AD8337 Data Sheet
FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Low noise
Voltage noise = 2.2 nV/√Hz
Current noise = 4.8 pA/√Hz (positive input)
Wide bandwidth (−3 dB) = 280 MHz
Nominal gain range: 0 dB to 24 dB (preamp gain = 6 dB)
Gain scaling: 19.7 dB/V
DC-coupled
Single-ended input and output
High speed uncommitted op amp input
Supplies: +5 V, ±2.5 V, or ±5 V
Low power: 78 mW with ±2.5 V supplies The AD8337 is a low noise, single-ended, linear-in-dB, generalpurpose, variable gain amplifier (VGA) usable at frequencies
from dc to 100 MHz; the −3 dB bandwidth is 280 MHz.
Excellent bandwidth uniformity across the entire gain range
and low output referred noise make the AD8337 ideal for
gain trim applications and for driving high speed analog-todigital converters (ADCs).
Excellent dc characteristics combined with high speed make the
AD8337 particularly suited for industrial ultrasound, PET
scanners, and video applications. Dual-supply operation enables
gain control of negative going pulses, such as those generated
by photodiodes or photomultiplier tubes. APPLICATIONS The AD8337 uses the Analog Devices, Inc., exclusive X-AMP® …
