3 Description

The TRF0208-SEP is a very high performance

fully differential amplifier (FDA) optimized for radio

frequency (RF) applications. This device is excellent

for ac-coupled applications that require a singleended

to differential conversion when driving an

analog-to-digital converter (ADC) such as the highperformance

AFE7950-SEP or ADC12DJ5200-SEP.

The on-chip matching components simplify printed

circuit board (PCB) implementation and provide the

highest performance over the usable bandwidth. The

device is fabricated in Texas Instruments’ advanced

complementary BiCMOS process and is available in a

space-saving, WQFN-FCRLF package.

The TRF0208-SEP operates on a single-rail supply

and consumes about 138mA of active current. A

power-down feature is available for power saving.
