LC551 DATA SHEET
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• adjustable gain to 48 dB
The LC551 is a 10 pin low voltage, class B amplifier which
• capable of driving low impedance receiver (110 Ω)
• low parts count, 3 small capacitors & 1 resistor
D • gain trim can be used as volume control for
E reduced noise
D • minimal start - up transient
N S • frequency bandwidth of 18 kHz
E N STANDARD PACKAGING
M IG • 10 pin PLID ®
• Chip (80 x 61 mils)
operates over a battery voltage range of 1.1 V DC to 3 V DC.
The LC551 consists of three gain blocks. The first block is an
inverting amplifier with the gain set by two external resistors.
This gain trim feature can be used as a volume control in
hearing aid applications. The second block is an inverting
unity gain amplifier which serves as a phase splitter. The
outputs from the first and second blocks drive the differential
inputs of the third block. The third block has a fixed AC gain
of 28 dB when driving a receiver.
This amplifier has internal compensation eliminating the need
for a capacitor across the receiver. Two ground pins are
available for "star " grounding to reduce any second harmonic
distortion produced by ground line resistance.
