Analog Devices AD8331/AD8332 Ultralow Noise VGAs Datasheet
The AD8331/AD8332 are linear-in-dB, variable gain amplifiers optimized for ultrasound systems but usable up to 120 MHz. Each channel includes an ultralow noise preamplifier (LNA), a VGA with a 48 dB gain range, and a selectable postamplifier with adjustable output limiting.
These devices feature active input impedance matching suitable for high-speed differential ADCs. They operate on a single 5 V supply with a quiescent power consumption of 125 mW per channel and are available in various packages including QSOP, TSSOP, and LFCSP.
