APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The AD8310 is highly versatile and easy to use. It needs only a
few external components, most of which can be immediately
accommodated using the simple connections shown in the
Using the AD8310 section.
A few examples of more specialized applications are provided
in the following sections. See the
applications (note the slightly different pin configuration).
CABLE-DRIVING
For a supply voltage of 3 V or greater, the AD8310 can drive a
grounded 100 Ω load to 2.5 V. If reverse-termination is required
when driving a 50 Ω cable, it should be included in series with
the output, as shown in Figure 37. The slope at the load is then
12 mV/dB. In some cases, it might be permissible to operate the
cable without a termination at the far end, in which case the
slope is not lowered. Where a further increase in slope is
desirable, the scheme shown in Figure 34 can be used.
DC-COUPLED INPUT
It might occasionally be necessary to provide response to dc
inputs. Because the AD8310 is internally dc-coupled, there is no
reason why this cannot be done. However, its differential inputs
must be positioned at least 2 V above the COM potential for
proper biasing of the first stage. Usually, the source is a single-
sided ground-referenced signal, so level-shifting and a single-
ended-to-differential conversion must be provided to correctly
drive the AD8310’s inputs.
Figure 38 shows how a level-shift to midsupply (2.5 V in this
example) and a single-ended-to-differential conversion can be
accomplished using the
499 Ω resistors set up a gain of unity. An output common-mode
(or bias) voltage of 2.5 is achieved by applying 2.5 V from a supply-
referenced resistive divider to the V
differential outputs of the AD8138 directly drive the 1.1 kΩ
input impedance of the AD8310.

In this application the offset voltage of the AD8138 must be
trimmed. The internal offset compensation circuitry of the
AD8310 is disabled by applying a nominal voltage of ~1.9 V to
the OFLT pin, so the trim on the AD8138 is effectively trimming
the offsets of both devices. The trim is done by grounding the
circuit’s input and slightly varying the gain resistors on the
inverting input of the AD8138 (a 50 Ω potentiometer is used in
this example) until the voltage on the AD8310’s output reaches
a minimum.
After trimming, the lower end of the dynamic range is limited
by the broadband noise at the output of the AD8138, which is
approximately 425 μV p-p. A differential low-pass filter can be
added between the AD8138 and the AD8310 when the very fast
pulse response of the circuit is not required.
