3 Description
The THS3217 combines the key signal-chain
components required to interface with a
complementary-current output, digital-to-analog
converter (DAC). The flexibility provided by this two-
stage amplifier system delivers the low distortion, dc-
coupled, differential to single-ended signal processing
required by a wide range of systems. The input stage
buffers the DAC resistive termination, and converts
the signal from differential to single-ended with a
fixed gain of 2 V/V. The differential to single-ended
output is available externally for direct use, and can
also be connected through an RLC filter or attenuator
to the input of an internal output power stage (OPS).
The wideband, current-feedback, output power stage
provides all pins externally for flexible gain setting.
An internal 2×1 multiplexer (mux) to the output power
stage noninverting input provides an easy means to
select between the internal differential-to-single-
ended stage (D2S) output or an external input.
An optional on-chip midsupply buffer provides a
wideband, low-output-impedance source for biasing
during single-supply operation through the signal-path
stages. This feature provides very simple biasing for
single-supply, ac-coupled applications operating up to
a maximum 15.8-V supply. An external input to this
buffer allows for a dc error-correction loop, or a
simple output dc offset feature.
A companion device, the THS3215, provides the
same functional features at lower quiescent power
and bandwidth. The THS3217 and the THS3215
support the emerging high-speed Texas Instruments
DACs for AWG applications, such as the DAC38J82.
