Preface
About This Manual
This manual is written to provide information about the evaluation module of
the fully differential amplifier under test. Additionally, this document provides
a good example of PCB design for high speed applications. The user should
keep in mind the following points.
The design of the high-speed amplifier PCB is an elegant and sensitive
process. Therefore, the user must approach the PCB design with care and
awareness. It is recommend that the user initially review the datasheet of the
device under test. It is also helpful to review the schematic and layout of the
THS4151 EVM to determine the design techniques used in the evaluation
board. In addition, it is recommended that the user review the application note
Fully-Differential Amplifiers (literature number SLOA054B) to gain more
insight about differential amplifiers. This application note reviews the
differential amplifiers and presents calculations for various filters
.
