ETC LP508

Class A Amplifier with
2 Independent Gain Blocks
LP508 DATA SHEET
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• 1 µV input referred noise
The LP508 is an 8 pin Class A amplifier utilizing Gennum's
proprietary low voltage bipolar JFET technology. It consists of
• 1.0 to 5 VDC operating range
2 single ended, low noise inverting gain blocks. The first block
• 61 dB typical gain (adjustable)
has a typical open loop gain of 50 dB, with the closed loop gain
• 0.28 to 2.0 mA range of transducer current
set by the ratio of the feedback resistor to the the source
• 1 % electrical distortion
impedance. The second block has the output transistor bias
• the first and second blocks can be DC coupled
set by RE and VRE at pin 7 which is 27 mV.
• 4.0 kΩ microphone decoupling resistor, on-chip
• 100 Hz to 50 kHz frequency response
Typically, the gain of the first block is set to 29 dB, with the
• volume control range >40 dB
second block at 32 dB, giving a total gain of 61 dB.
