The amplifier provides over 15dB of linear gain into 50Ω at 400MHz. Gain control is also provided with over 70dB of dynamic range. The SL6140 offers over 45dB of voltage gain with an RL of 1kΩ. The SL6140 (Figure 3) is a high gain amplifier with an AGC control capable of reducing the gain of the amplifier by over 70dB. The gain is adjustable by applying a voltage to the AGC input via an external resistor (RAGC), the value of which adjusts the curve of gain reduction versus control voltage (see Figure 4). As the output stage of the amplifier is an open collector the maximum voltage gain is determined by RL. With load resistance of 1kΩ the single ended voltage gain is 45dB and with a load resistance of 50Ω the voltage gain is 15dB (20log10 VOUT/VIN). Another parameter that depends on the load resistance is the bandwidth: 25MHz for RL = 1kΩ, as compared with 400MHz for RL = 50Ω. RL is chosen to give either the required bandwidth or voltage gain for the circuit. Figure 7 through to 10 show the typical S parameters for the device. Figures 11 and 12 show the typical variation in 3rd order intercept performance with AGC. In any application, the substrate should be connected to the most negative point in the circuit, usually to the same point as pin 3. +VCC 1.0 F +VCC 2 RL 10n RAGC AGC INPUT 10n INPUT 6 5 8 RL 10n OUTPUT SL6140 4 1 10n OUTPUT 3 7 Figure 1 Typical Application 1 SL6140 OUTPUT +VCC GROUND INPUT 1 2 3 4 8 7 6 5 OUTPUT GROUND INPUT AGC INPUT MP8 Figure 2 Pin Connections Diagram (top view) Electrical Characteristics Tamb = 25°C, VCC = 12V +5%, VIN = 1mVRMS, Frequency = 6MHz, Load (RL) = 10KOHms, RAGC = 22KOHm These characteristics are guaranteed over the following conditions (unless otherwise stated) Characteristic Supply current Output stage current Pin 5,6,7 5,6 (sum) 5,6 5 Value Min Typ 19 7 Max 23 9 Units mA mA Conditions No input signal No input signal Output current matching (magnitude of difference of output currents) AGC range 1.0 mA 2 60 75 dB See Figure 4 & Note 1 (VAGC = 0V to 10V) RL = 1kΩ See Figure 5 & Note 1 Tuned input and output R L = 5 0Ω RL = 1kΩ See Figure 5 RL = 50Ω Voltage gain (single ended) 5,6 5,6 40 45 55 15 25 400 dB dB dB MHz Bandwidth (-3dB) 5,6 Maximum output level (single ended) 0dB AGC -30dB AGC Noise figure Note. 1 Guaranteed but not tested. 5,6 5,6 5,6 3.5 3.5 5 V p-p V p-p dB Note 1 RL = 1kΩ.
