Audio Accessory IC Series
Ground Isolation
Amplifier
BA3121F, BA3123F
No.09092EAT01
●Description
The BA3121F/BA3123F are ground isolation amplifiers deve loped for use in car audio applications.
This IC efficiently eliminate problems caused by wiring resistance, and remove noise generated by the electrical devices
used in automobiles. The capacitance values of the external capacitors required for the ICs are small to allow compact
and reliable set design.
●Features
1) Large capacitors not required
2) High common-mode rejection ratio (57dB typ. at f = 1kHz).
3) Low noise (VNO = 3.5μVrms T yp.).
4) Low distortion (THD = 0.002% Typ.).
5) Two channels.
