Frequently Asked Questions
What type of amplifier is the LM13600AN?
The LM13600AN is a dual operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). Unlike standard voltage amplifiers, it produces an output current proportional to the input voltage, with transconductance controlled by an external bias current. It also includes on-chip linearizing diodes and output buffers.
How is the transconductance of the LM13600AN controlled?
The transconductance of the LM13600AN is set by an external amplifier bias current (IABC). Increasing this bias current raises the transconductance, while decreasing it lowers the transconductance. This makes the device well suited for voltage-controlled or digitally-controlled gain and filtering applications.
What supply voltage range does the LM13600AN support?
The LM13600AN operates over a wide supply voltage range of up to ±15V, making it compatible with many standard bipolar supply designs used in audio, signal processing, and instrumentation circuits.
What are typical applications for the LM13600AN?
Typical applications include voltage-controlled filters (VCF), voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCA), voltage-controlled oscillators (VCO), sample-and-hold circuits, multiplexers, and waveform generators. The programmable transconductance makes it especially popular in analog synthesizer designs.
What package does the LM13600AN come in?
The LM13600AN is available in a 16-pin dual-in-line (DIP) package, which is well suited for through-hole prototyping and breadboarding. The DIP form factor also simplifies hand soldering and replacement in serviceable designs.
