FEATURES n LT6604-5 Dual Very Low Noise, Differential Amplifier and 5MHz Lowpass Filter DESCRIPTION The LT®6604-5 consists of two matched, fully differential amplifiers, each with a 4th order, 5MHz lowpass filter. The fixed frequency lowpass filter approximates a Chebyshev response. By integrating a filter and a differential amplifier, distortion and noise are made exceptionally low. At unity gain, the measured in-band signal-to-noise ratio is an impressive 82dB. At higher gains, the input referred noise decreases, allowing the part to process smaller input differential signals without significantly degrading the signal-to-noise ratio. Gain and phase are well matched between the two channels. Gain for each channel is independently programmed using two external resistors. The LT6604-5 enables level shifting by providing an adjustable output common mode voltage, making it ideal for directly interfacing to ADCs. The LT6604-5 is fully specified for 3V operation. The differential design enables outstanding performance at a 2VP-P signal level for a single 3V supply.

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: This is the temperature coefficient of the internal feedback resistors assuming a temperature independent external resistor (RIN). Note 3: The input common mode voltage is the average of the voltages applied to the external resistors (RIN). Specification guaranteed for RIN ≥ 229Ω. Note 4: Distortion is measured differentially using a differential stimulus. The input common mode voltage, the voltage at VOCM, and the voltage at VMID are equal to one half of the total power supply voltage. Note 5: Output common mode voltage is the average of the +OUT and –OUT voltages. The output common mode voltage is equal to VOCM. Note 6: The LT6604C-5 is guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range –40°C to 85°C. Note 7: The LT6604C-5 is guaranteed to meet 0°C to 70°C specifications and is designed, characterized and expected to meet the extended temperature limits, but is not tested at –40°C to 85°C. The LT6604I-5 is guaranteed to meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C. Note 8: Input pins (+IN, –IN, VOCM and VMID) are protected by steering diodes to either supply. If the inputs should exceed either supply voltage, the input current should be limited to less than 10mA. In addition, the inputs +IN, –IN are protected by a pair of back-to-back diodes. If the differential input voltage exceeds 1.4V, the input current should be limited to less than 10mA Note 9: Channel separation (the inverse of crosstalk) is measured by driving a signal into one input while terminating the other input. Channel separation is the ratio of the resulting output signal at the driven channel to the output at the channel that is not driven. 66045f 4 LT6604-5 TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Frequency Response 10 0 –10 –20 GAIN (dB) GAIN (dB) –30 –40 –50 –60 –70 –80 0.1 1 10 FREQUENCY (MHz) 100 66045 G01 Passband Gain and Group Delay VS = 5V GAIN = 1 TA = 25°C 1 0 –1 –2 –3 –4 –5 –6 –7 –8 GAIN = 1 TA = 25°C –9 012 DELAY GAIN 120 110 100 90 DELAY (ns) GAIN (dB) 80 70 60 50 40 30 34567 FREQUENCY (MHz) 8 9 20 10 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 Passband Gain and Group Delay 120 GAIN 110 100 90 DELAY 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 8 9 10 DELAY (ns) 4 GAIN = 4 TA = 25°C 3 01234567 FREQUENCY (MHz) 66045 G02 66045 G03 Output Impedance vs Frequency 100 VS = 5V GAIN = 1 TA = 25°C 90 80 70 CMRR (dB) Common Mode Rejection Ratio VS = 5V GAIN = 1 VIN = 1VP-P TA = 25°C PSRR (dB) 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 40 10 0.1 1 10 FREQUENCY (MHz) 100 66045 G05 Power Supply Rejection Ratio OUTPUT IMPEDANCE (Ω) 10 60 50 1 0.1 0.1 1 10 FREQUENCY (MHz) 100 66045 G04 30 0.01 0 0.01 VS = 3V VIN = 200mVP-P TA = 25°C V+ TO DIFFOUT 0.1 1 10 FREQUENCY (MHz) 100 66045 G06 Distortion vs Frequency –50 –60 DISTORTION (dBc) –70 –80 –90 DIFFERENTIAL INPUT, 2ND HARMONIC DIFFERENTIAL INPUT, 3RD HARMONIC SINGLE-ENDED INPUT, 2ND HARMONIC SINGLE-ENDED INPUT, 3RD HARMONIC –50 –60 DISTORTION (dBc) –70 –80 –90 Distortion vs Frequency DIFFERENTIAL INPUT, 2ND HARMONIC DIFFERENTIAL INPUT, 3RD HARMONIC SINGLE-ENDED INPUT, 2ND HARMONIC SINGLE-ENDED INPUT, 3RD HARMONIC –40 –50 DISTORTION (dBc) Distortion vs Signal Level VS = 3V, RL = 800Ω TA = 25°C, GAIN = 1 –60 3RD HARMONIC, 5MHz INPUT –70 –80 –90 2ND HARMONIC, 5MHz INPUT 3RD HARMONIC, 1MHz INPUT –100 –110 VS = 3V, VIN = 2VP-P RL = 800Ω, TA = 25°C, GAIN = 1 0.1 1 FREQUENCY (MHz) 10 66045 G07 –100 –110 VS = 5V, VIN = 2VP-P RL = 800Ω, TA = 25°C, GAIN = 1 0.1 1 FREQUENCY (MHz) 10 66045 G08 –100 –110 0 1 2ND HARMONIC, 1MHz INPUT 2 3 INPUT LEVEL (VP-P) 4 5 66045 G09 66045f 5 LT6604-5 TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Distortion vs Signal Level –40 DISTORTION COMPONENT (dBc) –50 DISTORTION (dBc) –60 –70 –80 –90 –100 –110 0 3RD HARMONIC 1MHz INPUT 2ND HARMONIC 1MHz INPUT VS = 5V RL = 800Ω, TA = 25°C, GAIN = 1 1 2 3 4 5 66045 G10 Distortion vs Input Common Mode Voltage –40 DISTORTION COMPONENT (dBc) –50 –60 –70 –80 –90 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 3V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 3V 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 5V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 5V –40 –50 –60 –70 –80 –90 Distortion vs Input Common Mode Voltage 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 3V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 3V 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 5V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 5V 3RD HARMONIC 5MHz INPUT 2ND HARMONIC 5MHz INPUT INPUT LEVEL (VP-P) –100 GAIN = 1, VMID = VS/2 2VP-P 1MHz INPUT RL = 800Ω, TA = 25°C –110 –1 0 1 2 3 –3 –2 INPUT COMMON MODE VOLTAGE RELATIVE TO VMID (V) 66045 G11 –100 GAIN = 4, VMID = VS/2 2VP-P 1MHz INPUT RL = 800Ω, TA = 25°C –110 –1 0 1 2 3 –3 –2 INPUT COMMON MODE VOLTAGE RELATIVE TO VMID (V) 66045 G12 Single Channel Supply Current vs Total Supply Voltage 36 34 SUPPLY CURRENT (mA) 32 30 28 26 24 22 20 2 6 10 4 8 TOTAL SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) 12 66045 G13 Transient Response, Differential Gain = 1, Single-Ended Input, Differential Output OUT– 200mV/DIV TA = 85°C OUT+ 200mV/DIV TA = 25°C TA = –40°C IN– 500mV/DIV IN+ 100ns/DIV 66045 G14 Distortion vs Temperature 20 0 OUTPUT LEVEL (dBV) –20 –40 –60 –80 2ND HARMONIC TA = 85°C 2ND HARMONIC TA = 25°C 0 1 4 3 5 2 1MHz INPUT LEVEL (VP-P) 6 7 1dB PASSBAND GAIN COMPRESSION POINTS 1MHz TA = 25°C DISTORTION COMPONENT (dBc) 1MHz TA = 85°C 3RD HARMONIC TA = 85°C 3RD HARMONIC TA = 25°C –40 Distortion vs Output Common Mode Voltage GAIN = 4 VMID = VS/2 –50 T = 25°C A 0.5VP-P 1MHz INPUT RL = 800Ω –60 –70 –80 –90 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 3V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 3V 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 5V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 5V 2ND HARMONIC, VS = 5V 3RD HARMONIC, VS = 5V –100 –120 –100 –110 –1.5 –1.0 –0.5 0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 VOLTAGE VOCM TO VMID (V) 2.5 66045 G15 66045 G16 66045f 6 LT6604-5 TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Input Referred Noise 45 40 NOISE DENSITY (nV/√Hz) 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 0.01 0.1 1 10 FREQUENCY (MHz) INTEGRATED NOISE, GAIN = 1X INTEGRATED NOISE, GAIN = 4X NOISE DENSITY, GAIN = 1X NOISE DENSITY, GAIN = 4X 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 100 66045 G17 Channel Separation vs Frequency (Note 9) –10 VIN = 2VP-P VS = 5V –30 RL = 800Ω AT EACH OUTPUT GAIN = 1 –50 –70 –90 CHANNEL SEPARATION (dB) INTEGRATED NOISE (μV) –110 –130 100k 1M 10M FREQUENCY (Hz) 100M 66045 G18 PIN FUNCTIONS +INA, –INA (Pins 2, 4): Channel A Input Pins.

For a single 3.3V or 5V supply (V– grounded) a quality 0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitor is required from each positive supply pin (V+A, V+B) to the negative supply pin (V–).

The following applications information only refers to one filter. The two filters are independent except that they share the same negative supply voltage V–. The two filters can be used simultaneously by replicating the example circuits. The referenced pin numbers correspond to the A channel filter. Each LT6604-5 channel requires two equal external resistors, RIN, to set the differential gain to 806Ω/RIN. The inputs to the filter are the voltages VIN+ and VIN– presented to these external components, Figure 1. The difference between VIN+ and VIN– is the differential input voltage. The average of VIN+ and VIN– is the common mode input voltage. Similarly, the voltages VOUT+ and VOUT– appearing at Pins 27 and 29 of the LT6604-5 are the filter outputs. The difference between VOUT+ and VOUT– is the differential output voltage. The average of VOUT+ and VOUT– is the common mode output voltage. Figure 1 illustrates the LT6604-5 operating with a single 3.3V supply and unity passband gain; the input signal is DC-coupled. The common mode input voltage is 0.5V, and the differential input voltage is 2VP-P. The common mode output voltage is 1.65V, and the differential output voltage is 2VP-P for frequencies below 5MHz. The common mode output voltage is determined by the voltage at VOCM. Since VOCM is shorted to VMID, the output common mode is the mid supply voltage. In addition, the common mode input voltage can be equal to the mid supply voltage of VMID. Figure 2 shows how to AC couple signals into the LT6604-5. In this instance, the input is a single-ended signal. AC-coupling allows the processing of single-ended or differential signals with arbitrary common mode levels. The 0.1μF coupling capacitor and the 806Ω gain setting resistor form a high pass filter, attenuating signals below 2kHz. Larger values of coupling capacitors will proportionally reduce this highpass 3dB frequency. In Figure 3 the LT6604-5 is providing 12dB of gain. The gain resistor has an optional 62pF in parallel to improve the passband flatness near 5MHz.

The gain, or “transimpedance,” is defined as A = VOUT/IIN. To compute the transimpedance, use the following equation: A= 806 • R1 Ω R1 + R2 and 787Ω resistors satisfy the two constraints above. The transformer converts the single-ended source into a differential stimulus. Similarly, the output of the LT6604-5 will have lower distortion with larger load resistance yet the analyzer input is typically 50Ω. The 4:1 turns (16:1 impedance) transformer and the two 402Ω resistors of Figure 5, present the output of the LT6604-5 with a 1600Ω differential load, or the equivalent of 800Ω to ground at each output. The impedance seen by the network analyzer input is still 50Ω, reducing reflections in the cabling be2.5V 0.1μF NETWORK ANALYZER SOURCE 50Ω COILCRAFT TTWB-1010 1:1 787Ω 4 51.1Ω COILCRAFT TTWB-16A 4:1 402Ω NETWORK ANALYZER INPUT By setting R1 + R2 = 806Ω, the gain equation reduces to A = R1(Ω). The voltage at the pins of the DAC is determined by R1, R2, the voltage on VMID and the DAC output current. Consider Figure 4 with R1 = 49.9Ω and R2 = 750Ω. The voltage at VMID, for VS = 3.3V, is 1.65V. The voltage at the DAC pins is given by: VDAC = VMID • R1 R1• R2 + IIN R1+ R2 + 806 R1+ R2 = 51mV + IIN 46.8Ω 3.3V 0.1μF 25 – 27 34 1/2 + LT6604-5 6 2 50Ω 402Ω 66045 F05 + 7 – 29 787Ω CURRENT OUTPUT DAC IIN – 0.1μF –2.5V R2 4 27 – 34 1/2 + LT6604-5 6 2 R2 25 Figure 5 VOUT+ R1 IIN+ 66045 F04 0.01μF tween the transformer and analyzer input. VOUT– VOUT+ – VOUT– IIN+ – IIN– = 806 • R1 R1 + R2 + 7 – 29 R1 Differential and Common Mode Voltage Ranges The differential amplifiers inside the LT6604-5 contain circuitry to limit the maximum peak-to-peak differential voltage through the filter. This limiting function prevents excessive power dissipation in the internal circuitry and provides output short-circuit protection. The limiting function begins to take effect at output signal levels above 2VP-P and it becomes noticeable above 3.5VP-P. This is illustrated in Figure 6; the LT6604-5 channel was configured with unity passband gain and the input of the filter was driven with a 1MHz signal. Because this voltage limiting takes place well before the output stage of the filter reaches the supply rails, the input/output behavior of the IC shown in Figure 6 is relatively independent of the power supply voltage. The two amplifiers inside the LT6604-5 channel have independent control of their output common mode voltage (see the “Block Diagram” section). The following guidelines will optimize the performance of the filter. 66045f Figure 4 Evaluating the LT6604-5 The low impedance levels and high frequency operation of the LT6604-5 require some attention to the matching networks between the LT6604-5 and other devices. The previous examples assume an ideal (0Ω) source impedance and a large (1k) load resistance. Among practical examples where impedance must be considered is the evaluation of the LT6604-5 with a network analyzer. Figure 5 is a laboratory setup that can be used to characterize the LT6604-5 using single-ended instruments with 50Ω source impedance and 50Ω input impedance. For a unity gain configuration the LT6604-5 requires an 806Ω source resistance yet the network analyzer output is calibrated for a 50Ω load resistance.

Minimize these currents to decrease power dissipation and distortion. Consider the application in Figure 3. VMID sets the output common mode voltage of the 1st differential amplifier inside the LT6604-5 (see the “Block Diagram” section) at 2.5V. Since the input common mode voltage is near 0V, there will be approximately a total of 2.5V drop across the series combination of the internal 806Ω feedback resistor and the external 200Ω input resistor. The resulting 2.5mA common mode DC current in each input path, must be absorbed by the sources VIN+ and VIN–. VOCM sets the common mode output voltage of the 2nd differential amplifier inside the LT6604-5 channel, and therefore sets the common mode output voltage of the filter. Since, in the example of Figure 3, VOCM differs from VMID by 0.5V, an additional 1.25mA (625μA per side) of DC current will flow in the resistors coupling the 1st differential amplifier output stage to the filter output. Thus, a total of 6.25mA is used to translate the common mode voltages. A simple modification to Figure 3 will reduce the DC common mode currents by 36%. If VMID is shorted to VOCM the common mode output voltage of both op amp stages will be 2V and the resulting DC current will be 4mA. Of course, by AC coupling the inputs of Figure 3 and shorting VMID to VOCM, the common mode DC current is eliminated. Noise The noise performance of the LT6604-5 channel can be evaluated with the circuit of Figure 7. Given the low noise output of the LT6604-5 and the 6dB attenuation of the transformer coupling network, it is necessary to measure the noise floor of the spectrum analyzer and subtract the instrument noise from the filter noise measurement. Example: With the IC removed and the 25Ω resistors grounded, Figure 7, measure the total integrated noise 3RD HARMONIC TA = 85°C 3RD HARMONIC TA = 25°C –100 –120 Figure 6. Differential Voltage Range VMID can be allowed to float, but it must be bypassed to an AC ground with a 0.01μF capacitor or some instability may be observed. VMID can be driven from a low impedance source, provided it remains at least 1.5V above V– and at least 1.5V below V+. An internal resistor divider sets the voltage of VMID. While the internal 11k resistors are well matched, their absolute value can vary by ±20%. This should be taken into consideration when connecting an external resistor network to alter the voltage of VMID. VOCM can be shorted to VMID for simplicity. If a different common mode output voltage is required, connect VOCM to a voltage source or resistor network. For 3V and 3.3V supplies the voltage at VOCM must be less than or equal to the mid supply level. For example, voltage (VOCM) ≤ 1.65V on a single 3.3V supply. For power supply voltages higher than 3.3V the voltage at VOCM can be set above mid supply. The voltage on VOCM should not be more than 1V below the voltage on VMID. The voltage on VOCM should not be more than 2V above the voltage on VMID. VOCM is a high impedance input. The LT6604-5 was designed to process a variety of input signals including signals centered on the mid supply voltage and signals that swing between ground and a positive voltage in a single supply system (Figure 1). The allowable range of the input common mode voltage (the average of VIN+ and VIN– in Figure 1) is determined by the power supply level and gain setting (see “Electrical Characteristics”). 66045f 11 LT6604-5 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION (eS) of the spectrum analyzer from 10 kHz to 5MHz.

Conversely, if each output is measured individually and the noise power added together, the resulting calculated noise level will be higher than the true differential noise. Power Dissipation The LT6604-5 amplifiers combine high speed with large signal currents in a small package. There is a need to ensure that the die’s junction temperature does not exceed 150°C. The LT6604-5 has an exposed pad (pin 35) which is connected to the lower supply (V–). Connecting the pad to a ground plane helps to dissipate the heat generated by the chip. Metal trace and plated through-holes can be used to spread the heat generated by the device to the backside of the PC board. Junction temperature, TJ, is calculated from the ambient temperature, TA, and power dissipation, PD. The power dissipation is the product of supply voltage, VS, and total supply current, IS. Therefore, the junction temperature is given by: TJ = TA + (PD • θJA) = TA + (VS • IS • θJA) where the supply current, IS, is a function of signal level, load impedance, temperature and common mode voltages. For a given supply voltage, the worst-case power dissipation occurs when the differential input signal is maximum, the common mode currents are maximum (see Applications RIN 0.1μF –2.5V Figure 7 Table 1 lists the typical input referred integrated noise for various values of RIN.

The noise at each output is comprised of a differential component and a common mode component. Using a transformer or combiner to convert the differential outputs to single-ended signal rejects the common mode noise and 66045f 12 LT6604-5 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Information regarding Common Mode DC Currents), the load impedance is small and the ambient temperature is maximum. To compute the junction temperature, measure the supply current under these worst-case conditions, use 43°C/W as the package thermal resistance, then apply the equation for TJ. For example, using the circuit in Figure 3 with DC differential input voltage of 250mV, a differential output voltage of 1V, 1k load resistance and an ambient temperature of 85°C, the supply current (current into V+) measures 32.2mA per channel. The resulting junction temperature is: TJ = TA + (PD • θJA) = 85 + (5 • 2 • 0.0322 • 43) = 99°C. The thermal resistance can be affected by the amount of copper on the PCB that is connected to V–. The thermal resistance of the circuit can increase if the exposed pad is not connected to a large ground plane with a number of vias.
