3 Description
The TRF0208-SEP is a very high performance
fully differential amplifier (FDA) optimized for radio
frequency (RF) applications. This device is excellent
for ac-coupled applications that require a singleended
to differential conversion when driving an
analog-to-digital converter (ADC) such as the highperformance
AFE7950-SEP or ADC12DJ5200-SEP.
The on-chip matching components simplify printed
circuit board (PCB) implementation and provide the
highest performance over the usable bandwidth. The
device is fabricated in Texas Instruments’ advanced
complementary BiCMOS process and is available in a
space-saving, WQFN-FCRLF package.
The TRF0208-SEP operates on a single-rail supply
and consumes about 138mA of active current. A
power-down feature is available for power saving.
