The LT®5554 is a 7-bit digitally controlled programmable
gain (PG) amplifier with 16dB gain control range. It
consists of a 50Ω input variable attenuator, followed by
a high linearity variable transconductance amplifier. The
coarse 4dB input attenuator step is implemented via 2-bits
of digital control (PG5, PG6). The fine transconductance
amplifier 0.125dB step within 3.875dB gain control range
is set via 5-bits digital control (PG0 to PG4). The LT5554
gain control inputs (PGx) and the STROBE input can be
directly coupled to TTL or ECL drivers. The seven parallel
gain control inputs time skew can be eliminated by using
the STROBE input positive transition.
The internal output resistor RO = 400Ω limits the maximum overall gain to 36dB for open outputs. The internal
circuitry of open output collectors enables the LT5554 to
be unconditionally stable over any loading conditions (including external SAW filters) and provides –80dB reverse
isolation at 300MHz.

load resistance as seen at OUT+, OUT– pins.
All dBm figures are with respect to 50Ω. Specifications refer to differential
inputs and differential outputs.
Note 4: An external power supply equal to VCCO is used for choke
inductors or center-tap transformer output interfaces. Whenever OUT+,
OUT– pins are biased via resistors, the voltage drop produced by the DCoutput current (IODC = 45mA typical) may require a larger output external
power supply. However, care must be taken not to exceed the OUT+,
OUT– absolute maximum rating when the LT5554 is disabled.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 5: RTI (Referred-To-Input) stands for the total input-referred noise
voltage source. RTI is close to output noise voltage divided by voltage gain
(the exact equation is given in Definition of Specification section). The
equivalent noise source eN is twice the RTI value.
Note 6: The external loading at LT5554 OUT+/OUT– pins is RLOAD = 57Ω.
ROUT = RLOAD || RO = 50Ω.
Note 7: The IN+, IN–, DEC pins are internally biased. The time-constant
of input coupling capacitor sets the low frequency corner (LF) at input.
The output coupling capacitors or the transformer sets the low frequency
corner (LF) at the output. The LT5554 operates internally down to DC.
Note 8: The external loading at OUT+/OUT– pins is RLOAD = 133Ω.
ROUT = RLOAD || RO = 100Ω.
Note 9: Depending on the actual input matching conditions and frequency
of operation, the LT5554 steps involving the input attenuator tap change
may show less than 0.125dB change. These steps are GMAX –4dB, GMAX
–8dB, GMAX –12dB, and the code is given in the Programmable Gain Table.
The LT5554 monotonic operation for 0.125dB step resolution can still be
obtained by skipping any such code with a gain error excedding 0.125dB.

PIN FUNCTIONS
GND (Pins 1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 13, 15, 16, 19, 22, 25, 26, 28,
31): Ground Pins.
DEC (Pins 3, 6): Decoupling Pin for the Internal DC Bias
Voltage for the Differential Inputs, IN+ and IN–. It is also
connected to the ‘virtual ground’ of the input resistive
attenuator. Capacitive de-coupling to ground is recommended in order to preserve linearity performance when
IN+, IN– inputs are driven with up to 3dB imbalance.
IN+ (Pin 4): Positive Signal Input Pin with Internal DC
Bias to 2V.
IN– (Pin 5): Negative Signal Input Pin with Internal DC
Bias to 2V.
PG5 (Pin 9): 4dB Step Amplifier Programmable Gain Control Input Pin. Input levels are controlled by MODE pin.
PG6 (Pin 11): 8dB Step Amplifier Programmable Gain
Control Input Pin. Input levels are controlled by the
MODE pin.
PG0 (Pin 12): 0.125dB Step Amplifier Programmable
Gain Control Input Pin. Input levels are controlled by
MODE pin.
STROBE (Pin 14): Strobe Pin for the Programmable Gain
Control Inputs (PGx). With STROBE in Low-state, the
Amplifier Gain is not changed by PGx state changes (latch
mode). With STROBE in High-state, the Amplifier Gain is
asynchronously set by PGx inputs transitions (transparent-mode). A positive STROBE transition updates the
PGx state. Low-state and High-state depends on MODE
pin level (Table1).
VCC (Pins 17, 24): Power Supply Pins. These pins are
internally connected together.
MODE (Pin 18): PGx and STROBE Functionality and Level
Control Pin. When MODE is higher than VCC – 0.4V, the
PGx and STROBE are DC-coupled. When the MODE pin
is lower than 0.6V, the PGx and STROBE are AC-coupled.
5554f

LT5554
PIN FUNCTIONS
When the MODE pin is left open, the PGx inputs are ACcouple and the STROBE input is DC-coupled.
When the ENB input voltage is less than or equal to 0.6V,
the amplifier is turned off.
In DC-coupled mode, the PGx and STROBE inputs levels are
0.6V and 2.2V. In AC-coupled mode, the PGx and STROBE
inputs are driven with 0.6VP-P minimum amplitude (with
rise and fall time 140Ω, in which case
the instantaneous voltage at each OUT+ and OUT– outputs
is either 8V.
The internal 400Ω differential resistor (RO) sets the output
impedance and the maximum voltage gain (GMAX) to 36dB
when outputs OUT+, OUT– are open.
The output OP1dB = 20dBm can be achieved when ROUT =
130Ω. In this case, the LT5554 outputs reach both current
and voltage limiting for maximum output power.
Figure 7 shows the Voltage and Power Gains as a function of ROUT, which is the total output loading at the open
collector amplifier output including the internal resistor
RO = 400Ω.

MAXIMUM GAIN (dB)

In addition, the STROBE input can be driven such that the
LT5554 gain state is updated asynchronously (PGx latch
control in transparent-mode) or controlled by positive
STROBE transition (PGx latch control in strobed-mode).

There are several options available for coupling type and
latch control which are given in the following tables:

The MODE pin selects the interface to the LT5554 gain
control pins.
The PGx and STROBE control inputs can be configured
to be either DC-coupled (for TTL interface) or AC-coupled
(for ECL or low-voltage CMOS interfaces).

Where RIN = 50Ω and GM = 0.15 siemens at GMAX
For wide band applications, the amplifier bandwidth can
be extended by inductive peaking technique. The inductor
in series with the LT5554 outputs (OUT+ OUT–) can have
a value up to some tens of nH depending on ROUT value
and board capacitance.
The current limiting will occur with ROUT 6V. If disabled, the VCCO will be applied at OUT+,
OUT– exceeding the absolute maximum 6V limit with
possible LT5554 failure.
Figure 17 shows the evaluation board for wide-band
characterization at ROUT = 50Ω, where the insertion loss
of the output balun is about –1dB at 1GHz. Several ROUT
options are given in Table 4 as well as the output padding
insertion-loss and required VCCO for 5V on LT5554 outputs.
The LT5554 output power at open collector outputs is:

Timing characterization and AC-coupled gain control inputs
are tested on evaluation board. The required circuit modifications are shown in the Figure 20 simplified schematic
and detailed below for PG6 (8dB step). The PG6 pulse
source is applied at J6 connector and 50Ω terminated by
R16 and R33 resistors. C66 decouple R33 to ground while
C16 provides DC-decoupling between referenced to ground
pulse source and the PG6 DC-voltage. A supply connected
to PG6 turret will set the PG6 DC-voltage in 0V to 5V range.
All other (untested) PGx DC-voltage can be independently
be applied at VPG turret decoupled by C88.
Strobe-mode operation is tested with a pulse source applied at J7 connector as shown in Figure 20.
Applying similar modifications around J2 and J4 connectors shown in Figure 21, other PGx inputs can be evaluated.
As described in Table 1 and Table 2, the MODE pin will
select the desired state.

Evaluation Board
Figure 21 shows the schematic of the LT5554 evaluation
board. Transformer T2 is TC2-1T and resistor R5 + R6 =
134Ω (ROUT = 50Ω GP(J3) = 13.2dB). The silkscreen and
layout are shown in Figures 22 through Figure 27. The
board control J5 edge connector (40PINS SMT-TB) allows
easy access to LT5554 component pins. Alternatively or
combined with J5, 14 test points (turrets) for signals and
two for GND are also available. The board is powered with
a single supply in 4.75V to 5.25V at VCC and VCCO (either
J5 connector or turrets). Connecting the ENABLE pin to
VCC supply enables the LT5554 part. PGx gain control
and STROBE inputs will have TTL levels (DC-coupled)
when MODE = 5V (same power supply). To set LT5554 for
maximum gain (GMAX) in transparent-mode, all seven PGx
and STROBE can be connected to 5V supply. Alternatively,
a 2.2V power supply at VPG pin and STROBE turret will
set same GMAX state.
J1 (input) and J3 (output) are the default board signal
ports for evaluation with 50Ω single ended test system. For
differential evaluation, the board J11 and J33 connectors
must be reconfigured.
