FEATURES
digitally controlled attenuator and a high linearity,
differential output, amplifier. All circuitry has been
optimized for low distortion and maximum system
design flexibility. Power consumption is managed by
a three-state enable pin. Individual channels can be
disabled or placed into a Low Power Mode or a
higher performance, High Power Mode.

Disable Function for Each Channel
Parallel and Serial Gain Control
The LMH6522 digitally controlled attenuator provides
precise 1dB gain steps over a 31dB range. The digital
attenuator can be controlled by either a SPI™ Serial
bus or a high speed parallel bus.
Low Power Mode for Power Management
Flexibility
The output amplifier has a differential output, allowing
large signal swings on a single 5V supply. The low
impedance output provides maximum flexibility when
driving a wide range filter designs or analog to digital
converters. For applications which have very large
changes in signal level LMH6522 can support up to
62dB of gain range by cascading channels.

DESCRIPTION
Performance Curve
The LMH6522 contains four, high performance,
digitally controlled variable gain amplifiers (DVGA). It
has been designed for use in narrowband and
broadband IF sampling applications. Typically, the
LMH6522 drives a high performance ADC in a broad
range of mixed signal and digital communication
applications such as mobile radio and cellular base
stations where automatic gain control (AGC) is
required to increase system dynamic range.
