The AD8018 is a 5V, rail-to-rail, high-output current xDSL line drive amplifier. It is an ideal amplifier for USB, PCMCIA, or PCI-based customer premise equipment (CPE). The AD8018 provides maximum reach on a 5V supply, driving 16 dBm of power into a back-terminated, transformer-coupled 100-ohm load while maintaining -82 dBc of out-of-band SFDR. The amplifier features rail-to-rail output voltage and high output current drive, with the ability to drive 400 mA of output current into a differential load of 10 ohms at 8V p-p. It has low single-tone distortion of -86 dBc worst harmonic at 6V p-p into a differential 10-ohm load at 100 kHz. The AD8018 also has low noise, low power operation, high speed, and current feedback amplifiers.
