TOTAL DRIVER POWER FOR xDSL
APPLICATIONS
The total internal power dissipation for the OPA2674 in an
xDSL line driver application will be the sum of the quies-
cent power and the output stage power. The OPA2674
holds a relatively constant quiescent current versus supply
voltage—giving a power contribution that is simply the
quiescent current times the supply voltage used (the sup-
ply voltage will be greater than the solution given in Equa-
tion 10). The total output stage power may be computed
with reference to Figure 9.

Figure 9. Output Stage Power Model
The two output stages used to drive the load of Figure 7
can be seen as an H-Bridge in Figure 9. The average cur-
rent drawn from the supply into this H-Bridge and load will

be the peak current in the load given by Equation 8 divided
by the crest factor (CF) for the xDSL modulation. This total
power from the supply is then reduced by the power in RT
to leave the power dissipated internal to the drivers in the
four output stage transistors. That power is simply the tar-
get line power used in Equation 2 plus the power lost in the
matching elements (RM). In the examples here, a perfect
match is targeted giving the same power in the matching
elements as in the load. The output stage power is then set
by Equation 11.

For the ADSL CPE upstream driver design of Figure 5, the
peak current is 128mA for a signal that requires a crest fac-
tor of 5.33 with a target line power of 13dBm into 100Ω
(20mW). With a typical quiescent current of 18mA and a
nominal supply voltage of +12V, the total internal power
dissipation for the solution of Figure 5 will be:

DESIGN-IN TOOLS
DEMONSTRATION FIXTURES
Two printed circuit boards (PCBs) are available to assist
in the initial evaluation of circuit performance using the
OPA2674 in its two package options. Both of these are of-
fered free of charge as unpopulated PCBs, delivered with
a user’s guide. The summary information for these fixtures
is shown in Table 2.

MACROMODELS AND APPLICATIONS
SUPPORT
Computer simulation of circuit performance using SPICE
is often useful when analyzing the performance of analog
circuits and systems. This is particularly true for video and
RF amplifier circuits where parasitic capacitance and in-
ductance can have a major effect on circuit performance.
A SPICE model for the OPA2674 is available through the
