The gain calibration is specified for an open-circuited load,

such as the high input resistance of an ADC. When resistively

loaded, all gain values are nominally lowered as follows:

(

UNLOADED

LOADED

150

(13)

Thus, when RL = 150 Ω, the gain is reduced by 6 dB; for

RL = 75 Ω, the reduction is 9.5 dB; and for RL = 50 Ω, it is 12 dB.

Gain Errors Due to On-Chip Resistor Tolerances

In all cases where external resistors are used, keep in mind that

all on-chip resistances, including the RO and the input resistance

(RI), are subject to variances of up to ±20%.

These variances need to be accounted for when calculating the

gain with input and output loading. This sensitivity can be avoided

by adjusting the source and load resistances to bear an inverse

relationship as follows:

If RS = αRI, then make RL = RO/α; or,

if RL = αRO, then make RS = RI/α

The simplest case is when RS = 1 kΩ and RL = 150 Ω, therefore,

the gain is 12 dB lower than the basic value. The reduction of

peak swing at the load can be corrected by using VMAG = 1 V,

thereby restoring 6 dB of gain; using VMAG = 2 V restores the full

basic gain and doubles the peak available output swing.

Output (Input) Common-Mode Control

The output voltages are nominally positioned at the midpoint of

the supply, VS/2, over the range 2.7 V < VS < 6 V, and this voltage

appears at Pin CNTR, which is not normally expected to be

loaded (the source resistance is ~4 kΩ). However, some circum-

stances require a small change in this voltage, and a resistor

from CNTR to ground can lower this voltage, whereas a resistor

to the supply raises it. On the other hand, this pin can be driven

by an external voltage source to set the common-mode level to

satisfy, for example, the needs of a following ADC. Any value

from 0.5 V above ground to 0.5 V below the supply is permissible.

Of course, when using an extreme common-mode level, the

available output swing is limited, and it is recommended that

a value equal or close to the default of VCNTR = VS/2 be used.

There may be a few millivolts of offset between the applied

voltage and the actual common-mode level at the output pins.

The input common-mode voltage, VCMI, at Pin INHI and

Pin INLO is slaved to the output, but with a shifted value of

VCMI = 0.757 VCNTR + 1.12 V

(14)

for VDBS = 0.75 and T = 25°C. Thus, the default value for VCMI

when VS = 5 V is 3.01 V (see Figure 55).

USING THE AD8330

This section describes a few general aspects of using the

AD8330. Applying the AD8330 to a wide variety of circum-

stances requires very few precautions.

As in all high frequency circuits, careful observation of the

ground nodes associated with each function is important. Three

positive supply pins are provided: VPSI supports the input cir-

cuitry that often operates at a relatively high sensitivity; VPOS

supports general bias sources and needs no decoupling; and

VPSO biases the output stage where decoupling can be useful in

maintaining a glitch-free output. Figure 57 shows the general

case, where VPSI and VPSO are each provided with their own

decoupling network, but this is not needed in all cases.

Figure 57. Power Supply Decoupling and Basic Connections

Because of the differential nature of the signal path, power

supply decoupling is, in general, much less critical than in a

single-sided amplifier; and where the minimization of board-

level components is especially crucial, it is possible that these

pins need no decoupling at all. On the other hand, when the

signal source is single-sided, giving extra attention to the

decoupling on Pin VPSI is sometimes required. Likewise,

care is required in decoupling the VPSO pin if the output is

loaded on only one of its two output pins. The general common

(COMM) and the output stage common (CMOP) are usually

grounded as shown in the Figure 57; however, the Applications

section shows how a negative supply can optionally be used.

The AD8330 is enabled by taking the ENBL pin to a logical high

(or, in all cases, the supply). The UP gain mode is enabled either

by leaving the MODE pin unconnected or taking it to a logical

high. When the opposite gain direction is needed, the MODE

pin should be grounded or driven to a logical low. The low-pass

corner of the offset loop is determined by Capacitor CHPF; this

is preferably tied to the CNTR pin, that in turn, should be

decoupled to ground. The gain interface common pin (CMGN)

is grounded, and the output magnitude control pin (VMAG) is

left unconnected, or can optionally be connected to a 500 mV

source for basic gain calibration.
