LTC6400-8 25Ω 500Ω The LTC6400-8 is unconditionally stable, i.e. differential 200Ω 12.5Ω 13 +IN +OUT 8 stability factor Kf>1 and stability measure B1>0.

The signal is fed to one of the inputs through a 50Ω IN+ OUT– matching network while the other input is connected to +OUTF V 7 IN 14 +IN + VOUT the same matching network and a source resistor. Because – 50Ω 2.7pF the return ratios of the two feedback paths are equal, the 15 –IN IN– OUT+ –OUTF 6 two outputs have the same gain and thus symmetrical 1/2 R 200Ω S 500Ω 12.5Ω 1/2 RL swing. In general, the single-ended input impedance and 16 –IN –OUT 5 termination resistor R 64008 F04 T are determined by the combination of RS, RG and RF. For example, when RS is 50Ω, it is found
