SPLIT SUPPLY OPERATION
For optimum performance, split supply operation is recom-
mended using +5V and −5V supplies; however, operation is
possible on split supplies as low as +2.25V and −2.25V and
as high as +6V and −6V. Provided the total supply voltage
does not exceed the 4.5V to 12V operating specification, non-
symmetric supply operation is also possible and in some
cases advantageous. For example , if a 5V DC coupled op-
eration is required for low power dissipation but the amplifier
input common mode range prevents this operation, it is still
possible with split supplies of (V
(V
plifier input common mode range to suit the application.
OUTPUT NOISE PERFORMANCE AND MEASUREMENT
Unlike differential amplifiers based on voltage feedback ar-
chitectures, noise sources internal to the LMH6552 refer to
the inputs largely as current sources, hence the low input re-
ferred voltage noise and relatively higher input referred cur-
rent noise. The output noise is therefore more strongly
coupled to the value of the feedback resistor and not to the
closed loop gain, as would be the case with a voltage feed-
back differential amplifier. This allows operation of the
LMH6552 at much higher gain without incurring a substantial
noise performance penalty, simply by choosing a suitable
feedback resistor.

figure for the LMH6552 in a 50Ω system. An R
275Ω is chosen for the SOIC package to minimize output
noise while simultaneously allowing both high gain (9 V/V)
and proper 50Ω input termination. Refer to the section titled
Single Ended Input Operation for calculation of resistor and
gain values. Noise figure values at various frequencies are
shown in the plot titled Noise Figure in the Typical Perfor-
mance Characteristics section.
DRIVING ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTERS
Analog-to-digital converters present challenging load condi-
tions. They typically have high impedance inputs with large
and often variable capacitive components. As well, there are
usually current spikes associated with switched capacitor or
sample and hold circuits.

sistors serve to isolate the capacitive loading of the ADC from
the amplifier and ensure stability. In addition, the resistors,
along with a 2.2 pF capacitor across the outputs (in parallel
with the ADC input capacitance), form a low pass anti-aliasing
filter with a pole frequency of about 60 MHz. For switched

on the clock cycle, as the ADC switches between the sample

is a dual 12-bit ADC with maximum sampling rate of 80 MSPS.
The amplifier is configured to provide a gain of 2 V/V in single
to differential mode. An external band-pass filter is inserted in
series between the input signal source and the amplifier to
reduce harmonics and noise from the signal generator. In or-
