Low-Power Applications and the Effects of
Resistor Values on Bandwidth
For low-power operation, it may be necessary to
increase the gain setting resistors values to limit
current consumption and not load the source. Using
larger value resistors lowers the bandwidth of the
THS4521, THS4522, and THS4524 family as a result
of the interactions between the resistors, the device
parasitic capacitance, and printed circuit board (PCB)
parasitic capacitance. Figure 64 shows the
small-signal frequency response with 1-kΩ, 10-kΩ,
and 100-kΩ resistors for RF, RG, and RL (impedance
is assumed to typically increase for all three resistors
in low-power applications).

Frequency Response Variation due to
Package Options
Users can see variations in the small-signal (VOUT =
100 mVPP) frequency response between the available
package options for the THS4521, THS4522, and
THS4524 family as a result of parasitic elements
associated with each package and board layout
changes. Figure 65 shows the variance measured in
the lab; this variance is to be expected even when
using a good layout.
