to ground to
put the device in sleep mode. Both the inputs and the outputs
have dc bias levels at midsupply and should be ac-coupled.

Also shown in Figure 1 are the impedance balancing requirements,
either resistive or reactive, of the input and output. With an
input and output impedance of 200 Ω, the AD8350 should be
driven by a 200 Ω source and loaded by a 200 Ω impedance. A
reactive match can also be implemented.

a step-up matching network is required. A typical step-up network
is shown on the input of the AD8350 in Figure 3. For purely
resistive source and load impedances the resonant approach may
be used. The input and output impedance of the AD8350 can be
modeled as a real 200 Ω resistance for operating frequencies less
than 100 MHz. For signal frequencies exceeding 100 MHz, classical Smith Chart matching techniques should be invoked in order
to deal with the complex impedance relationships. Detailed S
parameter data measured differentially in a 200 Ω system can be
found in Tables II and III.

For the input matching network the source resistance is less
than the input resistance of the AD8350. The AD8350 has a
nominal 200 Ω input resistance from Pins 1 to 8. The reactance
of the ac-coupling capacitors, CAC, should be negligible if 100 nF
capacitors are used and the lowest signal frequency is greater
than 1 MHz. If the series reactance of the matching network
inductor is defined to be XS = 2 π f LS, and the shunt reactance
of the matching capacitor to be XP = (2 π f CP)–1, then:

Figure 2 shows how the AD8350 can be driven by a singleended source. The unused input should be ac-coupled to ground.
When driven single-endedly, there will be a slight imbalance in
the differential output voltages. This will cause an increase in
the second order harmonic distortion (at 50 MHz, with VCC =
10 V and VOUT = 1 V p-p, –59 dBc was measured for the second
harmonic on AD8350-15).

For a 70 MHz application with a 50 Ω source resistance, and
assuming the input impedance is 200 Ω, or RLOAD = RIN = 200 Ω,
then XP = 115.5 Ω and XS = 86.6 Ω, which results in the following component values:
In practical applications, the AD8350 will most likely be matched
using reactive matching components as shown in Figure 3.
Matching components can be calculated using a Smith Chart or
by using a resonant approach to determine the matching network
that results in a complex conjugate match. In either situation,
the circuit can be analyzed as a single-ended equivalent circuit
to ease calculations as shown in Figure 4.
CP = (2 π × 70 × 106 × 115.5)–1 = 19.7 pF and
LS = 86.6 × (2 π × 70 × 106)–1 = 197 nH

For the output matching network, if the output source resistance of the AD8350 is greater than the terminating load
resistance, a step-down network should be employed as shown
on the output of Figure 3. For a step-down matching network,
the series and parallel reactances are calculated as:
RS × RLOAD
where X P = RS ×

(2)
The same results could be found using a Smith Chart as shown
in Figure 7. In this example, a shunt capacitor and a series inductor
are used to match the 200 Ω source to a 50 Ω load. For a frequency of 10 MHz, the same capacitor and inductor values
previously found using the resonant approach will transform the
200 Ω source to match the 50 Ω load. At frequencies exceeding
100 MHz, the S parameters from Tables II and III should be
used to account for the complex impedance relationships.
For a 10 MHz application with the 200 Ω output source resistance
of the AD8350, RS = 200 Ω, and a 50 Ω load termination, RLOAD =
50 Ω, then XP = 115.5 Ω and X S = 86.6 Ω, which results in
the following component values:
CP = (2 π × 10 × 106 × 115.5)–1 = 138 pF and
LS = 86.6 × (2 π × 10 × 106)–1 = 1.38 μH
LOAD
The same results can be obtained using the plots in Figure 5
and Figure 6. Figure 5 shows the normalized shunt reactance
versus the normalized source resistance for a step-up matching
network, RS < RLOAD. By inspection, the appropriate reactance
can be found for a given value of RS/RLOAD. The series reactance
is then calculated using XS = RS RLOAD/XP. The same technique
can be used to design the step-down matching network using
Figure 6.

After determining the matching network for the single-ended
equivalent circuit, the matching elements need to be applied in a
differential manner. The series reactance needs to be split such
that the final network is balanced. In the previous examples, this
simply translates to splitting the series inductor into two equal
halves as shown in Figure 3.

The effective gain of the AD8350 can be reduced using a number of techniques. Obviously a matched attenuator network will
reduce the effective gain, but this requires the addition of a
separate component which can be prohibitive in size and cost.
The attenuator will also increase the effective noise figure resulting
in an SNR degradation. A simple voltage divider can be implemented using the combination of the driving impedance of the
previous stage and a shunt resistor across the inputs of the AD8350
as shown in Figure 8. This provides a compact solution but
suffers from an increased noise spectral density at the input
of the AD8350 due to the thermal noise contribution of the
shunt resistor. The input impedance can be dynamically altered
through the use of feedback resistors as shown in Figure 9. This
will result in a similar attenuation of the input signal by virtue
of the voltage divider established from the driving source impedance and the reduced input impedance of the AD8350. Yet
this technique does not significantly degrade the SNR with
the unnecessary increase in thermal noise that arises from a truly
resistive attenuator network.

The insertion loss and the resultant power gain for multiple
shunt resistor values is summarized in Table I. The source
resistance and input impedance need careful attention when
using Equation 1. The reactance of the input impedance of the
AD8350 and the ac-coupling capacitors need to be considered
before assuming they have negligible contribution. Figure 10
shows the effective power gain for multiple values of RSHUNT for

Figure 8 shows a typical implementation of the shunt divider
concept. The reduced input impedance that results from the
parallel combination of the shunt resistor and the input impedance
of the AD8350 adds attenuation to the input signal effectively
reducing the gain. For frequencies less than 100 MHz, the input
impedance of the AD8350 can be modeled as a real 200 Ω resistance (differential). Assuming the frequency is low enough to
ignore the shunt reactance of the input, and high enough such
that the reactance of moderately sized ac-coupling capacitors
can be considered negligible, the insertion loss, IL, due to the
shunt divider can be expressed as:

The gain can be adjusted dynamically by employing external
feedback resistors as shown in Figure 9. The effective attenuation is a result of the lowered input impedance as with the shunt
resistor method, yet there is no additional noise contribution at
the input of the device. It is necessary to use well-matched resistors
to minimize common-mode offset errors. Quality 1% tolerance
resistors should be used along with a symmetric board layout to
help guarantee balanced performance. The effective gain for multiple values of external feedback resistors is shown in Figure 11.

Driving Lighter Loads
20
It is not necessary to load the output of the AD8350 with a
200 Ω differential load. Often it is desirable to try to achieve a
complex conjugate match between the source and load in order
to minimize reflections and conserve power. But if the AD8350
is driving a voltage responding device, such as an ADC, it is no
longer necessary to maximize power transfer. The harmonic
distortion performance will actually improve when driving
loads greater than 200 Ω. The lighter load requires less current driving capability on the output stages of the AD8350
resulting in improved linearity. Figure 12 shows the improvement in second and third harmonic distortion for increasing
differential load resistance.
