SA577Unity gain level programmable low power compandor

DESCRIPTION

The SA577 is a unity gain level programmable compandor designed
for low power applications. The SA577 is internally configured as an
expandor and a compressor to minimize external component count.

FEA TURES

•Operating voltage range: 1.8V to 7V

•Low power consumption (1.4mA @ 3.6V)

•0dB level programmable (10mV

RMS

to 1.0V

RMS

)

•Over 90dB of dynamic range

•Wide input/output swing capability (rail-to-rail)

•Low external component count

•SA577 meets cellular radio specifications

•ESD hardened
