applications
An interesting and versatile group of circuits, the
gated or switched-mode amplifier, can be built from
the 570/571. W ith the device controlled by external
logic applied to the RECT in input, the on gain is nor
mally set to any value and the o ff attenuation can be
in excess of 80 dB. Use o f the 570 or 571 is ad
vantageous in that all portions of the function can be
performed entirely w ithin the IC. Further, the o n /o ff
transition times can be set to a value determined by
the time constant from C r e c t Fig. 4A is a logic controlled amplifier configured
fo r a HIGH input to be on, and LOW off. W hen the
control input is HIGH, CR1 is o ff and the current

conclusions
This discusssion has covered a few uses for a new
and interesting chip. In the course of this article's
preparation several other potential uses suggested
themselves, such as phase com parators, phaselocked loops, voltage-tuned oscillators, and others.
Unfortunately, space and tim e restrictions did not
perm it their complete examination.
