controlled amplifiers (VCAs) are high-performance
current-in/current-out devices with two opposing-
polarity, voltage-sensitive control ports. Based on
dbx technology, they offer wide-range exponential
control of gain and attenuation with low signal dis-
tortion. The parts are housed in a space-efficient,
plastic 8-pin single-in-line (SIP) package, and re-

quire minimal support circuitry. Fabricated in a
super low-noise process utilizing high h
mentary NPN/PNP pairs, the 2150 Series VCAs
combine high gain-bandwidth product with low
noise, low distortion, and low offset to offer discrete
performance at IC prices. They are available in
three grades, selected for distortion, allowing the
user to optimize cost vs. performance.
