description  
The THS6012 contains two high-speed drivers  
capable of providing 400 mA output current (min)  
into a 25 load. These drivers can be configured  
differentially to drive a 50-Vp-p output signal over  
low-impedance lines. The drivers are current  
feedback amplifiers, designed for the high slew  
rates necessary to support low total harmonic  
(SIDE VIEW)  
distortion (THD) in xDSL applications. The THS6012 is ideally suited for asymmetrical digital subscriber line  
(ADSL) applications at the central office, where it supports the high-peak voltage and current requirements of  
this application.  
Separate power supply connections for each driver are provided to minimize crosstalk. The THS6012 is  
available in the small surface-mount, thermally enhanced 20-pin PowerPAD package.

Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and  
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not  
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.  
NOTE 1: The THS6012 incorporates a PowerPad on the underside of the chip. This acts as a heatsink and must be connected to a thermal  
dissipation plane for proper power dissipation. Failure to do so can result in exceeding the maximum junction temperature, which could  
permanently damage the device. See the Thermal Information section of this document for more information about PowerPad  
technology.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
The THS6012 contains two independent operational amplifiers. These amplifiers are current feedback topology  
amplifiers made for high-speed operation. They have been specifically designed to deliver the full power  
requirements of ADSL and therefore can deliver output currents of at least 400 mA at full output voltage.  
The THS6012 is fabricated using Texas Instruments 30-V complementary bipolar process, HVBiCOM. This  
process provides excellent isolation and high slew rates that result in the device’s excellent crosstalk and  
extremely low distortion.  
independent power supplies  
Each amplifier of the THS6012 has its own power supply pins. This was specifically done to solve a problem  
that often occurs when multiple devices in the same package share common power pins. This problem is  
crosstalk between the individual devices caused by currents flowing in common connections. Whenever the  
current required by one device flows through a common connection shared with another device, this current,  
inconjunctionwiththeimpedanceinthesharedline, producesanunwantedvoltageonthepowersupply. Proper  
power supply decoupling and good device power supply rejection helps to reduce this unwanted signal. What  
is left is crosstalk.  
However, with independent power supply pins for each device, the effects of crosstalk through common  
impedance in the power supplies is more easily managed. This is because it is much easier to achieve low  
common impedance on the PCB with copper etch than it is to achieve low impedance within the package with  
either bond wires or metal traces on silicon.

supply operation from 10 V to 30 V), and each amplifier has its own power supply pins, several precautions must  
be taken to assure proper operation.  
1. The power supplies for each amplifier must be the same value. For example, if the driver 1 uses ±15 volts,  
then the driver 2 must also use ±15 volts. Using ±15 volts for one amplifier and ±5 volts for another amplifier  
is not allowed.  
2. To save power by powering down one of the amplifiers in the package, the following rules must be followed.  
The amplifier designated driver 1 must always receive power. This is because the internal startup  
circuitry uses the power from the driver 1 device.  
The –V  
pins from both drivers must always be at the same potential.  
CC  
Driver 2 is powered down by simply opening the +V  
connection.  
CC  
The THS6012 incorporates a standard Class A-B output stage. This means that some of the quiescent current  
is directed to the load as the load current increases. So under heavy load conditions, accurate power dissipation  
calculations are best achieved through actual measurements. For small loads, however, internal power  
dissipation for each amplifier in the THS6012 can be approximated by the following formula:

To find the total THS6012 power dissipation, we simply sum up both amplifier power dissipation results.  
Generally, the worst case power dissipation occurs when the output voltage is one-half the V voltage. One  
CC  
last note, which is often overlooked: the feedback resistor (R ) is also a load to the output of the amplifier and  
F
should be taken into account for low value feedback resistors.  
device protection features  
The THS6012 has two built-in protection features that protect the device against improper operation. The first  
protection mechanism is output current limiting. Should the output become shorted to ground the output current  
is automatically limited to the value given in the data sheet. While this protects the output against excessive  
current, the device internal power dissipation increases due to the high current and large voltage drop across  
the output transistors. Continuous output shorts are not recommended and could damage the device.  
Additionally, connection of the amplifier output to one of the supply rails (±V ) can cause failure of the device  
CC  
and is not recommended.  
The second built-in protection feature is thermal shutdown. Should the internal junction temperature rise above  
approximately 180 C, the device automatically shuts down. Such a condition could exist with improper heat  
sinking or if the output is shorted to ground. When the abnormal condition is fixed, the internal thermal shutdown  
circuit automatically turns the device back on.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
thermal information  
The THS6012 is packaged in a thermally-enhanced DWP package, which is a member of the PowerPAD family  
of packages. This package is constructed using a downset leadframe upon which the die is mounted  
[see Figure 39(a) and Figure 39(b)]. This arrangement results in the lead frame being exposed as a thermal pad  
on the underside of the package [see Figure 39(c)]. Because this thermal pad has direct thermal contact with  
the die, excellent thermal performance can be achieved by providing a good thermal path away from the thermal  
pad.  
The PowerPAD package allows for both assembly and thermal management in one manufacturing operation.  
During the surface-mount solder operation (when the leads are being soldered), the thermal pad can also be  
soldered to a copper area underneath the package. Through the use of thermal paths within this copper area,  
heat can be conducted away from the package into either a ground plane or other heat dissipating device. This  
is discussed in more detail in the PCB design considerations section of this document.  
The PowerPAD package represents a breakthrough in combining the small area and ease of assembly of  
surface mount with the, heretofore, awkward mechanical methods of heatsinking.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
recommended feedback and gain resistor values  
As with all current feedback amplifiers, the bandwidth of the THS6012 is an inversely proportional function of  
the value of the feedback resistor. This can be seen from Figures 17 – 20. The recommended resistors with a  
±15 V power supply for the optimum frequency response with a 25-load system are 680-for a gain = 1 and  
620-for a gain = 2 or –1. Additionally, using a ±5 V power supply, it is recommended that a 1-kfeedback  
resistor be used for a gain of 1 and a 820-feedback resistor be used for a gain of 2 or –1. These should be  
used as a starting point and once optimum values are found, 1% tolerance resistors should be used to maintain  
frequency response characteristics. Because there is a finite amount of output resistance of the operational  
amplifier, load resistance can play a major part in frequency response. This is especially true with these drivers,  
which tend to drive low-impedance loads. This can be seen in Figure 11, Figure 23, and Figure 24. As the load  
resistance increases, the output resistance of the amplifier becomes less dominant at high frequencies. To  
compensate for this, the feedback resistor should change. For 100-loads, it is recommended that the  
feedback resistor be changed to 820 for a gain of 1 and 560 for a gain of 2 or –1. Although, for most  
applications, a feedback resistor value of 1 kis recommended, which is a good compromise between  
bandwidth and phase margin that yields a very stable amplifier.  
Consistent with current feedback amplifiers, increasing the gain is best accomplished by changing the gain  
resistor, not the feedback resistor. This is because the bandwidth of the amplifier is dominated by the feedback  
resistor value and internal dominant-pole capacitor. The ability to control the amplifier gain independently of the  
bandwidth constitutes a major advantage of current feedback amplifiers over conventional voltage feedback  
amplifiers. Therefore, once a frequency response is found suitable to a particular application, adjust the value  
of the gain resistor to increase or decrease the overall amplifier gain.  
Finally, it is important to realize the effects of the feedback resistance on distortion. Increasing the resistance  
decreases the loop gain and increases the distortion. It is also important to know that decreasing load  
impedance increases total harmonic distortion (THD). Typically, the third order harmonic distortion increases  
more than the second order harmonic distortion.

noise calculations and noise figure  
Noise can cause errors on very small signals. This is especially true for the amplifying small signals. The noise  
model for current feedback amplifiers (CFB) is the same as voltage feedback amplifiers (VFB). The only  
difference between the two is that the CFB amplifiers generally specify different current noise parameters for  
each input while VFB amplifiers usually only specify one noise current parameter. The noise model is shown  
in Figure 42. This model includes all of the noise sources as follows:

noise calculations and noise figure (continued)  
As the previous equations show, to keep noise at a minimum, small value resistors should be used. As the  
closed-loop gain is increased (by reducing R ), the input noise is reduced considerably because of the parallel  
G
resistance term. This leads to the general conclusion that the most dominant noise sources are the source  
resistor (R ) and the internal amplifier noise voltage (e ). Because noise is summed in a root-mean-squares  
S
n
method, noise sources smaller than 25% of the largest noise source can be effectively ignored. This can greatly  
simplify the formula and make noise calculations much easier to calculate.  
This brings up another noise measurement usually preferred in RF applications, the noise figure (NF). Noise  
figure is a measure of noise degradation caused by the amplifier. The value of the source resistance must be  
defined and is typically 50 in RF applications.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
driving a capacitive load  
Driving capacitive loads with high performance amplifiers is not a problem as long as certain precautions are  
taken. The first is to realize that the THS6012 has been internally compensated to maximize its bandwidth and  
slew rate performance. When the amplifier is compensated in this manner, capacitive loading directly on the  
output will decrease the device’s phase margin leading to high frequency ringing or oscillations. Therefore, for  
capacitive loads of greater than 10 pF, it is recommended that a resistor be placed in series with the output of  
the amplifier, as shown in Figure 44. A minimum value of 10 should work well for most applications. For  
example, in 75-transmission systems, setting the series resistor value to 75 both isolates any capacitance  
loading and provides the proper line impedance matching at the source end.

PCB design considerations  
Proper PCB design techniques in two areas are important to assure proper operation of the THS6012. These  
areas are high-speed layout techniques and thermal-management techniques. Because the THS6012 is a  
high-speed part, the following guidelines are recommended.  
Ground plane – It is essential that a ground plane be used on the board to provide all components with a  
low inductive ground connection. Although a ground connection directly to a terminal of the THS6012 is not  
necessarily required, it is recommended that the thermal pad of the package be tied to ground. This serves  
two functions. It provides a low inductive ground to the device substrate to minimize internal crosstalk and  
it provides the path for heat removal.  
Input stray capacitance – To minimize potential problems with amplifier oscillation, the capacitance at the  
inverting input of the amplifiers must be kept to a minimum. To do this, PCB trace runs to the inverting input  
must be as short as possible, the ground plane must be removed under any etch runs connected to the  
inverting input, and external components should be placed as close as possible to the inverting input. This  
isespeciallytrueinthenoninvertingconfiguration. AnexampleofthiscanbeseeninFigure44, whichshows  
what happens when 1.8 pF is added to the inverting input terminal in the noninverting configuration. The  
bandwidth increases dramatically at the expense of peaking. This is because some of the error current is  
flowing through the stray capacitor instead of the inverting node of the amplifier. Although, in the inverting  
mode, stray capacitance at the inverting input has little effect. This is because the inverting node is at a  
virtual ground and the voltage does not fluctuate nearly as much as in the noninverting configuration.

Proper power supply decoupling – Use a minimum of a 6.8-µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1-µF  
ceramic capacitor on each supply terminal. It may be possible to share the tantalum among several  
amplifiers depending on the application, but a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor should always be used on the  
supply terminal of every amplifier. In addition, the 0.1-µF capacitor should be placed as close as possible  
tothesupplyterminal. Asthisdistanceincreases, theinductanceintheconnectingetchmakesthecapacitor  
less effective. The designer should strive for distances of less than 0.1 inches between the device power  
terminal and the ceramic capacitors.  
Because of its power dissipation, proper thermal management of the THS6012 is required. Although there are  
many ways to properly heatsink this device, the following steps illustrate one recommended approach for a  
multilayer PCB with an internal ground plane.  
1. Prepare the PCB with a top side etch pattern as shown in Figure 45. There should be etch for the leads as  
well as etch for the thermal pad.  
2. Place 18 holes in the area of the thermal pad. These holes should be 13 mils in diameter. They are kept  
small so that solder wicking through the holes is not a problem during reflow.  
3. It is recommended, but not required, to place six more holes under the package, but outside the thermal  
pad area. These holes are 25 mils in diameter. They may be larger because they are not in the area to be  
soldered so that wicking is not a problem.  
4. Connect all 24 holes, the 18 within the thermal pad area and the 6 outside the pad area, to the internal  
ground plane.

5. When connecting these holes to the ground plane, do not use the typical web or spoke via connection  
methodology. Webconnectionshaveahighthermalresistanceconnectionthatisusefulforslowingtheheat  
transfer during soldering operations. This makes the soldering of vias that have plane connections easier.  
However, in this application, low thermal resistance is desired for the most efficient heat transfer. Therefore,  
the holes under the THS6012 package should make their connection to the internal ground plane with a  
complete connection around the entire circumference of the plated through hole.  
6. The top-side solder mask should leave exposed the terminals of the package and the thermal pad area with  
its five holes. The four larger holes outside the thermal pad area, but still under the package, should be  
covered with solder mask.  
7. Apply solder paste to the exposed thermal pad area and all of the operational amplifier terminals.  
8. With these preparatory steps in place, the THS6012 is simply placed in position and run through the solder  
reflow operation as any standard surface-mount component. This results in a part that is properly installed.

ADSL (continued)  
The ADSL transmit band consists of 255 separate carrier frequencies each with its own modulation and  
amplitude level. With such an implementation, it is imperative that signals put onto the telephone line have as  
low a distortion as possible. This is because any distortion either interferes directly with other ADSL carrier  
frequencies or it creates intermodulation products that interfere with ADSL carrier frequencies.  
The THS6012 has been specifically designed for ultra low distortion by careful circuit implementation and by  
taking advantage of the superb characteristics of the complementary bipolar process. Driver single-ended  
distortion measurements are shown in Figures 29 – 32. It is commonly known that in the differential driver  
configuration, the second order harmonics tend to cancel out. Thus, the dominant total harmonic distortion  
(THD)willbeprimarilyduetothethirdorderharmonics. Fortheseteststheloadwas25. Additionally, distortion  
should be reduced as the feedback resistance drops. This is because the bandwidth of the amplifier increases,  
which allows the amplifier to react faster to any nonlinearities in the closed-loop system.  
Another significant point is the fact that distortion decreases as the impedance load increases. This is because  
the output resistance of the amplifier becomes less significant as compared to the output load resistance.  
general configurations  
A common error for the first-time CFB user is to create a unity gain buffer amplifier by shorting the output directly  
to the inverting input. A CFB amplifier in this configuration oscillates and is not recommended. The THS6012,  
like all CFB amplifiers, must have a feedback resistor for stable operation. Additionally, placing capacitors  
directly from the output to the inverting input is not recommended. This is because, at high frequencies, a  
capacitor has a very low impedance. This results in an unstable amplifier and should not be considered when  
using a current-feedback amplifier. Because of this, integrators and simple low-pass filters, which are easily  
implemented on a VFB amplifier, have to be designed slightly differently. If filtering is required, simply place an  
RC-filter at the noninverting terminal of the operational-amplifier (see Figure 49).

There are two simple ways to create an integrator with a CFB amplifier. The first one shown in Figure 51 adds  
a resistor in series with the capacitor. This is acceptable because at high frequencies, the resistor is dominant  
and the feedback impedance never drops below the resistor value. The second one shown in Figure 52 uses  
positive feedback to create the integration. Caution is advised because oscillations can occur because of the  
positive feedback.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
general configurations (continued)  
Another good use for the THS6012 amplifiers is as very good video distribution amplifiers. One characteristic  
of distribution amplifiers is the fact that the differential phase (DP) and the differential gain (DG) are  
compromised as the number of lines increases and the closed-loop gain increases. Be sure to use termination  
resistors throughout the distribution system to minimize reflections and capacitive loading.
