Functional Description
The SAE 800 is a single-tone, dual-tone or triple-tone gong IC designed for a very wide supply
voltage range. If the oscillator is set to f0 = 13.2 kHz for example, the IC will issue in triple-tone-
mode the minor and major third e2 – C sharp – a, corresponding to 660 Hz – 550 Hz – 440 Hz, in
dual-tone-mode the minor third e2 – C sharp, and in single-tone-mode the tone e2 (derived from
the fundamental frequency f0; f1 = f0 / 20, f2 = f0 / 24, f3 = f0 / 30).
When it is not triggered, the IC is in a standby state and only draws a few µA. It comes in a compact
P-DIP-8-1 or P-DSO-8-1 (SMD) package and only requires a few external components.

Functional Description (cont’d)
An RC combination is needed to generate the fundamental frequency (pin
R
, C
OSC
). The volume
OSC
can be adjusted with another resistor (pin L). The loudspeaker must be connected directly between
the output Q and the power supply VS. The current-sink principle combined with an integrated
thermal shutdown (with hysteresis) makes the IC overload-protected and shortcircuit-protected.
There are two trigger pins (E1, E2) for setting single-tone, dual-tone or triple-tone mode.

Circuit Description
Trigger
Positive pulses on inputs E1 and/or E2 trigger the IC. The hold feedback in the logic has a delay of
several milliseconds. After this delay has elapsed, the tone sequence is started. This prevents
parasitic spikes from producing any effect on the trigger pins.
The following table shows the trigger options:
E1 E2 Mode Issued Sequence
Triggered Triggered Triple-tone Minor and major third
Grounded/open Triggered Dual-tone Minor third
Triggered Grounded/open Single-tone 1st tone of minor third
Oscillator
This is a precision triangle oscillator with an external time constant (R x C). CapacitorCC on pin C
OSC
is charged by constant current to 1 V and then discharged to 0.5 V. The constant current is obtained
on pin R
When the voltage on C
with an external resistor RR to ground.
OSC
is building up, the logic is reset at 350 mV. This always ensures that a
OSC
complete tone sequence is issued. If the oscillator pin is short-circuited to GND during operation,
the sequence is repeated.
The following applies:

Logic
The logic unit contains the complete sequence control. The oscillator produces the power-on reset
and the clock frequency. Single-tone, dual-tone or triple-tone operation is programmed on inputs
E1 and E2. The 4-bit digital/analog converters are driven in parallel. In the event of oscillator
disturbance, and after the sequence, the dominant stop output is set. By applying current to pin L,
the sequence can be shortened by a factor of 30 for test purposes.
The following figure shows the envelope of the triple-tone sequence:

Digital / Analog Converter, Loudness and Junction Control
The DAC converts the 4-bit words from the logic into the appropriate staircase currents with the
particular tone frequency. The sum current IIdrives the following current amplifier. The loudness
generator produces the DAC reference current IL for all three tones. This requires connecting an
external resistor to ground. The chip temperature is monitored by the junction control. At
temperatures of more then approx. 170 ˚C the stop input will switch the output currentII to zero. The
output current is enabled again once the chip has cooled down to approx. 150 ˚C.
Current Amplifier
The current amplifier with a gain of 1600 boosts the current II from approx. 470 µA maximum to
approx. 750 mA maximum. The output stage consists of an NPN transistor with its emitter on power
GND and collector on pin Q.
The current control insures that the output stage only conducts defined currents. In conjunction with
the integrated thermal shutdown, this makes the configuration shortcircuit-protected within wide
limits. Because of the absence of feedback the circuit is also extremely stable and therefore
uncritical in applications. Resistor RL on pin L sets the output voltage swing. This assumes that the
resistive component of the loudspeaker impedance RQ responds similarly as the resistance RL.
The output amplitude of the current II reaches the maximum I
Imax
(only 3 tone mode), so RL has to be scaled for this point.
The following applies:
