Product details
Overview
LMH6552MAX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 1.5-GHz fully differential current-feedback amplifier designed as a high-fidelity ADC driver for 14-bit systems like the ADC14DS105, delivering 86 dBc SFDR and 74 dBc SNR up to 40 MHz. It supports single-ended-to-differential conversion, operates from ±2.5 V to ±5 V supplies, and features 3800-V/µs slew rate and 10-ns 0.1% settling time.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6552MAX/NOPB datasheet, LMH6552MAX/NOPB pinout, LMH6552MAX/NOPB application, or LMH6552MAX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output common-mode control range (±3.8 V), −92 dBc HD2 at 20 MHz, 450-MHz 0.1-dB flatness, and SOIC-8 thermal resistance (150°C/W).
Technical Context
The LMH6552MAX/NOPB uses a proprietary differential current-mode input stage enabling stable operation at gains >1 without sacrificing bandwidth flatness or harmonic distortion. Its integrated common-mode feedback loop allows independent control of output common-mode voltage (VCM) while maintaining precise differential gain accuracy.
It supports both AC- and DC-coupled inputs and delivers full performance across supply voltages from ±2.5 V to ±5 V, with small-signal bandwidth degrading from 1500 MHz at ±5 V to 1100 MHz at ±2.5 V - directly tied to transimpedance gain and power supply headroom.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-Signal BW | 1500 MHz at ±5 V, AV = 1 - enables direct RF/IF signal amplification without intermediate stages |
| Slew Rate | 3800 V/µs - supports clean 2-V step response with 600-ps rise/fall time |
| HD2 @ 20 MHz | −92 dBc - ensures minimal even-order distortion in baseband and IF sampling applications |
| 0.1-dB Flatness | 450 MHz - maintains amplitude fidelity across wideband video, communications, and test equipment signals |
| Supply Range | ±2.5 V to ±5 V (4.5–12 V total) - compatible with both low-voltage portable and high-performance bench systems |
| Enable Time | 15 ns - allows fast power cycling in time-gated or burst-mode signal chains |
| Input RIN | 15 Ω differential - matches standard 50-Ω source impedances with minimal reflection when properly terminated |
Pinout & Package
The LMH6552MAX/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size, with exposed die attach pad (DAP) for enhanced thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: −IN | Inverting Input | Differential current-mode input node; requires matched termination for optimal CMRR |
| 2: VCM | Output Common-Mode Control | Analog input setting output common-mode voltage; 0.995–1.012 V/V gain with ±3.8 V range |
| 3: V+ | Positive Supply | Accepts +2.5 V to +5 V; bypassing critical for high-frequency PSRR above 100 MHz |
| 4: +OUT | Non-Inverting Output | High-speed differential output; 14.8–15.4 VPP swing at ±5 V with 500-Ω load |
| 5: −OUT | Inverting Output | Complementary differential output; balance error <−60 dB below 1 MHz ensures ADC input symmetry |
| 6: V− | Negative Supply | Accepts −2.5 V to −5 V; must be symmetric to V+ for optimal distortion performance |
| 7: EN | Enable/Shutdown Control | Active-high logic input; 3-V threshold at ±5 V, 0.5-V threshold at ±2.5 V |
| 8: +IN | Non-Inverting Input | Differential current-mode input node; paired with Pin 1 for balanced signal injection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Differential current-feedback architecture | Enables stable gain ≥2 without peaking or phase margin loss, unlike voltage-feedback alternatives |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4561IRGT | Lower 1.1-GHz SSBW, 2000-V/µs slew rate, no integrated VCM control - requires external feedback network | Best suited for cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth ADC drivers where VCM is fixed or externally managed | Choose THS4561IRGT when supply headroom is constrained to ±2.75 V and VCM flexibility is not required |
| ADA4940-1ARZ | 1.4-GHz SSBW, 2900-V/µs slew, integrated VCM control, but higher 2.1-nV/√Hz input noise vs. LMH6552's 1.1 nV/√Hz | Preferred for precision low-noise applications where SFDR >88 dBc is less critical than SNR optimization | Choose ADA4940-1ARZ when driving 16-bit ADCs with narrowband signals and tighter noise budgets |
Compared with THS4561IRGT and ADA4940-1ARZ, the LMH6552MAX/NOPB uniquely combines 1.5-GHz bandwidth, 3800-V/µs slew rate, and integrated VCM control - making it optimal for high-SFDR, wideband ADC driving where layout simplicity and timing fidelity are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum small-signal bandwidth of the LMH6552MAX/NOPB?
The LMH6552MAX/NOPB achieves a 1500-MHz −3-dB small-signal bandwidth at ±5 V supply, AV = 1, and RL = 1 kΩ. Bandwidth scales with supply voltage: it drops to 1100 MHz at ±2.5 V under identical conditions. This voltage-dependent bandwidth stems from the current-feedback architecture's transimpedance gain dependency on supply headroom.
Does the LMH6552MAX/NOPB support single-ended input configurations?
Yes, the LMH6552MAX/NOPB supports single-ended-to-differential conversion using standard resistor networks (e.g., RF = RG = 357 Ω). The datasheet provides verified schematics and performance data for this configuration, including 450-MHz 0.1-dB flatness and −92 dBc HD2 at 20 MHz with single-ended input.
What is the function of the VCM pin on the LMH6552MAX/NOPB?
The VCM pin on the LMH6552MAX/NOPB sets the output common-mode voltage independently of the input common-mode range. It accepts a DC voltage from ±3.8 V and controls the average of +OUT and −OUT with 0.995–1.012 V/V gain, enabling seamless interfacing with ADCs requiring specific input common-mode levels.
How does the enable pin (EN) operate on the LMH6552MAX/NOPB?
The EN pin on the LMH6552MAX/NOPB is an active-high shutdown control with voltage thresholds dependent on supply: 3 V minimum at ±5 V operation and 0.5 V minimum at ±2.5 V. Enable/disable transitions occur in 15 ns, and shutdown current is 500–600 µA - allowing rapid power gating in burst-mode systems.
Can the LMH6552MAX/NOPB drive 50-Ω differential loads directly?
No, the LMH6552MAX/NOPB is not specified to drive 50-Ω differential loads (i.e., 25 Ω per side) continuously. Its linear output current is ±70 mA at ±5 V, limiting safe differential swing to ≤14.8 VPP into 500-Ω loads. For 50-Ω systems, external 1:4 impedance transformation or buffering is required to avoid distortion and thermal overload.
