GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
AD8324
is a low cost amplifier designed for coaxial line
driving. The features and specifications make the
AD8324
ideally suited for DOCSIS® 2.0
1
and EuroDOCSIS™ applications.
The gain of the
AD8324
is digitally controlled. An 8-bit serial
word determines the desired output gain over a 59 dB range,
resulting in gain changes of 1 dB/LSB.
The
AD8324
accepts a differential or single-ended input signal.
The output is specified for driving a 75 Ω load through a 1:1
transformer.
Distortion performance of –54 dBc is achieved with an output
level up to 61 dBmV at 65 MHz bandwidth.
This device has a sleep mode function that reduces the quiescent
current to 30 μA and a full power-down function that reduces
power-down current to 2.5 mA.
The
AD8324
is packaged in a low cost, 20-lead LFCSP and a
20-lead QSOP. The
AD8324
operates from a single 3.3 V supply.
