GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADL5561 is a high performance differential amplifier optimized for RF and IF applications. The amplifier offers low noise of 2.1 nV/√Hz and excellent distortion performance over a wide frequency range, making it an ideal driver for high speed 8-bit to 16-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The ADL5561 provides three gain levels of 6 dB, 12 dB, and 15.5 dB through a pin-strappable configuration. For the single-ended input configuration, the gains are reduced to 5.6 dB, 11.1 dB, and 14.1 dB. Using an external series input resistor expands the amplifier gain flexibility and allows for any gain selection from 0 dB to 15.5 dB. The quiescent current of the ADL5561 is typically 40 mA and, when disabled, consumes less than 3 mA, offering excellent input-to-output isolation. The device is optimized for wideband, low distortion performance. These attributes, together with its adjustable gain capability, make this device the amplifier of choice for general-purpose IF and broadband applications where low distortion, noise, and power are critical. This device is optimized for the best combination of slew speed, bandwidth, and broadband distortion. These attributes allow it to drive a wide variety of ADCs and make it ideally suited for driving mixers, pin diode attenuators, SAW filters, and multielement discrete devices. Fabricated on the Analog Devices, Inc., high speed SiGe process, the ADL5561 is supplied in a compact 3 mm × 3 mm, 16-lead LFCSP package and operates over the temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.

ADL5561 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
BASIC STRUCTURE
The ADL5561 is a low noise, low power, fully differential amplifier/ ADC driver that uses a 3.3 V supply. It provides three gain options (6 dB, 12 dB, and 15.5 dB) without the need for external resistors and has wide bandwidths of 2.6 GHz for 6 dB, 2.3 GHz for 12 dB, and 2.1 GHz for 15.5 dB. Differential input impedance is 400 Ω for 6 dB, 200 Ω for 12 dB, and 133 Ω for 15.5 dB. It has a differential output impedance of 10 Ω and an output commonmode adjust voltage of 1.25 V to 1.85 V.

1/ R 2S
The amplifier is designed to provide high differential open-loop gain and an output common-mode circuit that enables the user to change the common-mode voltage from a VCOM pin. The amplifier is designed to provide superior low distortion at frequencies up to and beyond 300 MHz with low noise and low power consumption. The low distortion and noise are realized with a 3.3 V power supply at 40 mA. The ADL5561 is very flexible in terms of I/O coupling. It can be ac-coupled or dc-coupled at the inputs and/or the outputs within the specified input and output common-mode levels. The input of the device can be configured as single-ended or differential with similar distortion performance. Due to the internal connections between the inputs and outputs, keep the output common-mode voltage between 1.25 V and 1.85 V for the best distortion. For a dc-coupled input, the input common mode should be between 1 V and 2.3 V for the best distortion. The device has been characterized using 2 V p-p into 200 Ω. If the inputs are ac-coupled, the input and output common-mode voltages are set by VCC/2 when no external circuitry is used. The ADL5561 provides an output common-mode voltage set by VCOM, which allows driving an ADC directly without external components, such as a transformer or ac-coupling capacitors, provided that the VCOM of the amplifier is within the VCOM of the ADC. For dc-coupled requirements, the input VCM must be set by the VCOM pin in all three gain settings.

The ADL5561 is composed of a fully differential amplifier with on-chip feedback and feed-forward resistors. The two feedforward resistors on each input set this pin-strappable amplifier in three different gain configurations of 6 dB, 12 dB, and 15.5 dB.

ADL5561 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BASIC CONNECTIONS
Figure 31 shows the basic connections for operating the ADL5561. VCC should be 3.3 V with each supply pin decoupled with at least one low inductance surface-mount ceramic capacitor of 0.1 μF placed as close as possible to the device. The VCOM pin (Pin 9) should also be decoupled using a 0.1 μF capacitor. The gain of the part is determined by the pin-strappable input configuration. When Input A is applied to VIP1 and Input B is applied to VIN1, the gain is 6 dB (minimum gain; see Equation 1 and Equation 2). When Input A is applied to VIP2 and Input B is applied to VIN2, the gain is 12 dB (middle gain). When Input A is applied to VIP1 and VIP2 and Input B is applied to VIN1 and VIN2, the gain is 15.5 dB (maximum gain).

Pin 1 to Pin 4, Pin 10, and Pin 11 are biased at 1/2 VCC above ground and can be dc-coupled (if within the specified input and output common-mode voltages levels) or ac-coupled, as shown in Figure 31. To enable the ADL5561, the ENBL pin must be pulled high. Pulling the ENBL pin low puts the ADL5561 in sleep mode, reducing the current consumption to 3 mA at ambient.

INPUT AND OUTPUT INTERFACING
The ADL5561 can be configured as a differential input to differential output driver, as shown in Figure 32. The differential broadband input is provided by the ETC1-1-13 balun transformer, and the two 34.8 Ω resistors provide a 50 Ω input match for the three input impedances that change with the variable gain strapping. The input and output 0.1 μF capacitors isolate the VCC/2 bias from the source and balanced load. The load must be 200 Ω to provide the expected ac performance (see the Specifications section and the Typical Performance Characteristics section).

Single-Ended Input to Differential Output
The ADL5561 can also be configured in a single-ended input to differential output driver, as shown in Figure 34. In this configuration, the gain of the part is reduced due to the application of the signal to only one side of the amplifier. The strappable gain values are listed in Table 6 with the required terminations to match to a 50 Ω source using R1 and R2. Note that R1 must equal the parallel value of the source and R2. The input and output 0.1 μF capacitors isolate the VCC/2 bias from the source and the balanced load. The performance for this configuration is shown in Figure 11, Figure 14, and Figure 20.

GAIN ADJUSTMENT AND INTERFACING
The effective gain of the ADL5561 can be reduced using a number of techniques. A matched attenuator network can reduce the effective gain, but this requires the addition of a separate component that can be prohibitive in size and cost. Instead, a simple voltage divider can be implemented using the combination of an addition series resistor at the amplifier input and the input impedance of the ADL5561, as shown in Figure 36. A shunt resistor is used to match to the impedance of the previous stage.

ADC INTERFACING
The ADL5561 is a high output linearity amplifier that is optimized for ADC interfacing. There are several options available to the designer when using the ADL5561. Figure 37 shows a simplified wideband interface with the ADL5561 driving the AD9445. The AD9445 is a 14-bit, 125 MSPS ADC with a buffered wideband input. For optimum performance, the ADL5561 should be driven differentially using an input balun. Figure 37 uses a wideband 1:1 transmission line balun followed by two 34.8 Ω resistors in parallel with the three input impedances (which change with the gain selection of the ADL5561) to provide a 50 Ω differential input impedance. This provides a wideband match to a 50 Ω source. The ADL5561 is ac-coupled from the AD9445 to avoid commonmode dc loading. The 33 Ω series resistors help to improve the isolation between the ADL5561 and any switching currents present at the analog-to-digital sample-and-hold input circuitry. The AD9445 input presents a 2 kΩ differential load impedance and requires a 2 V p-p differential input swing to reach full scale (VREF = 1 V).

Figure 36. Gain Adjustment Using Series Resistor
Figure 36 shows a typical implementation of the divider concept that effectively reduces the gain by adding attenuation at the input. For frequencies less than 100 MHz, the input impedance of the ADL5561 can be modeled as a real 133 Ω, 200 Ω, or 400 Ω resistance (differential) for maximum, middle, and minimum gains, respectively. Assuming that the frequency is low enough to ignore the shunt reactance of the input and high enough so 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

ADL5561
This circuit provides variable gain, isolation, and source matching for the AD9445. Using this circuit with the ADL5561 in a gain of 6 dB, an SFDR performance of 87 dBc is achieved at 140 MHz and a −3 dB bandwidth of 760 MHz, as shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39.

The wideband frequency response is an advantage in broadband applications, such as predistortion receiver designs and instrumentation applications. However, by designing for a wide analog input frequency range, the cascaded SNR performance is somewhat degraded due to high frequency noise aliasing into the wanted Nyquist zone. An alternative narrow-band approach is presented in Figure 40. By designing a narrow band-pass antialiasing filter between the ADL5561 and the target ADC, the output noise of the ADL5561 outside of the intended Nyquist zone can be attenuated, helping to preserve the available SNR of the ADC. In general, the SNR improves several decibels when including a reasonable order antialiasing filter. In this example, a low loss 1:1 input transformer is used to match the ADL5561 balanced input to a 50 Ω unbalanced source, resulting in minimum insertion loss at the input. Figure 40 is optimized for driving some of the Analog Devices popular unbuffered ADCs, such as the AD9246, AD9640, and AD6655. Table 9 includes antialiasing filter component recommendations for popular IF sampling center frequencies. Inductor L5 works in parallel with the on-chip ADC input capacitance and a portion of the capacitance presented by C4 to form a resonant tank circuit. The resonant tank helps to ensure that the ADC input looks like a real resistance at the target center frequency. The L5 inductor shorts the ADC inputs at dc, which introduces a zero into the transfer function. In addition, the ac coupling capacitors introduce additional zeros into the transfer function. The final overall frequency response takes on a bandpass characteristic, helping to reject noise outside of the intended Nyquist zone. Table 9 provides initial suggestions for prototyping purposes. Some empirical optimization may be needed to help compensate for actual PCB parasitic.

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
High-Q inductive drives and loads, as well as stray transmission line capacitance in combination with package parasitics, can potentially form a resonant circuit at high frequencies, resulting in excessive gain peaking or possible oscillation. If RF transmission lines connecting the input or output are used, designed them such that stray capacitance at the input/output pins is minimized.

SOLDERING INFORMATION
On the underside of the chip scale package, there is an exposed compressed paddle. This paddle is internally connected to the ground of the chip. Solder the paddle to the low impedance ground plane on the PCB to ensure the specified electrical performance and to provide thermal relief. To further reduce thermal impedance, the ground planes on all layers under the paddle should be stitched together with vias. To realize the minimum gain (6 dB into a 200 Ω load), Input 1 (VIN1 and VIP1) must be used by installing 0 Ω resistors at R3 and R4, leaving R5 and R6 open. R1 and R2 must be 33 Ω for a 50 Ω input impedance. Likewise, driving Input 2 (VIN2 and VIP2) realizes the middle gain (12 dB into a 200 Ω load) by installing 0 Ω at R5 and R6 and leaving R3 and R4 open. R1 and R2 must be 29 Ω for a 50 Ω input impedance. For the maximum gain (15.5 dB into a 200 Ω load), both inputs are driven by installing 0 Ω resistors at R3, R4, R5, and R6. R1 and R2 must be 40.2 Ω for a 50 Ω input impedance. The balanced input and output interfaces are converted to single ended with a pair of baluns (M/A-COM ETC1-1-13). The balun at the input, T1, provides a 50 Ω single-ended-todifferential transformation. The output balun, T2, and the matching components are configured to provide a 200 Ω to 50 Ω impedance transformation with an insertion loss of about 17 dB.

Component VPOS, GND C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C11 J1, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, C1, C2, C12, T1 Description Ground and Supply Vector Pins. Power Supply Decoupling. The supply decoupling consists of a 10 μF capacitor (C3) to ground. C4 to C7 are bypass capacitors. C11 ac couples VREF to ground. Input Interface. The SMA labeled J1 is the input. T1 is a 1-to-1 impedance ratio balun to transform a single-ended input into a balanced differential signal. C1 and C2 provide ac-coupling. C12 is a bypass capacitor. R1 and R2 provide a differential 50 Ω input termination. R3 to R6 are used to select the input for the pin-strappable gain. Maximum gain: R3, R4, R5, R6 = 0 Ω; R1, R2 = 40.2 Ω. Middle gain: R5, R6 = 0 Ω; R3, R4 = open; R1, R2 = 33 Ω. Minimum gain: R3, R4 = 0 Ω; R5, R6 = open; R1, R2 = 29 Ω. Output Interface. The SMA labeled J3 is the output. T2 is a 1-to-1 impedance ratio balun to transform a balanced differential signal to a single-ended signal. C13 is a bypass capacitor. R7, R8, R9, and R10 are provided for generic placement of matching components. The evaluation board is configured to provide a 200 Ω to 50 Ω impedance transformation with an insertion loss of 17 dB. C9 and C10 provide ac-coupling. Device Enable. C8 is a bypass capacitor. When the P1 jumper is set toward the VPOS label, the ENBL pin is connected to the supply, enabling the device. In the opposite direction, toward the GND label, the ENBL pin is grounded, putting the device in power-down mode.
