Brief Description
The FX019 Digitally Adjustable Amplifier Array is
available to replace trimmer potentiometers and
volume controls in Cellular, PMR, Telephony and
Communications applications where d.c., voice or
data signals need adjustment.
The FX019 is a single-chip LSI consisting of four
digitally controlled amplifier stages, each with 15
distinct gain/attenuation steps. Control of each
individual amplifier is by an 8-bit serial data stream.
Three of the amplifier stages offer a +/-3dB range in
steps of 0.43dB, whilst the remaining amplifier offers a
+/-14dB range in steps of 2dB, and is suggested for
volume control applications. Each amplifier includes a
16th 'Off' state which when applied, mutes the output
audio from that channel. This array uses a Chip
Select input to select one of two FX019s in a system.
This product replaces the need for manual trimming
of audible signals by using the host microprocessor to
digitally control the set-up of all audio levels during
development, production/calibration and operation.
Applications include:
(i) Control, adjustment and set-up of communications
equipment by an Intelligent ATE without manual
intervention – eg. Deviation, Microphone and L/S
Levels, Rx Audio Level etc.
(ii) Automatic Dynamic Compensation of drift caused
by variations in temperature, linearity, etc.
(iii)Fully automated servicing and re-alignment.
The FX019 is a low-power, single 5-volt CMOS
device available in plastic DIL and Small Outline
(S.O.I.C.) SMD package versions.

1
Serial Clock : This external clock pulse input is used to “clock in” the Control Data. See Figure 4,
Serial Control Data Load Timing. This input has an internal 1MΩ pullup resistor.
2
Load/Latch : Governs the loading and execution of the control data. During serial data loading
this input should be kept at a logical '0' to ensure that data rippling past the latches has no effect.
When all 8 bits have been loaded, this input should be strobed '0' - '1' - '0' to latch the new data in.
Data is executed on the falling edge of the strobe. If the Load/Latch input is used this pin should
be left open circuit. This input has an internal 1MΩ pullup resistor.
3
Load/Latch : The inverted Load/Latch input. This function governs the loading and execution of
the control data. During serial data loading this input should be kept at a logical '1' to ensure that
data rippling past the latches has no effect. When all 8 bits have been loaded, this input should be
strobed '1' - '0' - '1' to latch the new data in. Data is executed on the rising edge of the strobe.
If the Load/Latch input is used this pin should be left open circuit. This input has an internal 1MΩ
pulldown resistor.

Ch3 Input :
These individual amplifier inputs are self-biasing, a.c. input
analogue signals must be capacitively coupled to these pins, as
shown in Figure 2.
Note that amplifiers Ch1 to Ch4 are 'inverting amplifiers.'

Ch4 Input :
8
VSS : Negative supply rail (GND).
9
VBIAS : The output of the on-chip bias circuitry, held at VDD/2. This pin should be decoupled to VSS
as shown in Figure 2.

Ch1 Output :
The individual "Gain Controlled" amplifier outputs.
Ch1 to Ch3 range from -3dB to +3dB in 0.43dB steps, Ch4 could be
utilized as a volume control, ranging from -14dB to +14dB in 2.0dB
steps.
In the “OFF” mode there is no output from the selected amplifier.
14
Chip Select : A logic input to select one of two FX019 microcircuits in a system, see Table 1.
This input has an internal 1MΩ pulldown resistor.
15
Control Data Input : Operation of the 4 amplifier channels (Ch1 – Ch4) is controlled by the 8 bits
of data entered serially at this pin. The data is entered (bit 7 to bit 0) on the rising edge of the
external Serial Clock. The data format is described in Tables 1, 2 and Figure 4. This input has an
internal 1MΩ pullup resistor.
16
VDD : Positive supply rail. A single +5-volt power supply is required.

Application Recommendations
To avoid excess noise and instability in the final installation it is recommended that the following points be noted.
(a) A noisy or badly regulated power supply can
cause instability and/or variance of selected gains.
(b) Care should be taken on the design and layout of
the printed circuit board.
(c) All external components (Figure 2) should be
kept close to the FX019 package.
(d) Inputs and outputs should be screened wherever
possible.
(e) Tracks should be kept short.
60
(f) Analogue tracks should not run parallel to digital
tracks.
(g) A "Ground Plane" connected to VSS will assist in
eliminating external pick-up on the channel input and
output pins.
(h) Do not run high-level output tracks close to lowlevel input tracks.
(i) Input signal amplitudes should be applied with due
regard to Figure 3.

Control Data and Timing
The gain of each amplifier block (Channel 1 to
Channel 4) in the FX019 is set by a separate 8-bit
data word ( bit 7 to bit 0 ). This 8-bit word, consisting
of 4 Address bits (bit 7 to bit 4) and 4 Gain Control
bits (bit 3 to bit 0), is loaded to the Control Data Input
in serial format using the external data clock.
Data is loaded to the FX019 on the rising edge of the
Serial Clock. Loaded data is executed on the falling
(rising) edge of the Load/Latch (Load/Latch) pulse.
Table 1 shows the format of each 4-bit Address word,
Table 2 shows the format of each Gain Control word
with Figure 4 describing the data loading operation and
timing.

Data Loading
The 8-bit data word is loaded bit 7 first and bit 0 last.
Bit 7 must be a logic “1” to address the chip.
If bit 7 in the word is a logic “0” that 8-bit word will not be
executed. The Chip Select input permits the use of two
devices in a system; To facilitate this, Bit 6 can be either
a logic “0” or “1.” Figure 4 (below) shows the timing
information required to load and operate this device.

CML Product Data
In the process of creating a more global image, the three standard product semiconductor
companies of CML Microsystems Plc (Consumer Microcircuits Limited (UK), MX-COM, Inc
(USA) and CML Microcircuits (Singapore) Pte Ltd) have undergone name changes and, whilst
maintaining their separate new names (CML Microcircuits (UK) Ltd, CML Microcircuits (USA)
Inc and CML Microcircuits (Singapore) Pte Ltd), now operate under the single title CML Microcircuits.
These companies are all 100% owned operating companies of the CML Microsystems Plc
Group and these changes are purely changes of name and do not change any underlying legal
entities and hence will have no effect on any agreements or contacts currently in force.
CML Microcircuits Product Prefix Codes
Until the latter part of 1996, the differentiator between products manufactured and sold from
MXCOM, Inc. and Consumer Microcircuits Limited were denoted by the prefixes MX and FX
respectively. These products use the same silicon etc. and today still carry the same prefixes.
In the latter part of 1996, both companies adopted the common prefix: CMX.
