Chapter 1 Introduction and Description This EVM provides a platform for testing the THS4211 in 8-pin LLP (DRB) package in a noninverting, unity gain mode. It contains the high-speed op amp, a number of passive components, and various features and footprints that enable the user to experiment, test, and verify various operational amplifier circuit implementations.
Evaluation Schematic 1.1 Evaluation Schematic As delivered, the EVM has a fully functional example circuit—just add power supplies, a signal source, and monitoring instrument. See Figure 1–1 for a complete schematic diagram. EVM features include: - Wide operating supply voltage range: single supply 4.5-V to dual supply ±7.5-V operation (see the device data sheet). Single supply operation is obtained by connecting both J6 (GND) and J7 (VS-) to ground. - Nominal 50-Ω input impedance (R4).
Chapter 2 Using the EVM Figure 2-1 shows how to connect power supplies, signal source and monitoring instrument. It is recommended that the user connect the EVM as shown to avoid damage to the EVM or the op amp installed on the board. Figure 2-1.
Chapter 3 EVM Applications Example applications are presented in this chapter. These applications demonstrate the most popular circuits, but many other circuits can be constructed. The purpose of the EVM board is for the user to experiment with different circuits, exploring new and creative design techniques, which is the function of an evaluation board. 3.1 Default Configuration Figure 3-1.

Default Configuration Changing R6 to 49.9 Ω allows the EVM to connect to a 50-Ω load. This amplifier is designed to attain optimum performance driving 500-Ω loads, but 100-Ω loads can be driven.
