GENERAL DESCRIPTON
The AD8137 is a low cost differential driver with a rail-to-rail
output that is ideal for driving 12-bit ADCs in systems that are
sensitive to power and cost. The AD8137 is easy to apply, and its
internal common-mode feedback architecture allows its output
common-mode voltage to be controlled by the voltage applied
to one pin. The internal feedback loop also provides inherently
balanced outputs as well as suppression of even-order harmonic
distortion products. Fully differential and single-ended-to-
differential gain configurations are easily realized by the
AD8137. External feedback networks consisting of four resistors
determine the amplifier’s closed-loop gain. The power-down
feature is beneficial in critical low power applications.
The AD8137 is manufactured on Analog Devices’ proprietary
second generation XFCB process, enabling it to achieve high
levels of performance with very low power consumption.
The AD8137 is available in the small 8-lead SOIC package and
3 mm × 3 mm LFCSP. It is rated to operate over the extended
industrial temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Table 4.
Parameter
Rating
The power dissipated in the package (PD) is the sum of the
quiescent power dissipation and the power dissipated in the
package due to the load drive for all outputs. The quiescent
power is the voltage between the supply pins (VS) times the
quiescent current (IS). The load current consists of differential
and common-mode currents flowing to the load, as well as
currents flowing through the external feedback networks and
the internal common-mode feedback loop. The internal resistor
tap used in the common-mode feedback loop places a 1 kΩ
differential load on the output. RMS output voltages should be
considered when dealing with ac signals.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only and functional operation of the device at these or
any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
Airflow reduces θJA. Also, more metal directly in contact with
the package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground,
and power planes reduces the θJA.
Figure 3 shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the
package vs. the ambient temperature for the SOIC-8 (125°C/W)
and LFCSP (θJA = 70°C/W) package on a JEDEC standard
4-layer board. θJA values are approximations.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
θJA is specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, θJA is
specified for the device soldered in a circuit board in still air.

SOIC-8
The maximum safe power dissipation in the AD8137 package is
limited by the associated rise in junction temperature (TJ) on
the die. At approximately 150°C, which is the glass transition
temperature, the plastic changes its properties. Even tempo-
rarily exceeding this temperature limit may change the stresses
that the package exerts on the die, permanently shifting the
parametric performance of the AD8137. Exceeding a junction
temperature of 175°C for an extended period of time can result
in changes in the silicon devices, potentially causing failure.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the
human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.

AD8137
THEORY OF OPERATION
100
The AD8137 is a low power, low cost, fully differential voltage
feedback amplifier that features a rail-to-rail output stage,
common-mode circuitry with an internally derived common-
mode reference voltage, and bias shutdown circuitry. The
amplifier uses two feedback loops to separately control differ-
ential and common-mode feedback. The differential gain is set
with external resistors as in a traditional amplifier while the
output common-mode voltage is set by an internal feedback
loop, controlled by an external VOCM input. This architecture
makes it easy to arbitrarily set the output common-mode
voltage level without affecting the differential gain of the
amplifier.

In Figure 61, the common-mode feedback amplifier ACM
samples the output common-mode voltage, and by negative
feedback forces the output common-mode voltage to be equal
to the voltage applied to the VOCM input. In other words, the
feedback loop servos the output common-mode voltage to the
voltage applied to the VOCM input. An internal bias generator
sets the VOCM level to approximately midsupply; therefore, the
output common-mode voltage will be set to approximately
midsupply when the VOCM input is left floating. The source
resistance of the internal bias generator is large and can be
overridden easily by an external voltage supplied by a source
with a relatively small output resistance. The VOCM input can
be driven to within approximately 1 V of the supply rails while
maintaining linear operation in the common-mode feedback loop.

From Figure 61, the input transconductance stage is an
H-bridge whose output current is mirrored to high impedance
nodes CP and CN. The output section is traditional H-bridge
driven circuitry with common emitter devices driving nodes
+OUT and −OUT. The 3 dB point of the amplifier is defined as
The common-mode feedback loop inside the AD8137 produces
outputs that are highly balanced over a wide frequency range
without the requirement of tightly matched external compo-
nents, because it forces the signal component of the output
common-mode voltage to be zeroed. The result is nearly
perfectly balanced differential outputs of identical amplitude
and exactly 180° apart in phase.
gm
BW =
2π×CC
where gm is the transconductance of the input stage and CC is
the total capacitance on node CP/CN (capacitances CP and CN
are well matched). For the AD8137, the input stage gm is
~1 mA/V and the capacitance CC is 3.5 pF, setting the crossover
frequency of the amplifier at 41 MHz. This frequency generally
establishes an amplifier’s unity gain bandwidth, but with the
AD8137, the closed-loop bandwidth depends upon the feed-
back resistor value as well (see Figure 19). The open-loop gain
and phase simulations are shown in Figure 62.

APPLICATIONS
Output balance is measured by placing a well-matched resistor
divider across the differential voltage outputs and comparing
the signal at the divider’s midpoint with the magnitude of the
differential output. By this definition, output balance is equal to
the magnitude of the change in output common-mode voltage
divided by the magnitude of the change in output differential-
mode voltage:
ANALYZING A TYPICAL APPLICATION WITH

Typical Connection and Definition of Terms
Figure 63 shows a typical connection for the AD8137, using
matched external RF/RG networks. The differential input
terminals of the AD8137, VAP and VAN, are used as summing
junctions. An external reference voltage applied to the VOCM
terminal sets the output common-mode voltage. The two
output terminals, VOP and VON, move in opposite directions
in a balanced fashion in response to an input signal.

Estimating Output Noise Voltage and Bandwidth
The total output noise is the root-sum-squared total of several
statistically independent sources. Since the sources are statisti-
cally independent, the contributions of each must be individu-
ally included in the root-sum-square calculation. Table 7 lists
recommended resistor values and estimates of bandwidth and
output differential voltage noise for various closed-loop gains.
For most applications, 1% resistors are sufficient.
Output Balance
Output balance is a measure of how well VOP and VON are
matched in amplitude and how precisely they are 180° out of
phase with each other. It is the internal common-mode feed-
back loop that forces the signal component of the output
common-mode towards zero, resulting in the near perfectly
balanced differential outputs of identical amplitude and exactly
180° out of phase. The output balance performance does not
require tightly matched external components, nor does it
require that the feedback factors of each loop be equal to each
other. Low frequency output balance is ultimately limited by
the mismatch of an on-chip voltage divider.

Feedback Factor Notation
The differential output voltage noise contains contributions
from the AD8137’s input voltage noise and input current noise
as well as those from the external feedback networks.

introduce the feedback factor β, which is defined as

Input Common-Mode Voltage
The linear range of the VAN and VAP terminals extends to within
approximately 1 V of either supply rail. Since VAN and VAP are
essentially equal to each other, they are both equal to the
amplifier’s input common-mode voltage. Their range is
indicated in the specifications tables as input common-mode
range. The voltage at VAN and VAP for the connection diagram
in Figure 63 can be expressed as

The input impedance of a conventional inverting op amp
configuration is simply RG, but is higher in Equation 19
because a fraction of the differential output voltage appears at
the summing junctions, VAN and VAP. This voltage partially
bootstraps the voltage across the input resistor RG, leading to
the increased input resistance.

Consider the case in Figure 64, where VIN is 5 V p-p swinging
about a baseline at ground and VREFB is connected to ground.
The input signal to the AD8137 is originating from a source
with a very low output resistance.
Figure 65. Low-Z Bias Source
The circuit has a differential gain of 1.0 and β = 0.5. VICM has an
amplitude of 2.5 V p-p and is swinging about ground. Using the
results in Equation 16, the common-mode voltage at the AD8137’s
inputs, VACM, is a 1.25 V p-p signal swinging about a baseline of
1.25 V. The maximum negative excursion of VACM in this case is
0.63 V, which exceeds the lower input common-mode voltage limit.
Another way to avoid the input common-mode swing limita-
tion is to use dual power supplies on the AD8137. In this case,
the biasing circuitry is not required.
Bandwidth vs. Closed-Loop Gain
The AD8137’s 3 dB bandwidth will decrease proportionally to
increasing closed-loop gain in the same way as a traditional
voltage feedback operational amplifier. For closed-loop gains
greater than 4, the bandwidth obtained for a specific gain can be
estimated as
One way to avoid the input common-mode swing limitation is
to bias VIN and VREF at midsupply. In this case, VIN is 5 V p-p
swinging about a baseline at 2.5 V, and VREF is connected to a
low-Z 2.5 V source. VICM now has an amplitude of 2.5 V p-p and
is swinging about 2.5 V. Using the results in Equation 17, VACM
is calculated to be equal to VICM because VOCM = VICM. Therefore,
RG

VICM swings from 1.25 V to 3.75 V, which is well within the
input common-mode voltage limits of the AD8137. Another
benefit seen by this example is that since VOCM = VACM = VICM
or equivalently, β(72 MHz).
,
no wasted common-mode current flows. Figure 65 illustrates a
way to provide the low-Z bias voltage. For situations that do not
require a precise reference, a simple voltage divider will suffice
to develop the input voltage to the buffer.
This estimate assumes a minimum 90 ° phase margin for the
amplifier loop, a condition approached for gains greater than
four. Lower gains will show more bandwidth than predicted by
the equation due to the peaking produced by the lower phase
margin.

AD8137
Estimating DC Errors
Driving a Capacitive Load
Primary differential output offset errors in the AD8137 are due
to three major components: the input offset voltage, the offset
between the VAN and VAP input currents interacting with the
feedback network resistances, and the offset produced by the dc
voltage difference between the input and output common-mode
voltages in conjunction with matching errors in the feedback
network.
A purely capacitive load will react with the bondwire and pin
inductance of the AD8137, resulting in high frequency ringing
in the transient response and loss of phase margin. One way to
minimize this effect is to place a small resistor in series with
each output to buffer the load capacitance. The resistor and load
capacitance will form a first-order, low-pass filter, so the resistor
value should be as small as possible. In some cases, the ADCs
require small series resistors to be added on their inputs.
The first output error component is calculated as
Figure 39 and Figure 42 illustrate transient response vs. capaci-
tive load, and were generated using series resistors in each
output and a differential capacitive load.

Layout Considerations
Standard high speed PCB layout practices should be adhered to

recommended and good wideband power supply decoupling
networks should be placed as close as possible to the supply pins.

To minimize stray capacitance at the summing nodes, the
copper in all layers under all traces and pads that connect to the
summing nodes should be removed. Small amounts of stray
summing-node capacitance will cause peaking in the frequency
response, and large amounts can cause instability. If some stray
summing-node capacitance is unavoidable, its effects can be
compensated for by placing small capacitors across the feedback
resistors.
where IIO is defined as the offset between the two input bias
currents.
The third error voltage is calculated as
Vo_e 3 = ∆enr ×(VICM −VOCM
)
(23)
where Δenr is the fractional mismatch between the two
feedback resistors.
Terminating a Single-Ended Input
The total differential offset error is the sum of these three error
sources.
Controlled impedance interconnections are used in most high
speed signal applications, and they require at least one line
termination. In analog applications, a matched resistive ter-
mination is generally placed at the load end of the line. This
section deals with how to properly terminate a single-ended
input to the AD8137.
Additional Impact of Mismatches in the Feedback Networks
The internal common-mode feedback network will still force
the output voltages to remain balanced, even when the RF/RG
feedback networks are mismatched. The mismatch, however,
will cause a gain error proportional to the feedback network
mismatch.
The input resistance presented by the AD8137 input circuitry
is seen in parallel with the termination resistor, and its loading
effect must be taken into account. The Thevenin equivalent
circuit of the driver, its source resistance, and the termination
resistance must all be included in the calculation as well. An
exact solution to the problem requires solution of several
simultaneous algebraic equations and is beyond the scope of
this data sheet. An iterative solution is also possible and is
simpler, especially considering the fact that standard resistor
values are generally used.
Ratio-matching errors in the external resistors will degrade the
ability to reject common-mode signals at the VAN and VIN input
terminals, similar to a four-resistor difference amplifier made
from a conventional op amp. Ratio-matching errors will also
produce a differential output component that is equal to the
VOCM input voltage times the difference between the feedback
factors (βs). In most applications using 1% resistors, this
component amounts to a differential dc offset at the output that
is small enough to be ignored.
Figure 66 shows the AD8137 in a unity-gain configuration, and
with the following discussion, provides a good example of how
to provide a proper termination in a 50 Ω environment.

This example shows that when RF and RG are large compared
to RT, the gain reduction produced by the increase in RG is
essentially cancelled by the increase in the Thevenin voltage
caused by RT being greater than the output resistance of the
signal source. In general, as RF and RG become smaller in termi-
nated applications, RF needs to be increased to compensate for
the increase in RG.

The 52.3 Ω termination resistor, RT, in parallel with the 1 kΩ
input resistance of the AD8137 circuit, yields an overall input
resistance of 50 Ω that is seen by the signal source. In order to
have matched feedback loops, each loop must have the same RG
if it has the same RF. In the input (upper) loop, RG is equal to the
1 kΩ resistor in series with the (+) input plus the parallel
combination of RT and the source resistance of 50 Ω. In the
upper loop, RG is therefore equal to 1.03 kΩ. The closest
standard value is 1.02 kΩ and is used for RG in the lower loop.

Table 3) for the threshold limits.
DRIVING AN ADC WITH GREATER THAN 12-BIT
PERFORMANCE
Since the AD8137 is suitable for 12-bit systems, it is desirable to
measure the performance of the amplifier in a system with
greater than 12-bit linearity. In particular, the effective number
of bits, ENOB, is most interesting. The AD7687, 16-bit,
250 KSPS ADC’s performance makes it an ideal candidate for
showcasing the 12-bit performance of the AD8137.
Things become more complicated when it comes to
determining the feedback resistor values. The amplitude of the
signal source generator VIN is two times the amplitude of its
output signal when terminated in 50 Ω. Therefore, a 2 V p-p
terminated amplitude is produced by a 4 V p-p amplitude from
VS. The Thevenin equivalent circuit of the signal source and RT
must be used when calculating the closed-loop gain because RG
in the upper loop is split between the 1 kΩ resistor and the
Thevenin resistance looking back toward the source. The
Thevenin voltage of the signal source is greater than the signal
source output voltage when terminated in 50 Ω because RT
must always be greater than 50 Ω. In this case, RT is 52.3 Ω and
the Thevenin voltage and resistance are 2.04 V p-p and 25.6 Ω,
respectively.
For this application, the AD8137 is set in a gain of two and
driven single-ended through a 20 kHz band-pass filter, while the
output is taken differentially to the input of the AD7687
(see Figure 67). This circuit has mismatched RG impedances and,
therefore, has a dc offset at the differential output. It is included
as a test circuit to illustrate the performance of the AD8137.
Actual application circuits should have matched feedback
networks.
For an AD7687 input range up to −1.82 dBFS, the AD8137 power
supply is a single 5 V applied to VS+ with VS− tied to ground. To
increase the AD7687 input range to −0.45 dBFS, the AD8137
supplies are increased to +6 V and −1 V. In both cases, the VOCM
Now the upper input branch can be viewed as a 2.04 V p-p
source in series with 1.03 kΩ. Since this is to be a unity-gain
application, a 2 V p-p differential output is required, and RF
must therefore be 1.03 kΩ × (2/2.04) = 1.01 kΩ ≈ 1 kΩ.
