CS209A
Description
The CS209A is a bipolar monolithic
integrated circuit for use in metal detection/proximity sensing applications.
The IC (see block diagram) contains two
on-chip current regulators, oscillator
and low-level feedback circuitry, peak
detection/demodulation circuit, a comparator and two complementary output
stages.
The oscillator, along with an external
LC network, provides controlled oscillations where amplitude is highly dependent on the Q of the LC tank. During
low Q conditions, a variable low-level
feedback circuit provides drive to maintain oscillation. The peak demodulator
senses the negative portion of the oscillator envelop and provides a demodulated waveform as input to the comparator. The comparator sets the states
of the complementary outputs by comparing the input from the demodulator
to an internal reference. External loads
are required for the output pins.
A transient suppression circuit is
included to absorb negative transients
at the tank circuit terminal.
