THS4140: Adding a BIT voltage to a fully-differential THS4140

Part Number: THS4140

Adding a programmable BIT voltage (like from a DAC) to a summing amplifier stage (In front of an ADC) is straightforward. It's just a second summing node from a voltage source through an impedance. The goal being a short BIT sequence to add, say, a 0.5V test voltage on top of a signal already there just to see if the gain from a sensor stage is operating properly.

However, when using a fully-differential stage like a THS4140, there is no straightforward way of doing this. There doesn't seem to be a clean way of doing this short of using analog switches to switch in/out a separate voltage source instead of the differential sensor. (There isn't a fully-differential "summing" opamp)

Has anyone seen anything clever that I might be missing? I hate to convert to a non-differential opamp just to be able to add BIT capability.

Thanks...
