The AD8138 is a major advancement over op amps for
differential signal processing. The AD8138 can be used as a
single-ended-to-differential amplifier or as a differential-todifferential amplifier. The AD8138 is as easy to use as an op
amp and greatly simplifies differential signal amplification and
driving. Manufactured on ADI’s proprietary XFCB bipolar
process, the AD8138 has a −3 dB bandwidth of 320 MHz and
delivers a differential signal with the lowest harmonic distortion
available in a differential amplifier. The AD8138 has a unique
internal feedback feature that provides balanced output gain
and phase matching, suppressing even order harmonics. The
internal feed-back circuit also minimizes any gain error that
would be associated with the mismatches in the external gain
setting resistors.
The AD8138’s differential output helps balance the input to
differential ADCs, maximizing the performance of the ADC.

The AD8138 eliminates the need for a transformer with high
performance ADCs, preserving the low frequency and dc information. The common-mode level of the differential output is
adjustable by a voltage on the V
pin, easily level-shifting the
OCM
input signals for driving single-supply ADCs. Fast overload
recovery preserves sampling accuracy.
The AD8138 distortion performance makes it an ideal ADC
driver for communication systems, with distortion performance
good enough to drive state-of-the-art 10-bit to 16-bit converters
at high frequencies. The AD8138’s high bandwidth and IP3 also
make it appropriate for use as a gain block in IF and baseband
signal chains. The AD8138 offset and dynamic performance
makes it well suited for a wide variety of signal processing and
data acquisition applications.
The AD8138 is available in both SOIC and MSOP packages for
operation over −40°C to +85°C temperatures.

The maximum safe power dissipation in the AD8138 packages
is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature (T
the die. At approximately 150°C, which is the glass transition
temperature, the plastic changes its properties. Even temporarily
exceeding this temperature limit can change the stresses that the
package exerts on the die, permanently shifting the parametric
performance of the AD8138. Exceeding a junction temperature
of 150°C for an extended period can result in changes in the
silicon devices, potentially causing failure.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
