Product details
Overview
THS4505DRG4 from Texas Instruments is a high-linearity, fully differential amplifier optimized for driving 12-bit, 80-MSps analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). It delivers 260 MHz small-signal bandwidth, 1800 V/µs slew rate, and –73 dBc third-order intermodulation distortion at 30 MHz under ±5 V supply - enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in RF receiver chains and active filtering applications.
For engineers reviewing the THS4505DRG4 datasheet, THS4505DRG4 pinout, THS4505DRG4 application, or THS4505DRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its input common-mode range extending to the negative rail, VOCM-controlled output common-mode voltage, differential output drive capability up to ±7.4 V into 1 kΩ, and SOIC-8 packaging with PowerPAD™ thermal enhancement.
Technical Context
The THS4505DRG4 implements a fully differential architecture with independent input and output common-mode control paths. Its input stage supports single-ended-to-differential conversion while maintaining >70 dB CMRR across 0°C to +85°C, and its VOCM terminal enables precise setting of output common-mode voltage with 200 MHz small-signal bandwidth and ±0.1 V default offset when floating.
Unlike the pin-compatible THS4504, the THS4505DRG4 omits power-down functionality - eliminating PD pin dependency and simplifying biasing in continuous-operation systems. It operates from ±5 V to ±7.5 V dual supplies or 5 V to 15 V single supply, with quiescent current ranging from 9 mA (min) to 25 mA (max) over temperature.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4504DRG4 | Identical pinout and AC specs, but includes functional PD pin for power-down mode (800 µA quiescent in shutdown) | Required where intermittent operation or low-power sleep states are mandated (e.g., battery-powered test equipment) | Select THS4504DRG4 only if power-down functionality is explicitly needed; THS4505DRG4 offers simpler biasing and identical performance in always-on systems |
| LMH5401IRGT | Higher bandwidth (1.8 GHz), higher OIP3 (+38 dBm), but requires external VOCM resistor network and has narrower input common-mode range | Better suited for >100 MHz IF sampling or mmWave receiver front-ends where THS4505DRG4 bandwidth is limiting | Choose LMH5401IRGT when >500 MHz small-signal bandwidth or >35 dBm OIP3 is required; THS4505DRG4 remains optimal for cost-sensitive 12-bit, 80-MSps ADC interfaces |
Compared with THS4504DRG4, THS4505DRG4 removes power-down complexity while retaining full linearity and bandwidth - ideal for fixed-configuration signal chains. Versus LMH5401IRGT, it trades raw RF performance for integrated VOCM control, rail-inclusive input range, and lower system-level BOM count.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for THS4505DRG4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for THS4505DRG4 is ±8.25 V (dual) or 16.5 V (single), but the recommended operating range is ±5 V to ±7.5 V for dual supplies or 4.5 V to 15 V for single supply. Operation beyond ±7.5 V may increase distortion and reduce reliability; the datasheet specifies guaranteed performance only within the recommended range. THS4505DRG4 must be operated with proper decoupling capacitors (e.g., 0.1 µF ceramic + 10 µF tantalum) at each supply pin.
Does THS4505DRG4 support single-ended input configurations?
Yes, THS4505DRG4 supports single-ended-to-differential conversion using standard resistor networks (e.g., 499 Ω gain-setting resistors). The input common-mode range extends to the negative supply rail, allowing direct connection of ground-referenced sources without level-shifting circuitry. Performance metrics such as IMD3 and harmonic distortion are specified under single-ended input conditions in the datasheet, confirming validated use in this configuration. THS4505DRG4 maintains >70 dB CMRR across temperature in such setups.
What is the function of the PD pin on THS4505DRG4?
The PD (power-down) pin on THS4505DRG4 is not internally connected - it is a no-connect (NC) terminal. Unlike the THS4504 variant, the THS4505DRG4 does not implement power-down functionality. The pin should be left unconnected or tied to ground per PCB layout best practices to avoid floating nodes. This design choice simplifies biasing and eliminates timing concerns associated with power-state transitions, making THS4505DRG4 ideal for always-on signal-path applications.
How does VOCM control work on THS4505DRG4, and what happens if it's left unconnected?
On THS4505DRG4, the VOCM pin sets the output common-mode voltage via an internal amplifier with 200 MHz bandwidth. When driven with a stable DC voltage (e.g., 2.5 V), it forces VOUT+ and VOUT− to center around that level. If left unconnected under ±5 V supply, VOCM defaults to approximately 0 V ±0.1 V, resulting in output common-mode near midsupply (0 V). For single-supply operation (e.g., 5 V), the default shifts to ~2.5 V. External buffering is recommended for low-impedance VOCM drive in noise-sensitive applications.
Can THS4505DRG4 drive a 50 Ω differential load directly?
THS4505DRG4 is not designed to drive a 50 Ω differential load continuously - its minimum specified load is 20 Ω per side (i.e., 40 Ω differential), with output current drive rated at ≥100 mA (min) into 20 Ω. Driving 50 Ω differentially would require ≥100 mA peak current at ±4 V swing, exceeding safe operating area limits and risking thermal overload. For 50 Ω systems, use external 1:2 balun or series termination (e.g., 25 Ω per leg) to present ≥100 Ω to THS4505DRG4 outputs while maintaining signal integrity. THS4505DRG4 datasheet specifies performance into 800 Ω and 1 kΩ loads.
