GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9630 is a monolithic buffer amplifier that utilizes a

patented, innovative, closed-loop design technique to achieve

exceptional gain accuracy, wide bandwidth, and low distortion.

Slew rate limiting has been overcome as indicated by the

1200 V/

µs slew rate; this improvement allows the user greater

flexibility in wideband and pulse applications. The second har-

monic distortion terms for an analog input tone of 4.3 MHz

and 20 MHz are –80 dBc and –66 dBc, respectively. Clearly,

the AD9630 establishes a new standard by combining out-

standing dc and dynamic performance in one part.

The large signal bandwidth, low distortion over frequency, and

drive capabilities of the AD9630 make the buffer an ideal flash

ADC driver. The AD9630 provides better signal fidelity than

many of the flash ADCs that it has been designed to drive.

Other applications that require increased current drive at unity

voltage gain (such as cable driving) benefit from the AD9630’s

performance.

The AD9630 is available in plastic DIP (N) and SOIC (R).
