GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4859-3 (triple) is a single-supply, high speed current
feedback amplifier with an integrated charge pump that eliminates
the need for negative supplies in order to output negative voltages
or output a 0 V level for video applications. The 195 MHz, large
signal −3 dB bandwidth at a fixed gain of 2, as well as the 740 V/μs
slew rate, make this amplifier ideal for high resolution professional
and consumer video applications. The amplifier also has a wide
input common-mode voltage range that extends from 1.8 V
below ground to 1.2 V below the positive rail at 5 V supply.

This triple video amplifier is designed to operate on supply
voltages of 3.3 V to 5 V, using only 38 mA total quiescent
current, including the charge pump. To further reduce the
power consumption, it is equipped with a power-down feature
that lowers the total supply current to as low as 2 mA when the
amplifier is not being used. Even in power-down mode, the
charge pump can be used to power external components. The
maximum output current for external use is 50 mA at −3 V.
The ADA4858-3 is available in a 16-lead LFCSP, and it is designed
to work over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +105°C.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the
ADA4859-3 is limited by the associated rise in junction
temperature. The maximum safe junction temperature
for plastic encapsulated devices is determined by the glass
transition temperature of the plastic, approximately 150°C.
Temporarily exceeding this limit may cause a shift in parametric
performance due to a change in the stresses exerted on the die
by the package. Exceeding a junction temperature of 175°C for
an extended period can result in device failure.
To ensure proper operation, it is necessary to observe the
maximum power derating curves in Figure 2.

THEORY OF OPERATION

OVERVIEW
The ADA4859-3 is a fixed gain of two, current feedback amplifier
designed for exceptional performance as a triple video amplifier. Its
specifications make it especially suitable for SD and HD video
applications. The ADA4859-3 provides HD video output on a
single supply as low as 3.0 V while only consuming 13 mA per
amplifier. It also features a power-down pin (PD) that reduces
the quiescent current to 4 mA when activated.
The ADA4859-3 can be used in applications that require both
ac- and dc-coupled inputs and outputs. The output stage on the
ADA4859-3 is capable of driving 2 V p-p video signals into two
doubly terminated video loads (150 Ω each) on a single 5 V supply.
The input range of the ADA4859-3 includes ground, whereas
the output range is limited by the output headroom set by the
voltage drop across two diodes from each rail, which occurs
1.2 V from the positive and negative supply rails.
CHARGE PUMP OPERATION
The on-board charge pump creates a negative supply for the
amplifier. It provides different negative voltages depending on
the power supply voltage. For a +5 V supply, the negative supply
generated is equal to −3 V with 150 mA of output supply current,
and for a +3.3 V supply, the negative supply is equal to −2 V
with 45 mA of output supply current.
Figure 30 shows the charging cycle when the supply voltage,
+V
, charges C1 through Φ1 to ground. During this cycle, C1
S
quickly charges to reach the +V
begins with switching Φ
Figure 31. When C1 = C2, the charge in C1 is divided between
the two capacitors and slowly increases the voltage in C2 until it
reaches a predetermined voltage (−3 V for the +5 V supply and
−2 V
for the +3.3 V supply). The typical charge pump charging and
discharging frequency is 550 kHz with a 150 Ω load and no input
signal. This frequency changes with the load current, and it can
get much slower if the amplifier is powered down and no external
current is used.

Figure 31. Discharging Cycle
The ADA4859-3 specifications make it especially suitable for SD
and HD video applications. It also allows dc-coupled video signal
with its black level set to 0 V and its sync tip down to −300 mV
for YPbPr video.
The charge pump is always on, even when the power-down pin
(PD) is enabled and the amplifier is off. However, it would be in
an idle state if the negative current were not used. Each amplifier
needs −6.3 mA of current, which totals −19 mA for all three
amplifiers. This means additional negative current may be available
by the charge pump for external use. Pin 4 (CPO) is the charge
pump output, which provides access to the negative supply
generated by the charge pump. Placing a 1 μF charge capacitor at
the CPO pin is essential to hold the charge and regulate the ripple.
If the negative supply is used to power another device in the
system, it is only possible for the 5 V supply operation. In the
3.3 V supply operation, the charge pump output current is very
limited. The capacitor at the CPO pin, which regulates the ripple
of the negative voltage, can be used as a coupling capacitor for the
external device. However, the charge pump current should be
limited to a maximum of 50 mA for external use. When powering
down the ADA4859-3, the charge pump is not affected and its
output voltage and current remain available for external use.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
USING THE ADA4859-3 IN GAINS EQUAL TO +1, −1
The ADA4859-3 was designed to offer outstanding video
performance, simplify applications, and minimize board area.
The ADA4859-3 is a triple amplifier with on-chip feedback
and gain set resistors. The gain is fixed internally at G = +2. The
inclusion of the on-chip resistors not only simplifies the design
of the application but also eliminates six surface-mount resistors,
saving valuable board space and lowering assembly costs.
Although the ADA4859-3 has a fixed gain of G = +2, it can be
used in other gain configurations, such as G = −1 and G = +1.
Unity-Gain Operation
Option 1
There are two options for obtaining unity gain (G = +1). The
first is shown in Figure 32. In this configuration, the −IN input
pin is tied to the output. (Feedback is provided through the two
internal 550 Ω resistors in parallel), and the input is applied to
the noninverting input. The noise gain for this configuration is 1.

Option 2
Another option exists for running the ADA4859-3 as a unitygain amplifier. In this configuration, the noise gain is +2, see
Figure 33. The frequency response and transient response for
this configuration closely match the gain of +2 plots because the
noise gains are equal. This method does have twice the noise
gain of Option 1; however, in applications that do not require low
noise, Option 2 offers less peaking and ringing. By tying the inputs
together, the net gain of the amplifier becomes +1. Equation 1
shows the transfer characteristic for the schematic shown in
Figure 33.

POWER-DOWN
The ADA4859-3 is equipped with a PD (power-down) pin for
all three amplifiers. This allows the user the ability to reduce
the quiescent supply current when an amplifier is not active.
The power-down threshold levels are derived from ground
level. The amplifiers are powered down when the voltage
applied to the PD pin is greater than a certain voltage from
ground. In a 5 V supply application, the voltage is greater than 2 V,
and in a 3.3 V supply application, the voltage is greater than 1.5 V.
The amplifier is enabled whenever the PD pin is left floating
(not connected). If the PD pin is not used, it is best to leave it
floating or connected to ground. Note that the power-down feature
does not control the charge pump output voltage and current.

Not Active <1.5 V <1 V
Active >2 V >1.5 V
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
As is the case with all high speed applications, careful attention
to printed circuit board (PCB) layout details prevents associated
board parasitics from becoming problematic. Proper RF design
technique is mandatory. The PCB should have a ground plane
covering all unused portions of the component side of the board to
provide a low impedance return path. Removing the ground
plane on all layers from the area near the input and output pins
reduces stray capacitance. Locate termination resistors and loads as
close as possible to their respective inputs and outputs. Keep
input and output traces as far apart as possible to minimize
coupling (crosstalk) through the board. Adherence to
microstrip or stripline design techniques for long signal traces
(greater than about 1 inch) is recommended.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
Careful attention must be paid to bypassing the power supply
pins of the ADA4859-3. Use high quality capacitors with low
equivalent series resistance (ESR), such as multilayer ceramic
capacitors (MLCCs), to minimize supply voltage ripple and
power dissipation. A large, usually tantalum, 10 μF to 47 μF
capacitor located in proximity to the ADA4859-3 is required to
provide good decoupling for lower frequency signals. In
addition, locate 0.1 μF MLCC decoupling capacitors as close to
each of the power supply pins as is physically possible, no more
than 1/8-inch away. The ground returns should terminate
immediately into the ground plane. Locating the bypass capacitor
return close to the load return minimizes ground loops and
improves performance.
