APPLICATION INFORMATION
RESISTOR MATCHING
Resistor matching is important in fully differential amplifiers. The balance of the output on the reference voltage
depends on matched ratios of the resistors. CMRR, PSRR, and cancellation of the second harmonic distortion
will diminish if resistor mismatch occurs. Therefore, it is recommended to use 1% tolerance resistors or better to
keep the performance optimized.
VOCM sets the dc level of the output signals. If no voltage is applied to the VOCM pin, it will be set to the midrail
voltage internally defined as:
ǒVCC)Ǔ ) ǒVCC–Ǔ
2
In the differential mode, the VOCM on the two outputs cancel each other. Therefore, the output in the differential
mode is the same as the input in the gain of 1. VOCM has a high bandwidth capability up to the typical operation
range of the amplifier. For the prevention of noise going through the device, use a 0.1 µF capacitor on the VOCM
pin as a bypass capacitor. Figure 21 shows the simplified diagram of the THS414x.
