Product details
Overview
LMH6702MAX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 1.7-GHz current-feedback operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low harmonic distortion (−100 dBc HD2, −96 dBc HD3 at 5 MHz, SOT-23), 3100 V/µs slew rate, and 1.83 nV/√Hz input voltage noise - deployed as a high-fidelity analog front-end driver for flash ADCs in radar receivers and high-resolution video systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6702MAX/NOPB datasheet, LMH6702MAX/NOPB pinout, LMH6702MAX/NOPB application, or LMH6702MAX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 720-MHz full-power bandwidth at 2-VPP, −67 dBc intermodulation distortion at 75 MHz, and package-dependent distortion performance (SOT-23 vs SOIC).
Technical Context
The LMH6702MAX/NOPB uses current-feedback architecture with unity-gain stability and bandwidth largely set by feedback resistor value (optimized at 237 Ω). Its VIP10™ complementary bipolar process enables simultaneous high speed and low distortion without external compensation.
Distortion performance is highly sensitive to layout: supply decoupling ground return separation, bonding wire length (SOT-23 improves HD2/HD3 over SOIC), and CSS capacitor placement across supplies directly impact measured −100 dBc HD2 at 5 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| −3-dB Bandwidth | 1.7 GHz at 0.5 VPP output - supports wideband IF and RF signal conditioning up to L-band |
| Slew Rate | 3100 V/µs - enables clean 2-V step response in 13.4 ns with 0.1% settling, critical for ADC sampling fidelity |
| 2nd Harmonic Distortion | −100 dBc at 5 MHz, RL = 100 Ω (SOT-23) - preserves SFDR in high-dynamic-range data acquisition |
| Input Voltage Noise | 1.83 nV/√Hz >1 MHz - minimizes added noise floor when driving precision ADC inputs |
| Supply Current | 12.5 mA typical at ±5 V - balances power efficiency with ultra-wideband performance |
| Output Current | 80 mA - drives 100-Ω loads directly, supporting low-impedance transmission lines and ADC input termination |
| Intermodulation Distortion | −67 dBc at 75 MHz, two-tone - maintains signal purity in communication receiver IF stages |
Pinout & Package
LMH6702MAX/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size, with pins 1, 5, and 8 internally unconnected (NC). The device uses standard op amp pinout: Pin 2 = inverting input (−IN), Pin 3 = non-inverting input (+IN), Pin 4 = negative supply (V−), Pin 6 = output (OUT), Pin 7 = positive supply (V+).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 8 | No connection (NC) | Internally unconnected - must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice; no electrical function |
| 2 | Inverting input (−IN) | Current-summing node in CFB topology; sets closed-loop gain with feedback resistor (237 Ω recommended) |
| 3 | Non-inverting input (+IN) | High-impedance input (1.4 MΩ, 1.6 pF); used for non-inverting configurations and biasing reference points |
| 4 | Negative supply (V−) | Accepts −4 V to −6 V; requires low-ESR decoupling (6.8 µF + 0.01 µF) referenced to dedicated ground plane |
| 6 | Output (OUT) | Capable of ±3.5 V swing into 100 Ω; drives ADC inputs directly but requires series resistor (RS) for capacitive load stabilization |
| 7 | Positive supply (V+) | Accepts +4 V to +6 V; decoupling identical to V−; CSS capacitor across supplies reduces HD2 coupling via bond wires |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-feedback architecture | Enables 1.7-GHz small-signal bandwidth with minimal gain dependency - unlike voltage-feedback op amps, bandwidth remains stable from AV = −1 to +10 |
| Ultra-low distortion packaging | SOT-23 variant achieves −100 dBc HD2 at 5 MHz due to shorter internal bond wires; SOIC variant shows −87 dBc under identical conditions |
| Optimized feedback network | 237-Ω feedback resistor delivers optimal pulse response and distortion; lower values cause ringing, higher values reduce bandwidth |
| Capacitive load drive support | Stable into ADC input capacitance when series resistor (RS) is used; RS value selected from CL vs settling time curves (e.g., ~25 Ω for 5 pF) |
| Low-noise, high-speed DC coupling | 1.83 nV/√Hz input noise + DC-coupled path enables baseband-to-RF signal chain integrity without AC coupling artifacts |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar wideband current-feedback op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6703MA/NOPB | Higher supply current (15 mA), improved HD2 (−105 dBc @5 MHz), same SOIC-8 package | Better distortion at cost of 20% higher power; suited for metrology-grade ADC drivers where power is secondary | Select LMH6703MA/NOPB only if −105 dBc HD2 is required and thermal headroom allows +3 mA per channel |
| THS3201DGN | Lower bandwidth (1.8 GHz small-signal but only 400 MHz full-power), higher noise (2.1 nV/√Hz), different pinout (MSOP-8) | Less suitable for 2-VPP IF amplification above 400 MHz; requires PCB redesign due to non-pin-compatible layout | Consider THS3201DGN only for space-constrained designs accepting reduced full-power bandwidth and higher noise |
Compared with LMH6702MAX/NOPB, LMH6703MA/NOPB offers superior distortion at higher quiescent current, while THS3201DGN trades bandwidth headroom and noise performance for smaller footprint - neither is pin-compatible, and both require revalidation of feedback network and layout.

FAQ
What is the recommended feedback resistor value for LMH6702MAX/NOPB?
The LMH6702MAX/NOPB is optimized for a 237-Ω feedback resistor in both inverting and non-inverting configurations. Using this value ensures optimal pulse response, minimal ringing, and best harmonic distortion performance. Lower values (e.g., <200 Ω) increase peaking and instability; higher values (e.g., >270 Ω) reduce bandwidth and degrade settling behavior. The LMH6702MAX/NOPB datasheet specifies 237 Ω as the reference design point across all key AC performance graphs.
Does LMH6702MAX/NOPB support single-supply operation?
No, LMH6702MAX/NOPB is specified only for dual-supply operation across ±4 V to ±6 V. It does not support true single-supply use (e.g., 0 V to +10 V) because its input common-mode range is limited to ±2.2 V and output swing is asymmetric near rail. Attempting single-supply biasing violates recommended operating conditions and degrades distortion, bandwidth, and DC accuracy. For single-supply applications, consider TI's THS3491 or OPA695 instead of LMH6702MAX/NOPB.
How does package type affect distortion performance of LMH6702MAX/NOPB?
Package type significantly impacts harmonic distortion: the SOT-23 variant achieves −100 dBc HD2 at 5 MHz, while the SOIC-8 variant (LMH6702MAX/NOPB) measures −87 dBc under identical conditions. This 13 dB difference arises from shorter internal bond wires in SOT-23, reducing supply-to-input coupling. Layout practices (e.g., split ground planes, CSS capacitor) further modulate this effect. Therefore, LMH6702MAX/NOPB's SOIC package delivers excellent but not maximum possible distortion performance.
Can LMH6702MAX/NOPB drive ADC inputs directly without external components?
No - LMH6702MAX/NOPB requires a series resistor (RS) between its output and the ADC input to suppress ringing caused by ADC input capacitance. Typical RS values range from 15 Ω to 35 Ω depending on load capacitance (e.g., 25 Ω for 5 pF). Direct connection risks overshoot, prolonged settling, and degraded SNR. The LMH6702MAX/NOPB datasheet Figure 11 provides RS vs CL curves, and Application Note SNOA365 confirms this requirement for all current-feedback op amps driving capacitive loads.
What is the maximum safe output current for LMH6702MAX/NOPB?
The LMH6702MAX/NOPB delivers up to 80 mA continuous output current into resistive loads, as confirmed in its Electrical Characteristics table. However, sustained 80 mA operation requires adherence to thermal limits: at ±5 V supply, junction temperature must remain ≤150°C. With RθJA = 133°C/W (SOIC), power dissipation >375 mW (e.g., ±3.5 V into 100 Ω = 122.5 mW per rail) is permissible only with adequate board copper and airflow. Exceeding 80 mA risks current limiting or thermal shutdown, so LMH6702MAX/NOPB should not be operated beyond this spec under any condition.
