Circuit operation (1) Operating power supply voltage range Within the operating power supply voltage range, circuit functioning is guaranteed as long as the operating tem­perature range is not exceeded. However, verify carefully that the voltage, temperature, and component values are appropriate. (2) Control pins and control voltage settings
(1) The DC control range is 0 V to V
CC for the preset
equalizer and the dynamic bass boost control pins (pins 18 and 19). Make sure that the voltage applied to these control pins does not exceed V
CC.
(2) Mode switch threshold values are determined by di-
viding resistors between V
CC and GND of both the preset
equalizer and bass boost. If the control voltages are di­vided from the supply voltage of the IC, they will have greater tolerance with respect to V
CC fluctuations.
(3) During mode switching, an abrupt change in the level
of the DC output may occur, causing a sound. In this case, add the capacitor and resistor indicated in the ap­plication, or only the capacitor as needed.
4) Here is an example of determining the control pin voltage setting with the input of three values.
(3) Input coupling capacitors Note that the polarity of the input coupling capacitors will change depending on the DC voltage to which they are connected. Set capacitors based on the frequency band to be used, taking into consideration the fact that the in­put impedance is 50kΩ. (4) Load resistances If the values of the load resistors are too small, the output gain and total harmonic distortion may fluctuate slightly . T ake this into consideration when connecting the subse­quent stage. (5) The dynamic bass boost filter is a multi feedback active filter which forms the B.P.F. F

Connect OUT to the control pin. Regarding the values of the various constants, it is impor­tant to consider current dissipation and other such prob­lems. If such a problem should occur, change the constants and redesign the diode logic.

If R
1 and R2 are too small, the bass boost characteristics
such as boost gain and crosstalk may change. Keep this in mind when setting filter values. Furthermore, design the application so that the bass boost level increments by 5dB from 5 to 20dB when H
O = 19.

(6) Filter for preset equalizer
(1) Low band
The low cutoff frequency fc of each mode is given by the following equation : fc = 1 / 2πCR = 1 / (2π C 15.6kΩ) When C = 0.22µF, fc
46 (Hz) The fc value can be changed to make slight changes in the boost and cutoff gain of each mode.
(2) High band
The high cutoff frequencies fc of each mode are given by the following equation : fc = 1 / 2πCR When C = 2200pF,
ROCK : R = 8.0k fc JAZZ : R = 10.7k fc CLASSIC : R = 14.9k fc BGM. POP : R = 17.4kΩ fc
9.0 (kHz)
6.8 (kHz)
4.8 (kHz)
4.2 (kHz) The fc values can be changed to make slight changes in the boost and cutoff gain of each mode. Note: If a high or low fc value is changed, the gains of all modes will change. The gain cannot be changed for only one mode. (7) ALC The band of ALC detection can be changed with the val­ue of C
4. It must be adjusted appropriately for the dynam-
ic bass boost f
0.1µF, thus fc = 1 / 2πC
O. In the example application circuit C4 =
4 (R5 //R6 //R7)
160 (Hz)
The detection wave is dually rectified. In the example ap­plication circuit, it is 1.3V
rms, but if the resistors R8 and R9
are connected as shown below, it will lower the ALC level. Adjust the ALC level as needed. The detection band at this time is : fc = 1 / 2πC
4 (R5 //R6 //R7 //R8 ///R9)
(8) Attack time and release time Adjust the attack and release times with the resistors and capacitors connected to the ALCC pin. The attack time is determined by R is determined by R
10 (1k) and C5, and the release time
11 and C5. If the value set for C5 is below
4.7µF, the ALC level may become unstable.
