XCVR2450 Gain Calculations: AD8132 Low Cost High Speed Differential Amplifier

Hi All,

I’m looking at the parts of the XCVR2450 trying to do theoretical gain /
noise calcs.
My first question is… has anyone else done these? Do my numbers seem
reasonable?

Secondly… I don’t know what gain the AD8132 has… it seems to offer G
=1,2,5,10 according to page 15…
Should I be assuming the Gain is maxed out to 10?

Thanks,

-Michael
