An alternate single-ended to differential topology em-
ploying the LT6231 followed by the LT6201 is shown in
Figure8a. This topology enables additional band-limiting
of the wideband noise of the single-ended to differential
conversion circuit using lowpass filters A without affect-
ing the settling at the inputs of the LTC2389-16 during
acquisition. This circuit achieves the full ADC data sheet
SNR specifications, as shown in the FFT plot in Figure 8b.
