VCA810 High Gain Adjust Range, Wideband and Variable Gain Amplifier

Operating from ±5-V supplies, the device gain control
voltage adjusts the gain from –40 dB at a 0-V input to
40 dB at a –2-V input. Increasing the control voltage
above ground attenuates the signal path to greater
than 80 dB. Signal bandwidth and slew rate remain
constant over the entire gain adjust range. This 40dB/V gain control is accurate within ±1.5 dB (±0.9 dB
for high grade), allowing the gain control voltage in an
AGC application to be used as a received signal
strength indicator (RSSI) with ±1.5-dB accuracy.
High Gain Adjust Range: ±40 dB
Differential In, Single-Ended Out
Low Input Noise Voltage: 2.4 nV/√Hz
Constant Bandwidth vs Gain: 35 MHz
High dB/V Gain Linearity: ±0.3 dB
Gain Control Bandwidth: 25 MHz
Low Output DC Error: < ±40 mV
High Output Current: ±60 mA
Low Supply Current: 24.8 mA
(Maximum for –40°C to 85°C Temperature Range)
Excellent common-mode rejection and commonmode input range at the two high-impedance inputs
allow the device to provide a differential receiver
operation with gain adjust. The output signal is
referenced to ground. Zero differential input voltage
gives a 0-V output with a small DC offset error. Low
input noise voltage ensures good output SNR at the
highest gain settings.

Improved Replacement for VCA610
In applications where pulse edge information is
critical, and the device is being used to equalize
varying channel loss, minimal change in group delay
over gain setting retains excellent pulse edge
information.
An improved output stage provides adequate output
current to drive the most demanding loads. Although
principally intended to drive analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs) or second-stage amplifiers, the
±60-mA output current easily drives doublyterminated 50-Ω lines or a passive post-filter stage
over the ±1.7-V output voltage range.
3 Description
The VCA810 is a DC-coupled, wideband,
continuously
variable,
voltage-controlled
gain
amplifier. The device provides a differential input to
single-ended output conversion with a highimpedance gain control input used to vary the gain
over a –40-dB to 40-dB range linear in dB/V.
