FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LMH6553 is a 900 MHz differential amplifier with
23
900 MHz 3 dB Small Signal
an integrated adjustable output limiting clamp. The
Bandwidth @ A
V
= 1
clamp increases system performance and provides
670 MHz 3 dB Large Signal
transient over-voltage protection to following stages.
Bandwidth @ A
V
= 1
The internal clamp feature of the LMH6553 reduces
or eliminates the need for external discrete overload

protection networks. When used to drive ADCs, the
92 dB IMD3 @ f

damaged by large input signals appearing at the
system input. Fast overdrive recovery of 600 ps
40 mV Clamp Accuracy with 100% Overdrive
ensures the amplifier output rapidly recovers from a

4.5 to 12 Supply Voltage Operation
input signal. The LMH6553 delivers exceptional
bandwidth, distortion, and noise performance ideal for
driving ADCs up to 14-bits. The LMH6553 could also
