DESCRIPTION
This amplifier circuit contains four 30-dB logarithmic stages. Gain in each stage is such that the output of each
stage is proportional to the logarithm of the input voltage over the 30-dB input voltage range. Each half of the
circuit contains two of these 30-dB stages summed together in one differential output that is proportional to the
sum of the logarithms of the input voltages of the two stages. The four stages may be interconnected to obtain
a theoretical input voltage range of 120-dB. In practice, this permits the input voltage range typically to be greater
than 80-dB with log linearity of ±0.5-dB (see application data). Bandwidth is from dc to 40 MHz.
This circuit is useful in data compression and analog compensation. This logarithmic amplifier is used in log IF
circuitry as well as video and log amplifiers.
The TL441M is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of −55°C to 125°C.

† Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. All voltages, except differential out voltages, are with respect to network ground terminal.
2. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) − TA)/θJA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can affect reliability.
3. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.
4. Long-term high-temperature storage and/or extended use at maximum recommended operating conditions may result in a reduction
of overall device life. See http://www.ti.com/ep_quality for additional information on enhanced plastic packaging.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Although designed for high-performance applications such as infrared detection, this device has a wide range
of applications in data compression and analog computation.
Basic Logarithmic Function
Functional Block Diagram
The basic logarithmic response is derived from
the exponential current-voltage relationship of
collector current and base-emitter voltage. This
relationship is given in the equation:
INPUT

Log
−15 dB
m • VBE = In [(IC + ICES)/ICES]

The differential input amplifier allows dual-polarity
inputs, is self-compensating for temperature
variations, and is relatively insensitive to
common-mode noise.

Logarithmic Sections
As can be seen from the schematic, there are eight differential pairs. Each pair is a 15-dB log subsection, and
each input feeds two pairs, for a range of 30-dB per stage.
Four compensation points are available to allow slight variations in the gain (slope) of the two individual 15-dB
stages of input A2 and B2. By slightly changing the voltage on any of the compensation pins from their quiescent
values, the gain of that particular 15-dB stage can be adjusted to match the other 15-dB stage in the pair. The
compensation pins also can be used to match the transfer characteristics of input A2 to A1 or B2 to B1.
The log stages in each half of the circuit are summed by directly connecting their collectors together and
summing through a common-base output stage. The two sets of output collectors are used to give two log
outputs, Y and Y (or Z and Z), which are equal in amplitude, but opposite in polarity. This increases the versatility
of the device.
By proper choice of external connections, linear amplification, and linear attenuation many different applications
requiring logarithmic signal processing are possible.
Input Levels
The recommended input voltage range of any one stage is given as 0.01 V to 1 V. Input levels in excess of
1 V may result in a distorted output. When several log sections are summed together, the distorted area of one
section overlaps with the next section and the resulting distortion is insignificant. However, there is a limit to the
amount of overdrive that can be applied. As the input drive reaches ± 3.5 V, saturation occurs, clamping the
collector-summing line and severely distorting the output. Therefore, the signal to any input must be limited to
approximately ± 3 V to ensure a clean output.

POST OFFICE BOX 655303
• DALLAS, TEXAS 75265
SGLS268 − OCTOBER 2004
Output Levels
Differential-output-voltage levels are low, generally less than 0.6 V. As demonstrated in Figure 11, the output
swing and the slope of the output response can be adjusted by varying the gain by means of the slope control.
The coordinate origin also can be adjusted by positioning the offset of the output buffer.
Circuits
Figure 11 through Figure 18 show typical circuits using this logarithmic amplifier. Operational amplifiers not
otherwise designated are TLC271. For operation at higher frequencies, the TL592 is recommended instead of
the TLC271.

changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
