Use Figure 4 to determine the interface between the gain confi guration the LT6604-5 requires an 806Ω source LT6604-5 and a current output DAC. The gain, or “tran- resistance yet the network analyzer output is calibrated simpedance,” is defi ned as A = VOUT/IIN. To compute the for a 50Ω load resistance. The 1:1 transformer, 51.1Ω transimpedance, use the following equation: and 787Ω resistors satisfy the two constraints above. The transformer converts the single-ended source into a A = 806 •R1Ω differential stimulus. Similarly, the output of the LT6604-5 R1+R2 will have lower distortion with larger load resistance yet By setting R1 + R2 = 806Ω, the gain equation reduces to A the analyzer input is typically 50Ω. The 4:1 turns (16:1 = R1(Ω). The voltage at the pins of the DAC is determined impedance) transformer and the two 402Ω resistors of by R1, R2, the voltage on V Figure 5, present the output of the LT6604-5 with a 1600Ω MID and the DAC output current. Consider Figure 4 with R1 = 49.9Ω and R2 = 750Ω. The differential load, or the equivalent of 800Ω to ground at voltage at V each output. The impedance seen by the network analyzer MID, for VS = 3.3V, is 1.65V. The voltage at the DAC pins is given by: input is still 50Ω, reducing refl ections in the cabling be- tween the transformer and analyzer input. R1 R1•R2 VDAC = VMID • +I R1+R2 +806 IN R1+R2

The limiting networks between the LT6604-5 and other devices. The function begins to take effect at output signal levels previous examples assume an ideal (0Ω) source impedance above 2VP-P and it becomes noticeable above 3.5VP-P. and a large (1k) load resistance.
