Product details
Overview
THS4505DGNR from Texas Instruments is a high-performance, fully differential amplifier optimized for driving 12-bit, 80-MSps analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in demanding signal chains. It delivers 260 MHz small-signal bandwidth, 1800 V/µs slew rate, –73 dBc third-order intermodulation distortion at 30 MHz, and output common-mode voltage control (VOCM) with ±5 V or single 5 V supply operation.
For engineers reviewing the THS4505DGNR datasheet, THS4505DGNR pinout, THS4505DGNR application, or THS4505DGNR equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases in wireless receivers and active filtering, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The THS4505DGNR implements a fully differential architecture with independent input and output common-mode control, enabling precise DC-coupled interfacing to ADCs and eliminating coupling capacitors. Its input common-mode range extends to the negative rail (–5.7 V at ±5 V supply), supporting ground-referenced single-ended sources.
It features a dedicated VOCM input that sets the differential output's average voltage with 200 MHz small-signal bandwidth and <±0.1 V default offset when left floating. Unlike the THS4504, it lacks power-down functionality-confirmed by pin assignment (PD pin is NC) and electrical characteristics tables excluding power-down parameters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal bandwidth | 260 MHz at G = 1 (±5 V supply); enables wideband baseband and IF signal conditioning up to 100 MHz 0.1-dB flatness. |
| Slew rate | 1800 V/µs (±5 V); supports full-scale 2 VPP steps in <1 ns without slewing-induced distortion. |
| IMD3 @ 30 MHz | –73 dBc (200 kHz tone spacing); meets linearity requirements for 12-bit ADCs sampling at 80 MSps with >70 dB SFDR. |
| OIP3 | 29 dBm (referenced to 50 Ω); allows direct drive of high-linearity ADC front-ends without gain-stage compression. |
| Input CM range | –5.7 V to +2.6 V (±5 V supply); accommodates rail-to-rail single-ended inputs including ground-referenced sensors. |
| VOCM bandwidth | 200 MHz (RL = 400 Ω); permits fast common-mode settling during dynamic gain or reference changes in closed-loop systems. |
| Quiescent current | 16–25 mA (±5 V); balances high-speed performance with thermal manageability in MSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package. |
Pinout & Package
THS4505DGNR is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™), offering enhanced thermal dissipation (θJA = 58.4°C/W) and improved ac performance versus SOIC-8. The PowerPAD is electrically isolated and must be soldered to PCB ground for optimal thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN− | Inverting input | Differential input node; accepts single-ended or differential signals; input impedance 10⁷ Ω || 1 pF. |
| VIN+ | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; matched to VIN− for >70 dB CMRR across 100 MHz. |
| VOCM | Output common-mode control | DC-biased input setting VOUT,CM; 25 kΩ || 1 pF input impedance; floats to ~0 V if unconnected. |
| VS+ | Positive supply | Accepts +5 V (single) or +5/+7.5 V (dual); max rating 16.5 V absolute. |
| VOUT+ | Positive differential output | Drives ADC AIN+ or transformer primary; delivers ±8 V swing into 1 kΩ load (±5 V supply). |
| VOUT− | Negative differential output | Complementary to VOUT+; output balance error <–65 dB ensures <0.2% amplitude/phase mismatch. |
| VS− | Negative supply | Required for dual-supply operation (–5 V); omitted in single-supply mode (VS− tied to GND). |
| PD | Power-down control | No internal connection (NC); THS4505 variant has no power-down capability-pin must be left unconnected or grounded. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully differential architecture | Eliminates even-order harmonics and common-mode noise; enables true differential signaling to ADCs without baluns. |
| Output common-mode control (VOCM) | Allows precise alignment of differential output midpoint to ADC reference voltage (e.g., 2.5 V), enabling DC-coupled interfaces. |
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | Supports single-ended inputs referenced to ground or negative rails-critical for sensor front-ends and legacy signal sources. |
| High OIP3 and low IMD3 | Preserves signal integrity in wideband receiver chains where adjacent-channel interference must be suppressed below –70 dBc. |
| MSOP-8 PowerPAD™ package | Reduces thermal resistance by 90% vs standard MSOP-8 (θJC = 4.7°C/W), enabling sustained 260 MHz operation at +85°C ambient. |
Applications
| Wireless Communication Receiver | High-Speed Data Acquisition |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4504DGNR | Identical pinout and AC specs, but includes functional PD pin (active-low power-down) and higher quiescent current (20–25 mA vs 16–23 mA). | Required where system-level power gating is needed (e.g., battery-powered portable instruments); not drop-in due to PD pin behavior. | Select THS4504DGNR only if power-down control is mandatory; otherwise THS4505DGNR offers lower static power and simpler layout. |
| LMH5401RTVT | Wider 4.2 GHz GBW, higher 3000 V/µs slew rate, but requires external VOCM resistor network and has narrower input CM range (–3.3 V to +1.7 V at ±5 V). | Better suited for >100 MHz IF sampling or JESD204B serializer drivers; less suitable for ground-referenced sensor interfaces. | Choose LMH5401RTVT for ultra-wideband applications beyond 260 MHz; THS4505DGNR remains optimal for cost-sensitive 12-bit ADC driver designs up to 80 MSps. |
Compared with THS4504DGNR and LMH5401RTVT, THS4505DGNR provides the best balance of proven 260 MHz linearity, rail-to-rail input flexibility, and simplified VOCM implementation for mainstream 12-bit data acquisition systems-without requiring power management logic or external bias components.

FAQ
What is the function of the PD pin on THS4505DGNR?
The PD (Power-Down) pin on THS4505DGNR is a no-connect (NC) terminal-this variant lacks power-down functionality. Unlike the THS4504, the THS4505DGNR does not respond to PD pin voltage; it must remain unconnected or grounded. This simplifies layout and eliminates power-state control overhead in always-on systems.
Can THS4505DGNR operate from a single 5-V supply?
Yes, THS4505DGNR supports single 5-V operation: connect VS+ to +5 V, VS− to GND, and set VOCM to 2.5 V (e.g., via resistor divider). In this configuration, differential output swing is ±3.3 V into 1 kΩ, and input common-mode range is –0.7 V to +2.6 V-enabling compatibility with ground-referenced sources and 2.5-V ADC references.
How does THS4505DGNR achieve low harmonic distortion at 30 MHz?
THS4505DGNR achieves –73 dBc third-harmonic distortion at 30 MHz through its fully differential topology, which inherently cancels even-order harmonics, combined with optimized internal biasing and high OIP3 (29 dBm). Measured with 2 VPP output into 800 Ω, this performance ensures >70 dB SFDR for 12-bit ADCs operating at 80 MSps without post-processing correction.
What is the recommended PCB layout practice for the PowerPAD™ on THS4505DGNR?
The MSOP-8 PowerPAD™ on THS4505DGNR must be soldered to a solid copper thermal pad connected to PCB ground plane via ≥4 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, spaced ≤1 mm apart). This reduces θJA from 58.4°C/W to <45°C/W, preventing junction temperature rise above +125°C during continuous 260 MHz operation at +85°C ambient.
Does THS4505DGNR require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, THS4505DGNR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability across all supply voltages (±5 V, ±7.5 V, 5 V, 15 V). Its small-signal frequency response shows no peaking up to 1 GHz, and phase margin exceeds 60° at unity gain-verified in TI's SLOS363D datasheet Figure 22. No external compensation components are needed for G ≥ 1 configurations.
