POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING

A proper power supply bypassing comes very im-

portant for optimizing the performance in high fre-

quency range. Bypass capacitors should be

placed as close as possible to the IC pins to im-

prove high frequency bypassing. A capacitor

greater than 1µF is necessary to minimize the dis-

tortion. For a better quality bypassing a capacitor

of 10nF is added following the same condition of

implementation. These bypass capacitors must be

incorporated for the negative and the positive sup-

ply.

The TS615 operates from 12V down to 5V power

supplies. This is achieved with a dual power sup-

ply of ±6V and ±2.5V or a single power supply of

12V and 5V referenced to the ground. In the case

of this asymmetrical supplying, a new biasing is

22/27

necessary to assume a positive output dynamic

range between 0V and +VCC supply rails. Consid-

ering the values of VOH and VOL, the amplifier will

provide an output dynamic from +0.5V to 10.6V on

25Ω load for a 12V supplying, from 0.45V to 3.8V

on 10Ω load for a 5V supplying.

The amplifier must be biased with a mid supply

(nominally +VCC/2), in order to maintain the DC

component of the signal at this value. Several op-

tions are possible to provide this bias supply (such

as a virtual ground using an operational amplifier),

or a two-resistance divider which is the cheapest

solution. A high resistance value is required to lim-

it the current consumption. On the other hand, the

current must be high enough to bias the non-in-

verting input of the amplifier. If we consider this

bias current (30µA max.) as the 1% of the current

through the resistance divider to keep a stable mid

supply, two resistances of 2.2kΩ can be used in

the case of a 12V power supply and two resistanc-

es of 820Ω can be used in the case of a 5V power

supply.

The input provides a high pass filter with a break

frequency below 10Hz which is necessary to re-

move the original 0 volt DC component of the input

signal, and to fix it at +VCC/2.

CHANNEL SEPARATION - CROSSTALK

The following figure show the crosstalk from an

amplifier to a second amplifier. This phenomenon,

accented in high frequencies, is unavoidable and

intrinsic of the circuit.

Nevertheless, the PCB layout has also an effect

on the crosstalk level. Capacitive coupling be-

tween signal wires, distance between critical sig-

nal nodes, power supply bypassing, are the most

significant points.
