Driving Circuit
Two example driving circuit configurations are shown in Figure 116 and Figure 117—one optimized for low
bandwidth and the other one for high bandwidth to support higher input frequencies. In Figure 116, an external
R-C-R filter with 3.3pF is used to help absorb sampling glitches. The R-C-R filter limits the bandwidth of the drive
circuit, making it suitable for low input frequencies (up to 250MHz). Transformers such as ADT1-1WT or WBC1-1
can be used up to 250MHz.
For higher input frequencies, the R-C-R filter can be dropped. Together with the lower series resistors (5Ω to
10Ω), this drive circuit provides higher bandwidth to support frequencies up to 500MHz (as shown in Figure 117).
A transmission line transformer such as ADTL2-18 can be used.
Note that both the drive circuits have been terminated by 50Ω near the ADC side. The termination is
accomplished by a 25Ω resistor from each input to the 0.95V common-mode (VCM) from the device. This
termination allows the analog inputs to be biased around the required common-mode voltage.
