The HA-2557/883 is also well suited for mixer circuits as well as AGC applications for sonar, radar, and medical imaging equipment. The current output of the HA-2557/883 allows it to achieve higher bandwidths than voltage output multipliers. Full scale output current is trimmed to 1.6mA. An internal 2500Ω feedback resistor is also provided to accurately convert the current, if desired, to a full scale output voltage of ±4V. The HA-2557/883 is not limited to multiplication applications only; frequency doubling, power detection, as well as many other configurations are also possible. • Video Mixers Ordering Information • Sonar AGC Processors • Radar Signal Conditioning PART NUMBER • Voltage Controlled Amplifier HA1-2557/883 • Vector Generator TEMPERATURE RANGE -55oC to +125oC PACKAGE 16 Lead CerDIP Schematic Pinout V+ HA-2557/883 (CERDIP) TOP VIEW GND REF VREF 2 15 VXIOB VYIOB 3 14 NC VYIOA 4 VBIAS IOUT 13 VX+ X VY+ VBIAS 16 VXIO A 1 12 VX- 5 Y VX+ VX - X VY - 6 11 V+ V- 7 10 RZ IOUT 8 9 YY - VY + RZ REF + - NC VXIO A VXIOB GND VYIO A CAUTION: These devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper IC Handling Procedures. http://www.intersil.com or 407-727-9207 | Copyright © Intersil Corporation 1999 8-12 VYIOB V- 511064-883 File Number 3638 Spec Number Specifications HA2557/883 Absolute Maximum Ratings Thermal Information Voltage Between V+ and V- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35V Differential Input Voltage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6V Output Current . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ±3mA ESD Rating. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . < 2000V Lead Temperature (Soldering 10s) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +300oC Storage Temperature Range . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -65oC ≤ TA ≤ +150oC Max Junction Temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +175oC Thermal Resistance θJA θJC CerDIP Package . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 82oC/W 27oC/W Maximum Package Power Dissipation at +75oC CerDIP Package . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.22W Package Power Dissipation Derating Factor above +75oC CerDIP Package . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12mW/oC CAUTION: Stresses above those listed in “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.

No guarantee is implied. Applications Information Operation at Reduced Supply Voltages The HA-2557 will operate over a range of supply voltages, ±5V to ±15V. Use of supply voltages below ±12V will reduce input and output voltage ranges. See “Typical Performance Curves” for more information. products where one input was dedicated to a slow moving control function as is required for Automatic Gain Control. The HA-2557 is versatile enough for both. Offset Adjustment ACOS(ωΑτ) The channel offset voltage may be nulled by using a 20K potentiometer between the VYIO or VXIO adjust pin A and B and connecting the wiper to V-. Reducing the channel offset voltage will reduce AC feedthrough and improve the multiplication error. - X VX1/10kVΩ X CCOS(ωCτ) VY+ IOUT RZ Y + CARRIER The HA-2557 creates an output current that is the product of the X and Y input voltages divided by a constant scale factor of 10kVΩ. The resulting output has the correct polarity in each of the four quadrants defined by the combinations of positive and negative X and Y inputs. This results in the following equation, where X and Y are high impedance differential inputs: OUT + AUDIO Theory of Operation I VX+ - VYI AC OUT = --------------- ( Cos ( ω C – ω A ) τ + Cos ( ω C + ω A ) τ ) 20kVΩ FIGURE 2. AM SIGNAL GENERATION XxY = ------------ VX + 10kVΩ AM SIGNAL To accomplish this the differential input voltages are first converted into differential currents by the X and Y input transconductance stages. The currents are then scaled by a constant reference and combined in the multiplier core. The multiplier core is a basic Gilbert Cell that produces a differential output current proportional to the product of X and Y input signal currents. This current is converted into the output for the HA-2557. The purpose of the reference circuit is to provide a stable current, used in setting the scale factor. This is achieved with a bandgap reference circuit to produce a temperature stable voltage of 1.2V which is forced across a NiCr resistor. Slight adjustments to scale factor may be possible by overriding the internal reference with the VREF pin. The scale factor is used to maintain the output of the multiplier within the normal operating range of ±1.6mA when full scale inputs are applied. + - VX - X 1/10KVΩ X VY + CARRIER Y + - VY LIKE THE FREQUENCY DOUBLER YOU GET AUDIO CENTERED AT DC AND 2FC .

FREQUENCY DOUBLER - + Although the X and Y inputs have similar AC characteristics, they are not the same. The designer should consider input parameters such as small signal bandwidth and ac feedthrough to get the most performance from the HA-2557. The Y channel is the faster of the two inputs with a small signal bandwidth of typically 130MHz verses 75MHz for the X channel. Therefore in AM Signal Generation, the best performance will be obtained with the Carrier applied to the Y channel and the modulation signal (lower frequency) applied to the X channel. VOUT HA-2842 10kΩ 0.1µF 1N914 10kΩ 5kΩ 0.01µF - +15V + HA-5127 5.6V 20kΩ Operation Over a Wide Supply Range 0.1µF The HA-2557 is able to operate over a wide supply voltage range ±5V to ±17.5V. The ±5V range is particularly useful in video applications. At ±5V the input voltage range is reduced to ±1.4V limiting the fullscale output current. Another current output option is the HA-2556 voltage output multiplier configured for current output with an output sensing resistor (Refer to the HA-2556 datasheet). FIGURE 6. AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL This multiplier has the advantage over other AGC circuits, in that the signal bandwidth is not affected by the control signal gain adjustment. Voltage Output Conversion Automatic Gain Control Figure 6 shows the HA-2557 configured in an Automatic Gain Control or AGC application. The HA-2842 serves as an output I to V converter using RZ which is trimmed to provide an accurate 4V Fullscale conversion. Refer to Voltage Output Conversion for more details about this function. The HA-5127 low noise amplifier provides the gain control signal to the X input. This control signal sets the peak output voltage of the multiplier to match the preset reference level. The feedback network around the HA-5127 provides a response time adjustment. High frequency changes in the peak are rejected as noise or the desired signal to be transmitted. These signals do not indicate a change in the average peak value and therefore no gain adjustment is needed. Lower frequency changes in the peak value are given a gain of -1 for feedback to the control input. At DC the circuit is an integrator automatically compensating for offset and other constant error terms. The HA-2842 is an excellent choice to perform the output current to voltage conversion as shown in Figure 7. The combination of 400V/µs slew rate and 80MHz Gain Bandwidth product will maintain signal dynamics while providing a full scale ±4V output. The HA-2842 also provides a hefty output drive capability of 100mA. This voltage feedback amplifier takes advantage of the internal RZ resistor, trimmed to provide an accurate 4V fullscale conversion. The parasitic capacitance at the negative input of the HA-2842 must be compensated with a 3pF capacitor from pin 2 to pin 6. This compensation will also insure that the amp will see a noise gain of 2 at its crossover frequency, the minimum required for stability with this device. The full power bandwidth curve and large signal pulse response for this circuit are shown in Typical Performance Curves. The fast slew rate of the HA-2842 results in a minimal reduction of bandwidth for large signals.

No guarantee is implied. Another choice for an I to V converter that takes better advantage of the wide bandwidth of the HA-2557, is to use the HA5023 Dual 100MHz current feedback amp. The optimum bandwidth of a current feedback amp is obtained with a fixed feedback resistor. Therefore scaling the I to V conversion to a convenient value requires two stages. Fortunately the HA5023 provides two wideband amplifiers in a single 8 pin Mini-DIP or SOIC package, while their current feedback architecture provides signal gain with minimal reduction in bandwidth.

This voltage is then gained up by the second stage to provide a ±4V Fullscale Voltage output with a bandwidth in excess of 90MHz. The 10pF capacitor and the additional 220Ω resistor improve gain flatness and reduce gain peaking. The HA5023 also provides excellent Full Power Bandwidth (-3dB at 80MHz for a 3.5VP-P signal).
