Applications Information
The EL4453 is a complete two-quadrant fader/gain control
with 80MHz bandwidth. It has four sets of inputs; a
differential signal input VINA, a differential signal input VINB,
a differential fade-controlling input VFADE, and another
differential input Sum which can be used to add in a third
input at full gain. This is the general connection of the
EL4453 (Figure 1).
The gain of the feedback dividers are HA and HB, and
0 ≤ H ≤ 1. The transfer function of the part is:
VOUT = AO × [((VINA+) – HA × VOUT) × (1 + (VFADE+)
- (VFADE-)) / 2 + ((VINB+) – HB × VOUT) × (1 - (VFADE+)
+ (VFADE-)) / 2 + (Sum+) – (Sum-))],
with -1 ≤ (VFADE+)–(VFADE-) ≤ +1 numerically.
AO is the open-loop gain of the amplifier, and is about 600.
The large value of AO drives:
((VINA+) – HA × VOUT) × (1 + (VFADE+) – (VFADE-)) / 2
+ ((VINB+) – HB × VOUT) × (1- (VFADE+) + (VFADE-)) / 2
+ (Sum+) – (Sum-))→0.
Rearranging and substituting:
F × V IN A + F × V IN B + Sum
V OUT = ------------------------------------------------------------------------F × HA + F × HB
F = ( 1 + ( V FADE+ ) – ( V FADE- ) ) ⁄ 2
F = ( 1 – ( V FADE+ ) + ( V FADE- ) ) ⁄ 2
and Sum = ( Sum+ ) – ( Sum- )
Where
In the above equations, F represents the fade amount, with F
= 1 giving 100% gain on VINA but 0% for VINB; F = 0 giving
0% gain for VINA but 100% to VINB. F is 1 - F, the
complement of the fade gain. When F = 1,
V IN A + Sum
V OUT = --------------------------------HA
8
and the amplifier passes VINA and Sum with a gain of 1/HA.
Similarly, for F = 0,
V IN B + Sum
V OUT = --------------------------------HA
and the gains vary linearly between fade extremes.
The EL4453 is stable for a direct connection between VOUT
and VINA- or VINB-, yielding a gain of +1. The feedback
divider may be used for higher output gain, although with the
traditional loss of bandwidth. It is important to keep the
feedback divider’s impedances low so that stray capacitance
does not diminish the feedback loop’s phase margin. The
pole caused by the parallel impedance of the feedback
resistors and stray capacitance should be at least 150MHz;
typical strays of 3pF thus require a feedback impedance of
360Ω or less. Alternatively, a small capacitor across RF can
be used to create more of a frequency-compensated divider.
The value of the capacitor should scale with the parasitic
capacitance at the FB input. It is also practical to place small
capacitors across both the feedback resistors (whose values
maintain the desired gain) to swamp out parasitics. For
instance, two 10pF capacitors across equal divider resistors
for a gain of two will dominate parasitic effects and allow a
higher divider resistance. Either input channel can be set up
for inverting gain using traditional feedback resistor
connections.
At 100% gain, an input stage operates just like an op-amp’s
input, and the gain error is very low, around -0.2%.
Furthermore, nonlinearities are vastly improved since the
gain core sees only small error signals, not full inputs.
Unfortunately, distortions increase at lower fade gains for a
given input channel.
The Sum pins can be used to inject an additional input
signal, but it is not as linear as the VIN paths. The gain error
is also not as good as the main inputs, being about 1%. Both
sum pins should be grounded if they are not to be used.
EL4453
Fade-Control Characteristics
The quantity VFADE in the above equations is bounded as
-1 ≤ VFADE ≤ 1, even though the externally applied voltages
often exceed this range. Actually, the gain transfer function
around -1V and +1V is “soft”, that is, the gain does not clip
abruptly below the 0%-VFADE voltage or above the 100%–
VFADE level. An overdrive of 0.3V must be applied to VFADE
to obtain truly 0% or 100%. Because the 0% = or 100%VFADE levels cannot be precisely determined, they are
extrapolated from two points measured inside the slope of
the gain transfer curve. Generally, an applied VFADE range
of -1.5V to +1.5V will assure the full span of numerical
-1 ≤ VFADE ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ F ≤1.
The fade control has a small-signal bandwidth equal to the
VIN channel bandwidth, and overload recovery resolves in
about 20ns.
tantalum capacitors are very good, and no smaller bypasses
need be placed in parallel. Capacitors as small as 0.01µF
can be used if small load currents flow.
Singe-polarity supplies, such as +12V with +5V can be used,
where the ground pin is connected to +5V and V- to ground.
The inputs and outputs will have to have their levels shifted
above ground to accommodate the lack of negative supply.
The dissipation of the fader increases with power supply
voltage, and this must be compatible with the package
chosen. This is a close estimate for the dissipation of a
circuit:
PD = 2×VS, max×VS+(VS-VO)×VO/RPAR
where
IS, max is the maximum supply current
Input Connections
VS is the ± supply voltage (assumed equal)
The input transistors can be driven from resistive and
capacitive sources, but are capable of oscillation when
presented with an inductive input. It takes about 80nH of
series inductance to make the inputs actually oscillate,
equivalent to four inches of unshielded wiring or about six
inches of unterminated input transmission line. The
oscillation has a characteristic frequency of 500MHz. Often
placing one’s finger (via a metal probe) or an oscilloscope
probe on the input will kill the oscillation. Normal high
frequency construction obviates any such problems, where
the input source is reasonably close to the fader input. If this
is not possible, one can insert series resistors of around 51Ω
to de-Q the inputs.
VO is the output voltage
Signal Amplitudes
Signal input common-mode voltage must be between
(V-) + 2.5V and (V+) - 2.5V to ensure linearity. Additionally,
the differential voltage on any input stage must be limited to
±6V to prevent damage. The differential signal range is ±2V
in the EL4453. The input range is substantially constant with
temperature.
The Ground Pin
The ground pin draws only 6µA maximum DC current, and
may be biased anywhere between (V-) +2.5V and
(V+) - 3.5V. The ground pin is connected to the IC’s
substrate and frequency compensation components. It
serves as a shield within the IC and enhances input stage
CMRR and channel-to-channel isolation over frequency, and
if connected to a potential other than ground, it must be
bypassed.
Power Supplies
The EL4453 works well on any supplies from ±3V to ±15V.
The supplies may be of different voltages as long as the
requirements of the GND pin are observed (see the Ground
Pin section for a discussion). The supplies should be
bypassed close to the device with short leads. 4.7µF

RPAR is the parallel of all resistors loading the output
For instance, the EL4453 draws a maximum of 21 mA. With
light loading, RPAR→∞ and the dissipation with ±5V supplies
is 210mW. The maximum supply voltage that the device can
run on for a given PD and the other parameters is:
VS, max = (PD+VO2/RPAR)/(2IS+VO/RPAR)
The maximum dissipation a package can offer is:
PD, max = (TD, max - TA, max)/θJA
where
TD, max is the maximum die temperature, 150°C for
reliability, less to retain optimum electrical performance
TA, max is the ambient temperature, 70°C for commercial
and 85°C for industrial range
θJA is the thermal resistance of the mounted package,
obtained from datasheet dissipation curves
The more difficult case is the SO-14 package. With a
maximum die temperature of 150°C and a maximum
ambient temperature of 70°C, the 80°C temperature rise and
package thermal resistance of 110°/W gives a dissipation of
636mW at 85°C.
This allows ±15V operation over the commercial
temperature range, but higher ambient temperature or output
loading may require lower supply voltages.
Output Loading
The output stage of the EL4453 is very powerful. It typically
can source 80mA and sink 120mA. Of course, this is too
much current to sustain and the part will eventually be
destroyed by excessive dissipation or by metal traces on the
die opening. The metal traces are completely reliable while
delivering the 30mA continuous output given in the Absolute
EL4453
Maximum Ratings table in this data sheet, or higher purely
transient currents.
Gain changes only 0.2% from no load to 100Ω load. Heavy
resistive loading will degrade frequency response and video
distortion for loads < 100Ω.
Capacitive loads will cause peaking in the frequency
response. If capacitive loads must be driven, a small-valued
series resistor can be used to isolate it. 12Ω to 51Ω should
suffice. A 22Ω series resistor will limit peaking to 2.5dB with
even a 220pF load.
