CLC532
6
The CLC532 is a 2:1 analog multiplexer with high-impedance
buffered inputs, and a low-impedance, low-distortion, output
stage. The CLC532 employs a closed-loop design, which
dramatically improves accuracy. The channel SELECT control
(Figure 1) determines which of the two inputs (INA or INB) is
present at the OUTPUT. Beyond the basic multiplexer function,
the CLC532 offers compatibility with either TTL or ECL logic
families, as well as adjustable bandwidth.

The CLC532 incorporates compensation nodes that allow both
its bandwidth and its settling time/slew rate to be adjusted.
Bandwidth and settling time/slew adjustments are linked,
meaning that lowering the bandwidth also lowers slew rate
and lengthens settling time. Proper adjustment (compensation)
is necessary to optimize system performance. Time Domain
applications should generally be optimized for lowest RMS
noise at the CLC532 output, while maintaining settling time and
slew rates at adequate levels to meet system needs. Frequency

floating, and the channel SELECT responds to ECL level signals,
Figure 2. For TTL or CMOS level SELECT inputs (Figure 3), DREF
should be tied to +5V (the CLC532 incorporates an internal
2300Ω series isolation resistor for the DREF input). For TTL or
CMOS operation, the channel SELECT requires a resistor input
network to prevent saturation of the channel select circuitry.
Without this input network, channel SELECT logic levels above
3V will cause internal junction saturation and slow switching
speeds.

for increasing values of CCOMP . The RMS noise at the CLC532
