S-Parameter, Slew Rate, Transient Response, Set-
tling Time, Output Impedance, Overdrive, Output
Voltage, and Turn-On/Off Time
The circuit shown in Figure 40 is used to measure
s-parameters, slew rate, transient response, settling
time, output impedance, overdrive recovery, output
voltage swing, and turn-on/turn-off times of the ampli-
fier. For output impedance, the signal is injected at
V_OUT with V_IN left open and the drop across the 49.9
Ω resistor is used to calculate the impedance seen
looking into the amplifier’s output.
Because S₂₁ is measured single-ended at the load
with 50-Ω double termination, add 12 dB to refer to
the amplifier’s output as a differential signal.

CM Input
The circuit shown in Figure 41 is used to measure the
frequency response and input impedance of the CM
input. Frequency response is measured single-ended

at V_OUT+ or V_OUT– with the input injected at V_IN, R_CM =
0 Ω and R_CMT = 49.9 Ω. The input impedance is
measured with R_CM = 49.9 Ω with R_CMT = open, and
calculated by measuring the voltage drop across R_CM
to determine the input current.
