  • LS26VPS/VNS Press Release | Linear Systems

    < Back LS26VPS/VNS Press Release Linear Systems Mar 17, 2023 New JFET Voltage-Controlled Resistors NEWS RELEASE FOR INFORMATION CONTACT: Linear Systems, Inc. Sales Department Phone: (510) 490-9160 Email: sales@linearsystems.com Build lower-voltage, lower-power circuits using Linear Systems' industry-leading voltage-controlled resistors. Linear Systems has expanded its family of JFET Voltage-Controlled Resistors (VCRs) for reduced-power circuits over IC-based devices. Two new additions to the JFET Voltage-Controlled Resistor Family include the LS26VNS, a Single N-Channel JFET VCR, and the LS26VPS, a Single P-Channel JFET VCR. Both the N and P-channel versions are made from the same die geometry, making them complementary. They join the existing VCR11N, a Dual N-Channel VCR. The advantages of using VCRs for voltage-controlled amplifier or voltage-controlled gain systems include: - VCR-based devices operate with lower voltage and power consumption, enabling battery-powered systems to last significantly longer. - VCR JFETs can be used with low-power op amps to provide a low-power solution for voltage-controlled gain systems. - With low voltage op amps such as the LMV358 or TLC272, VCR JFETs perform voltage-controlled gain at extremely low supply voltages, down to a single 3.3V power supply. Circuits can be designed for very low power consumption when combined with low voltage, low power op amps. For instance, using an LSK389A as a VCR for these low voltage circuits can provide significant efficiency gains. - Matched pair JFET VCRs (VCR11N or LSK389A) can provide two identical channels of voltage-controlled gain, where the control voltage tracks both channels. This can be used in stereo audio signal attenuation. In contrast, typical active voltage-controlled amplifiers drain more current and require higher minimum power supply voltages, needing at least +/- 4 volts for a specialized voltage control amplifier integrated circuit. P-Channel JFETs, including a J177, can be designed as a VCR circuit with a single power supply. For example, the P-Channel JFET VCR circuit is ideal with positive supply voltages since its control voltage to the gate is also positive. Product Details: - LS26VNS N-Channel Single JFET VCR: Drain-source resistance is controlled by a DC bias voltage (VGS) applied to a high impedance gate terminal. Minimum RDS of 14 Ω occurs when VGS = -1.0V. As VGS approaches the pinch-off voltage of -6.0V, RDS rapidly increases to the maximum value of 38 Ω. - LS26VPS P-Channel Single JFET VCR: Drain-source resistance is controlled by a DC bias voltage (VGS) applied to a high impedance gate terminal. Minimum RDS of 20 Ω occurs when VGS = 3.0V. As VGS approaches the pinch-off voltage of 7.5V, RDS rapidly increases to the maximum value of 50 Ω. Summary of Features : - LS26VNS (N-Channel Single) - RDS(on) 14-38 Ω - BVgss 30 Volts - Available in TO-92 3L, SOT-23 3L, DFN 8L, and Bare Die options - LS26VPS (P-Channel Single) - RDS(on) 20-50 Ω - BVgss 30 Volts - Available in TO-92 3L, SOT-23 3L, DFN 8L, and Bare Die options Applications: - Variable Gain Controls - Voltage Controlled Oscillators - Signal Attenuators - Musical Effects Applications - Adaptive Analog Filters - Automatic Gain Control Circuits - Clock Generators - Compressors - Electrometers - Energy Harvesters - Expanders - Hearing Aids - Light Dimmers - Modulators - Mixers - Artificial Neural Networks - Programmable Gain Amplifiers - Phased Arrays - Phase Lock Loops - Phase Controlled Dimming Circuits - Phase Delay and Advance Circuits - Tunable Filters - Variable Attenuators - Voltage Controlled Multivibrators - Waveform Generators Pricing and Availability: - 1,000+ pieces of the LS26VNS and LS26VPS in the TO-92 3L, SOT-23 3L, and DFN 8L packages are priced at $1.23 (USD) each. - Production quantities are available now with delivery from factory stock to 8 weeks.

  • LSK389 Press Release | Linear Systems

    < Back LSK389 Press Release Linear Systems Mar 17, 2023 Ultra-Low Noise, Monolithic Dual, N-Channel JFET NEWS RELEASE FOR INFORMATION CONTACT: Linear Systems, Inc. Sales Department Phone: (510) 490-9160 Email: sales@linearsystems.com Industry’s First 100% Noise Tested, Ultra-Low Noise, Monolithic Dual, N-Channel JFET FREMONT, CA – 01/21/2020 – Linear Systems announces the re-release of their most popular part, the LSK389 Series, Ultra-Low Noise, Monolithic Dual, N-Channel JFET, now 100% tested to meet or exceed noise specifications. The LSK389 is the lowest noise Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET) in its class and has been used in ultra-high-end applications for over a decade. The LSK389 enables developers to create the lowest noise signal chains possible for sensors, professional audio equipment, and other applications. Linear Systems is releasing the LSK389 after developing the capability for individual screening of small-signal discrete components to levels below a billionth of a volt (nV/√Hz) of noise in quantities up to tens of thousands of parts. This testing capability – the only one in existence worldwide – ensures all LSK389s leaving the factory produce no burst (RTN or popcorn) noise and meet or exceed 1/f and broadband noise specifications. The LSK389, Ultra-Low Noise, Monolithic Dual, N-Channel JFET provides designers with a better-performing solution for obtaining tighter IDSS matching and better thermal tracking than using individual JFETs or non-monolithic dual JFETs. The part is an ideal combination of high transconductance, ultra-low noise, and relatively low input capacitance. The LSK389 is the lead part of Linear Systems’ family of low-noise JFETs. The LSK170 is the N-channel single version of the LSK389, and the LSJ74 is the P-channel counterpart to the LSK170. The N-channel dual LSK489 has slightly higher noise but lower input capacitance than the LSK389, and the LSJ689 is its P-channel dual counterpart. All Linear Systems’ JFET standard products have substantially lower noise than those made by other manufacturers and are marketed under the Improved Standard Products® trademark. Summary of Features: - Ultra-Low Noise: en = 1.3nV/√Hz (typ), f = 1.0kHz and NBW = 1.0Hz - Four grades of IDSS: 2.6-6.5mA, 6.0-12.0mA, 10.0-20.0mA, and 17-30mA, with an IDSS match of 10% - Tight Matching: IVGS1-2I = 15mV max - High Breakdown Voltage: BVGSS = 40V max - High Gain: Gfs = 20mS (typ) - Relatively Low Capacitance: 25pF (typ) - Available in surface mount SOIC 8L and thru-hole TO-71 6L packages Benefits: - Improved Signal Chain Noise Performance - Better Matching and Thermal Tracking Due to Unique Monolithic Interleaved Dual Design Construction - Better Performance for Battery-Operated Applications by Providing a Wide Output Swing Applications: - Ultra-Sensitive Sensor Applications - Audio Amplifiers and Preamps - Discrete Low-Noise Operational Amplifiers - Battery-Operated Audio Preamps - Audio Mixer Consoles - Sonic Imaging - Instrumentation Amplifiers - Microphones - Sonobuoys - Hydrophones - Chemical and Radiation Detectors Pricing and Availability: - 1,000+ pieces of the LSK389A SOIC 8L package are priced at $4.67 (USD) each. - 1,000+ pieces of the LSK389A TO-71 6L package are priced at $6.70 (USD) each.
