DESCRIPTION
The LMH6514 is a high performance, digitally
controlled variable gain amplifier (DVGA). It combines
precision gain control with a low noise, ultra-linear,
differential amplifier. Typically, the LMH6514 drives a
high performance ADC in a broad range of mixed
signal and digital communication applications such as
mobile radio and cellular base stations where
automatic gain control (AGC) is required to increase
system dynamic range. When used in conjunction
with a high speed ADC, system dynamic range can
be extended by up to 42 dB.
The LMH6514 has a differential input and output
allowing large signal swings on a single 5V supply. It
is designed to accept signals from RF elements and
maintain a terminated impedance environment. The
input impedance is 200⦠resistive. The output
impedance is either 200⦠or 400⦠and is user
selectable. A unique internal architecture allows use
with both single ended and differential input signals.
Input signals to the LMH6514 are scaled by a highly
linear, digitally controlled attenuator with seven
accurate 6 dB steps. The attenuator output provides
the input signal for a high gain, ultra linear differential
transconductor. The transconductor differential output
current can be converted into a voltage by using the
on-chip 200⦠or 400⦠loads. The transconductance
gain is 0.1 Amp/Volt resulting in a maximum voltage
gain of +32 dB when driving a 200⦠load, or 38 dB
when driving the 400⦠load.
The LMH6514 operates over the industrial
temperature range of â40°C to +85°C. The LMH6514
is available in a 16-Pin, thermally enhanced, WQFN
package.
