LM1596/LM1496 Balanced Modulator-Demodulator

LM1596/LM1496 Balanced Modulator-Demodulator

February 1995

General Description

The LM1596/LM1496 are doubled balanced modulator-de­modulators which produce an output voltage proportional to
the product of an input (signal) voltage and a switching (car­rier) signal. Typical applications include suppressed carrier
modulation, amplitude modulation, synchronous detection,
FM or PM detection, broadband frequency doubling and
chopping.

The LM1596 is specified for operation over the

a

125§C military temperature range. The LM1496 is speci-

fied for operation over the 0

Ctoa70§C temperature range.
