AD8351ARM-REEL7

Overview

The AD8351ARM-REEL7 is a low-cost differential amplifier designed for RF and IF applications up to 2.2 GHz. It features single-supply operation from 3 V to 5.5 V with a typical current consumption of 28 mA. The device offers a voltage gain range of 0 dB to 26 dB, adjustable via a single external resistor. Key electrical specifications include a -3 dB bandwidth of 2.2 GHz at 12 dB gain, an output IP3 of 31 dBm at 70 MHz, and a P1dB compression point of approximately 13.3 dBm. It provides a nominal 150 Ω differential output impedance and includes power-down capability.

Feature Summary

• Differential interface with low noise input stage
• Single-resistor programmable gain control
• Adjustable output common-mode voltage
• Fast settling and overdrive recovery

Applications

• Differential ADC drivers
• Single-ended-to-differential conversion
• IF sampling receivers
• RF/IF gain blocks
• SAW filter interfacing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix REEL7 confirms tape and reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm the manufacturer is Analog Devices Inc. to ensure component authenticity. Check for moisture sensitivity labeling as indicated in distributor data. Ensure the revision level matches design requirements, as older revisions may exist. Validate that the operating temperature range meets system environmental constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high linearity and wide bandwidth in a compact form factor. The single-resistor gain setting simplifies circuit layout compared to multi-resistor configurations. Consider the 150 Ω differential output impedance for direct interfacing with specific transmission lines or ADC inputs. Evaluate power consumption against battery-operated constraints given the 28 mA supply current.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AD8351 series of low distortion differential amplifiers. It is functionally similar to the AD8351ACPZ-R7 but differs in package type, utilizing an MSOP-8 surface mount package instead of LFCSP. The REEL7 suffix indicates bulk tape and reel packaging for automated assembly processes.
