6.3 Feature Description

The proprietary current feedback architecture of the LMH6554 offers gain and bandwidth independence with exceptional gain flatness and noise performance, even at high values of gain, simply with the appropriate choice of RF1 and RF2. Generally RF1 is set equal to RF2, and RG1 equal to RG2, so that the gain is set by the ratio RF/RG. Matching of these resistors greatly affects CMRR, DC offset error, and output balance. A maximum of 0.1% tolerance resistors are recommended for desired performance, and the amplifier is internally compensated to operate with optimum gain flatness with RF value of 200 Ω depending on PCB layout, and load resistance. The output common mode voltage is set by the VCM pin with a fixed gain of 1V/V. This pin must be driven by a low impedance reference and must be bypassed to ground with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor. Any unwanted signal coupling into the VCM pin is passed along to the outputs, reducing the performance of the amplifier. The LMH6554 can be configured to operate on a single 5V supply connected to V+ with V- grounded or configured for a split supply operation with V+ = +2.5V and V− = −2.5V. Operation on a single 5V supply, depending on gain, is limited by the input common mode range; therefore, AC coupling can be required.
