The LT®6554 is a high-speed triple video buffer with an
internally fixed gain of 1. The individual buffers are optimized for performance with a 1k load and feature a
2V
full signal bandwidth of 400MHz, making them ideal
P–P
for driving very high-resolution video signals. Separate
power supply pins for each amplifier boost channel separation to 90dB, allowing the LT6554 to excel in many highspeed applications.
While the performance of the LT6554 is optimized for dual
supply operation, it can also be used on a single supply as
low as 4.5V. Using dual 5V supplies, each amplifier draws
only 8mA. When disabled, the amplifiers draw less than
100µA and the outputs become high impedance. Further-
more, the amplifiers are capable of turning on in less than
50ns, making them suitable for multiplexing and portable
applications.
The LT6554 is manufactured on Linear Technology’s
proprietary low voltage complementary bipolar process
and is available in the 16-lead SSOP package that fits in the
same PCB area as an SO-8 package.

Power Supplies
The LT6554 is optimized for ±5V supplies but can be
operated on as little as ±2.25V or a single 4.5V supply and
as much as ±6V or a single 12V supply. Internally, each
supply is independent to improve channel isolation. Do
not leave any supply pins disconnected!
Enable/Shutdown
The LT6554 has a TTL compatible shutdown mode controlled by the EN pin and referenced to the DGND pin. If the
amplifier will be enabled at all times, the EN pin can be
connected directly to DGND. If the enable function is
desired, either driving the pin above 2V or allowing the
internal 46k pull-up resistor to pull the EN pin to the top rail
will disable the amplifier. When disabled, the output will
become very high impedance. Supply current into the
amplifier in the disabled state will be primarily through V
and approximately equal to (V+ – VEN)/46k.
It is important that the two following constraints on the
DGND pin and the EN pin are always followed:
V+ – V
VEN – V
Split supplies of ±3V to ±5.5V will satisfy these require-
ments with DGND connected to 0V.
In single supply applications above 5.5V, an additional
resistor may be needed from the EN pin to DGND if the pin
is ever allowed to float. For example, on a 12V single
supply, a 33k resistor to ground would protect the pin from
floating too high while still allowing the internal pull-up
resistor to disable the part.
On dual ±2.25V supplies, connecting the EN and DGND
pins to V– is the easiest way of ensuring that V+ – V
is more than 3V.
The DGND pin should not be pulled above the EN pin since
doing so will turn on an ESD protection diode. If the EN pin
voltage is forced a diode drop below the DGND pin, current
should be limited to 10mA or less.
The enable/disable times of the LT6554 are fast when
driven with a logic input. Turn on (from 50% EN input to
50% output) typically occurs in less than 50ns. Turn off is
slower, but is nonetheless below 300ns.

Input Considerations
The LT6554 input voltage range is from V– + 1V to V+ – 1V
and is therefore larger than the output swing. The inputs
can be driven beyond the point at which the output clips so
long as input currents are limited to below ±10mA.
Layout and Grounding
It is imperative that care is taken in PCB layout in order to
utilize the very high speed and very low crosstalk of the
LT6554. Separate power and ground planes are highly
recommended and trace lengths should be kept as short
as possible. If input traces must be run over a distance of
several centimeters, they should use a controlled impedance with either series or shunt terminations (nominally
50Ω or 75Ω) to maintain signal fidelity.
Care should be taken to minimize capacitance on the
LT6554’s output traces by increasing spacing between
traces and adjacent metal and by eliminating metal planes
in underlying layers. To drive cable or traces longer than
several centimeters, using the LT6553 with its fixed gain
of +2 in conjunction with series and load termination
resistors may provide better results.
A plot of LT6554 performance driving a 1k load with
various trace lengths is shown in Figure 1. All data is from
a 4-layer board with 2oz copper, 18mil of board layer
thickness to the ground plane, a trace width of 12mils and
spacing to adjacent metal of 18mils. The 0.2cm output
trace places the 1k resistor as close to the part as possible,
while the other curves show the load resistor consecutively further away. The worst case, 4cm, trace has almost
10pF of parasitic capacitance.
In order to counteract any peaking in the frequency response from driving a capacitive load, a series resistance
can be inserted in the line at the output of the part to flatten
the response. Figure 2 shows the frequency response with
the same 4cm trace from Figure 1, now with a 10Ω series
resistor inserted near the output pin of the LT6554. Note
that using a 10Ω series resistor with a 1k load only
decreases the output amplitude by 0.1dB or 1% and has a
minimal effect on the bandwidth of the system. See the
graph labeled “Maximum Capacitive Load vs Output Series Resistor” in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section for more information.

To maintain the LT6554’s channel isolation, it is beneficial
to shield parallel input and output traces using a ground
plane or power supply traces. Vias between topside and
backside metal are recommended to maintain a low
inductance ground, especially between closely spaced
signal traces.

While the AGND pins on the LT6554 are not connected to
the amplifier circuitry, tying them to ground or another
“quiet” node significantly increases channel isolation and
is always recommended. The AGND pins do have ESD
protection and therefore should not be connected to
potentials outside the power supply range.
Single Supply Operation
Figure 3 illustrates how to use the LT6554 with a single
supply ranging from 4.5V to 12V. Since the output range
is comparable to the input range, the DC bias point at the
input can be set anywhere between the supplies that will
prevent the AC-coupled signal from running into the
output range limits. As shown, the DC input level is midsupply.
The only additional power dissipation in the single supply
configuration is through the resistor bias string at the
input and through any load resistance at the output. In
many cases, the output can be used to directly drive other
single supply devices without additional coupling and
without any resistive load.
ESD Protection
The LT6554 has reverse-biased ESD protection diodes on
all pins. If any pins are forced a diode drop above the
positive supply or a diode drop below the negative supply,
large currents may flow through these diodes. If the
current is kept below 10mA, no damage to the device will
occur.
4.5V TO 12V
Low ESL/ESR bypass capacitors should be placed as close
to the positive and negative supply pins as possible. One
4700pF ceramic capacitor is recommended for both V
+
and V–. Additional 470pF ceramic capacitors with minimal
trace length on each supply pin will further improve AC and
transient response as well as channel isolation. For high
current drive and large-signal transient applications, additional 1µF to 10µF tantalums should be added on each

RGB Buffer Demo Board
The DC794 Demo Board illustrates optimal routing,
bypassing and termination using the LT6554 as an
RGB video buffer. The schematic is shown in Figure 4. All
inputs and outputs are routed to have a characteristic
impedance of 75Ω. The 75Ω input shunt and output series
terminations are connected as close to the part as possible. While the 75Ω back termination resistors at the
outputs of the LT6554 minimize signal reflections in the
output traces and isolate the part from any capacitive
loading in those traces, they also contribute to gain error
if the output is not terminated with high impedance. For
example, if the output is terminated with a 1k load, the 75Ω
back termination will cause a 7% gain error. Decreasing
the value of the back termination resistors will decrease
the signal attenuation but may compromise the AC response. However, connecting the LT6554 outputs to the
output traces on the DC794 board without some series
resistance is not recommended; 10Ω to 20Ω is generally
sufficient.
A fourth signal trace is provided at the bottom of the
DC794 demo board with dimensions identical to the

trace can be used for calibrating the effects of electrical
delay and impedance mismatching and is not necessary
in an end-user application. Jumpers and additional connectors are also included to allow for evaluation of the
enable feature and single supply operation.
RGB Video Selector/Cable Driver
A video multiplexer can be implemented using the EN pins
of parallel LT6554s as shown in Figure 5. In this application, the corresponding outputs are connected together
and one LT6554 is switched on while the other is switched
off. A fast inverter provides a complementary signal to
ensure that only one set of R, G and B channels is buffered
at any time.
Since the output impedance of a disabled LT6554 is very
high, adding additional channels will not resistively load
an enabled output. However, since the disabled LT6554
has around 6pF of capacitance, it may be desirable to
resistively isolate the outputs of each channel to maintain
flat frequency response as shown in the graph labeled
“Maximum Capacitive Load vs Output Series Resistor” in
the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
