Unity gain level programmable low power compandor
DESCRIPTION
SA577
PIN CONFIGURATION
The SA577 is a unity gain level programmable compandor designed
for low power applications. The SA577 is internally configured as an
expandor and a compressor to minimize external component count.

NOTE:
1. Operation down to VCC = 1.8V is possible, see application note AN1762.
2. Reference voltage, VREF, is typically at 1/2 VCC.
3. Unity gain level can be adjusted CONTINUOUSLY between –40dBV = 10mVRMS and 0dBV = 1.0VRMS. For details see application note
AN1762.
