PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
power-down mode
The power-down mode is used when power saving is required. The power-down terminal (PD) found on the
THS414x is an active low terminal. If it is left as a no-connect terminal, the device will always stay on due to an
internal 50 k⦠resistor to VCC. The threshold voltage for this terminal is approximately 1.4 V above VCCâ. This
means that if the PD terminal is 1.4 V above VCC â, the device is active. If the PD terminal is less than 1.4 V above
VCC â, the device is off. For example, if VCC â = â5 V, then the device is on when PD reaches 3.6 V, (-5 V + 1.4
V = â3.6 V). By the same calculation, the device is off below â3.6 V. It is recommended to pull the terminal to
VCC â in order to turn the device off. The following graph shows the simplified version of the power-down circuit.
While in the power-down state, the amplifier goes into a high-impedance state. The amplifier output impedance
is typically greater than 1 M⦠in the power-down state.

Figure 33. Simplified Power-Down Circuit
Due to the similarity of the standard inverting amplifier configuration, the output impedance appears to be very
low while in the power-down state. This is because the feedback resistor (Rf) and the gain resistor (R(g)) are
still connected to the circuit. Therefore, a current path is allowed between the input of the amplifier and the output
of the amplifier. An example of the closed-loop output impedance is shown in Figure 34.
