DESCRIPTION
The LD3502 series provides high performance read/write preamplifiers for use in digital
video cameras (DVCs). It provides write current control, data protection circuitry and a low noise
read preamplifier for two channels.
Data protection is provided so that during power supply sequencing the write current
generator is disabled. System write-to-read recovery time is minimized by maintaining the read
channel common-mode output voltage in write mode.
Very low power dissipation is achieved with a single supply, BiCMOS processing and
innovative circuit design techniques in the 5V write circuitry. When idle, the device enters a
Sleep mode in which power dissipation is reduced to less than 3mW.
The LD3502 series is packaged as a 14 pin TSSOP.
