The LT®1993-2 is a low distortion, low noise Differential
Amplifier/ADC driver for use in applications from DC to
800MHz. The LT1993-2 has been designed for ease of
use, with minimal support circuitry required. Exceptionally low input-referred noise and low distortion products
(with either single-ended or differential inputs) make the
LT1993-2 an excellent solution for driving high speed 12bit and 14-bit ADCs. In addition to the normal unfiltered
outputs (+OUT and –OUT), the LT1993-2 has a built-in
175MHz differential low pass filter and an additional pair
of filtered outputs (+OUTFILTERED, –OUTFILTERED) to
reduce external filtering components when driving high
speed ADCs. The output common mode voltage is easily set
via the VOCM pin, eliminating either an output transformer
or AC-coupling capacitors in many applications.

The LT1993-2 is designed to meet the demanding requirements of communications transceiver applications. It can
be used as a differential ADC driver, a general-purpose
differential gain block, or in any other application requiring differential drive. The LT1993-2 can be used in data
acquisition systems required to function at frequencies
down to DC.
The LT1993-2 operates on a 5V supply and consumes
100mA. It comes in a compact 16-lead 3 × 3 QFN package
and operates over a –40°C to 85°C temperature range.

VCCA, VCCB, VCCC (Pins 3, 10, 1): Positive Power Supply
(Normally Tied to 5V). All three pins must be tied to the

the same voltage. Split supplies are possible as long as
the voltage between VCC and VEE is 5V. If these pins are
not tied to ground, bypass each pin with 1000pF and 0.1µF
capacitors as close to the package as possible.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Circuit Description
Input Impedance and Matching Networks
The LT1993-2 is a low-noise, low-distortion differential
amplifier/ADC driver with:
Because of the internal feedback network, calculation of
the LT1993-2’s input impedance is not straightforward
from examination of the block diagram. Furthermore, the
input impedance when driven differentially is different than
when driven single-ended. When driven differentially, the
LT1993-2’s input impedance is 200Ω (differential); when
driven single-ended, the input impedance is 133Ω.
• DC to 800MHz –3dB bandwidth
• Fixed gain of 2V/V (6dB) independent of RLOAD
• 200Ω differential input impedance
• Low output impedance
• Built-in, user adjustable output filtering
• Requires minimal support circuitry
Referring to the block diagram, the LT1993-2 uses a closedloop topology which incorporates 3 internal amplifiers.
Two of the amplifiers (A and B) are identical and drive
the differential outputs. The third amplifier (C) is used
to set the output common mode voltage. Gain and input
impedance are set by the 200Ω resistors in the internal
feedback network. Output impedance is low, determined
by the inherent output impedance of amplifiers A and B,
and further reduced by internal feedback.
The LT1993-2 also includes built-in single-pole output
filtering. The user has the choice of using the unfiltered
outputs, the filtered outputs (175MHz –3dB lowpass), or
modifying the filtered outputs to alter frequency response
by adding additional components. Many lowpass and
bandpass filters are easily implemented with just one or
two additional components.
The LT1993-2 has been designed to minimize the need
for external support components such as transformers or
AC-coupling capacitors. As an ADC driver, the LT1993-2
requires no external components except for power-supply
bypass capacitors. This allows DC-coupled operation for
applications that have frequency ranges including DC.
At the outputs, the common mode voltage is set via the
VOCM pin, allowing the LT1993-2 to drive ADCs directly. No
output AC-coupling capacitors or transformers are needed.
At the inputs, signals can be differential or single-ended
with virtually no difference in performance. Furthermore,
DC levels at the inputs can be set independently of the
output common mode voltage. These input characteristics
often eliminate the need for an input transformer and/or
AC-coupling capacitors.
14
For single-ended 50Ω applications, an 80.6Ω shunt
matching resistor to ground will result in the proper input
termination (Figure 1). For differential inputs there are
several termination options. If the input source is 50Ω
differential, then input matching can be accomplished by
either a 67Ω shunt resistor across the inputs (Figure 3),
or a 33Ω shunt resistor on each of the inputs to ground
(Figure 2). If additional AC gain is desired, a 1:4 impedance
ratio transformer (like the Mini-Circuits TCM4-19) can also
be used to better match impedances and to provide an additional 6dB of gain (Figure 4). With a 1:4 impedance ratio
transformer, ideal matching impedance at the transformer
output is 200Ω, so no termination resistors are required
to match the LT1993-2’s 200Ω input impedance.

with 6dB Additional Gain
In applications where the full bandwidth of the LT1993-2
is desired, the unfiltered output pins (+OUT and –OUT)
should be used. They have a low output impedance;
therefore, gain is unaffected by output load. Capacitance
in excess of 5pF placed directly on the unfiltered outputs
results in additional peaking and reduced performance.
When driving an ADC directly, a small series resistance
is recommended between the LT1993-2’s outputs and
the ADC inputs (Figure 5). This resistance helps eliminate
any resonances associated with bond wire inductances of
either the ADC inputs or the LT1993-2’s outputs. A value
between 10Ω and 25Ω gives excellent results.
Single-Ended to Differential Operation
–OUT
The LT1993-2’s performance with single-ended inputs is
comparable to its performance with differential inputs.
This excellent single-ended performance is largely due
to the internal topology of the LT1993-2. Referring to
the block diagram, if the +INA and +INB pins are driven
with a single-ended signal (while –INA and –INB are tied
to AC ground), then the +OUT and –OUT pins are driven
differentially without any voltage swing needed from
amplifier C. Single-ended to differential conversion using
more conventional topologies suffers from performance
limitations due to the common mode amplifier.
Driving ADCs
The LT1993-2 has been specifically designed to interface
directly with high speed Analog to Digital Converters
(ADCs). In general, these ADCs have differential inputs,
with an input impedance of 1k or higher. In addition, there
is generally some form of lowpass or bandpass filtering just
prior to the ADC to limit input noise at the ADC, thereby
improving system signal to noise ratio. Both the unfiltered
and filtered outputs of the LT1993-2 can easily drive the

Filtered Applications
(Using the +OUTFILTERED and –OUTFILTERED Pins)
Filtering at the output of the LT1993-2 is often desired to
provide either anti-aliasing or improved signal to noise
ratio. To simplify this filtering, the LT1993-2 includes an
additional pair of differential outputs (+OUTFILTERED
and –OUTFILTERED) which incorporate an internal lowpass filter network with a –3dB bandwidth of 175MHz
(Figure 6). These pins each have an output impedance
of 25Ω. Internal capacitances are 12pF to VEE on each
filtered output, plus an additional 12pF capacitor connected differentially between the two filtered outputs. This
resistor/capacitor combination creates filtered outputs

it will appear at each filtered output as a single-ended
capacitance of twice the value. To halve the filter bandwidth, for example, two 36pF capacitors could be added
(one from each filtered output to ground). Alternatively
one 18pF capacitor could be added between the filtered
outputs, again halving the filter bandwidth. Combinations
of capacitors could be used as well; a three capacitor
solution of 12pF from each filtered output to ground plus
a 12pF capacitor between the filtered outputs would also
halve the filter bandwidth (Figure 8).

The filter cutoff frequency is easily modified with just a
few external components. To increase the cutoff frequency,
simply add 2 equal value resistors, one between +OUT and
+OUTFILTERED and the other between –OUT and –OUTFILTERED (Figure 7). These resistors are in parallel with the
internal 25Ω resistor, lowering the overall resistance and
increasing filter bandwidth. To double the filter bandwidth,
for example, add two external 25Ω resistors to lower
the series resistance to 12.5Ω. The 36pF of capacitance
remains unchanged, so filter bandwidth doubles.

Output Common Mode Adjustment
The LT1993-2’s output common mode voltage is set by the
VOCM pin. It is a high-impedance input, capable of setting
the output common mode voltage anywhere in a range
from 1.1V to 3.6V. Bandwidth of the VOCM pin is typically
300MHz, so for applications where the VOCM pin is tied to
a DC bias voltage, a 0.1µF capacitor at this pin is recommended. For best distortion performance, the voltage at
the VOCM pin should be between 1.8V and 2.6V.
When interfacing with most ADCs, there is generally a
VOCM output pin that is at about half of the supply voltage
of the ADC. For 5V ADCs such as the LTC17XX family, this
VOCM output pin should be connected directly (with the
addition of a 0.1µF capacitor) to the input VOCM pin of the
LT1993-2. For 3V ADCs such as the LTC22XX families,
the LT1993-2 will function properly using the 1.65V from
the ADC’s VCM reference pin, but improved Spurious Free
Dynamic Range (SFDR) and distortion performance can
be achieved by level-shifting the LTC22XX’s VCM reference
voltage up to at least 1.8V. This can be accomplished as
shown in Figure 10 by using a resistor divider between
the LTC22XX’s VCM output pin and VCC and then bypassing the LT1993-2’s VOCM pin with a 0.1µF capacitor. For a
common mode voltage above 1.9V, AC coupling capacitors
are recommended between the LT1993-2 and LTC22XX

Large Output Voltage Swings
The LT1993-2 has been designed to provide the 3.2VP-P
output swing needed by the LTC1748 family of 14-bit
low-noise ADCs. This additional output swing improves
system SNR by up to 4dB. Typical performance curves
and AC specifications have been included for these applications.
Input Bias Voltage and Bias Current
The input pins of the LT1993-2 are internally biased to
the voltage applied to the VOCM pin. No external biasing
resistors are needed, even for AC-coupled operation. The
input bias current is determined by the voltage difference
between the input common mode voltage and the VOCM pin
(which sets the output common mode voltage). At both
the positive and negative inputs, any voltage difference is
imposed across 200Ω, generating an input bias current.
For example, if the inputs are tied to 2.5V with the VOCM
pin at 2.2V, then a total input bias current of 1.5mA will
flow into the LT1993-2’s +INA and +INB pins. Furthermore,
an additional input bias current totaling 1.5mA will flow
into the –INA and –INB inputs.
