THS4551: THS4551IDGKT

Part Number: THS4551
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: THP210, TINA-TI

Hi All 
For differential amp THS4551IDGKT, How much gain we can set maximum .. is there any limit . 

Thanks 

  • Hi Sooraj,

    Thank you for your question. The maximum gain that can be set on a differential amplifier will depend on the desired bandwidth of the system, as well as the input parameters.

    Figure 7-1 demonstrates the bandwidth of the THS4551 at different gain values. For voltage feedback amplifiers, gain and bandwidth have an inverse relationship, meaning the higher the gain setting, the lower the bandwidth. More information on this principle can be found in our TI Precision Labs video series on op amp basics, linked here

    In general, the largest gain value we demonstrate in the datasheet is going to be 10 V/V, but a higher gain can be put on the amplifier as long as you are not violating the input conditions and output common-mode conditions outlined on pages 6, 8 and 11 of the datasheet (values depend on supply voltage).

    If additional bandwidth is needed, consider the THS4541 or for a device with a wider supply voltage range for wider output swing, THS4561

    Thank you,
    Rachel

  • Hi Rachel ,
    Thanks for the reply , In my case we are using an 1Khz signal and configured an gain of 40 . Will it work smoothly on this configuration and if not for 1khz signal what is the minimum suggested Gain we can keep for this . 

  • 1kHz will be fine at a gain of 40 for the THS4551, an alternate might be the THP210 precision FDA that would also work. 

  • Hello Sooraj,

    As Michael mentioned, that will be fine for the THS4551 depending on the desired bandwidth. 

    Additionally, we have many reference circuits built in TINA-TI available on the product page under "Design Tools & Simulation", linked here, that will help you to simulate your input and gain conditions on the amplifier. 

    Thank you,
    Rachel

  • Thanks Michael , can be configure gain more than 40 ... for 1Khz signal ... 

  • Thank u will check
