The AD603 uses a proprietary circuit topology鈥攖he X-AMP鈩?
The X-AMP comprises a variable attenuator of 0 dB to
鈥?2.14 dB followed by a fixed-gain amplifier. Because of the
attenuator, the amplifier never has to cope with large inputs and
can use negative feedback to define its (fixed) gain and dynamic
performance. The attenuator has an input resistance of 100
鈩?
laser trimmed to
鹵
3%, and comprises a seven-stage R-2R ladder
network, resulting in an attenuation between tap points of
6.021 dB. A proprietary interpolation technique provides a
continuous gain-control function which is linear in dB.
The AD603A is specified for operation from 鈥?0擄C to +85擄C
and is available in both 8-lead SOIC (R) and 8-lead ceramic
DIP (Q). The AD603S is specified for operation from 鈥?5擄C to
+125擄C and is available in an 8-lead ceramic DIP (Q). The
AD603 is also available under DESC SMD 5962-94572.
The AD603 is a low noise, voltage-controlled amplifier for use
in RF and IF AGC systems. It provides accurate, pin selectable
gains of 鈥?1 dB to +31 dB with a bandwidth of 90 MHz or
+9 dB to +51 dB with a bandwidth of 9 MHz. Any intermediate
gain range may be arranged using one external resistor. The
input referred noise spectral density is only 1.3 nV/鈭欻z and power
consumption is 125 mW at the recommended
鹵5
V supplies.
The decibel gain is 鈥渓inear in dB,鈥?accurately calibrated, and
stable over temperature and supply. The gain is controlled at a
high impedance (50 M鈩?, low bias (200 nA) differential input;
the scaling is 25 mV/dB, requiring a gain-control voltage of only
