Product Details
The LT6411 is a dual amplifier with individually selectable gains of +1, +2 and –1. The amplifiers have excellent distortion performance for driving ADCs as well as excellent bandwidth and slew rate for video, data transmission and other high speed applications. Single-ended to differential conversion with a system gain of 2 is particularly straightforward by configuring one amplifier with a gain of +1 and the other amplifier with a gain of –1. The LT6411 can be used on split supplies as large as ±6V and on a single supply as low as 4.5V.
Each amplifier draws only 8mA of quiescent current when enabled. When disabled, the output pins become high impedance and each amplifier draws less than 350µA.
The LT6411 is manufactured on our proprietary, low voltage, complimentary, bipolar process and is available in the ultra-compact, 3mm × 3mm, 16pin QFN package.
Applications
- Differential ADC Driver
- Single-Ended to Differential Conversion

Tools & Simulations
LTspice
LTspice® is a powerful, fast and free simulation software, schematic capture and waveform viewer with enhancements and models for improving the simulation of analog circuits.

Models for the following parts are available in LTspice:
Sys-Parameters
Sys-Parameter models contain behavioral parameters, such as P1dB, IP3, gain, noise figure and return loss, which describe nonlinear and linear characteristics of a device.
Design Tools
ADIsimRF is an easy-to-use RF signal chain calculator. Cascaded gain, noise, distortion and power consumption can be calculated, plotted and exported for signal chains with up to 50 stages. ADIsimRF also includes an extensive data base of device models for ADI’s RF and mixed signal components.
