Evaluation Board
General Description
The LMH6552SDEVAL evaluation board is designed to aid in
the characterization of National Semiconductor’s LMH6552
fully differential amplifier in an 8-pin LLP package. The
LMH6552 is part of the LMH
Use the evaluation board as a guide for high frequency layout
and as a tool to aid in device testing and characterization.
The evaluation board schematic is shown below in Figure 1.
Refer to the product datasheets for recommended for com-
ponent values.
Basic Operation
The LMH6552SDEVAL evaluation board has been set up to
provide maximum flexibility for evaluating National’s differen-
tial LMH6552 operational amplifier. The board supports fully
differential operation as well as single-ended to differential
and single-ended to single-ended operation. For fully differ-
ential operation, use resistors R

must be properly configured to give the correct gain and R

ADT4-1WT from Mini Circuits. The ADT4-1WT has a 4:1
impedance ratio (2:1 turns/voltage ratio). This is particularly
useful for interfacing to 50Ω test equipment. When referenc-
ing the transformer datasheet, the 980600016 evaluation
board has the primary windings on the output side of the eval-
uation board and the amplifier is driving the secondary wind-
ings. This provides a step down transformation from the
differential amplifier output to the test equipment. The center-
tapped secondary winding also allows a differential to single

Pin 7 on the LMH6552 device is the enable (EN) pin that can
be used to disable the device with an external signal. Refer
to LMH6552 datasheet for more details.
Layout Considerations
Printed circuit board layout and supply bypassing play major
roles in determining high frequency performance. When de-
signing your own board use these evaluation boards as a
guide and follow these steps to optimize high frequency per-
formance:

Measurement Hints
Balance, CMRR and HD2 are highly dependent on resistor
matching. Use 0.1 or 0.01% resistors.
The LMH6552SDEVAL evaluation board is designed for dif-
ferential or single-ended output measurements, but not both
at the same time. When not using the transformer make sure
to leave R
ended output measurements leave R
Many differential amplifiers are optimized for the higher
impedances represented by most ADCs.
On a differential amplifier both inputs are inverting, keep par-
asitic capacitance to a minimum on both inputs. Also, using
probes of any kind on a differential circuit is not recommend-
ed.
Symmetry is of the utmost importance.
Use precision resistors 0.1% or 0.01%.
Use a ground plane.
Include large ( ~ 10 μF) capacitors on both supplies (C
and C
Near the device use 0.01 μF ceramic capacitors from
both supplies to ground (C
A capacitor between V
help lower distortion.
Remove the ground and power planes from under and
around the part, especially the input and output pins.
Minimize all trace lengths.
Use terminated transmission lines for long traces.
