GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD8139 is an ultralow noise, high performance differential

amplifier with rail-to-rail output. With its low noise, high

SFDR, and wide bandwidth, it is an ideal choice for driving

ADCs with resolutions to 18 bits. The AD8139 is easy to apply,

and its internal common-mode feedback architecture allows its

output common-mode voltage to be controlled by the voltage

applied to one pin. The internal feedback loop also provides

outstanding output balance as well as suppression of even-order

harmonic distortion products. Fully differential and single-

ended-to-differential gain configurations are easily realized by

the AD8139. Simple external feedback networks consisting of

four resistors determine the closed-loop gain of the amplifier.

The AD8139 is manufactured on the Analog Devices, Inc.

proprietary, second-generation XFCB process, enabling it to

achieve low levels of distortion with input voltage noise of only

2.25 nV/√Hz.

The AD8139 is available in an 8-lead SOIC package with an

exposed paddle (EP) on the underside of its body and a 3 mm ×

3 mm LFCSP. It is rated to operate over the temperature range

of −40°C to +125°C.
