General Description
The EL4452 is a complete variable-gain circuit. It offers wide
bandwidth and excellent linearity, while including a powerful
output voltage amplifier, drawing modest current. The higher
gain and lower input noise makes the EL4452 ideal for use in
AGC systems.
The EL4452 operates on
range of
g
0.5V. AC characteristics do not change appreciably
g
5V tog15V and has an analog input
over the supply range.
The circuit has an operational temperature of
b
40§Ctoa85§C
and is packaged in 14-pin P-DIP and SO-14.
The EL4452 is fabricated with Elantec’s proprietary complementary bipolar process which gives excellent signal symmetry
and is very rugged.
