Output Driver & gain Stage

The HMC960LP4E output driver consists of a differential class AB driver which is designed to drive typical ADC loads

directly or can drive up to 200 Ω in parallel with 50 pF to AC ground per differential output. The stage provides a

programmable 0 dB or 10 dB gain via switched resistors. Note that the output common mode of the driver is controlled

directly via an input pin and can be set as per “Table 1. Electrical Specifications”.
