GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD630 is a high precision balanced modulator/demodulator
that combines a flexible commutating architecture with the
accuracy and temperature stability afforded by laser wafer trimmed
thin film resistors. A network of on-board applications resistors
provides precision closed-loop gains of ±1 and ±2 with 0.05%
accuracy (AD630B). These resistors may also be used to accurately
configure multiplexer gains of 1, 2, 3, or 4. External feedback
enables high gain or complex switched feedback topologies.
The AD630 can be thought of as a precision op amp with two
independent differential input stages and a precision comparator that is used to select the active front end. The rapid response
time of this comparator coupled with the high slew rate and fast
settling of the linear amplifiers minimize switching distortion.
The AD630 is used in precision signal processing and instrumentation applications that require wide dynamic range. When
used as a synchronous demodulator in a lock-in amplifier
configuration, the AD630 can recover a small signal from
100 dB of interfering noise (see the Lock-In Amplifier
Applications section). Although optimized for operation up to
1 kHz, the circuit is useful at frequencies up to several hundred
kilohertz.

Other features of the AD630 include pin programmable frequency compensation; optional input bias current compensation
resistors, common-mode and differential-offset voltage adjustment, and a channel status output that indicates which of the
two differential inputs is active.

The application flexibility of the AD630 makes it the best
choice for applications that require precisely fixed gain,
switched gain, multiplexing, integrating-switching
functions, and high speed precision amplification.
The 100 dB dynamic range of the AD630 exceeds that of
any hybrid or IC balanced modulator/demodulator and is
comparable to that of costly signal processing instruments.
The op amp format of the AD630 ensures easy implementation of high gain or complex switched feedback
functions. The application resistors facilitate the implementation of most common applications with no additional parts.
The AD630 can be used as a 2-channel multiplexer with gains
of 1, 2, 3, or 4. The channel separation of 100 dB at 10 kHz
approaches the limit achievable with an empty IC package.
Laser trimming of the comparator and amplifying channel
offsets eliminate the need for external nulling in most cases.

THEORY OF OPERATION
TWO WAYS TO LOOK AT THE AD630
The functional block diagram of the AD630 (see Figure 1)
shows the pin connections of the internal functions. An
alternative architectural diagram is shown in Figure 20. In this
diagram, the individual A and B channel preamps, the switch,
and the integrator output amplifier are combined in a single op
amp. This amplifier has two differential input channels, only
one of which is active at a time.

HOW THE AD630 WORKS
The basic mode of operation of the AD630 may be easier to
recognize as two fixed gain stages, which can be inserted into
the signal path under the control of a sensitive voltage comparator. When the circuit is switched between inverting and
noninverting gain, it provides the basic modulation/demodulation
function. The AD630 is unique in that it includes laser wafer
trimmed thin-film feedback resistors on the monolithic chip.
The configuration shown in Figure 21 yields a gain of ±2 and
can be easily changed to ±1 by shifting RB from its ground
connection to the output.
The 5 kΩ and the two 10 kΩ resistors on the AD630 chip can be
used to make a gain of 2 as shown in Figure 22 and Figure 23.
By paralleling the 10 kΩ resistors to make RF equal to 5 kΩ and
omitting RB, the circuit can be programmed for a gain of ±1 (as
shown in Figure 28). These and other configurations using the
on-chip resistors present the inverting inputs with a 2.5 kΩ
source impedance. The more complete AD630 diagrams show
2.5 kΩ resistors available at the noninverting inputs which can
be conveniently used to minimize errors resulting from input
bias currents.
The comparator selects one of the two input stages to complete
an operational feedback connection around the AD630. The
deselected input is off and has a negligible effect on operation.

When Channel B is selected, the RA and RF resistors are
connected for inverting feedback as shown in the inverting gain
configuration diagram in Figure 22. The amplifier has sufficient
loop gain to minimize the loading effect of RB at the virtual
ground produced by the feedback connection. When the sign of
the comparator input is reversed, Input B is deselected and Input A
is selected. The new equivalent circuit is the noninverting gain
configuration shown in Figure 23. In this case, RA appears
across the op amp input terminals, but because the amplifier
drives this difference voltage to zero, the closed-loop gain is
unaffected.

AD630
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Another feature of the input structure is that it enhances the
slew rate of the circuit. The current output of the active stage
follows a quasihyperbolic sine relationship to the differential
input voltage. This means that the greater the input voltage, the
harder this stage drives the output integrator, and the faster the
output signal moves. This feature helps ensure rapid, symmetric
settling when switching between inverting and noninverting
closed loop configurations.
The simplified schematic of the AD630 is shown in Figure 24. It
has been subdivided into three major sections, the comparator,
the two input stages, and the output integrator. The comparator
consists of a front end made up of Q52 and Q53, a flip-flop load
formed by Q3 and Q4, and two current steering switching cells
Q28, Q29 and Q30, Q31. This structure is designed so that a
differential input voltage greater than 1.5 mV in magnitude
applied to the comparator inputs completely selects one of the
switching cells. The sign of this input voltage determines which
of the two switching cells is selected.
The output section of the AD630 includes a current mirror load
(Q24 and Q25), an integrator voltage gain stage (Q32), and a
complementary output buffer (Q44 and Q74). The outputs of
both transconductance stages are connected in parallel to the
current mirror. Because the deselected input stage produces no
output current and presents a high impedance at its outputs,
there is no conflict. The current mirror translates the differential output current from the active input transconductance
amplifier into single-ended form for the output integrator. The
complementary output driver then buffers the integrator output
to produce a low impedance output.
The collectors of each switching cell connect to an input
transconductance stage. The selected cell conveys bias currents
i22 and i23 to the input stage it controls, causing it to become
active. The deselected cell blocks the bias to its input stage,
which, as a consequence, remains off.
The structure of the transconductance stages is such that it
presents a high impedance at its input terminals and draws
no bias current when deselected. The deselected input does
not interfere with the operation of the selected input ensuring
maximum channel separation.

OTHER GAIN CONFIGURATIONS
SWITCHED INPUT IMPEDANCE
Many applications require switched gains other than the ±1 and
±2, which the self-contained applications resistors provide. The
AD630 can be readily programmed with three external resistors
over a wide range of positive and negative gain by selecting and
RB and RF to give the noninverting gain 1 + RF/RB and subsequent RA to give the desired inverting gain. Note that when the
inverting magnitude equals the noninverting magnitude, the
value of RA is found to be RBRF/(RB + RF). That is, RA equals
the parallel combination of RB and RF to match positive and
negative gain.
The noninverting mode of operation is a high input impedance
configuration while the inverting mode is a low input impedance configuration. This means that the input impedance of
the circuit undergoes an abrupt change as the gain is switched
under control of the comparator. If the gain is switched when
the input signal is not zero, as it is in many practical cases, a
transient is delivered to the circuitry driving the AD630. In
most applications, this requires the AD630 circuit to be driven
by a low impedance source, which remains stiff at high
frequencies. This is generally a wideband buffer amplifier.
The feedback synthesis of the AD630 may also include reactive
impedance. The gain magnitudes match at all frequencies if the
A impedance is made to equal the parallel combination of the
B and F impedances. The same considerations apply to the
AD630 as to conventional op amp feedback circuits. Virtually
any function that can be realized with simple noninverting L
network feedback can be used with the AD630. A common
arrangement is shown in Figure 25. The low frequency gain of
this circuit is 10. The response has a pole (−3 dB) at a frequency
f 1/(2 π 100 kΩ × C) and a zero (3 dB from the high
frequency asymptote) at about 10 times this frequency. The
2 kΩ resistor in series with each capacitor mitigates the loading
effect on circuitry driving this circuit, eliminates stability
problems, and has a minor effect on the pole-zero locations.
FREQUENCY COMPENSATION
As a result of the reactive feedback, the high frequency
components of the switched input signal are transmitted at
unity gain while the low frequency components are amplified.
This arrangement is useful in demodulators and lock-in
amplifiers. It increases the circuit dynamic range when the
modulation or interference is substantially larger than the
desired signal amplitude. The output signal contains the desired
signal multiplied by the low frequency gain (which may be
several hundred for large feedback ratios) with the switching
signal and interference superimposed at unity gain.
C
2kΩ
10kΩ
100kΩ
C
In gain of ±2 applications, the noise gain that must be addressed
for stability purposes is actually 4. In this circumstance, the
phase margin of the loop is on the order of 60° without the
optional compensation. This condition provides the maximum
bandwidth and slew rate for closed loop gains of |2| and above.
When the AD630 is used as a multiplexer, or in other
configurations where one or both inputs are connected for
unity gain feedback, the phase margin is reduced to less than
20°. This may be acceptable in applications where fast slewing is
a first priority, but the transient response is not optimum. For
these applications, the self-contained compensation capacitor
may be added by connecting Pin 12 to Pin 13. This connection
reduces the closed-loop bandwidth somewhat and improves the
phase margin.
For intermediate conditions, such as a gain of ±1 where the
loop attenuation is 2, determine the use of the compensation
by whether bandwidth or settling response must be optimized.
Also, use optional compensation when the AD630 is driving
capacitive loads or whenever conservative frequency compensation is desired.

The channel status output, Pin 7, is an open collector output
referenced to −VS that can be used to indicate which of the two
input channels is active. The output is active (pulled low) when
Channel A is selected. This output can also be used to supply
positive feedback around the comparator. This produces
hysteresis which serves to increase noise immunity. Figure 26
shows an example of how hysteresis may be implemented. Note
that the feedback signal is applied to the inverting (−) terminal
of the comparator to achieve positive feedback. This is because
the open collector channel status output inverts the output
sense of the internal comparator.

The offset voltages of both input stages and the comparator
have been pretrimmed so that external trimming is only
required in the most demanding applications. The offset
adjustment of the two input channels is accomplished by
means of a differential and common-mode scheme. This
facilitates fine adjustment of system errors in switched gain
applications. With the system input tied to 0 V, and a switching
or carrier waveform applied to the comparator, a low level square
wave appears at the output. The differential offset adjustment
potentiometers can be used to null the amplitude of this square
wave (Pin 3 and Pin 4). The common-mode offset adjustment
can be used to zero the residual dc output voltage (Pin 5 and
Pin 6). Implement these functions using 10 kΩ trim potentiometers with wipers connected directly to Pin 8 as shown in
Figure 28 and Figure 29.

BALANCED DEMODULATOR
The balanced modulator topology described in the Balanced
Modulator section also acts as a balanced demodulator if a
double sideband suppressed carrier waveform is applied to
the signal input and the carrier signal is applied to the reference
input. The output under these circumstances is the baseband
modulation signal. Higher order carrier components that can
be removed with a low-pass filter are also present. Other names
for this function are synchronous demodulation and phasesensitive detection.
PRECISION PHASE COMPARATOR
The balanced modulator topologies of Figure 28 and Figure 29
can also be used as precision phase comparators. In this case,
an ac waveform of a particular frequency is applied to the signal
input and a waveform of the same frequency is applied to the
reference input. The dc level of the output (obtained by lowpass filtering) is proportional to the signal amplitude and phase
difference between the input signals. If the signal amplitude is
held constant, the output can be used as a direct indication of
the phase. When these input signals are 90° out of phase, they
are said to be in quadrature and the AD630 dc output is zero.
If the input signal is used as its own reference in the balanced
modulator topologies, the AD630 acts as a precision rectifier.
The high frequency performance is superior to that which can
be achieved with diode feedback and op amps. There are no
diode drops that the op amp must leap over with the commutating amplifier.

Perhaps the most commonly used configuration of the AD630
is the balanced modulator. The application resistors provide
precise symmetric gains of ±1 and ±2. The ±1 arrangement
is shown in Figure 28 and the ±2 arrangement is shown in
Figure 29. These cases differ only in the connection of the
10 kΩ feedback resistor (Pin 14) and the compensation
capacitor (Pin 12). Note the use of the 2.5 kΩ bias current
compensation resistors in these examples. These resistors
perform the identical function in the ±1 gain case. Figure 30
demonstrates the performance of the AD630 when used to
modulate a 100 kHz square wave carrier with a 10 kHz sinusoid.
The result is the double sideband suppressed carrier waveform.

LVDT SIGNAL CONDITIONER
AC BRIDGE
Many transducers function by modulating an ac carrier. A
linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) is a transducer
of this type. The amplitude of the output signal corresponds to
core displacement. Figure 31 shows an accurate synchronous
demodulation system, which can be used to produce a dc
voltage that corresponds to the LVDT core position. The
inherent precision and temperature stability of the AD630
reduce demodulator drift to a second-order effect.
Bridge circuits that use dc excitation are often plagued by
errors caused by thermocouple effects, 1/f noise, dc drifts in the
electronics, and line noise pick-up. One way to get around these
problems is to excite the bridge with an ac waveform, amplify
the bridge output with an ac amplifier, and synchronously
demodulate the resulting signal. The ac phase and amplitude
information from the bridge is recovered as a dc signal at the
output of the synchronous demodulator. The low frequency
system noise, dc drifts, and demodulator noise all get mixed to
the carrier frequency and can be removed by means of a lowpass filter. Dynamic response of the bridge must be traded
off against the amount of attenuation required to adequately
suppress these residual carrier components in the selection
of the filter.

Data Sheet
The test signal is produced by modulating a 400 Hz carrier
with a 0.1 Hz sine wave. The signals produced, for example,
by chopped radiation (that is, IR, optical) detectors may have
similar low frequency components. A sinusoidal modulation
is used for clarity of illustration. This signal is produced by a
circuit similar to Figure 28 and is shown in the upper trace of
Figure 34. It is attenuated 100,000 times normalized to the
output, B, of the summing amplifier. A noise signal that might
represent, for example, background and detector noise in the
chopped radiation case, is added to the modulated signal by the
summing amplifier. This signal is simply band limited, clipped
white noise. Figure 34 shows the sum of attenuated signal plus
noise in the center trace. This combined signal is demodulated
synchronously using phase information derived from the
modulator, and the result is low-pass filtered using a 2-pole
simple filter which also provides a gain of 100 to the output.
This recovered signal is the lower trace of Figure 34.
LOCK-IN AMPLIFIER APPLICATIONS
Lock-in amplification is a technique used to separate a small,
narrow-band signal from interfering noise. The lock-in
amplifier acts as a detector and narrow-band filter combined.
Very small signals can be detected in the presence of large
amounts of uncorrelated noise when the frequency and phase
of the desired signal are known.
The lock-in amplifier is basically a synchronous demodulator
followed by a low-pass filter. An important measure of performance in a lock-in amplifier is the dynamic range of its
demodulator. The schematic diagram of a demonstration circuit
which exhibits the dynamic range of an AD630 as it might be
used in a lock-in amplifier is shown in Figure 35. Figure 34 is
an oscilloscope photo demonstrating the large dynamic range
of the AD630. The photo shows the recovery of a signal modulated at 400 Hz from a noise signal approximately 100,000 times
larger.
5V
5V
The combined modulated signal and interfering noise used for
this illustration is similar to the signals often requiring a lock-in
amplifier for detection. The precision input performance of the
AD630 provides more than 100 dB of signal range and its
dynamic response permits it to be used with carrier frequencies
more than two orders of magnitude higher than in this example.
A more sophisticated low-pass output filter aids in rejecting
wider bandwidth interference.
