(15V) y Mixers y Wide dynamic range: y Level indicators 117 dB (VCA) y Companding noise reduction systems 60 dB (RMS-level detector) Description The THAT4305 is a single-chip Analog Engine The 4305 was developed specifically for use in optimized for low-cost applications. It incorporates a low-cost dynamics processors, drawing from THAT s high-performance Blackmer voltage-controlled long history and experience with such designs. Both amplifier (VCA) and log-responding RMS-level VCA control ports and the detector input and output sensor. The VCA and RMS detector are pre-trimmed are available for the designer to connect as s/he sees at wafer stage to deliver low distortion without fit. As a result, the part is extremely flexible and can further adjustment. be configured for a wide range of applications including single- and multi-band companders, Available in a small (QSOP) surface-mount digital overload protectors, voltage-controlled faders, package, the 4305 is aimed at line-operated audio level indicators, etc. applications such as compressor/limiters, gates, and other dynamic processors. The part normally What really sets the 4305 apart from other operates from a split supply voltage up to 16Vdc, manufacturers offerings is the transparent sound of drawing only 3.5mA at 15V. This IC also works at its Blackmer VCA, coupled with its accurate true- supply voltages as low as 4.5V, making it useful in RMS level detector. This makes the IC useful in a some battery-operated products as well. wide range of analog audio products.
