Product details
Overview
THS4502CDGNG4 from Texas Instruments is a wideband, low-distortion fully differential amplifier with power-down capability, designed for high-fidelity signal conditioning in precision ADC driver and RF receiver chain applications. It delivers 370 MHz small-signal bandwidth, 2800 V/µs slew rate, –95 dBc third-order intermodulation distortion at 30 MHz, 51 dBm OIP3, and output common-mode voltage control (VOCM) for seamless interfacing with differential-input ADCs.
For engineers reviewing the THS4502CDGNG4 datasheet, THS4502CDGNG4 pinout, THS4502CDGNG4 application, or THS4502CDGNG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its centered input common-mode range, ±5 V to ±7.5 V dual-supply operation, 8-pin MSOP PowerPAD™ package with thermal enhancement, and verified performance up to 40 MHz for 14-bit systems.
Technical Context
The THS4502CDGNG4 employs a fully differential architecture optimized for single-ended-to-differential conversion and high-linearity preamplification. Its internal VOCM buffer enables precise setting of output common-mode level independent of gain configuration, supporting rail-to-rail output swing referenced to user-defined VOCM.
It features a dedicated power-down pin (PD) that reduces quiescent current to ≤1.2 mA while maintaining high-impedance outputs and preserving input bias characteristics. The device exhibits stable operation only below +60°C junction temperature-exceeding this threshold risks low-level oscillation per TI's application note.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal bandwidth | 370 MHz at G = +1, ±5 V supply - supports wideband IF sampling and direct-conversion receiver front-ends. |
| Slew rate | 2800 V/µs - enables clean amplification of fast transient signals without slewing-induced distortion. |
| IMD3 @ 30 MHz | –95 dBc - ensures minimal spectral regrowth in multi-tone wireless signals, critical for LTE/WiMAX baseband. |
| OIP3 @ 30 MHz | 51 dBm - provides robust linearity margin for high-dynamic-range ADC drivers operating into 50 Ω loads. |
| Input common-mode range | ±4.0 V (min) at ±5 V supply - accommodates centered input signals without clipping in bipolar signal chains. |
| Power-down quiescent current | ≤1200 µA - allows system-level power gating during idle cycles without compromising signal integrity on wake-up. |
| Output voltage swing | ±7.4 V (min) differential into 1 kΩ - delivers full-scale drive for 14-bit ADCs with ≥2.5 VPP differential input requirements. |
Pinout & Package
The THS4502CDGNG4 is housed in an 8-pin MSOP PowerPAD™ package (DGN), featuring exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation and improved ac performance. Pin 1 is VIN−, pin 2 is VIN+, pin 3 is VOCM, pin 4 is VS+, pin 5 is VOUT+, pin 6 is PD, pin 7 is VS−, and pin 8 is VOUT−.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN− / VIN+ | Differential input pair | Accepts balanced or single-ended input; centered common-mode range enables direct coupling to DAC outputs or sensor bridges. |
| VOCM | Output common-mode control input | Sets DC offset of differential output pair; accepts 0–5 V range and defaults to ~2.5 V when floating (single-supply mode). |
| VS+ / VS− | Positive/negative supply rails | Supports ±5 V, ±7.5 V, or single 5–15 V operation; PSRR >70 dB minimizes supply noise coupling to output. |
| VOUT+ / VOUT− | Differential output pair | Drives 50 Ω or 800 Ω loads; output balance error <–58 dB ensures minimal even-order distortion in ADC interface paths. |
| PD | Power-down enable input | Active-low logic control: <0.7 V disables, >2.1 V enables; turnoff delay ≤800 ns enables fast sleep/wake cycling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully differential architecture | Eliminates even-order harmonics and common-mode noise, enabling >90 dB SFDR in 14-bit ADC driver configurations. |
| Centered input common-mode range | ±3.4 V min at 85°C - allows direct connection to op-amp buffers or DACs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Output common-mode control (VOCM) | 1.02 V/V max gain with ±2 mV offset - matches typical ADC reference midpoints (e.g., 2.5 V) with <0.1% error. |
| Power-down capability | Reduces IQ from 34 mA to ≤1.2 mA - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and intermittent-sampling systems. |
| Thermally enhanced MSOP PowerPAD™ | θJA = 58.4°C/W - sustains continuous operation at ambient ≤70°C without heatsink, unlike standard SOIC variants. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4503CDGNG4 | No power-down pin; identical AC/DC specs except PD functionality removed. | Preferred where continuous operation is required and power gating is unnecessary. | Select THS4503CDGNG4 if system-level power management is handled externally and board space permits same footprint. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for reliable operation of the THS4502CDGNG4?
The THS4502CDGNG4 must be operated with junction temperature ≤60°C to prevent low-level oscillation. Exceeding this limit-even briefly-risks instability. Thermal design must ensure θJA × (PDISS) + TA stays below 60°C. At 34 mA quiescent current and ±5 V supply, power dissipation is ~340 mW; with θJA = 58.4°C/W, ambient must remain ≤40°C for safe margin. THS4502CDGNG4 datasheet Section 6.5 explicitly defines this constraint.
How does the VOCM pin function in single-supply operation of the THS4502CDGNG4?
In single-supply mode (e.g., 5 V), the VOCM pin sets the DC midpoint of the differential output pair. When left floating, it defaults to ~2.5 V-ideal for driving ADCs with 2.5 V reference. Driving VOCM with an external voltage (1–4 V) shifts output common-mode accordingly, enabling compatibility with diverse ADC input ranges. THS4502CDGNG4 maintains VOCM gain accuracy of 0.98–1.02 V/V and input bias <3 µA at 2.5 V, ensuring minimal loading on reference sources.
Is the THS4502CDGNG4 pin-compatible with the THS4503CDGNG4?
Yes-THS4502CDGNG4 and THS4503CDGNG4 share identical 8-pin MSOP PowerPAD™ footprints and pin assignments. The only functional difference is pin 6: THS4502CDGNG4 uses it as PD (power-down), while THS4503CDGNG4 leaves it as NC (no connect). No PCB changes are required for substitution, though firmware must not assert logic on pin 6 when using THS4503CDGNG4.
What load conditions achieve the specified –95 dBc IMD3 performance for the THS4502CDGNG4?
The –95 dBc third-order intermodulation distortion is measured at 30 MHz with 2 VPP differential output into RL = 800 Ω, using Rf = 392 Ω feedback and single-ended input. Performance degrades with lower load impedance: at 50 Ω, IMD3 worsens to ~–85 dBc due to increased current-dependent nonlinearity. THS4502CDGNG4 datasheet Figure 22 confirms this dependency, and layout must maintain symmetric 50 Ω traces to preserve balance and avoid degradation.
Does the THS4502CDGNG4 require external compensation capacitors for stability?
No-THS4502CDGNG4 is unity-gain stable and requires no external compensation. Its internal compensation ensures phase margin >60° across all gains (G = +1 to +10) and supply voltages (±5 V to ±7.5 V). Stability is verified per Figure 35 (open-loop gain/phase vs frequency) in the THS4502CDGNG4 datasheet, showing no peaking or ringing in transient response (Figures 27–28) under recommended layout practices including local 0.1 µF + 10 µF bypassing at VS+ and VS−.
