LT5554
The PGx gain control inputs and STROBE input can be
confi gured to be either DC coupled or AC coupled depend-
ing on MODE pin level. The LT5554 gain control inputs
can be connected without external components to a wide
range of user control interfaces.
The LT5554 has internal overdrive protection circuitry.
The recovery time from a short duration (less than 5ns)
overdrive pulse is 5ns.
Input Interface
The DC voltage level at the IN
biased to about 2V when the part is either enabled or
disabled. The best linearity performance is achieved when
an input imbalance is less than 2dB.
Two typical Input connection circuits are shown in Figures
3 and 4.
An input source with 50Ω (5%) is required for best gain
error performance.
Decouple (DEC) Input
The DEC pin provides the DC voltage level for differential
inputs IN
charge/discharge the LT5554 input coupling capacitors
with about 30mA sourcing or sinking current capability.

The DEC pin can be used as a voltage reference for external
circuitry when DC input coupling is desired.
Output Interface
The output interface must conduct the DC current of about
45mA to the amplifi er outputs (OUT
examples are shown in Figures 5 and 6.
A wide band ADC voltage interface is shown in Figure
5 where L1 and L2 are choke inductors. For a narrow
band application, a band pass fi lter can be placed at the
LT5554’s outputs.
