GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8390A is a high output current, low power consumption
differential amplifier. It is particularly well suited for the central
office (CO) driver interface in digital subscriber line systems
such as ADSL and ADSL2+. In full bias operation, the driver
delivers 20.4 dBm output power into low resistance loads while
compensating for hybrid and transformer insertion losses and
back termination resistors.
The AD8390A is available in a thermally enhanced LFCSP
package (16-lead LFCSP). Significant control and flexibility
in bias current have been designed into the AD8390A.
Four power modes are selectable via two digital inputs, PD0 and
PD1, providing three levels of driver bias and one power-down
state. In addition, the I
ADJ
pin is available for fine quiescent
current trimming to tailor the performance of the AD8390A.
The low power consumption, high output current, high output
voltage swing, and robust thermal packaging enable the
AD8390A to be used as the central office line driver in ADSL,
ADSL2+, and proprietary xDSL systems, as well as in other high
current applications requiring a differential amplifier.
