THS6043EVM Applications
3.2 Single Supply Operation
Many designs use single supply voltages, and the THS6043EVM allows single
supply operation. The THS6043EVM can be reconfigured for single supply
operation as shown in Figure 3−2. To convert to single supply operation:
- Connect ground from the power supply to both J5 (GND) and J4 (−V
CC
).
- Jumper pins 2 and 3 of JP1 together with a jumper plug. This enables
connection to a half supply voltage divider.
- Populate R4, R14, R20, and R21, with 4.99 k 1% resistors. R20 and R21
create the half supply potential (virtual ground for the stage). R4 and R14
sum this potential into the noninverting inputs of the op amps.
The half-supply virtual ground potential is also present on the
output of the op amps. No provision has been made on the EVM for
output dc-blocking capacitors. When the outputs are monitored
with equipment that has 50- inputs, 75 mW is dissipated through
R17, R18, and the input resistors of the measuring equipment.
- Remove the zero jumpers located at Z1 and Z2 and replace them with
dc-blocking capacitors.
