Figure 44. Single-Ended Input to Differential
Output Amplifier
Input Common-Mode Voltage Range
The input common-model voltage of a fully differential
operational amplifier is the voltage at the (+) and (鈥?
input pins of the operational amplifier.
It is important to not violate the input common-mode
voltage range (V
ICR
) of the operational amplifier.
Assuming the operational amplifier is in linear oper-
ation the voltage across the input pins is only a few
millivolts at most. So finding the voltage at one input
pin determines the input common-mode voltage of
the operational amplifier.
Treating the negative input as a summing node, the
voltage is given by

To determine the V
ICR
of the operational amplifier, the
voltage at the negative input is evaluated at the
extremes of V

.
As the gain of the operational amplifier increases, the
input common-mode voltage becomes closer and
closer to the input common-mode voltage of the
source.

The THS4511 can be used to amplify and convert
single-ended input signals to differential output sig-
