The AD8336ACPZ-R7 is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a low-distortion, high-performance variable gain amplifier (VGA) with several key features that make it a preferred choice in various applications.
Key Features:
1. Wide Dynamic Range: The AD8336ACPZ-R7 offers a wide input voltage range, ranging from -15 dBV to +5 dBV. This wide dynamic range allows it to handle both weak signals and high-level signals without distortion.
2. Variable Gain Control: This VGA has a gain control range of 60 dB, which can be adjusted in 1 dB increments. This feature enables precise control over the gain of the signal, making it suitable for a wide range of applications requiring variable gain amplification.
3. Low Distortion: The AD8336ACPZ-R7 boasts low distortion characteristics, with a total harmonic distortion (THD) of -105 dBc at 2 Vrms, ensuring accurate and clear signal amplification.
4. Excellent Noise Performance: With a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 92 dB at 2 Vrms, this VGA ensures high-fidelity amplification while minimizing noise interference in the signal path.
5. Integrated AGC Loop: The AD8336ACPZ-R7 features an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) loop, which maintains a constant output level even when the input signal varies significantly
