Preliminary specification
QIC read-write amplifier
TZA1000
The AGC will maintain outputs OUTA and OUTB at
1.1 V (p-p). Additional level adjustment points are
provided by the 34 or 40 dB preamplifier gain switch (see
Table 11) and the −10 or −4 dB bias output attenuation
switch (see Table 9).
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The preamplifier
The gain and dynamic range of the symmetrical low noise
preamplifier can be varied to accommodate a wide
variation in input signal amplitude (see Table 11).
The 40 dB and 34 dB gain settings are provided for normal
use. The 40 dB setting offers the lowest noise figure. The
4 dB gain setting is intended for IC testing only.
High-pass filter
The HPF (High-Pass Filter) is used to differentiate
yoke-type head signals. It is followed by an additional gain
stage (21 dB). The HPF cut-off frequency is coupled to the
cut-off frequency of the LPF (Low-Pass Filter), and is
selectable in 4 steps: 1, 2, 4 and 10 MHz (see Table 2).
The HPF can be bypassed for SIG heads (see Table 8).
The servo preamplifier
This low noise preamplifier can be used for reading
signals, such as QIC 3095 (Travan 4) servo signals, via
the recording head write coil. Servo mode is selected
either by resetting bits AI0 and AI1 in the control register
(see Table 9) or by means of the HOLD pin (the HSM
control bit must be set when HOLD goes LOW; see
Table 7). When servo mode is selected, the maximum
total gain is set automatically regardless of, and without
overwriting, gain settings. Fast switch-over from read
mode to servo mode can thus be achieved without having
to alter register values.
Low-pass filter
The second order low-pass filter is used to attenuate high
frequency noise above the signal bandwidth, mainly to
provide anti-aliasing filtering for the A/D converter in the
digital equalizer. The cut-off frequency of the LPF is
selectable in 4 steps: 1, 2, 4 and 10 MHz (see Table 2).
Sense current circuit
The sense current circuit is a programmable current
source, operating from the 12 V supply (VDD3). It can be
programmed to supply a current between 0 and 15 mA,
with 7-bit resolution. The current range can be doubled,
then ranging from 0 to 30 mA, by setting the SDB bit in the
control register (see Table 15). The sense current circuit
can be disabled by resetting the ENS bit (see Table 4).
Variable gain stage and AGC
The input to the variable gain stage can be switched to the
preamplifier output, to the output of the bias/FB (Feed
Back) circuit, or to the servo preamplifier output. When
using magnetic feedback, the bias/FB circuit output should
be selected (see Table 9).
The AGC range is 15 dB. The gain is programmable in
1 dB steps (see Table 12). If the output signal is too small,
a digital control circuit will increase the gain from minimum
to maximum in approximately 10 ms. If the output signal is
too large, the gain will be reduced from maximum to
minimum in approximately 0.2 ms. These values assume
a 24 MHz clock frequency. The upper limit of the gain
control range can be extended by 6 dB by setting the
G6DB bit in the control register via the serial interface (see
Table 13).
This is the only circuit on the IC that uses the 12 V supply.
The output must be decoupled with a low impedance
capacitor (10 µF recommended) to reduce noise coupling
into the head.
For the current source circuit to operate correctly, the
voltage difference between VDD3 (pin 9) and ISENSE
(pin 8) must be at least 1.6 V.
The AGC is frozen while the HOLD input is LOW, the
TZA1000 is writing, or the IC is in servo mode.
The AGC can be operated internally, running on the CLK
clock signal on pin 15 (HOLD HIGH and GFXD LOW; see
Table 12), or externally by means of a software algorithm
(GFXD HIGH). When operated externally, either the DN bit
in the status read register (see Table 17) or the level
measurement in the digital equalizer IC (SZA1000) can be
used as input to the algorithm.

Bias and magnetic feedback circuit
Write circuit
This circuit can be used to generate AC and DC bias
currents (for a yoke-type MR head, for instance).
The DC bias output voltage is programmable
between 0 and 1.4 V, with 5-bit resolution (see Table 3).
The DC current generated is this voltage divided by the
total bias resistance (head coil + total series resistance).
The write circuit is a differential current source that can
generate a near rail-to-rail output voltage to get the
shortest current transition time. Writing is enabled when
WGATE is LOW. The polarity of the current depends on
the WD input pin. The WDM bit in the control register
determines the write signal mode: WD (Non-Return to
Zero) or WDI (Return to Zero; see Table 14). When WDI
mode is selected, the polarity of the write current is
reversed at every falling edge of the WD input. When WD
mode is selected, the polarity of the write current is
reversed when the polarity of WD changes. The write
current is programmable between 0 and 125 mA, with
7-bit resolution (see Table 14).
The AC signal input to the circuit can be switched to the
preamplifier output (see Table 10). In this way, magnetic
feedback inside the head can be achieved. This limits
head distortion, and prevents head saturation from large
tape signals, like QIC 80 recordings.
The open loop gain of the feedback loop depends on head
sensitivity, the selected sense current (see Table 15), and
the selected preamplifier gain (see Table 11). The values
of the external resistors connected in series with the bias
conductor can be used to set the gain. For loop stability at
high frequencies, the bandwidth of the magnetic feedback
amplifier is limited to 5 MHz.
The IC is specified for a write current of up to 100 mA.
Overshoot caused by an inductive load can be minimized
by means of a single external resister local to the IC.
Write unsafe detector
The write unsafe detector will detect an open write coil, or
one shorted to ground. The circuit is enabled only while the
TZA1000 is writing. A resistance to GND or VDD of less
than 10 Ω, or a series resistance greater that about 300 Ω,
will be detected (these values are write-current
dependant). If an error occurs, the WUS status bit is set.
This bit can be read via the serial interface. The WUS bit
will remain set until the status byte is read.
In closed loop mode, the effective cut-off frequency for the
playback signals will increase with the feedback factor. For
this reason the read signal can be taken from the output of
the bias circuit.
To prevent loop instability at low frequencies, the
preamplifier input capacitors should be chosen such that
the cut-off frequency at that point is well above, or well
below, the internal cut-off frequency of the AC coupling
between the preamplifier and the bias circuit (input
impedance of the preamplifier is typically 2 kΩ).
Power fail detector
The power fail detector will detect a low voltage on the 5 V
(VDD1) or 12 V (VDD3) supply lines. The thresholds are
3.75 V for VDD1 and 9 V for VDD3. A power failure is
detected if the voltage is below the threshold for 1 µs or
longer. If a 5 V power failure occurs, the status bit PF5 is
set. If a 12 V power failure occurs, the status bit PF12 is
set. These bits can be read via the serial interface, and will
remain HIGH until the status byte is read.
The maximum (peak AC) current that the bias circuit can
deliver can be adjusted to achieve an optimum balance
between required current range and power consumption
(see Table 3). The AC circuit is switched off when the
TZA1000 is writing, and the maximum current is switched
to 10 mA. This limits power dissipation during writing.
Test generator
When a 5 V power failure occurs, the RESET output goes
LOW and the write circuit is disabled (in addition to PF5
being set). The RESET output has an internal 18 kΩ pull
down resistor to guarantee a LOW level at the output even
when a power failure occurs. During normal operation, the
RESET pin should not be held LOW by an external circuit,
since this will switch the IC into test mode.
This circuit generates a test signal with a frequency 1⁄16
that of the signal at the CLK input (pin 15). By switching the
AC input of the bias circuit to the internal test generator
(see Table 10), the read channel can be tested.
The differential output value is typically 100 mV (p-p).
This facility can also be used to adjust the DC bias voltage
while monitoring the signal at the read element in the head.
The optimum DC bias level setting is just before the output
from the read head reaches its peak.

DACs
Clock handling
There are 3 internal DACs:
The TZA1000 has 2 clock inputs:
1. The Sense DAC: current DAC; 7-bit resolution
CLK: the general clock input, pin 15
2. The Write DAC: current DAC; 7-bit resolution
SCLK: the serial interface clock input, pin 10.
3. The Bias DAC: voltage DAC; 5-bit resolution.
CLK is used for status register read and write cycle timing
and for operating the internal AGC. When the AGC is not
being used and serial communications are not active, CLK
may be switched off. This can help reduce crosstalk on the
printed circuit board.
The Sense and Write DAC current settings are a function
of the reference current Iref (at the Iref pin). Iref is multiplied
by a 7-bit factor: S0 to S6 for the sense DAC, W0 to W6 for
the write DAC (see Tables 14 and 15). If the resistance
between Iref and GND is increased (or decreased), the
DAC output currents will be decreased (or increased) by
the same factor. In this way, the DAC output current
ranges can be adjusted.
When accessing the status register, the CLK frequency
must be at least 16 × SCLK frequency. It is recommended
that the 24 MHz clock supplied by the SZA1000 be used
directly.
The current values specified, and the equations used to
calculate Sense and Write currents (see Tables 14
and 15), are for a 430 Ω resistance between Iref and GND.
This resistance can be varied between 250 Ω and 1 kΩ,
giving a ±2 × DAC modification range. For reasons of
noise and stability, the voltage at the Iref pin should not be
used in any other part of the circuit.
1998 Mar 17
Serial interface
The 3 wire serial interface recognizes 8-bit addresses and
8-bit data. To read data from the status register, hex
address FF must be transmitted. The IC will then respond
with the contents of the 8-bit status register.

SOLDERING
Wave soldering
Introduction
Wave soldering techniques can be used for all SO
packages if the following conditions are observed:
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
situations reflow soldering is often used.
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave) soldering
technique should be used.
• The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must be
parallel to the solder flow.
• The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves at
the downstream end.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our “IC Package Databook” (order code 9398 652 90011).
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all SO
packages.
Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and
maximum duration of package immersion in solder is
10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within
6 seconds. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
Several techniques exist for reflowing; for example,
thermal conduction by heated belt. Dwell times vary
between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating
method. Typical reflow temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C.
Repairing soldered joints
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonallyopposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron
(less than 24 V) applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact
time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. When
using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in
one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
Preheating is necessary to dry the paste and evaporate
the binding agent. Preheating duration: 45 minutes at
45 °C.
