GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD835 is a complete four-quadrant, voltage output analog
multiplier, fabricated on an advanced dielectrically isolated
complementary bipolar process. It generates the linear product
of its X and Y voltage inputs with a −3 dB output bandwidth of
250 MHz (a small signal rise time of 1 ns). Full-scale (−1 V to
+1 V) rise to fall times are 2.5 ns (with a standard RL of 150 Ω),
and the settling time to 0.1% under the same conditions is
typically 20 ns.
1.
Its differential multiplication inputs (X, Y) and its summing
input (Z) are at high impedance. The low impedance output
voltage (W) can provide up to ±2.5 V and drive loads as low as
25 Ω. Normal operation is from ±5 V supplies.
5.
Though providing state-of-the-art speed, the AD835 is simple
to use and versatile. For example, as well as permitting the
addition of a signal at the output, the Z input provides the
means to operate the AD835 with voltage gains up to about ×10.
In this capacity, the very low product noise of this multiplier
(50 nV/√Hz) makes it much more useful than earlier products.
2.
3.
4.
6.
The AD835 is the first monolithic 250 MHz, four-quadrant
voltage output multiplier.
Minimal external components are required to apply the
AD835 to a variety of signal processing applications.
High input impedances (100 kΩ||2 pF) make signal source
loading negligible.
High output current capability allows low impedance loads
to be driven.
State-of-the-art noise levels achieved through careful
device optimization and the use of a special low noise,
band gap voltage reference.
Designed to be easy to use and cost effective in applications
that require the use of hybrid or board-level solutions.
The AD835 is available in an 8-lead PDIP package (N) and an
8-lead SOIC package (R) and is specified to operate over the
−40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.

AD835
Data Sheet
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD835 is a four-quadrant, voltage output analog multiplier,
fabricated on an advanced dielectrically isolated complementary
bipolar process. In its basic mode, it provides the linear product
of its X and Y voltage inputs. In this mode, the −3 dB output
voltage bandwidth is 250 MHz (with small signal rise time of 1 ns).
Full-scale (−1 V to +1 V) rise to fall times are 2.5 ns (with a
standard RL of 150 Ω), and the settling time to 0.1% under the
same conditions is typically 20 ns.
As in earlier multipliers from Analog Devices a unique
summing feature is provided at the Z input. As well as providing
independent ground references for the input and the output and
enhanced versatility, this feature allows the AD835 to operate
with voltage gain. Its X-, Y-, and Z-input voltages are all
nominally ±1 V FS, with an overrange of at least 20%. The
inputs are fully differential at high impedance (100 kΩ||2 pF)
and provide a 70 dB CMRR (f ≤ 1 MHz).
The low impedance output is capable of driving loads as small
as 25 Ω. The peak output can be as large as ±2.2 V minimum
for RL = 150 Ω, or ±2.0 V minimum into RL = 50 Ω. The AD835
has much lower noise than the AD534 or AD734, making it
attractive in low level, signal processing applications, for
example, as a wideband gain control element or modulator.
avoid the needless use of less intuitive subscripted variables
(such as, VX1). All variables as being normalized to 1 V.
For example, the input X can either be stated as being in the −1 V
to +1 V range or simply –1 to +1. The latter representation is found
to facilitate the development of new functions using the AD835.
The explicit inclusion of the denominator, U, is also less helpful, as
in the case of the AD835, if it is not an electrical input variable.
SCALING ADJUSTMENT
The basic value of U in Equation 1 is nominally 1.05 V. Figure 20,
which shows the basic multiplier connections, also shows how
the effective value of U can be adjusted to have any lower
voltage (usually 1 V) through the use of a resistive divider
between W (Pin 5) and Z (Pin 4). Using the general resistor
values shown, Equation 1can be rewritten as
W=
XY
+ kW + (1 − k )Z '
U
(3)
where Z' is distinguished from the signal Z at Pin 4. It follows that
W=
XY
(1 − k )U
+ Z'
(4)
In this way, the effective value of U can be modified to
BASIC THEORY
U’ = (1 − k)U
(5)
The multiplier is based on a classic form, having a translinear core,
supported by three (X, Y, and Z) linearized voltage-to-current
converters, and the load driving output amplifier. The scaling
voltage (the denominator U in the equations) is provided by a
band gap reference of novel design, optimized for ultralow noise.
Figure 19 shows the functional block diagram.
without altering the scaling of the Z' input, which is expected because
the only ground reference for the output is through the Z' input.
In general terms, the AD835 provides the function
In many applications, the exact gain of the multiplier may not
be very important; in which case, this network may be omitted
entirely, or R2 fixed at 100 Ω.

Therefore, to set U' to 1 V, remembering that the basic value of
U is 1.05 V, R1 must have a nominal value of 20 × R2. The values
shown allow U to be adjusted through the nominal range of
0.95 V to 1.05 V. That is, R2 provides a 5% gain adjustment.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The AD835 is easy to use and versatile. The capability for adding
another signal to the output at the Z input is frequently valuable.
Three applications of this feature are presented here: a wideband
voltage-controlled amplifier, an amplitude modulator, and a
frequency doubler. Of course, the AD835 may also be used as a
square law detector (with its X inputs and Y inputs connected in
parallel). In this mode, it is useful at input frequencies to well
over 250 MHz because that is the bandwidth limitation of the
output amplifier only.

Figure 20 shows the basic connections for multiplication. The
inputs are often single sided, in which case the X2 and Y2 inputs
are normally grounded. Note that by assigning Pin 7 (X2) and
Pin 2 (Y2), respectively, to these (inverting) inputs, an extra
measure of isolation between inputs and output is provided.
The X and Y inputs may be reversed to achieve some desired
overall sign with inputs of a particular polarity, or they may be
driven fully differentially.

MULTIPLIER CONNECTIONS
The ac response of this amplifier for gains of 0 dB (VG = 0.25 V),
6 dB (VG = 0.5 V), and 12 dB (VG = 1 V) is shown in Figure 22.
In this application, the resistor values have been slightly adjusted to
reflect the nominal value of U = 1.05 V. The overall sign of the
gain may be controlled by the sign of VG.

Power supply decoupling and careful board layout are always
important in applying wideband circuits. The decoupling
recommendations shown in Figure 20 should be followed
closely. In Figure 21, Figure 23, and Figure 24, these power
supply decoupling components are omitted for clarity but should
be used wherever optimal performance with high speed inputs
is required. However, if the full, high frequency capabilities of the
AD835 are not being exploited, these components can be omitted.

nominally 0 dB to 12 dB. (In fact, the control range extends from
well under –12 dB to about +14 dB.) R1 and R2 set the gain to
be nominally ×4. The attendant bandwidth reduction that comes
with this increased gain is partially offset by the addition of the
peaking capacitor C1. Although this circuit shows the use of
dual supplies, the AD835 can operate from a single 9 V supply
(such as a 9 V battery) with a slight revision. For G = 0 dB, omit
R1 and R2, and connect Pin Z directly to ground. Pin Z must be
connected to a reference; otherwise, the output W floats to a rail.
Figure 23 shows a simple modulator. The carrier is applied to the
Y input and the Z input, while the modulating signal is applied to
the X input. For zero modulation, there is no product term so the
carrier input is simply replicated at unity gain by the voltage
follower action from the Z input. At X = 1 V, the RF output is
doubled, while for X = –1 V, it is fully suppressed. That is, an
X input of approximately ±1 V (actually ±U or about 1.05 V)
corresponds to a modulation index of 100%. Carrier and
modulation frequencies can be up to 300 MHz, somewhat
beyond the nominal −3 dB bandwidth.
Of course, a suppressed carrier modulator can be implemented
by omitting the feedforward to the Z input, grounding that
pin instead.

SQUARING AND FREQUENCY DOUBLING
C1
Amplitude domain squaring of an input signal, E, is achieved
simply by connecting the X and Y inputs in parallel to produce
an output of E2/U. The input can have either polarity, but the
output in this case is always positive. The output polarity can be
reversed by interchanging either the X or Y inputs.

Figure 24 shows a frequency doubler that overcomes this
limitation and provides a relatively constant output over a
moderately wide frequency range, determined by the time
constant R1C1. The voltage applied to the X and Y inputs is
exactly in quadrature at a frequency f = ½πC1R1, and their
amplitudes are equal. At higher frequencies, the X input becomes
smaller while the Y input increases in amplitude; the opposite
happens at lower frequencies. The result is a double frequency
output centered on ground whose amplitude of 1 V for a 1 V
input varies by only 0.5% over a frequency range of ±10%.
Because there is no squared dc component at the output, sudden
changes in the input amplitude do not cause a bounce in the dc level.

When the input is a sine wave E sin ωt, a signal squarer behaves

At ωO = 1/C1R1, the X input leads the input signal by 45° (and is
attenuated by √2, while the Y input lags the input signal by 45°
and is also attenuated by √2. Because the X and Y inputs are 90°
out of phase, the response of the circuit is

which has no dc component, R2 and R3 are included to restore
the output to 1 V for an input amplitude of 1 V (the same gain
adjustment as previously mentioned). Because the voltage across
the capacitor (C1) decreases with frequency, while that across
the resistor (R1) increases, the amplitude of the output varies
only slightly with frequency. In fact, it is only 0.5% below its full
value (at its center frequency ωO = 1/C1R1) at 90% and 110% of
this frequency.
