Texas Instruments LMH5401 Fully Differential Amplifier

Texas Instruments LMH5401 Fully Differential Amplifier is a very high-performance differential amplifier optimized for radio frequency (RF), intermediate frequency (IF), or high-speed, time-domain applications. The device is ideal for DC- or AC-coupled applications requiring a single-ended-to-differential (SE-DE) conversion when driving an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The LMH5401 generates very low levels of second and third-order distortion when operating in SE-DE or differential-to-differential (DE-DE) mode. The amplifier is optimized for use in both SE-DE and DE-DE systems. The device is stable for a noise gain of ≥ 2V/V or 6dB and has unprecedented usable bandwidth from dc to 2GHz. The Texas Instruments LMH5401 can be used for SE-DE conversions in the signal chain without external baluns in various applications such as test and measurement, broadband communications, and high-speed data acquisition.
