description
The THS6002 contains two high-current, high-speed drivers and two high-speed receivers. These drivers and
receivers can be configured differentially for driving and receiving signals over low-impedance lines. The
THS6002 is ideally suited for asymmetrical digital subscriber line (ADSL) applications where it supports the
high-peak voltage and current requirements of that application. Both the drivers and the receivers are current
feedback amplifiers designed for the high slew rates necessary to support low total harmonic distortion (THD)
in ADSL applications. Separate power supply connections for each driver are provided to minimize crosstalk.
