Figure 15. This Accurate HF AGC Amplifier Uses Just Three Active Components
A simple
First, consider the particular case where R2 is zero and the out- put voltage VOUT is a square wave at, say, 100 kHz, that is, well above the corner frequency of the control loop. During the time VOUT is negative, Q1 conducts; when VOUT is positive, it is cut off. Since the average collector current is forced to be 300 μA, and the square wave has a 50%
700mV) or 2 VBE
tude at which the output stabilizes, has a strong negative tem- perature coefficient (TC), typically
To understand this, first note that the current in the AD590 is closely proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT). (In fact, this IC is intended for use as a thermometer.) For the moment, continue to assume that the signal is a square wave. When Q1 is
conducting, VOUT is the now the sum of VBE and a voltage which is PTAT and which can be chosen to have an equal but opposite
TC to that of the
Since the average emitter current is 600 μA during each half- cycle of the square wave, a resistor of 833 Ω would add a PTAT voltage of 500 mV at 300 K, increasing by 1.66 mV/°C. In prac- tice, the optimum value of R2 will depend on the transistor used, and, to a lesser extent, on the waveform for which the tem- perature stability is to be optimized; for the devices shown and sine wave signals, the recommended value is 806 Ω. This resistor also serves to lower the peak current in Q1 and the 200 Hz LP filter it forms with C2 helps to minimize distortion due to ripple in VG. Note that the output amplitude under sine wave condi- tions will be higher than for a square wave, since the average value of the current for an ideal rectifer would be 0.637 times as large, causing the output amplitude to be 1.88 (= 1.2/0.637) V, or 1.33 V rms. In practice, the somewhat nonideal rectifier results in the sine wave output being regulated to about 1.275 V rms.
An offset of +375 mV is applied to the inverting
+625 mV range for VG is translated upwards (at VG´) to
In fact, the 6 dB interstage attenuator means that the overall gain of this AGC system actually runs from
