Differential Input Configurations
Optimum performance is achieved when driving the
in a differential input configuration. For baseband applications,
the AD8138, ADA4937-2, and
provide excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC.
The output common-mode voltage of the
set with the VCMx pin of the
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to provide
band limiting of the input signal.
For baseband applications where SNR is a key parameter,
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input
configuration. An example is shown in Figure 37. To bias the
analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the center
tap of the secondary winding of the transformer.

The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can also
cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD6657A. For applications in
which SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling
is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 38). In this
configuration, the input is ac-coupled and the CML is provided to
each input through a 33 Ω resistor. These resistors compensate
for losses in the input baluns to provide a 50 Ω impedance to
the driver.
In the double balun and transformer configurations, the value
of the input capacitors and resistors is dependent on the input
frequency and source impedance and may need to be reduced
or removed. Table 10 lists recommended values to set the RC
network. At higher input frequencies, good performance can be
achieved by using a ferrite bead in series with a resistor and
removing the capacitors. However, these values are dependent
on the input signal and should be used as a starting guide only.

An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequen-
cies in the second Nyquist zone is to use the
driver (see Figure 39). For more information, see the
data sheet.
