Abstract
An active balun using dual stage feedback and distributed feedforward distortion cancellation for use as a driver amplifier for wideband RF sampling ADCs is presented. With a gain of 16.5dB & HD2 of 60dBc while delivering 3dBm (100Ω), the DC coupled balun achieves a linear-bandwidth of >12GHz holding OIP3>27dBm & NF
