9 / 16 page REV. B SSM2166 –9– INPUT – dB VDE VRP VCA GAIN 1 1 r:1 Figure 8. Effect of Varying the VCA Gain Setting The gain of the VCA can be reduced below 0 dB by making RGAIN smaller than 1 k Ω. Switching Pin 2 through 330 Ω or less to ground will mute the output. Either a switch connected to ground or a transistor may be used, as shown in Figure 9. To avoid audible “clicks” when using this mute feature, a capacitor (C5 in figure) can be connected from Pin 2 to GND. The value of the capacitor is arbitrary and should be determined empiri- cally, but a 0.01 µF capacitor is a good starting value.

Details of SSM2166 Mute Option Downward Expansion Threshold The downward expansion, or noise gate, threshold is deter- mined via a second reference voltage internal to the control circuitry. This second reference can be varied in the SSM2166 using a resistor, RGATE, connected between the positive supply and the NOISE GATE SET pin (Pin 9) of the SSM2166. The effect of varying this threshold is shown in Figure 10. The downward expansion threshold may be set between 300 µV rms and 20 mV rms by varying the resistance value between Pin 9 and the supply voltage. Like the ROTATION PT ADJUST, the downward expansion threshold is inversely proportional to the value of this resistance: setting this resistance to 1 M Ω sets the threshold at approximately 250 µV rms, whereas a 10 kΩ resistance sets the threshold at approximately 20 mV rms. This relationship is illustrated in TPC 2. A potentiometer network is provided on the evaluation board for this adjustment. In general, the downward expansion threshold should be set at the lower extreme of the desired range of the input signals, so that signals below this level will be attenuated. VCA GAIN INPUT – dB VDE1 VRP VDE3 VDE2 1 1 r:1 Figure 10. Effect of Varying the Downward Expansion (Noise Gate) Threshold Power-Down Feature The supply current of the SSM2166 can be reduced to under 100 µA by applying an active high, 5 V CMOS compatible input to the SSM2166’s POWER DOWN pin (Pin 12). In this state, the input and output circuitry of the SSM2166 will assume a high impedance state; as such, the potentials at the input pin and the output pin will be determined by the external circuitry connected to the SSM2166. The SSM2166 takes approximately 200 ms to settle from a POWER-DOWN to POWER-ON com- mand. For POWER-ON to POWER-DOWN, the SSM2166 requires more time, typically less than 1 second. Cycling the power supply to the SSM2166 can result in quicker settling times: the off-to-on settling time of the SSM2166 is less than 200 ms, while the on-to-off settling time is less than 1 ms. In either implementation, transients may appear at the output of the device. To avoid these output transients, use mute control of the VCA’s gain as previously mentioned. PC Board Layout Considerations Since the SSM2166 is capable of wide bandwidth operation and can be configured for as much as 80 dB of gain, special care must be exercised in the layout of the PC board that contains the IC and its associated components. The following applica- tions hints should be considered and/or followed: (1) In some high system gain applications, the shielding of input wires to minimize possible feedback from the output of the SSM2166 back to the input circuit may be necessary. (2) A single-point (“star”) ground implementation is recom- mended in addition to maintaining short lead lengths and PC board runs. The evaluation board layout shown in Figure 13 for the SSM2166 demonstrates the single-point grounding scheme. In applications where an analog ground and a digital ground are available, the SSM2166 and its surrounding circuitry should be connected to the system’s analog ground. As a result of these recommendations, wire-wrap board connections and grounding implementations are to be explicitly avoided. (3) The internal buffer of the SSM2166 was designed to drive only the input of the internal VCA and its own feedback net- work. Stray capacitive loading to ground from the BUFOUT pin in excess of 5 pF to 10 pF can cause excessive phase shift and can lead to circuit instability. |
