FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1992 product family consists of five fully differ-
ential, low power amplifiers. The LTC1992 is an uncon-
strained fully differential amplifier. The LTC1992-1,
LTC1992-2, LTC1992-5 and LTC1992-10 are fixed gain
blocks (with gains of 1, 2, 5 and 10 respectively) featuring
precision on-chip resistors for accurate and ultrastable
gain. All of the LTC1992 parts have a separate internal
common mode feedback path for outstanding output
phase balancing and reduced second order harmonics.
The VOCM pin sets the output common mode level inde-
pendent of the input common mode level. This feature
makes level shifting of signals easy.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 6: The LTC1992C/LTC1992-XC are guaranteed to meet the specified
performance limits over the 0°C to 70°C temperature range and are
designed, characterized and expected to meet the specified performance
limits over the –40°C to 85°C temperature range but are not tested or QA
sampled at these temperatures. The LTC1992I/LTC1992-XI are guaranteed
to meet the specified performance limits over the –40°C to 85°C
temperature range. The LTC1992H/LTC1992-XH are guaranteed to meet
the specified performance limits over the –40°C to 125°C temperature
range.
Note 7: Differential offset voltage, differential offset voltage drift, CMRR,
noise voltage density and PSRR are referred to the internal amplifier’s
input to allow for direct comparison of gain blocks with discrete
amplifiers.
Note 2: Output load is connected to the midpoint of the +V and –V
S
S
potentials. Measurement is taken single-ended, one output loaded at a
time.
Note 3: A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the absolute maximum when the output is shorted indefinitely.
Note 4: Differential output slew rate. Slew rate is measured single ended
and doubled to get the listed numbers.
Note 5: The LTC1992C/LTC1992-XC/LTC1992I/LTC1992-XI are guaranteed
functional over an operating temperature of –40°C to 85°C. The
LTC1992H/LTC1992-XH are guaranteed functional over the extended
operating temperature of –40°C to 125°C.

input and output common mode voltages makes signal
level shifting easy.
The LTC1992 family consists of five fully differential, low
power amplifiers. The LTC1992 is an unconstrained fully
differential amplifier. The LTC1992-1, LTC1992-2,
LTC1992-5 and LTC1992-10 are fixed gain blocks (with
gainsof1,2,5and10respectively)featuringprecisionon-
chip resistors for accurate and ultra stable gain.
Forabetterunderstandingoftheoperationofafullydiffer-
ential amplifier, refer to Figure 2. Here, the LTC1992 func-
tionalblockdiagramaddsexternalresistorstorealizeabasic
gainblock.NotethattheLTC1992functionalblockdiagram
is not an exact replica of the LTC1992 circuitry. However,
the Block Diagram is correct and is a very good tool for
understanding the operation of fully differential amplifier
circuits.Basicopampfundamentalstogetherwiththisblock
diagram provide all of the tools needed for understanding
fully differential amplifier circuit applications.
In many ways, a fully differential amplifier functions much
like the familiar, ubiquitous op amp. However, there are
several key areas where the two differ. Referring to Fig-
ure 1, an op amp has a differential input, a high open-loop
gain and utilizes negative feedback (through resistors) to
set the closed-loop gain and thus control the amplifier’s
gain with great precision. A fully differential amplifier has
all of these features plus an additional input and a comple-
mentary output. The complementary output reacts to the
input signal in the same manner as the other output, but
in the opposite direction. Two outputs changing in an
equal but opposite manner require a common reference
point (i.e., opposite relative to what?). The additional
input, the VOCM pin, sets this reference point. The voltage
on the VOCM input directly sets the output signal’s com-
The LTC1992 Block Diagram has two op amps, two
summing blocks (pay close attention the signs) and four
resistors. Two resistors, RMID1 and RMID2, connect di-
rectly to the VMID pin and simply provide a convenient
midsupply reference. Its use is optional and it is not
involved in the operation of the LTC1992’s amplifier. The

each employing negative feedback and using an op amp’s
differential input to create the servo’s summing junction.
out of the specified areas of operation (e.g., inputs taken
beyond the common mode range specifications, outputs
hitting the supply rails or input signals varying faster than
the part can track), the circuit will not function properly.
Oneservocontrolsthesignalgainpath.Thedifferentialinput
of op amp A1 creates the summing junction of this servo.
Any voltage present at the input of A1 is amplified (by the
opamp’slargeopen-loopgain),senttothesummingblocks
and then onto the outputs. Taking note of the signs on the
summing blocks, op amp A1’s output moves +OUT and
–OUTinoppositedirections.Applyingavoltagestepatthe

its error voltage to zero. In this servo, the error voltage is
the voltage between the INM and INP nodes, thus A1 will
force the voltages on the INP and INM nodes to be equal
(within the part’s DC offset, open loop gain and bandwidth
limits). The “virtual short” between the two inputs is con-
ceptually the same as that for op amps and is critical to un-
derstanding fully differential amplifier applications.
Fully Differential Amplifier Signal Conventions
Fully differential amplifiers have a multitude of signals and
signal ranges to consider. To maintain proper operation
with conventional op amps, the op amp’s inputs and its
output must not hit the supply rails and the input signal’s
common mode level must also be within the part’s speci-
fied limits. These considerations also apply to fully differ-
ential amplifiers, but here there is an additional output to
consider and common mode level shifting complicates
matters. Figure 3 provides a list of the many signals and
specifications as well as the naming convention. The
phrase“commonmode”appearsinmanyplacesandoften
leads to confusion. The fully differential amplifier’s ability
to uncouple input and output common mode levels yields
greatdesignflexibility,butalsocomplicatesmatterssome.
For simplicity, the equations in Figure 3 also assume an
ideal amplifier and perfect resistor matching. For a de-
tailedanalysis, consultthefullydifferentialamplifierappli-
cations circuit analysis section..
The other servo controls the output common mode level.
The differential input of op amp A2 creates the summing
junction of this servo. Similar to the signal gain servo
above, any voltage present at the input of A2 is amplified,
sent to the summing blocks and then onto the outputs.
However, in this case, both outputs move in the same
direction. TheresistorsRCMP andRCMM connectthe+OUT
and –OUT outputs to A2’s inverting input establishing
negative feedback and closing the servo’s loop. The mid-
point of resistors RCMP and RCMM derives the output’s
commonmodelevel(i.e.,itsaverage).Thismeasureofthe
output’s common mode level connects to A2’s inverting
input while A2’s noninverting input connects directly to
the VOCM pin. A2 forces the voltages on its inverting and
noninverting inputs to be equal. In other words, it forces
the output common mode voltage to be equal to the
voltage on the VOCM input pin.
Basic Applications Circuits
Most fully differential amplifier applications circuits em-
ploy symmetrical feedback networks and are familiar
territory for op amp users. Symmetrical feedback net-
works require that the –VIN/+VOUT network is a mirror
image duplicate of the +VIN/–VOUT network. Each of these
half circuits is basically just a standard inverting gain op
amp circuit. Figure 4 shows three basic inverting gain op
amp circuits and their corresponding fully differential
amplifier cousins. The vast majority of fully differential
amplifier circuits derive from old tried and true inverting
op amp circuits. To create a fully differential amplifier
circuit from an inverting op amp circuit, first simply
transfer the op amp’s VIN/VOUT network to the fully differ-
ential amplifier’s –VIN/+VOUT nodes. Then, take a mirror
image duplicate of the network and apply it to the fully
differential amplifier’s +VIN/–VOUT nodes. Op amp users
can comfortably transfer any inverting op amp circuit to a
For any fully differential amplifier application to function
properlyboththesignalgainservoandthecommonmode
level servo must be satisfied. When analyzing an applica-
tions circuit, the INP node voltage must equal the INM
node voltage and the output common mode voltage must
equal the VOCM voltage. If either of these servos is taken

input. The ADC could be run in a single-ended manner,
but performance usually degrades. Fortunately, all of
basic applications circuits shown in Figure 4, as well as
all of the fixed gain LTC1992-X parts, are equally suitable
for both differential and single-ended input signals. For
single-ended input signals, connect one of the inputs to

The VOCM input pin has a very high input impedance and
is easily driven by even the weakest of sources. Many
ADCs provide a voltage reference output that defines
either its common mode level or its full-scale level. Apply
the ADC’s reference potential either directly to the VOCM
pin or through a resistive voltage divider depending on the
reference voltage’s definition. When controlling the VOCM
pin by a high impedance source, connect a bypass capaci-
tor(1000pFto0.1µF)fromtheVOCM pintogroundtolower
the high frequency impedance and limit external noise
coupling. Other applications will want the output biased at
a midpoint of the power supplies for maximum output
voltage swing. For these applications, the LTC1992 pro-
vides a midsupply potential at the VMID pin. The VMID pin
connects to a simple resistive voltage divider with two
200k resistors connected between the supply pins. To use
this feature, connect the VMID pin to the VOCM pin and
bypass this node with a capacitor.
dominates low frequency CMRR performance. The speci-
fications for the fixed gain LTC1992-X parts include the
on-chip resistor matching effects. Also, note that an input
common mode signal appears as a differential output
signal reduced by the CMRR. As with op amps, at higher
frequencies the CMRR degrades. Refer to the Typical
Performance plots for the details of the CMRR perfor-
mance over frequency.
At low frequencies, the output balance specification is
determined by the matching of the on-chip RCMM and
R
CMP resistors. At higher frequencies, the output balance
degrades. Refer to the typical performance plots for the
details of the output balance performance over frequency.
Input Impedance
The input impedance for a fully differential amplifier appli-
cation circuit is similar to that of a standard op amp
inverting amplifier. One major difference is that the input
impedance is different for differential input signals and
single-ended signals. Referring to Figure 3, for differential
input signals the input impedance is expressed by the
following expression:
One undesired effect of utilizing the level shifting function
is an increase in the differential output offset voltage due
to gain setting resistor mismatch. The offset is approxi-
mately the amount of level shift (VOUTCM – VINCM) multi-
plied by the amount of resistor mismatch. For example, a
2V level shift with 0.1% resistors will give around 2mV of
output offset (2 • 0.1% = 2mV). The exact amount of offset
is dependent on the application’s gain and the resistor
mismatch.Foradetaildescription,consulttheFullyDiffer-
ential Amplifier Applications Circuit Analysis section.

For single-ended signals, the input impedance is ex-
pressed by the following expression:

Onecommonmisconceptionoffullydifferentialamplifiers
is that the common mode level servo guarantees an
infinite common mode rejection ratio (CMRR). This is not
true. The common mode level servo does, however, force
the two outputs to be truly complementary (i.e., exactly
opposite or 180 degrees out of phase). Output balance is
a measure of how complementary the two outputs are.
The input impedance for single-ended signals is slightly
higher than the RIN value since some of the input signal is
fed back and appears as the amplifier’s input common
mode level. This small amount of positive feedback in-
creases the input impedance.
Driving Capacitive Loads
At low frequencies, CMRR is primarily determined by the
matching of the gain setting resistors. Like any op amp,
the LTC1992 does not have infinite CMRR, however resis-
tor mismatching of only 0.018%, halves the circuit’s
CMRR. Standard 1% tolerance resistors yield a CMRR of
about 40dB. For most applications, resistor matching

loading. Large capacitive loads increase output step re-

and increase the frequency response peaking. Refer to the

appraise the effects of capacitive loading. While the con-
sequences are minor in most instances, consider these
effects when designing application circuits with large
capacitive loads.

common mode range, there is a small recovery time then
normal operation proceeds.

is from (–VS – 0.1V) to (+VS – 1.3V). This specification
applies to the voltage at the amplifier’s input, the INP and
INMnodesofFigure2.Thespecificationsforthefixedgain
LTC1992-X parts reflect a higher maximum limit as this
specification is for the entire gain block and references the
signal at the input resistors. Differential input signals and
single-ended signals require a slightly different set of
formulae. Differential signals separate very nicely into
common mode and differential components while single
endedsignalsdonot. RefertoFigure5fortheformulaefor
calculatingtheavailablesignalrange. Additionally, Table1
lists some common configurations and their appropriate
signal levels.
Input Signal Amplitude Considerations
For application circuits to operate correctly, the amplifier
must be in its linear operating range. To be in the linear
operating range, the input signal’s common mode voltage
must be within the part’s specified limits and the rail-to-
rail outputs must stay within the supply voltage rails.
Additionally, the fixed gain LTC1992-X parts have input
protectiondiodesthatlimittheinputsignaltobewithinthe
supply voltage rails. The unconstrained LTC1992 uses
external resistors allowing the source signals to go be-
yond the supply voltage rails.
The LTC1992’s outputs allow rail-to-rail signal swings.
The output voltage on either output is a function of the
input signal’s amplitude, the gain configured and the
output signal’s common mode level set by the VOCM pin.
For maximum signal swing, the VOCM pin is set at the
midpoint of the supply voltages. For other applications,
such as an ADC driver, the required level must fall within
the VOCM range of (–VS + 0.5V) to (+VS – 1.3V). For single-
ended input signals, it is not always obvious which output
will clip first thus both outputs are calculated and the
minimum value determines the signal limit. Refer to
Figure 5 for the formulae and Table 1 for examples.
When taken outside of the linear operating range, the
circuit does not perform as expected, however nothing
extreme occurs. Outputs driven into the supply voltage
rails are simply clipped. There is no phase reversal or
oscillation. Once the outputs return to the linear operating
range, there is a small recovery time, then normal opera-
tion proceeds. When the input common mode voltage is
below the specified lower limit, on-chip protection diodes
conduct and clamp the signal. Once the signal returns to
thespecifiedoperatingrange, normaloperationproceeds.
If the input common mode voltage goes slightly above the
specified upper limit (by no more than about 500mV), the
amplifier’s open-loop gain reduces and DC offset and
closed-loop gain errors increase. Return the input back to
the specified range and normal performance commences.
If taken well above the upper limit, the amplifier’s input
stage is cut off. The gain servo is now open loop; however,
thecommonmodeservoisstillfunctional. Outputbalance
is maintained and the outputs go to opposite supply rails.
However, which output goes to which supply rail is
To ensure proper linear operation both the input common
mode level and the output signal level must be within the
specified limits. These same criteria are also present with
standardopamps. However, withafullydifferentialampli-
fier, it is a bit more complex and old familiar op amp
intuition often leads to the wrong result. This is especially
true for single-ended to differential conversion with level
shifting.Therequiredcalculationsareabittedious,butare

Fully Differential Amplifier Applications
Circuit Analysis
While mathematically correct, the basic signal equation
does not immediately yield any intuitive feel for fully
differential amplifier application operation. However, by
nulling out specific terms, some basic observations and
sensitivities come forth. Setting β1 equal to β2, VOSDIFF to
zero and VOUTCM to VOCM gives the old gain equation from
Figure 3. The ground referenced, single-ended input sig-
nal equation yields the interesting result that the driven
side feedback factor (β1) has a very different sensitivity
than the grounded side (β2). The CMRR is twice the
feedback factor difference divided by the feedback factor
sum. The differential output offset voltage has two terms.
The first term is determined by the input offset term,
All of the previous applications circuit discussions have
assumed perfectly matched symmetrical feedback net-
works. To consider the effects of mismatched or asym-
metricalfeedbacknetworks,theequationsgetabitmessier.
Figure 6 lists the basic gain equation for the differential
outputvoltageintermsof+VIN, –VIN, VOSDIFF, VOUTCM and
the feedback factors β1 and β2. The feedback factors are
simplytheportionoftheoutputthatisfedbacktotheinput
summingjunctionbytheRFB-RIN resistivevoltagedivider.
β1 and β2have the range of zero to one. The VOUTCM term
also includes its offset voltage, VOSCM, and its gain mis-
match term, KCM. The KCM term is determined by the
matching of the on-chip RCMP and RCMM resistors in the
common mode level servo (see Figure 2).
V
OSDIFF, and the application’s gain. Note that this term
equates to the formula in Figure 3 when β1 equals β2. The
amount of signal level shifting and the feedback factor
mismatch determines the second term. This term

Figure 6. Basic Equations for Mismatched or Asymmetrical Feedback Applications Circuits
quantifies the undesired effect of signal level shifting dual, split supply voltage applications with a ground
discussed earlier in the Signal Level Shifting section.
referenced input signal and a grounded VOCM pin.
The top application circuit in Figure 7 yields a high input
impedance, precision gain of 2 block without any external
resistors. The on-chip common mode feedback servo
resistors determine the gain precision (better than 0.1
percent). By using the –VOUT output alone, this circuit is
also useful to get a precision, single-ended output, high
input impedance inverter. To intuitively understand this
circuit, consider it as a standard op amp voltage follower
(delivered through the signal gain servo) with a comple-
mentary output (delivered through the common mode
level servo). As usual, the amplifier’s input common
mode range must not be exceeded. As with a standard op
amp voltage follower, the common mode signal seen at
the amplifier’s input is the input signal itself. This condi-
tion limits the input signal swing, as well as the output
signal swing, to be the input signal common mode range
specification.
Asymmetrical Feedback Application Circuits
The basic signal equation in Figure 6 also gives insight to
another piece of intuition. The feedback factors may be
deliberatelysettodifferentvalues. Oneinterestingclassof
these application circuits sets one or both of the feedback
factorstotheextremevaluesofeitherzeroorone.Figure 7
shows three such circuits.
At first these application circuits may look to be unstable
or open loop. It is the common mode feedback loop that
enables these circuits to function. While they are useful
circuits, they have some shortcomings that must be
considered. First, do to the severe feedback factor asym-
metry, the VOCM level influences the differential output
voltage with about the same strength as the input signal.
With this much gain in the VOCM path, differential output
offset and noise increase. The large VOCM to VOUTDIFF gain
also necessitates that these circuits are largely limited to
The middle circuit is largely the same as the first except
that the noninverting amplifier path has gain. Note that
