The THS7001 (single) and THS7002 (dual) are high-speed programmable-gain amplifiers, ideal for applications where load impedance can often vary. Each channel on this device consists of a separate low-noise input preamp and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The preamp is a voltage-feedback amplifier offering a low 1.7-nV/Hz voltage noise with a 100-MHz (-3 dB) bandwidth. The output pin of the preamp is accessible so that filters can be easily added to the amplifier.

The 3-bit digitally-controlled PGA provides a -22-dB to 20-dB attenuation/gain range with a 6-dB step resolution. In addition, the PGA provides both high and low output clamp protection to prevent the output signal from swinging outside the common-mode input range of an analog-to-digital converter.
