APPLICATION INFORMATION
The THS7530 is designed for nominal 5-V power Figure 20 through Figure 24 show some basic circuit
supply from V
S+
to V
S–
. configurations.
The amplifier has fully differential inputs, V
IN+
and
V
IN–
, and fully differential outputs, V
OUT+
and V
OUT–
The inputs are high impedance and outputs are low
impedance. External resistors are recommended for
impedance matching and termination purposes.
The inputs and outputs can be dc-coupled, but for
best performance, the input and output
common-mode voltage should be maintained at the
midpoint between the two supply pins. The output
common-mode voltage is controlled by the voltage
applied to V
OCM
. Left unterminated, V
OCM
is set to
midsupply by internal resistors. A 0.1-µF bypass

and with Typical 50-Ω RF Test Equipment
ground to reduce common-mode noise. The input
common-mode voltage defaults to midrail when left
unconnected. For voltages other than midrail,
V
OCM
must be biased by external means. V
IN+
and
V
IN–
both require a nominal 30-µA bias current for
proper operation. Therefore, ensure equal input
impedance at each input to avoid generating an offset
voltage that varies with gain.
Voltage applied from V
G–
to V
G+
controls the gain of
the part with 38.8-dB/V gain slope. The input can be
differential or single ended. V
G–
must be maintained
within –0.6 V and +0.8 V of V
S–
for proper operation.
The negative gain input should typically be tied

AC-Coupled Differential Output
V
CL+
and V
CL–
are inputs that limit the output voltage
swing of the amplifier. The voltages applied set an
absolute limit on the voltages at the output. Input
voltages at V
CL+
and V
CL–
clamp the output, ensuring
that neither output exceeds those values.
The power-down input is a TTL compatible input,
referenced to the negative supply voltage. A logic low
puts the THS7530 in power-saving mode. In
power-down mode the part consumes less than 1-mA
current, the output goes high impedance, and a high
amount of isolation is maintained between the input
and output.

Power-supply bypass capacitors are required for

proper operation. A 6.8-µF tantalum bulk capacitor is
recommended if the amplifier is located far from the
power supply and may be shared among other
devices. A ceramic 0.1-µF capacitor is recommended
within 0.1-in of the device power pin. The ceramic
capacitors should be located on the same layer as
the amplifier to eliminate the use of vias between the
capacitors and the power pin.
