Product details
Overview
LMH6554LEE/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 2.8-GHz ultra-linear fully differential amplifier (FDA) designed as a high-fidelity ADC driver for 8- to 16-bit data acquisition systems. It delivers 1.8-GHz large-signal bandwidth at 2 VPP, −96 dBc HD2/−97 dBc HD3 at 75 MHz, 0.9 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and operates from ±2.5-V or single 5-V supplies in a 2.5 mm × 2.5 mm UQFN-14 package.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6554LEE/NOPB datasheet, LMH6554LEE/NOPB pinout, LMH6554LEE/NOPB application, or LMH6554LEE/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed differential driving use cases (e.g., single-ended-to-differential conversion for 16-bit ADCs), and real-world alternative part comparisons - all grounded in TI's production-grade SNOSB30Q datasheet (Rev. March 2026).
Technical Context
The LMH6554LEE/NOPB employs a proprietary differential current-mode input stage enabling gain-bandwidth independence: small-signal bandwidth remains 2.8 GHz at unity gain and sustains 1.6 GHz at AV = 4 without sacrificing flatness or distortion. Its integrated output common-mode control circuit sets VOCM independently of input common mode via the VCM pin (1 V/V gain, ±1.25 V range) and forces balanced ±OUT outputs even with single-ended input drive.
This FDA uses internal compensation optimized for RF = 200 Ω, supports enable/disable via VEN (2.5 V threshold, 15 ns switching), and achieves 16-bit linearity up to 75 MHz driving 2 VPP into 200 Ω loads. Thermal resistance is 60 °C/W (RθJA), and ESD ratings are ±2000 V HBM per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 2.8 GHz at AV = 1 - enables wideband signal conditioning before high-speed ADC sampling. |
| Large-Signal Bandwidth | 1.8 GHz at 2 VPP - supports full-scale analog input to 16-bit converters without slew-induced distortion. |
| OIP3 | 46.5 dBm at 150 MHz - ensures robust RF/IF gain block performance in multi-tone environments. |
| Harmonic Distortion | −96 dBc HD2 / −97 dBc HD3 at 75 MHz - meets dynamic range requirements for precision digitization. |
| Input Noise Density | 0.9 nV/√Hz - preserves SNR in low-amplitude, wideband sensor or IF chain amplification. |
| Supply Current | 52 mA typical at ±2.5 V - balances high-speed performance with manageable power in dense PCB layouts. |
| Enable Threshold | 2.5 V on VEN (±0.3 V tolerance) - allows direct interfacing with standard 3.3-V/5-V logic for power gating. |
Pinout & Package
LMH6554LEE/NOPB is housed in a 14-pin UQFN package (2.50 mm × 2.50 mm, 0.5-mm pitch) with wettable flanks and exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by top-side dot; pins 11 and 14 are no-connect (NC) terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive supply (pins 1, 10) | Dual connection for low-impedance +2.5 V (split) or +5 V (single-supply) routing; decoupling required near both pins. |
| V− | Negative supply (pins 3, 8) | Dual connection for −2.5 V (split) or GND (single-supply); shared return path must minimize ground bounce. |
| +IN / −IN | Differential input (pins 6, 5) | Current-mode inputs with 19 Ω differential resistance; require matched external termination (e.g., 50 Ω) for optimal CMRR. |
| +FB / −FB | Feedback nodes (pins 4, 7) | Direct connection points for external RF resistors; mismatch >0.1% degrades balance error and DC offset. |
| +OUT / −OUT | Differential output (pins 13, 12) | Low-impedance outputs capable of ±1.42 V swing into 200 Ω; require series isolation resistors when driving capacitive ADC inputs. |
| VCM | Output common-mode setpoint (pin 2) | High-impedance input referenced to mid-supply; must be bypassed with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to suppress noise coupling. |
| VEN | Enable control (pin 9) | Active-high logic input; pulls to ~2.5 V internally when floating; drives output stage into high-Z state when low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-feedback architecture | Decouples gain setting from bandwidth trade-offs - maintains 2.8 GHz SSBW across AV = 1 to 8 with fixed RF = 200 Ω. |
| Integrated VCM control | 1 V/V buffered VCM pin enables precise output common-mode alignment to ADC reference (e.g., 1.2 V), critical for DC-coupled systems. |
| Ultra-low distortion | −96 dBc HD2/−97 dBc HD3 at 75 MHz ensures <0.001% THD+N for baseband and IF signals in medical imaging or spectrum analyzers. |
| Single-ended-to-differential conversion | Validated operation with one input driven - eliminates need for baluns in DC-coupled applications like oscilloscope front-ends. |
| Thermal performance | 60 °C/W RθJA with exposed pad allows sustained 260 mW dissipation in compact layouts without forced air cooling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4561IRGET | Lower bandwidth (1.8 GHz SSBW), higher input noise (1.1 nV/√Hz), same 14-pin UQFN package. | Better DC precision (0.1 mV VOS) but reduced RF/IF linearity (OIP3 = 42 dBm @ 150 MHz). | Choose THS4561IRGET when DC accuracy and lower quiescent current (28 mA) outweigh wideband distortion requirements. |
| ADA4940-1ACPZ-R7 | Lower bandwidth (1.1 GHz SSBW), lower power (12.5 mA), SOIC-8 package (no thermal pad). | Optimized for precision instrumentation (−110 dBc HD2 @ 10 MHz) rather than RF/ADC driving. | Choose ADA4940-1ACPZ-R7 for battery-powered portable instruments needing rail-to-rail output swing and low THD at sub-50 MHz. |
Compared with THS4561IRGET and ADA4940-1ACPZ-R7, LMH6554LEE/NOPB uniquely combines 2.8-GHz bandwidth, −96 dBc HD2 at 75 MHz, and integrated VCM control - making it the only option qualified for 16-bit, >100-MSPS ADC driving with DC-coupled single-ended sources.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for LMH6554LEE/NOPB?
The absolute maximum operating junction temperature for LMH6554LEE/NOPB is 150°C, as specified in Section 5.1 of the TI SNOSB30Q datasheet. Derating is required above +125°C ambient; thermal design must ensure RθJA = 60°C/W and proper PCB copper pour under the exposed pad to maintain reliability in continuous 260-mW operation.
Can LMH6554LEE/NOPB operate from a single 5-V supply?
Yes, LMH6554LEE/NOPB supports single 5-V operation with V+ = 5 V and V− = GND. However, input common-mode range is limited (±1.25 V), so AC coupling is typically required for single-ended inputs. For DC-coupled operation or lowest distortion, split ±2.5-V supplies are recommended per Section 6.3 of the datasheet.
What is the function of the VCM pin on LMH6554LEE/NOPB?
The VCM pin on LMH6554LEE/NOPB sets the output common-mode voltage with 1 V/V gain and ±1.25 V range. It must be driven by a low-impedance reference (e.g., ADC VREF) and bypassed to ground with a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor. Any noise or ripple on VCM directly modulates the output common mode, degrading balance and distortion performance.
How does LMH6554LEE/NOPB achieve single-ended-to-differential conversion?
LMH6554LEE/NOPB achieves single-ended-to-differential conversion using its internal common-mode feedback loop: when only +IN is driven, the −OUT is actively forced to the inverse of +OUT, maintaining balance without requiring a complementary input signal. This eliminates baluns while preserving DC response, as validated in Figure 7-1 and Section 7.2.1 of the datasheet.
What external resistor tolerance is recommended for LMH6554LEE/NOPB to maintain optimal CMRR?
Texas Instruments recommends ≤0.1% tolerance for RF and RG resistors in LMH6554LEE/NOPB circuits. Mismatch >0.1% directly degrades CMRR, DC offset, and output balance error - critical for 16-bit ADC interface integrity. Section 6.3 specifies that resistor matching is the dominant factor in achieving <−64 dB balance error across frequency.
