... ADCs with low noise and low distortion, but can also be used as a general-purpose broadband gain block. The LTC6401-8 is easy to use, with minimal support cir- cuitry required. The output common mode voltage is set using an external pin, independent of the inputs, which eliminates the need for transformers or AC-coupling ca- pacitors in many applications. The gain is internally fi ...

... Note 5: Input and output baluns used. See Test Circuit A. Note 6: Measured using Test Circuit B. R Note 7: Since the LTC6401 feedback amplifi er with low output impedance, a resistive load is not required when driving an AD converter. Therefore, typical output power is very small. In order to compare the LTC6401-8 with amplifi ...

... Moreover, they offer single-ended 50Ω matching in wideband applications and no external resistor is needed. The LTC6401-8 is very fl exible in terms of I/O coupling. It can be AC- or DC-coupled at the inputs, the outputs or both. Due to the internal connection between input and output, users are advised to keep input common mode voltage between 1V and 1 ...
