ISL1571
Power Line Communication (PLC)
The ISL1571 is a dual operational amplifier designed
for PLC line driving in Orthogonal Frequency-Division
Multiplexing (OFDM) and Spread Spectrum
Communication (SSC) based solutions. This device
features a high drive capability of 750mA while
consuming only 6mA of supply current per amplifier
and operating from a single 4.5V to 12V supply. The
driver achieves a typical distortion of -80dBc, at
150kHz into a 25Ω load.
The ISL1571 is available in the thermally-enhanced
16 Ld QFN or 10 Ld HMSOP package and is specified
for operation across the full -40°C to +85°C
temperature range. The ISL1571 has control pins
BIAS0 and BIAS1 for controlling the bias and
enable/disable of the outputs. These controls allow for
lowering the power to fit the performance/power ratio
for the application.

4. Product Description
Product Description
The ISL1571 is a dual operational amplifier designed for line driving in OFDM and PLC solutions. It is a dual
current-mode feedback amplifier with low distortion while drawing moderately low supply current. It is built using
the Renesas proprietary complimentary bipolar process and is offered in industry standard pin configurations. Due
to the current feedback architecture, the ISL1571 closed-loop 3dB bandwidth is dependent on the value of the
feedback resistor. First the desired bandwidth is selected by choosing the feedback resistor, RF, and then the gain
is set by picking the gain resistor, RG. The curves at the beginning of the “Typical Performance Curves” on page 5,
show the effect of varying both RF and RG. The 3dB bandwidth is somewhat dependent on the power supply
voltage.
4.1
Power Supply Bypassing and Printed Circuit Board Layout
As with any high frequency device, good printed circuit board layout is necessary for optimum performance.
Ground plane construction is highly recommended. Lead lengths should be as short as possible, below 0.25”. The
power supply pins must be well bypassed to reduce the risk of oscillation. A 4.7µF tantalum capacitor in parallel
with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is adequate for each supply pin. During power-up, it is necessary to limit the slew
rate of the rising power supply to within 1V/µs. If the power supply rising time is undetermined, a series 10Ω
resistor on the power supply line can be used to ensure the proper power supply rise time.
For good AC performance, parasitic capacitances is kept to a minimum, especially at the inverting input. This
implies keeping the ground plane away from this pin. Carbon resistors are acceptable, while use of wire-wound
resistors should be avoided because of their parasitic inductance. Similarly, capacitors should be low inductance
for best performance.
4.2
Capacitance at the Inverting Input
Due to the topology of the current feedback amplifier, stray capacitance at the inverting input affects the AC and
transient performance of the ISL1571 when operating in the non-inverting configuration.
In the inverting gain mode, added capacitance at the inverting input has little effect since this point is at a virtual
ground and stray capacitance is therefore not “seen” by the amplifier.
4.3
Feedback Resistor Values
The ISL1571 has been designed and specified with RF = 750Ω for AV = +5. This value of feedback resistor yields
extremely flat frequency response with 1dB peaking out to 250MHz. As is the case with all current feedback
amplifiers, wider bandwidth, at the expense of slight peaking, can be obtained by reducing the value of the
feedback resistor. Inversely, larger values of feedback resistor causes rolloff to occur at a lower frequency. See
the curves in the Typical Performance Curves beginning on page 5, which show 3dB bandwidth and peaking
versus frequency for various feedback resistors and various supply voltages.
4.4
Bandwidth vs Temperature
Whereas many amplifier's supply current (and consequently 3dB bandwidth) drop off at high temperature, the
ISL1571 was designed to have little supply current variations with temperature. An immediate benefit is the 3dB
bandwidth does not drop off drastically with temperature.
4.5
Supply Voltage Range
The ISL1571IRZ has been designed to operate with supply voltages from ±2.25V to ±6V nominal. Optimum
bandwidth, slew rate, and video characteristics are obtained at higher supply voltages.
4.6
Single Supply Operation
If a single supply is desired, values from +4.5V to +12V nominal can be used as long as the input common-mode
range is not exceeded. When using a single supply, be sure to either:
1. DC bias the inputs at an appropriate common-mode voltage and AC couple the signal, or:
2. Ensure the driving signal is within the common-mode range of the ISL1571. ISL1571IUEZ must be used in
single supply applications.

4. Product Description
PLC Modem Applications
The ISL1571 is designed as a line driver for PLC modems. It is capable of outputting 450mA of output current with
a typical supply voltage headroom of 1.3V. It can achieve -85dBc of distortion at low 7.1mA of supply current per
amplifier.
The average line power requirement for the PLC application is 13dBm (20mW) into a 100Ω line. The average line
voltage is 1.41VRMS. Using a differential drive configuration and transformer coupling with standard back
termination, a transformer ratio of 1:2 is selected. The circuit configuration is shown in Figure 23.
