ML33111
Low Voltage Compander
Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuit
Legacy Device:
Motorola MC33111
The ML33111 contains two variable gain circuits configured for compress-
ing and expanding the dynamic range of an audio signal. One circuit is config-
ured as an expander, and the other is configured as a compressor. Each circuit
has a full wave rectifier to provide average value information to a variable gain
cell located in either the input stage or the feedback path. An internal tempera-
ture stable bandgap reference provides the necessary precision voltages.
Included in the ML33111 are controls for muting each section independ-
ently, and for pass through of both. Two uncommitted op amps are available
for peripheral functions.
The ML33111 will operate from a supply voltage of 3.0 V to 7.0 V and
,
over a temperature range of TA –40° to +85°C. It is designed to accommodate
a 60 dB dynamic range; from –40 dB to +20 dB referenced to 100 mVrms.
Applications include cordless telephone, CBs, walkie-talkies, and most
voice RF links, and any application where an improvement in the signal to
noise ratio is desired. Other applications include speakerphones and voice
activated intercoms, dictating machines, etc.

Description
Connect to a clean power supply ground.
Output of the compressor section.
Compressor input. The input impedance is nominally 10 kΩ. Nominal signal range is
1.0 mVrms to 1.0 Vrms in normal mode, and up to 0.8 Vrms in passthrough mode.
Must be capacitor coupled to the signal source.
A logic high mutes the compressor. A logic low permits normal operation and passthrough.
Connect an external capacitor to filter the full wave rectifier’s output.
This capacitor affects attack and decay times, and low frequency accuracy.
Inverting input (7) and output (6) of an op amp internally referenced to Vb.
A logic high sets the gain of both expander and compressor to
≈
0 dB, independent of
input level.
Inverting input (9) and output (10) of an op amp internally referenced to Vb.
Connect an external capacitor to filter the full wave rectifier’s output.
This capacitor affects attack and decay times, and low frequency accuracy.
A logic high mutes the expander. A logic low permits normal operation and passthrough.
This pin is not internally connected to anything.
Expander input. The input impedance is nominally 10.9 kΩ. Nominal signal range is
10 mVrms to 316 mVrms in normal mode, and up to 1.0 Vrms in passthrough mode.
Must be capacitor coupled to the signal source.
Output of the expander section.
Power supply. Connect to a power supply voltage in the range of 3.0 V to 7.0 V.
Bypass capacitor should be provided at this pin.
