APPLICATION INFORMATION
APPLICATIONS
The following circuits show application information for
the THS4511. For simplicity, power-supply
decoupling capacitors are not shown in these
diagrams. For more detail on the use and operation
of fully-differential operational amplifiers refer to
application report Fully-Differential Amplifiers
(SLOA054).
Differential Input to Differential Output Amplifier
The THS4511 is a fully-differential operational
amplifier, and can be used to amplify differential input
signals to differential output signals. A basic block

Input Common-Mode Voltage Range
The input common-model voltage of a fully-differential
operational amplifier is the voltage at the (+) and (–)
input pins of the operational amplifier.
It is important to not violate the input common-mode
voltage range (V
ICR
) of the operational amplifier.
Assuming the operational amplifier is in linear
operation the voltage across the input pins is only a
few millivolts at most. So finding the voltage at one
input pin determines the input common-mode voltage
of the operational amplifier.
Treating the negative input as a summing node, the
voltage is given by Equation 1:

As the gain of the operational amplifier increases, the

The THS4511 can be used to amplify and convert
single-ended input signals to differential output
signals. A basic block diagram of the circuit is shown
in Figure 44 (CM input not shown). The gain of the
