资 源 简 介
The AD8336 is a low noise, single-ended, linear-in-dB, general-purpose variable gain amplifier, usable over a large range of supply voltages. It features an uncommitted preamplifier (preamp) with a usable gain range of 6 dB to 26 dB established by external resistors in the classical manner. The VGA gain range is 0 dB to 60 dB, and its absolute gain limits are −26 dB to +34 dB. When the preamplifier gain is adjusted for 12 dB, the combined 3 dB bandwidth of the preamp and VGA is 100 MHz, and the amplifier is fully usable to 80 MHz. With ±5 V supplies, the maximum output swing is 7 V p-p.Thanks to its X-Amp® architecture, excellent bandwidth uniformity is maintained across the enTIre gain range of the VGA. Intended for a broad spectrum of applicaTIons, the differenTIal gain control interface provides precise linear-in-dB gain scaling of 50 dB/V over the temperature span of −55°C to +125 °C. The differenTIal gain control is easy to interface with a variety of external circuits within the common-mode voltage limits of the AD8336.
