The AD8129/AD8130 are differential-to-single-ended amplifiers
with extremely high CMRR at high frequency. Therefore, they
can also be effectively used as high speed instrumentation amps
or for converting differential signals to single-ended signals.
The AD8129 is a low noise, high gain (10 or greater) version
in
tended for applications over very long cables, where signal
attenuation is significant. The AD8130 is stable at a gain of 1
and can be used for applications where lower gains are required.
Both have user-adjustable gain to help compensate for losses in
the transmission line. The gain is set by the ratio of two resistor
values. The AD8129/AD8130 have very high input impedance
on both inputs, regardless of the gain setting.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8129/AD8130 are designed as receivers for the
transmission of high speed signals over twisted-pair cables to
work with the AD8131 or AD8132 drivers. Either can be used
f
or analog or digital video signals and for high speed data
transmission.

The AD8129/AD8130 have excellent common-mode rejection
(70 dB @ 10 MHz), allowing the use of low cost, unshielded
twisted-pair cables without fear of corruption by external noise
sources or crosstalk. The AD8129/AD8130 have a wide power
supply range from single +5 V to ±12 V, allowing wide commonmode and differential-mode voltage ranges while maintaining
signal integrity. The wide common-mode voltage range enables
the driver-receiver pair to operate without isolation transformers
in many systems where the ground potential difference between
drive and receive locations is many volts. The AD8129/AD8130
have considerable cost and performance improvements over
op amps and other multiamplifier receiving solutions.

THERMAL RESISTANCE
θJA is specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, θJA is
specified for the device soldered in a circuit board in still air.
The maximum safe power dissipation in the AD8129/AD8130
packages is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature (T
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 AD8129/AD8130.
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.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8129/AD8130 use an architecture called active feedback,
which differs from that of conventional op amps. The most
obvious differentiating feature is the presence of two separate
pairs of differential inputs compared with a conventional op
amp’s single pair. Typically, for the active feedback architecture,
one of these input pairs is driven by a differential input signal,
while the other is used for the feedback. This active stage in the
feedback path is where the term active feedback is derived.
Therefore, the input dynamic ranges are limited to about
or the AD8130 and 0.5 V for the AD8129 (see the
2.5 V f
AD8129/AD8130 Specifications section for more detail). For
his and other reasons, it is not recommended to reverse the
t
input and feedback stages of the AD8129/AD8130, even though
some apparently normal functionality may be observed under
some conditions. A few simple circuits can illustrate how the
active feedback architecture of the AD8129/AD8130 operates.
The active feedback architecture offers several advantages over a
c
onventional op amp in many types of applications. Among these
are excellent common-mode rejection, wide input common-mode
range, and a pair of inputs that are high impedance and completely
balanced in a typical application. In addition, while an external
feedback network establishes the gain response as in a conventional
op amp, its separate path makes it completely independent of
the signal input. This eliminates any interaction between the
feedback and input circuits, which traditionally causes problems
with CMRR in conventional differential-input op amp circuits.
Another advantage is the ability to change the polarity of the
ga
in merely by switching the differential inputs. A high inputimpedance inverting amplifier can be made. Besides a high
input impedance, a unity-gain inverter with the AD8130 has
a noise gain of unity. This produces lower output noise and
higher bandwidth than op amps that have noise gain equal
to 2 for a unity-gain inverter.
The two differential input stages of the AD8129/AD8130 are
ach transconductance stages that are well matched. These stages
e
convert the respective differential input voltages to internal
currents. The currents are then summed and converted to a
voltage, which is buffered to drive the output. The compensation
capacitor is in the summing circuit.
When the feedback path is closed around the part, the output
dr
ives the feedback input to the voltage that causes the internal
currents to sum to 0. This occurs when the two differential
inputs are equal and opposite; that is, their algebraic sum is 0.
In a closed-loop application, a conventional op amp has its
dif
ferential input voltage driven to near 0 under nontransient
conditions. The AD8129/AD8130 generally has differential
input voltages at each of its input pairs, even under equilibrium
conditions. As a practical consideration, it is necessary to limit
the differential input voltage internally with a clamp circuit.
OP AMP CONFIGURATION
If only one of the input stages of the AD8129/AD8130 is used, it
functions very much like a conventional op amp (see Figure 131).
lassical inverting and noninverting op amps circuits can be
C
created, and the basic governing equations are the same as for a
conventional op amp. The unused input pins form the second
input and should be shorted together and tied to ground or a
midsupply voltage when they are not used.

With the unused pair of inputs shorted, there is no differential
voltage between them. This dictates that the differential input
voltage of the used inputs is also 0 for closed-loop applications.
Because this is the governing principle of conventional op amp
circuits, an active feedback amplifier can function as a
conventional op amp under these conditions.
Note that this circuit is presented only for illustration purposes
t
o show the similarities of the active feedback architecture
functionality to conventional op amp functionality. If it is
desired to design a circuit that can be created from a conventional op amp, it is recommended to choose a conventional
op amp with specifications that are better suited to that application.
These op amp principles are the basis for offsetting the output,
as described in the

APPLICATIONS
BASIC GAIN CIRCUITS
The gain of the AD8129/AD8130 can be set with a pair of
feedback resistors. The basic configuration is shown in Figure 132.
in equation is the same as that of a conventional op amp:
The ga
G = 1 + R
can be set to 0 (short circuit), and RG can be removed (see
R
F
Figure 133). The AD8129 is compensated to operate at gains of
10 a
nd higher; therefore, shorting the feedback path to obtain
unity gain causes oscillation.
The input signal can be applied either differentially or in a
single-ended fashion—all that matters is the magnitude of the
differential signal between the two inputs. For single-ended
input applications, applying the signal to the +IN with −IN
grounded creates a noninverting gain, while reversing these
connections creates an inverting gain. Because the two inputs
are high impedance and matched, both of these conditions
provide the same high input impedance. Thus, an advantage of
the active feedback architecture is the ability to make a high
input impedance inverting op amp. If conventional op amps are
used, a high impedance buffer followed by an inverting stage is
needed. This requires two op amps.

TWISTED-PAIR CABLE, COMPOSITE VIDEO
RECEIVER WITH EQUALIZATION USING AN AD8130
The AD8130 has excellent common-mode rejection at its
inputs. This makes it an ideal candidate for a receiver for signals
that are transmitted over long distances on twisted-pair cables.
Category 5 cables are very common in office settings and are
extensively used for data transmission. These cables can also be
used for the analog transmission of signals such as video.
These long cables pick up noise from the environment they pass
t
hrough. This noise does not favor one conductor over another
and therefore is a common-mode signal. A receiver that rejects
the common-mode signal on the cable can greatly enhance the
signal-to-noise ratio performance of the link.
The AD8130 is also very easy to use as a differential receiver,
ecause the differential inputs and the feedback inputs are
b
entirely separate. This means that there is no interaction
between the feedback network and the termination network,
as there would be in conventional op amp types of receivers.
Another issue with long cables is that there is more attenuation
f the signal at longer distances. Attenuation is also a function
o
of frequency; it increases to roughly the square root of frequency.
For good fidelity of video circuits, the overall frequency
sponse of the transmission channel should be flat vs.
re
frequency. Because the cable attenuates the high frequencies, a
frequency-selective boost circuit can be used to undo this effect.
These circuits are called equalizers.
An equalizer uses frequency-dependent elements (Ls and Cs) to
eate a frequency response that is the opposite of the rest of the
cr
channel’s response to create an overall flat response. There are
many ways to create such circuits, but a common technique is to
put the frequency-selective elements in the feedback path of an
op amp circuit. The AD8130 in particular makes this easier
than other circuits, because, once again, the feedback path is
completely independent of the input path and there is no
interaction.

It is difficult to calculate the exact component values via strictly
mathematical means, because the equations for the cable
attenuation are approximate and have functions that are not
simply related to the responses of RC networks. The method
used in this design was to approximate the required response
via graphical means from the frequency response and then
select components that would approximate this response. The
circuit was then built, measured, and finally adjusted to obtain
an acceptable response—in this case, flat to 9 MHz to within
approximately 1 dB (see

One way to accomplish this is to drive both REF and RG with
the desired offset signal (see Figure 139). Superposition can be
to solve this circuit. First, break the connection between

makes the circuit more complicated because it creates an

The voltage applied to the REF input (Pin 4) can also be a high

. Thus, the circuit has a gain of 2 and

with
High Input Impedance
This circuit offers several advantages over a conventional op
amp inverting summing circuit. First, the inputs are both high
impedance and the circuit is noninverting. It would require
significant additional circuitry to make an op amp summing
circuit that has high input impedance and is noninverting.
Another advantage is that the AD8130 circuit still preserves the
ndwidth of the part. In a conventional summing circuit,
full ba
the noise gain is increased for each additional input, so the
bandwidth response decreases accordingly. By this technique,
four signals can be summed by applying them to two AD8130s
and then summing the two outputs by a third AD8130.
CABLE-TAP AMPLIFIER
It is often desirable to have a video signal drive several pieces of
equipment. However, the cable should only be terminated once at
its endpoint; therefore, it is not appropriate to have a termination
at each device. A loop-through connection allows a device to tap
the video signal while not disturbing it by any excessive loading.

Such a connection, also referred to as a cable-tap amplifier, can
be simply made with an AD8130 (see Figure 143). The circuit is
nfigured with unity gain, and if no output offset is desired,
co
the REF pin is grounded. The negative differential input is
connected directly to the shield of the cable (or an associated
connector) at the point at which it wants to be tapped.

The center conductor connects to the positive differential input
of the AD8130. The amplitude of the video signal at this point is
unity, because it is between the two termination resistors. The
AD8130 provides a high impedance to this signal so that the
signal is not disturbed. A buffered unity-gain version of the
video signal appears at the output.
POWER-DOWN
The AD8129/AD8130 have a power-down pin that can be used
to lower the quiescent current when the amplifier is not being
used. A logic low level on the
down. Because there is no ground pin on the AD8129/AD8130,
there is no logic reference to interface to standard logic levels.
For this reason, the reference level for the
the AD8129/AD8130 are run with V
compatibility with logic families. However, if V

logic levels. A simple level-shifting circuit that is compatible

EXTREME OPERATING CONDITIONS
The AD8129/AD8130 are designed to provide high
performance over a wide range of supply voltages. However,
there are some extremes of operating conditions that have
been observed to produce suboptimal results. One of these
conditions occurs when the AD8130 is operated at unity gain
with low supply voltage—less than approximately ±4 V.
At unity gain, the output drives FB directly. With supplies of
±V
less than approximately ±4 V at unity gain, the output can
S
drive FB’s voltage too close to the rail for the circuit to stay
properly biased. This can lead to a parasitic oscillation.
A way to prevent this is to limit the input signal swing with
mp diodes. Common silicon-junction signal diodes like the
cla
1N4148 have a forward bias of approximately 0.7 V when about
1 mA of current flows through them. Two series pairs of such
diodes connected antiparallel across the differential inputs can
be used to clamp the input signal and prevent this condition. It
should be noted that the REF input can also shift the output
signal; therefore, this technique only works when REF is at
ground or close to it (see

Another problem can occur with the AD8129 operating
at a supply voltage of greater than or equal to ±12 V. The
architecture causes the supply current to increase as the input
differential voltage increases. If the AD8129 differential inputs
are overdriven too far, excessive current can flow into the device
and potentially cause permanent damage.
A practical means to prevent this from occurring is to clamp the
puts differentially with a pair of antiparallel Schottky diodes
in
(see Figure 146). These diodes have a lower forward voltage of
a
pproximately 0.4 V. If the differential voltage across the inputs
is restricted to these conditions, no excess current is drawn by
the AD8129 under these operating conditions.
If the supply voltage is restricted to less than ±11 V, the internal
cla
mping circuit limits the differential voltage and excessive
supply current is not drawn. The external clamp circuit is not
needed.

In both circuits, the input series resistors function to limit the
current through the diodes when they are forward biased. As a
practical matter, these resistors must be matched so that the
CMRR is preserved at high frequencies. These resistors have
minimal effect on the CMRR at low frequency.
POWER DISSIPATION
The AD8129/AD8130 can operate with supply voltages from
+5 V to ±12 V. The major reason for such a wide supply range is
to provide a wide input common-mode range for systems that
can require this. This would be encountered when significant
common-mode noise couples into the input path. For applications
that do not require a wide dynamic range for the input or output, it
is recommended to operate with lower supply voltages.
The power dissipation is a function of several operating
co
nditions, including the supply voltage, the input differential
voltage, the output load, and the signal frequency.
A basic starting point is to calculate the quiescent power
pation with no signal and no differential input voltage.
dissi
This is just the product of the total supply voltage and the
quiescent operating current. The maximum operating supply
voltage is 26.4 V, and the quiescent current is 13 mA. This
causes a quiescent power dissipation of 343 mW. For the
MSOP package, the θ
specification is 142°C/W. Therefore,
JA
the quiescent power causes about a 49°C rise above ambient
in the MSOP package.
The current consumption is also a function of the differential
in
put voltage (see Figure 113 and Figure 114). This current
ould be added onto the quiescent current and then multiplied
sh
by the total supply voltage to calculate the power.
The AD8129/AD8130 can directly drive loads of as low as
100 Ω, s
uch as a terminated 50 Ω cable. The worst-case power
dissipation in the output stage occurs when the output is at
midsupply. As an example, for a 12 V supply with the output
driving a 250 Ω load to ground, the maximum power dissipation
in the output occurs when the output voltage is 6 V. The load
current is 6 V/250 Ω = 24 mA. This same current flows through
the output across a 6 V drop from V
. It dissipates 144 mW. For
S
the 8-lead MSOP package, this causes a temperature rise of
20°C above ambient. Although this is a worst-case number, it is
apparent that this can be a considerable additional amount of
power dissipation.
Several changes can be made to alleviate this. One is to use the
tandard 8-lead SOIC package. This lowers the thermal impedance
s
to 121°C/W, which is a 15% improvement. Another is to use a
lower supply voltage unless absolutely necessary.
Finally, do not use the AD8129/AD8130 when it is operating on
h supply voltages to directly drive a heavy load. It is best to
hig
use a second op amp after the output stage. Some of the gain
can be shifted to this stage so that the signal swing at the output
of the AD8129/AD8130 is not too large.
The AD8129/AD8130 is also available in a very small 8-lead
P package. This package has higher thermal impedance
MSO
than larger packages and operates at a higher temperature with
the same amount of power dissipation. Certain operating
conditions that are within the specifications range of the parts can
cause excess power dissipation. Caution should be exercised.

LAYOUT, GROUNDING, AND BYPASSING
The AD8129/AD8130 are very high speed parts that can be
sensitive to the PCB environment in which they operate.
Realizing their superior specifications requires attention to
various details of standard high speed PCB design practice.
The first requirement is for a good solid ground plane that
co
vers as much of the board area around the AD8129/AD8130
as possible. The only exception to this is that the ground plane
around the FB pin should be kept a few millimeters away, and
the ground should be removed from the inner layers and the
opposite side of the board under this pin. This minimizes the
stray capacitance on this node and helps preserve the gain
flatness vs. frequency.
The power supply pins should be bypassed as close as possible
to
the device to the nearby ground plane. Good high frequency
ceramic chip capacitors should be used, and the bypassing
should be done with a capacitance value of 0.01 μF to 0.1 μF for
each supply. Farther away, low frequency bypassing should be
provided with 10 μF tantalum capacitors from each supply to
ground.
The signal routing should be short and direct to avoid parasitic
fects. Where possible, signals should be run over ground
ef
planes to avoid radiating or to avoid being susceptible to other
radiation sources.
