Product details
Overview
LT6600IS8-10 from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fully differential amplifier with integrated 4th-order 10MHz Chebyshev lowpass filter, designed for antialiasing and DAC smoothing in high-speed data acquisition systems. It delivers 82dB SNR at 3V supply with 2VP-P output, supports programmable gain via two external resistors, and operates from single 3V/5V or dual ±5V supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT6600IS8-10 datasheet, LT6600IS8-10 pinout, LT6600IS8-10 application, or LT6600IS8-10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 10MHz cutoff, input-referred noise of 56μVRMS (10kHz–10MHz), differential distortion performance (–88dBc 2nd harmonic @1MHz), output common mode voltage control via VOCM, and SO-8 package compatibility with industrial temperature range (–40°C to 85°C).
Technical Context
The LT6600IS8-10 integrates a proprietary differential amplifier stage followed by a 4th-order lowpass filter with 0.5dB passband ripple and precisely trimmed 10MHz cutoff. Its internal architecture avoids external precision components while maintaining low distortion: –88dBc 2nd harmonic and –97dBc 3rd harmonic at 1MHz with 2VP-P output into 800Ω.
It features independent control of first-stage common mode (via VMID) and second-stage common mode (via VOCM), enabling flexible level-shifting for ADC reference alignment. The device achieves stable operation with 3V supply and maintains 82dB signal-to-noise ratio across the full industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Filter Cutoff Frequency | 10MHz - fixed internal cutoff with 0.5dB Chebyshev passband ripple, eliminating need for external filter tuning. |
| Input-Referred Noise | 56μVRMS (10kHz–10MHz) - enables high-resolution digitization of small differential signals without SNR degradation. |
| Distortion @ 1MHz | –88dBc (2nd), –97dBc (3rd) - ensures clean spectral purity for baseband and IF sampling applications. |
| Supply Voltage Range | Single 3V or 5V; dual ±5V - supports low-power portable instrumentation and legacy 5V systems alike. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments without derating. |
| Differential Output Swing | 3.85VP-P (3V supply), 5.0VP-P (5V supply) - sufficient headroom for driving 12-bit+ SAR and pipeline ADCs. |
| Common Mode Rejection | 61dB - maintains accuracy when interfacing with noisy mixed-signal PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
LT6600IS8-10 uses an 8-lead plastic SO (SO-8) package with exposed lead frame for thermal enhancement. Pin 6 is fused to the lead frame to improve heat dissipation to PCB ground planes.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN+) | Differential Input Positive | Accepts input through external RIN; DC gain = 402Ω/RIN. Requires matched external resistor on IN– for balanced operation. |
| 2 (VOCM) | Output Common Mode Reference | High-impedance input setting average voltage at OUT+ and OUT–; bypass with 0.01μF ceramic capacitor. |
| 3 (V–) | Negative Supply Rail | Ground reference for single-supply operation; must be connected to system ground or negative rail. |
| 4 (OUT–) | Differential Output Negative | Delivers filtered, amplified inverted signal; capable of driving 100Ω load to AC ground. |
| 5 (OUT+) | Differential Output Positive | Delivers filtered, amplified non-inverted signal; paired with OUT– for true differential signaling. |
| 6 (V+) | Positive Supply Rail | Connect to 3V or 5V; requires 0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 7 (VMID) | Internal Mid-Supply Bias Node | Internally biased at VS/2; must be bypassed to V– with 0.01μF capacitor for single-supply stability. |
| 8 (IN–) | Differential Input Negative | Complements IN+; identical external RIN required for gain accuracy and CMRR optimization. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Antialiasing Filter | 4th-order 10MHz lowpass eliminates need for discrete RC or active filters, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity. |
| Programmable Differential Gain | Set via two identical external RIN resistors (e.g., 402Ω → unity gain); avoids laser trimming or digital calibration. |
| Adjustable Output Common Mode | VOCM pin allows precise alignment of differential output midpoint to ADC reference voltage (e.g., 1.65V for 3.3V ADCs). |
| Low-Voltage Operation | Full performance at 3V supply enables battery-powered test equipment and portable medical devices. |
| Industrial Temperature Grade | Specified over –40°C to +85°C with no derating - suitable for base station RF front-ends and factory automation controllers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar differential amplifier + lowpass filter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT6600IS8-5 | 5MHz cutoff frequency; same SO-8 package and industrial temp grade; lower passband gain flatness tolerance (±0.1dB vs ±0.3dB at 10MHz). | Optimized for sub-10MHz bandwidth systems (e.g., audio test, legacy DAQ); not suitable for 10MHz+ Nyquist zones. | Select when system sampling rate ≤20MSPS and alias rejection above 5MHz is sufficient. |
| LT6600IS8-20 | 20MHz cutoff; higher distortion (–74dBc 2nd @5MHz); same pinout and VOCM/VMID control architecture. | Suitable for wider-bandwidth applications (e.g., broadband spectrum analyzers, high-speed oscilloscope front-ends) where 10MHz filtering is insufficient. | Choose when anti-aliasing must extend beyond 10MHz and SNR >75dB remains acceptable. |
Compared with LT6600IS8-5 and LT6600IS8-20, the LT6600IS8-10 provides the optimal balance of alias rejection at 10MHz Nyquist zones, low distortion for high-fidelity signal capture, and industrial-grade reliability-making it the preferred choice for 40–65MSPS data converters in telecom and medical systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LT6600IS8-10?
The LT6600IS8-10 is specified for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C. This industrial temperature grade is verified across all electrical parameters including gain flatness, distortion, and noise performance-ensuring reliable function in base station cabinets, factory-floor controllers, and portable diagnostic equipment without thermal derating.
How is differential gain set on the LT6600IS8-10?
Differential gain on the LT6600IS8-10 is set by two identical external resistors (RIN) connected between IN+ and IN– and the signal source. The gain equals 402Ω/RIN; for example, 402Ω yields unity gain, 201Ω yields 2×, and 100Ω yields 4×. Matching tolerance of RIN directly impacts CMRR and gain accuracy-1% resistors are recommended.
Can the LT6600IS8-10 operate from a single 3V supply?
Yes, the LT6600IS8-10 is fully characterized and specified for single 3V operation. It delivers 82dB SNR and –88dBc 2nd harmonic distortion at 1MHz with 2VP-P output under 3V supply. VMID must be bypassed to V– with ≥0.01μF ceramic capacitor, and VOCM should be set ≤1.5V to maintain linearity.
What is the purpose of the VMID pin on the LT6600IS8-10?
The VMID pin on the LT6600IS8-10 provides the internal mid-supply bias voltage for the first amplifier stage's output common mode. It must be bypassed to V– with a 0.01μF ceramic capacitor in single-supply configurations. Driving VMID externally allows overriding the internal divider to optimize input common mode range or reduce DC current paths.
Does the LT6600IS8-10 require external passive components for basic operation?
Yes-the LT6600IS8-10 requires two matched external RIN resistors for gain programming, a 0.01μF capacitor on VOCM, a 0.01μF capacitor on VMID, and a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between V+ and V–. These components are mandatory for stable operation, noise control, and common mode management; omission degrades distortion, SNR, and thermal performance.
