Chapter 1 Introduction and Description This EVM provides a platform for testing the THS4211 and THS4215 in 8-pin MSOP (DGN) and 8-pin LLP (DRB) with and without power down. 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. If the user wants to evaluate a unity gain noninverting buffer, that configuration is not recommended with this EVM.

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.

Noninverting Gain Stage If the user provides an external load, R7 may be removed, and R6 replaced with a 0-Ω jumper. The EVM then provides a gain of 2 (6 dB) at the output connector J4. A gain of 2 is often used to compensate for the voltage division effect when series and termination resistors are used for stage impedance matching. 3.2 Noninverting Gain Stage The default configuration of the EVM is a noninverting gain stage with a voltage divider on the output.
Inverting Gain Stage 3.3 Inverting Gain Stage If unity gain inverting operation is desired, the user should: - Change R6 to 0 Ω - Remove R7 - Change R4 to 0 Ω - Change R2 to 57.6 Ω (R3 in parallel with R2 equals 50 Ω for termination of the input) as shown in Figure 3-3.
