Product Summary

The LMH6518SQE is a digitally controlled variable gain amplifier whose total gain can be varied from -1.16 dB to 38.8 dB for a 40 dB range in 2 dB steps. The -3 dB bandwidth is 900 MHz at all gains. Gain accuracy at each setting is typically 0.1 dB. When used in conjunction with a National Semiconductor Gsample/second (Gsps) ADC with adjustable full scale (FS) range, its gain adjustment will accommodate full scale input signals from 6.8 mVPP to 920 mVPP to get 700 mVPP nominal at the ADC input. The Auxiliary output ("+OUT Aux" and "-OUT Aux") follows the Main output and is intended for use in Oscilloscope trigger function circuitry but may have other uses in other applications.
