where RL is the load resistor in the drains of Q3 and Q8, and  
RS is the resistor connected between the sources of the input  
transistors Q4 and Q7. The connections for various RS com-  
binations are brought out to device pins LNPGS1, LNPGS2,  
and LNPGS3 (pins 13-15 for channel A, 22-24 for channel B).  
These Gain Strap pins allow the user to establish one of four  
fixed LNP gain options as shown in Table I.

The LNP is capable of generating a 2VPP differential signal.  
The maximum signal at the LNP input is therefore 2VPP  
divided by the LNP gain. An input signal greater than this  
would exceed the linear range of the LNP, an especially  
important consideration at low LNP gain settings.

The VCA2611 is an upgraded version of the VCA2616. The  
only difference between the VCA2616 and the VCA2611 is the  
input structure to the LNP. The VCA2616 is limited to 0.3V  
negative-going input spikes; the VCA2611 is limited to 2.0V  
negative-going input spikes. This change allows the user to  
use slower and less expensive input clamping diodes prior to  
the LNA input. In some designs, input clamping may not be  
required.  
It is also possible to create other gain settings by connecting  
an external resistor between LNPGS1 on one side, and  
LNPGS2 and/or LNPGS3 on the other. In that case, the  
internal resistor values (see Figure 4) should be combined  
with the external resistor to calculate the effective value of RS  
for use in Equation 1. The resulting expression for external  
resistor value is given in Equation 2:

ACTIVE FEEDBACK WITH THE LNP  
One of the key features of the LNP architecture is the ability  
to employ active-feedback termination to achieve superior  
noise performance. Active-feedback termination achieves a  
lower noise figure than conventional shunt termination, es-  
sentially because no signal current is wasted in the termina-  
tion resistor itself. Another way to understand this is to  
consider first that the input source, at the far end of the signal  
cable, has a cable-matching source resistance of RS. Using  
conventional shunt termination at the LNP input, a second  
terminating resistor of value RS is connected to ground.  
Therefore, the signal loss is 6dB due to the voltage divider  
action of the series and shunt RS resistors. The effective  
source resistance has been reduced by the same factor of 2,  
where REXT is the externally selected resistor value needed  
to achieve the desired gain setting, RS1 is the fixed parallel  
resistor in Figure 4, and RFIX is the effective fixed value of the  
remaining internal resistors: RS2, RS3, or (RS2 || RS3), de-  
pending on the pin connections.  
Note that the best process and temperature stability will be  
achieved by using the pre-programmed fixed-gain options of  
Table I, since the gain is then set entirely by internal resistor  
ratios, which are typically accurate to ±0.5%, and track quite  
well over process and temperature. When combining exter-  
nal resistors with the internal values to create an effective RS  
value, note that the internal resistors have a typical tempera-  
ture coefficient of +700ppm/°C and an absolute value toler-  
ance of approximately ±5%, yielding somewhat less predict-  
able and stable gain settings. With or without external resis-  
tors, the board layout should use short Gain Strap connec-  
tions to minimize parasitic resistance and inductance effects.  
but the noise contribution has been reduced by only the 2  
,
only a 3dB reduction. Therefore, the net theoretical SNR  
degradation is 3dB, assuming a noise-free amplifier input. (In  
practice, the amplifier noise contribution will degrade both  
the unterminated and the terminated noise figures, some-  
what reducing the distinction between them.)  
The overall noise performance of the VCA2616 and VCA2611  
will vary as a function of gain. Table II shows the typical input-  
and-output-referred noise densities of the entire VCA2616 and  
VCA2611 for maximum VCA and PGA gain; that is, VCACNTL  
set to 3.0V and all MGS bits set to 1. Note that the input-  
referred noise values include the contribution of a 50fixed  
source impedance, and are therefore somewhat larger than  
the intrinsic input noise. As the LNP gain is reduced, the noise  
contribution from the VCA/PGA portion becomes more signifi-  
cant, resulting in higher input-referred noise. However, the  
output-referred noise, which is indicative of the overall SNR at  
that gain setting, is reduced.  
See Figure 5 for an amplifier using active feedback. This  
diagram appears very similar to a traditional inverting ampli-  
fier. However, the analysis is somewhat different because  
the gain A in this case is not a very large open-loop op amp  
gain; rather, it is the relatively low and controlled gain of the  
LNP itself. Thus, the impedance at the inverting amplifier  
terminal will be reduced by a finite amount, as given in the  
familiar relationship of Equation 3:

where RF is the feedback resistor (supplied externally be-  
tween the LNPINP and FB terminals for each channel), A is  
To preserve the low-noise performance of the LNP, the user  
should take care to minimize resistance in the input lead. A  
parasitic resistance of only 10will contribute 0.4nV/Hz
