The transmitter and receiver channels
consistofthreeamplifyingstageseach,F1,
F2, F3 and F4, F5, F6. The inputs of the
amplifiers must be ac. coupled because
they are dc. vise at the internal reference
voltage (≈ 2V) level. F1 and F4 are fixed
gain amplifiers of 29.5 dB and 15.5 dB
respectively, while the rest of them are of
controlled gain type amplifiers.The gain of
F2, F3 as well as F5 and F6 is controlled by
the comparator. Ac. loading the channel
outputs F3 and F6 will lessen the dc.
current consumption, maximum load 10
kΩ. The output capacity can be increased
somewhat in case needed, by coupling a
10 kΩ resistor from the respective output
pin directly to ground (before the optional
capacitor).The comparator receives its in-
formation from the summing point of the
transmitter,receiverandbackgroundnoise
detectors at CMP input. The control input

dB). Amplifiers F2 and F3 have the maxi-
mum gain when the transmitter channel is
fully open, consequently the amplifiers F5
and F6 will have minimum gain and vice
versa. See figure 5 and figure 11.

The positive input on each channel
has a high input impedance. It renders a
goodgainprecisionandnoiseperformance
when used with low impedance signal
source . The negative input of the receiver
channel should be returned to ground with
a capacitor. The differential input of the
transmitter channel can be used to sup-
press unwanted signals in the microphone
supply, see figure 7. Also see application.
