methods available to compensate, which follow:
Terminating a Single-Ended Input
This section describes the five steps that properly terminate a
single-ended input to the ADA4930-1/ADA4930-2. Assume a
system gain of 1, R
F1
= R
F2
= 301 Ω, an input source with an open-
circuit output voltage of 2 V p-p, and a source resistance of 50 Ω.
Figure 46 shows this circuit.
Add R

The first compensation method is used in the Diff Amp
Calculator™ tool. Using the second compensation method,
R
G2
= 160.498 Ω and R

= 160.498 − 26.66 = 133.837 .
The modified circuit is shown in Figure 49.

2. Add a termination resistor, R
T
. To match the 50 Ω source
resistance, R
T
is added. Because R

Figure 49. Thevenin Equivalent with Matched Gain Resistors
Figure 49 presents an easily manageable circuit with matched
feedback loops that can be easily evaluated.
5. The modified gain resistor, R
G1
, changes the input impedance.
Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 several times using the modified
value of R
G1
from the previous iteration until the value of
R
T
does not change from the previous iteration. After three
additional iterations, the change in R
G1
is less than 0.1%.
The final circuit is shown in Figure 50 with the closest
0.5% resistor values.
