LC505/LD505 DATA SHEET
FEATURES
• 71 dB of gain with 1.3 V supply
DESCRIPTION
The LC/LD505 are low voltage, linear monolithic integrated
amplifiers with a typical electrical gain of 71 dB. The circuits
are comprised of a compensated, unconditionally stable,
operational amplifier and a low distortion Class A single
transistor output stage with negative feedback for stability
over a wide temperature range.
• 0.2 to 2.0 mA of transducer current adjustment
• 43 dB of volume control range
• 1.0 to 1.6 V supply operating range
• 2.2 kΩ internal decoupling resistor for microphone
Current trimming in the output stage for inductive or resistive
loads can be accomplished by connecting an emitter resistor
from RE to ground. The LC/LD505 can operate over a supply
voltage range of 1.0 to 1.6 DC.
bias (LD505 only)
• output limiting capabilities (LD505 only)
STANDARD PACKAGING
The LD505 which is an eight pin device, has an internal 2.2 kΩ
decoupling resistor for microphone bias providing increased
supply line rejection. The base of the output transistor is also
accessible allowing connection of diodes in a feedback
configuration for peak limiting.
