Description

SERIES UHP-480 display drivers are bipolar monolithic integrated circuits - high-voltage switches designed for interface
applications between MOS or open-collector TTL logic and gas
discharge displays. They are packaged in industry standard
dual-in-line plastic packages and are available with 5
(UHP-480), 7 (UHP-481), or 8 (UHP"482) switches per
package.

UHP-481
16-Lead Dual In-Line

Applications
Sprague Series UHP-480 drivers may be used with gas
discharge displays, such as Burroughs Panaplex"', Cherry
Plasma-Lux'" and Beckman SP Series devices, intended for use
in the cathode portion of the displays. Applications include
calculators, DVM's, DMM's, DPM's, mini-computers, clocks,
etc. These drivers replace the major portion of discrete components typically required to interface between aMOS
calculator or counter/decoder circuit and a gas discharge
display. Their high reliability and small size make them an excellent choice for applications where space is at a premium.

CONSISTING of six or eight NPN Darlington output stages and
the associated common-emitter input stages, these drivers are
designed to interface between low-level digital logic and vacuum
fluorescent displays. All devices are capable of driving the digits
and/ or segments of these displays and are designed to permit all outputs to be activated simultaneously. Pull-down resistors are incorporated into each output and no external components are required
for most fluorescent display applications. The highest voltage parts
(suffix A-I) are also used in gas-discharge display applications as
anode (digit) drivers.
Twenty-four standard devices are listed, so that a circuit designer
may select the optimum device for his application. Input
characteristics, number of drivers, package style, and output voltage
are tabulated for each device in the Device Type Number Designation
chart. With any device, the output load is activated when the input is
pulled towards the positive supply (active 'high'). All units operate
over the temperature range of -20 o e to +85°e.

A Monolithic Ie Series
for Gas-Discharge Display Interface
Introduction

The switching of the high voltages necessary for
display panels such as the Burroughs Panaplex@ has
long presented difficulties to the semiconductor industry - particularly to IC manufacturers. It is difficult
to fabricate devices capable of sustaining 200 volts or
greater with standard IC processes of today. Solutions
to the high voltage gas discharge display interface also
must be inexpensive as well as functional; this cost/
simplicity factor prohibits most unusual or exotic circuit designs and/or IC processes.
The earliest (and a great many recent) gas discharge
interface schemes used discrete components, but that
has been an increasingly cumbersome and expensive
solution. Competition at the system level has largely
come from LEDs, and a great many standard ICs are
available for the smaller LEDs. In most instances, the
small displays have gone to LEDs. However, the larger
display applications are still an opportunity for gas
discharge since character size and cost are not directly
related. The cost impact upon the potential for gas
discharge displays in many systems is a function of
interface complexity and cost, and it was to this end
that a joint Sprague/Burroughs effort was launched.
Early Sprague/Burroughs meetings were held to define the relevant factors involved in such a program
and provide the necessary insight for both parties into

Vss

Figure 1

the capabilities of diode isolated ICs, the voltage and
current requirements of the Panaplex displays, the need
for minimization of power (battery systems), packaging of the circuits, component count and cost, etc.
Add to this the potential for use with feedback controlled supplied, poorly regulated doc supplies, the
wide variety of numbers of display digits, the range
of digit sizes (in use or contemplated), etc., and our
task was not to be an easy one.
Our direction was determined by two factors: a history of fabricating 130-140 volt PN diode isolated
display circuits, and a more recent effort to utilize
compatible thin-film resistor technology. These factors, coupled with considerable expertise in designing
and processing high voltage ICs, dictated an approach
utilizing a split (± 100 V) supply. The split supply
would provide the 200 volts needed to ionize the display and the resistor capability would greatly aid the
incorporation of functions previously done by discrete
components - including both input and output (segment) current limiting, pulldown (open drain PMOS),
pullup and pulldown reference for IC outputs, and a
high impedance voltage divider for the output OFF
bias. All level shifting is accomplished via use of PNP
or NPN transistors, and the capacitors previously required were negated.

HIGH-VOLTAGE INTERFACE DRIVERS (Continued)

Basic Scheme

Digit Interface

Replacing discrete components through incorporating their function into this IC series results in
the block diagram of Figure 1 with its .basic requirement for a single digit and single segment
driver; a scheme capable of driving as many as eight
digits and the eight segments. Additional digits or
segments beyond the eight provided in an I8-lead
DIP may be driven by combinations of packages
beyond the minimum two necessary. Example:
three ICs - two digit and one segment - will
fulfill the needs of a 12 to 16 digit calculator.
Included in this series of high voltage interface
are two digit driver packages: UDN-6I64 (6-digit),
and UDN-6l84 (8-digit). Segment drivers include
the UDN-7I80, UDN-7I83, UDN-7I84, and
UDN-7I86, and the four offer current ranges compatible with display sizes from 0.250" to 1"
panels, and others will be made available as needs
are defined.

The digit driver is the more complex of the two
and its schematic is shown in Figure 2. Input address polarity is positive (active high in TTL parlance) and the circuit is designed to interface from
TTL (4.5 volts from open collector - or using
pull-up to Vee), CMOS, PMOS, etc. Input currentlimiting and one-half of the pull-down for open
drain PMOS is the function of Rs; R6 adds the
second half of the pull-down to the ground bus.
The protective value of R. and Rs must be noted; a
junction failure in Q, has the two resistors as a
current limiter to the MOS (or TTL) output and will
minimize the likelihood of destroying the low level
logic outputs.
Input transistor Q. is a high voltage inverter and
sinks the base current of PNP Q3' A positive input
(4.5 to 20 V) will turn on Q. and this base current
(65 11A typ.) for PNP Q3 will tum on the output
Darlington (Q, and Q,) and source digit current.

some known ratio of R2 • The ground terminal (#9) is
referenced near, or connected directly to ground, and
the VKK line is typically a - 90 to -100 volts.

Consistent ionization and extinguishing of the
display panel is the result of the 60-75 volt swings
available from both digit and segment ICs. The conditions that previously created problems for the
'direct MOS drive with minimal swings at the output
have been very adequately handled with the increased
output swings of the 610017100 series. Problems
from leading zero blanking, low temperature, low
ambient light, etc. which previously gave difficulty
are well taken care of with this series of ICs.

The input PNP (Q)} serves as a level translator and
provides d-c level shifting to the output Darlington
(Q2 and Q3)· Emitter resistor (R 3) both limits the input current and furnished pUll-down for open drain
PMOS. An added intent is the measure of protection
furnished the MOS by the very high impedance of

resistors R" R2, and R 3• Address polarity is again

20 volts above ground and will function with input
levels obtained from CMOS and open collector TIL

pieces, and the board layout is straightforward and
uses single-sided board.
Many calculator interface schemes use considerable numbers of components (70 to 100
typically) to drive gas discharge panels. As one
example: a twelve digit/eight segment machine uses
85-90 discretes while the new IC version uses only
three packages,' and results in less space along with
considerable simplification. Other applications will
benefit similarly with this series of circuits.

Summary

The impact of this new product family may be seen
in the typical digital clock of Figure 5. This a-c
powered clock uses a Mostek 50250 clock IC, a
UDN-6164 digit driver, and a UDN-7183 segment
driver. Total component count is approximately 30

Display technology and usage has emerged at a
mind boggling rate in the past several years - largely
due to the fantastic growth rate of calculators. The

this burgeoning market, but like all the other displays

available does not meet the requirements for an ideal
display.
Gas discharge panels are a fine combination of
aesthetics, reliability, low cost, large character size,
mUltiplexing capability, etc., but have been impacted
to some degree by the lack of an available and inexpensive, totally monolithic interface. The move
toward Ie interface for displays has stifled some
potential - largely in favor of LEDs; although many
applications requiring large characters and/or .in
high ambient light turn toward gas panels. The
planar gas discharge display is a long way from obscurity, and the availability of this family of les
should open up new areas as well as satisfying
existing systems.

The intent from the inception of this program has
been to produce and provide a standard, inexpensive
and easy to use interface for gas discharge displays.
A great many potential applications exist for these
circuits in consumer and commercial products. From
the calculator and digital clock areas this product
also win find use in automotive dashboards, pointof-sale systems,' electronic cash registers and scales,
and instrumentation. The market for displays is still
very elastic, and many applications for gas discharge
panels. are continuing to appear. The Sprague contribution to this market is this series of state-of-theart interface les.

TRENDS IN IC INTERFACE
FOR ELECTRONIC DISPLAYS
Introduction

Display technology was truly set into high gear by the explosion of the electronic calculator
business. Expansion at a phenomenal pace continues, encompassing a multitude of products,
particularly high-volume consumer products (calculators, clocks, games, and watches). Recently, further stimulated by the "microprocessor revolution," with its far-reaching effects,
and the resulting changeover to solid state design from electromechanical, mechanical, fluidic,
or electrical systems, the vistas for displays have expanded well beyond the horizon. Products
have been and are being developed, using microprocessors and displays, that never previously
existed.
To augment this microprocessor revolution, semiconductor manufacturers are developing
many new interface circuits useful with displays, although some of these will not be exclusively for display systems. To accomplish this, the present boundaries of device design,
process, packaging, and electrical parameters will require continual extension and expansion.
Display Buffers

A continuing evolution of standard interface ICs is needed to buffer low-level logic from
high-voltage and/or high-current loads. Some of this buffer development will serve display
systems. Since there already is a broad assortment of buffers (particularly for low- to
medium-current LED applications), the ongoing development in simple or low-order interface
will mainly concentrate upon further reduction in discrete component count, package improvement (particularly for high-current/high-power devices), improvements in device current, voltage, switching speed, and greater reliability.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 show some Sprague interface ICs that represent buffer circuits; other
vendors supply similar, or identical, high-current or high-voltage buffers to allow operation of
displays from low-level logic. Two basic changes have occurred relatively recently:
1. Greater use of I8-pin DIPs for eight driver channels (Source Driver, Figure 2).
2. Creation of sourcing functions (Figures 2 and 3; useful for LED, gas-discharge, vacuum
fluorescent, incandescent, and electromagnetic displays, depending upon device
ratings). While further buffer designs are needed (particularly in high-current ( > 2 A)
and high-voltage ( > 100 V) circuits), the main emphasis will be toward the incorporation of logic and control circuitry with output buffers.
Complex Interface

Paralleling (though lagging) the microprocessor LSI revolution is the area of greatest future
for IC display circuits: The need for complex, smart or high-order interface. This will be MSI
to LSI logic (with perhaps some linear functions) combined with suitable output buffers.

Display interface ICs (similar to the MOS I/O control chips), both custom and standard
product, are becoming available in this category. High-volume applications may justify
custom ICs, but the more general trend will be toward standard, off-the-shelf designs chiefly due to the high costs of developing custom ICs.
The higher voltage displays (gas-discharge, vacuum fluorescent, a-c plasma, and doc
electroluminescent) may share some circuits (if appropriately planned and designed), particularly in the area of matrix displays. It is difficult to imagine, however, much commonality
between high-current LEDs, high-voltage gas-discharge or a-c plasma, and low-power LCDs,

for use with vacuum fluorescent displays. Figure 5 shows the UCN-481OA lO-bit serial-in!
parallel-out interface for use with VF displays; the use of serial data allows 10 output lines,

Device Technologies

With the exception of LCD displays (which at least until recently have been largely, if not
entirely, driven by MOS) the display and interface technologies in high-volume use are mainly
associated with bipolar semiconductors. Early display interface ICs (particularly devices such
as the 7447 and 7448) were aimed at LED technology and represent MSI with modest output
capability. The increasing use of higher voltage displays, multiplexed high-current applications, and the need for greater circuit complexity and low pin count will dictate other
technologies, such as 12L, BiMOS, CMOS/DMOS, and possibly DMOS.

Standard Bipolar

Standard bipolar technology, long associated with TTL or linears (early op amps), appears
very limited in scope for the future. Circuit density and supply power requirements will dictate
other processes for functions beyond the simple MSI level. The advantages .of standard bipolar
ICs appear to be in the areas of simple high-current, high-power or high-voltage interface. In
particular, applications requiring the combination of high voltages ( '" ioo V) or multiple
high-current outputs ( '" 2 A) will restrict the logic Icontrol circuitry to a low level. Cost, chip
size and package power dissipation will restrict this circuitry largely to versatile, simple
buffers.

Anticipated to increase significantly is the use of 12L for systems of low to modest voltages
(LEDs through VF). The present limits oftL appear to be limited to applications below the 50to 60-volt level. 12L, with its combination of circuit density, low power and reasonable
switching speeds should make a fine match for LEDs or other low-voltage display applications. For higher voltages ( > 25 or30 V), prospects the penalty of reduced circuit density may
diminish its cost effectiveness. Some increase in standoff voltage may be afforded by the uses
of cascaded output transistors or p'rocess improvements, thus reducing the need to sacrifice
logic density. Without a standard 12L logic family, the main market penetration would appear
to be custom designs although there is a definite opportunity for standard interface for lower
voltage applications, particularly LEDs and vacuum fluorescent.

2-34

HIGH-VOLTAGE INTERFACE DRIVERS (Continued)

BiMOS

BiMOS, a combination of CMOS and bipolar for interface ICs, seems to fit a technology
niche of higher breakdown voltages than tL, especially where logic power and supply voltage
range (5 to 15 V) is important. BiMOS or BiFET ICs, which are presently on the market, are
largely related to operational amplifiers, although other uses, such as the Sprague application
of BiMOS to interface, are emerging.
.
Currently, it is fea~.ible to design and manufacture BiMOS interface with breakdown
voltages in the 80 to 100 V range. With additional timeand greater concentration on increasing
BV, it appears that higher voltages ( ,. 150 V) for output buffers could be obtained. By
obtaining breakdowns in the 120 V to 160V range, BiMOS then becomes a viable IC
technology for interface for the higher voltage displays: doc gas-discharge with ±100 to
±130 V; a-c plasma with 160 to 170 V, and glowtransfer or doc electroluminescent (DCEL)
opportunities with a range of 120-150 volts.
Switching speeds and output configurations(active pull-dowrlor resistive) are critical to
matrix displays (particularly a-cplasma) with large numbers of drive lines. Adding active
pull-down or pull-up will fend to increase <;hip size (and cost), thus adding to the potential
overall difficulty of BiMOS with its greater process complexity and slightly longer manufacturing cycle. This does appear to be a very key technology for the near future. Its product niche
will include for applications requiring 60 to 100 V (or more) breakdowns, low-power l()gic,
wide supply range, modest speeds, and MSI to small LSI.

CMOSIDMOS

Chiefly beingcarril?d on by Texas Instruments, CMOS /DMOS aisplayinterfaceappears to
be intended for much of the same display market as BiMOS. Product information now
available indicates 60 to 100 V breakdown (DMOS outputs), CMOS logic, low to modest
output currents ( '" 25 rnA), and logic speedsJo 4 MHz. Designs now being promoted are
targeted toward a-c plasma and vacuum fluorescent panels.
Two apparent disadvantages now appear to exist:
1. Logic operates from 12 V ±1O% (may be done to provide maximum speed).
2. Output drive current is insufficient for high-current displays (without 100 rnA, or
more, the larger matrix panels will use discretes or another technology).
These shortcomings may be modified with time, although it is doubtful if 500 rnA to 1 A
DMOS outputs are practical.

2-35

D

HIGH-VOLTAGE INTERFACE DRIVERS (Continued)

Dielectric Isolation

Affording the highest breakdown voltage capability of present technologies is dielectric
isolation. Since there is no collector-to-substrate PN junction, nor a collector-to-isolation wall
PN junction, considerable improvement in collector-to-base and collector-to-emittervoltage is
possible. Additionally, transistor sizes are considerably smaller than their PN-isolated counterparts. The dielectric ally isolated devices offered by Dionics span a spectrum of approximately 100 volts to 280 volts (a-c plasma driver). DI affords the maximum breakdown voltage
capability currently available.
Opposing this great advantage in breakdown voltage, however, is the increased process
complexity of dielectrically isolated Ies. Definite improvements are needed in the area of
process simplification, cost reduction, and alternate sources. Large-volume use of DI circuits
will be restrained until these problems (particularly alternate sources) can be overcome. DI
interface, with its potential for 300 V transistors, has a great promise if the barriers can be
overcome.

Packaging

Semiconductor design and process have greatly outstripped packaging currently in use,
particularly in the area of power~handling capability. Greater concentration and resources are
required to solve some of the following display interface related problems:
1. DIP power dissipation.
2. Greater number of leads (and smaller package sizes).
3. Improved plastic DIP resistance to moisture and corrosive environments.
4. Lower package manufacturing costs.
5. Smaller module or display subassemblies.

2-36

HIGH-VOLTAGE INTERFACE DRIVERS (Continued)

Power dissipation difficulties (strobed high currents) are most associated with LEDs. Use of
very low duty-cycle and bright LEDs (particularly alphanumeric and matrix) dictates a need for
multiplexing with peak currents as high as 3 A. Nothing currently on the, market exceeds
I. 75 A per output, and DIP ratings preclude doc operation at such currents. However, many of
the high-current applications are within the capability of standard bipolar ICs now offered.
For LSI ICs containing many I/O lines, the 24-,28-, and 40-lead DIPs are standard. Since
package size and cost increase together, it may be desirable to constrain many newer ICs to
18-,20-, or 22-lead DIPs (with 0.300" spacing, 22 also in use with 0.450" width). Printed
wiring board real estate is increasingly dictating smaller size. Solutions such as the quad in-line
(Rockwell) or less than 0.100" centers are possible. There are problems associated with a
non-standard configuration (lack of sockets and higher prices) and the smaller physical size
will not aid the quest for higher power (LEDs).
Improvements in plastic DIP moisture resistance and reliability are already underway; uses
of tri-metal schemes (such as RCA's), silicon nitride or quartz passivation will continue to
improve resistance to moisture and corrosive fumes. For display applications, these reliability
improvements are of greatest concern in high-voltage devices.
Lower package costs are necessary to further increase the use of ICs in areas such as flat
panel matrix displays. Currently, much of the cost of such a system is related to drive
electronics, and much of the cost of the interface is the assembly cost of the DIPs (or hybrids).
Increased use of automated assembly, film-carrier techniques and solder bumps will enhance
the choice of ICs over discretes, and flat panel over CRT.
Also of concern is the possible mating of IC chips, solder-bump chips, or film-strip chips
into the display assembly. Candidates for such a treatment would include doc and a-c plasma,
LEDs (already being done to a degree), DCEL, ACEL, LCD, and VF. Panel technologies
using thick or thin-film techniques could benefit from such an approach. The biggest barrier to
such. an integrated assembly is the market data needed to justify tooling and lead time. It will
only require one manufacturer willing to be a pioneer to further swing display technology into
integrated systems. Prospects for purchasing a display complete with all drive electronics,
such as a flat panel a-c plasma matrix (chips mounted via hybrid techniques on the rear of the
glass envelope), are improving with time.

Summary

A bright future exists for IC interface in display systems; the combination of logic (from
MSI to small LSI) with suitable output buffers will further assist display designs. The
following IC Technology-Display Interface matrix lists the key characteristics and primary
display applications of various semiconductor technologies. Since many of these characteristics are changing, the table lists the device characteristics either now available or for the near
future.
The most dynamic technologies for the immediate future appear to be BiMOS, I'L,
CMOS/DMOS, and, perhaps soon, DMOS. Sprague, Dionics, RCA, Texas Instruments,
National Semiconductor, .and others are using these device technologies to carve market niches
where suitable. The dynamics of the IC market make for an uncertain future for any supplier of
display circuitry unable or unwilling to continue the technological advancement necessary to
meet the ch~nging demands of the display market.

HIGH· VOLTAGEi~HIGH-CURRENTI)ARLINGTON TRANSISTOR ARRAYS

SERIES ULN-2000A
HIGH-VOLTAGE, HIGH-CURRENT
DARLINGTON TRANSISTOR ARRAYS

THESE high-voltage, high-current Darlington arrays are comprised of seven silicon NPN Darlington pairs on a common monolithic substrate. All
units feature open collector outputs and integral
diodes for inductive load transient suppression. Peak
inrush currents to 600 mA (Series ULN-2000A and
ULN-2020A) or 7S0 mA (Series ULN-2010A) are
permissable, making them ideal for driving tungsten
filament lamp loads.
The Series ULN-200IA devices are general purpose
arrays which may be used with standard bipolar digital
logic using external current limiting, or with most
PMOS or CMOS directly. All are pinned with outputs opposite inputs to facilitate ease of circuit board
layout and are priced to compete directly with discrete
transistor alternatives.

pole" logic output. Typical voltage and current
levels for both the Series ULN-2003A and ULN200SA are shown in the graphs.
The Series ULN-2000A is the original high-voltage,
high-current Darlington array. The output transistors
are capable of sinking SOO mA and will sustain at
least SO V in the OFF state. Outputs may be paralleled for higher load current capability. The Series
ULN-2010A devices are similar except that they will
sink 600 mA. The Series ULN-2020A will sustain
9S V in the OFF state.

The Series ULN-2002A was specifically designed for
use with 14 to 2S V PMOS devices. Each input has a
Zener diode and resistor in series to limit the input
current to a safe value in that application. The Zener
diode also means excellent noise immunity for these
devices.
The Series ULN-2003A has a 2.7 k rl series base resistor to each Darlington pair, and thus allows operation directly with TTL or CMOS operating at a supply voltage of S V. These devices will handle numerous interface needs - particularly those beyond the
capabilities of standard logic buffers.

All Series ULN-2000A Darlington arrays are furnished in a 16-pin dual in-line plastic package.

Device Type Number Designation
VCE(MAX) =
IC(MAX) =

The Series ULN-2004A features a 10.5 k rl series
input resistor to permit their operation directly from
CMOS or PMOS outputs utilizing supply voltages of
6 to IS V. The required input current is below that of
the Series ULN-2003A while the required input voltage is less than that required by the Series ULN-2002A.

The Series ULN-200SA is especially designed for

SERIES UDN-2580A
8-CHANNEL SOURCE DRIVERS
FEATURES
• TTL, CMOS, PMOS, NMOS Compatible
• High Output Current Ratings

II

• Internal Transient Suppression
• Efficient Input/Output Pin Structure

THIS versatile family of integrated circuits, originally designed to
link NMOS logic with high-current inductive loads, will work with
many combinations of logic- and load-voltage levels, meeting interface requirements beyond the capabilities of standard logic buffers.
Series UDN-2580Asource drivers can drive incandescent, LED, or
vacuum fluorescent displays. Internal transient-suppression diodes
permit the drivers to be used with inductive loads.
Type UDN-2580A is a high-current source driver used to switch the
ground ends of loads that are directly connected to a negative supply.
Typical loads are telephone relays, PIN diodes, and LEDs.

OWG.NU. A-l1.359

UDN·2580A
UDN·2585A

Type UDN-2585A is a driver designed for applications requiring
low output saturation voltages. Typical loads are low-voltage LEDs
and incandescent displays. The eight non-Darlington outputs will
simultaneously sustain continuous load currents of - 120 rnA at ambient temperatures to + 70°C.
Type UDN-2588A, a high-current source driver similar to Type
UDN-2580A, has separate logic and driver supply lines. Its eight
drivers can serve as an interface between positive logic (TTL, CMOS,
PMOS) or negative logic (NMOS) and either negative or split-load
supplies.
Types UDN-2580A and UDN-2588A are rated for operation with
output voltages of up to 50 V. Selected devices, carrying the suffix
"-I" on the Sprague part number, have maximum ratings of 80 V.
Types UDN-2580A and UDN-2585A are furnished in 18-pin dual
in-line plastic packages; Type UDN-2588A is supplied in a 20-pin
dual in-line plastic package. All input connections are on one side of
the packages, output pins on the other, to simplify printed wiring
board layout.

For simplification, these devices are characterized on the following
pages with specific voltages for inputs, logic supply (Vs), load supply
(VEE)' and collector supply (Vee)' Typical use of the UDN-2580A and
UDN-2580A-l is with negative referenced logic. The more common application of the UDN-2585A, UDN-2588A, and UDN-2588A-I is with
positive referenced logic supplies. In application, the devices are capable of
operation over a wide range of logic and supply voltage levels:

HIGH-VOL TAGE;HIGH-CURRENT DARlINGTON· TRANSISTOR ARRAYS

SERIES ULN-2800A
HIGH-VOLTAGE, HIGH-CURRENT
DARLINGTON TRANSISTOR ARRAYS
IDEALLY SUITED for interfacing between lowlevel digital logic circuitry and high-power peripheral loads, the Series ULN-2800A high-voltage, highcurrent Darlington transistor arrays feature peak load
current ratings of 600 rnA (Series ULN-2800A and
ULN-2820A) or 750 rnA (Series ULN-2810A) for
each of the eight drivers in each device. Under the
proper conditions, high-power loads of up to 4 A at
50V (200 W at 23% duty cycle) or 3.2 A at 95 V (304 W
at 33% duty cycle) can be controlled. Typical loads
include relays, solenoids, stepping motors, multiplexed
LED and incandescent displays, and heaters. All devices feature open collector outputs and integral diodes for inductive load transient suppression.
D"G.NO. A-IO.322

The Series ULN-280IA devices are general purpose
arrays which may be used with standard bipolar digital
logic using external current limiting, or with most
PMOS or CMOS directly. All are pinned with outputs opposite inputs to facilitate ease of circuit board
layout and are priced to compete directly with discrete
transistor alternatives.

output is not a concern. These devices will sink a
minimum of 350 rnA when driven from a "totem
pole" logic output.
The Series ULN-2800A is the standard highvoltage, high-current Darlington array. The output
transistors are capable of sinking 500mA and will
withstand at least 50 V in the OFF state. Outputs may
be paralleled for higher load current capability. The
Series ULN-281OA devices are similar except that
they will sink 600mA. The Series ULN-2820A will
withstand 95 V in the OFF state.

The Series ULN-2802A was specifically designed for
use with 14 to 25 V PMOS devices. Each input has a
Zener diode and resistor in series to limit the input
current to a safe value in that application. The Zener
diode also means excellent noise immunity for these
devices.

All Series ULN-2800A Darlington arrays are furnished in an I8-pin dual in-line plastic package.

The Series ULN-2803A has a 2.7 kn series base resistor to each Darlington pair, and thus allows operation directly with TTL or CMOS operating at a supply voltage of 5 V. These devices will handle numerous interface needs - particularly those beyond the
capabilities of standard logic buffers.

The Series ULN-2804A features a 10.5 kn series

CMOS or PMOS outputs utilizing supply voltages of
6 to 15 V. The required input current is below that of
the Series ULN-2803A while the required input voltage is less than that required by the Series ULN-2802A.
The Series ULN-2805A is especially designed for

UDN-2841B, UDN.2842B,*
UDN·2845B, UDN·2846B·

Types UDN7284lB and UDN-2842B are intended
for sinking applications in which the load is connected
to ground and the IC output switches the negative supply. The input PNP transistor in each driver serves
as a level translator and the first NPN stage provides
sufficient current gain to drive the output Darlingtons.
Type UDN-2843B and UDN-2844B quad drivers
are primarily intended for switching the ground end
of loads which utilize negative supply voltages. The
NPN Darlington outputs are operated as emitter followers in this application.

UDN.2843B: UDN.2844B·

Type UDN-2845B and UDN-2846B devices are
sink-and-source combinations in a single dual in-line
package. Either device can be used for bipolar switching applications in which both ends of the load are
floating.

UDN2844B, and UDN-2846B feature a higher input
impedance and are intended for use with 8 V to
15 V PMOS and CMOS logic.

The UDN-284IB, UDN-2843B, and UDN-2845B
I.C.s are intended for use with 5 V TTL, Schottky
TTL, DTL, and CMOS logic. The UDN-2842B,

Al! types reduce component count, lower system
cost, reduce circuit and board complexity,and provide
solutions for many interface requirements.

Use with Full-Wave or Half-Wave Sources

FOR USE with microprocessors that
I NTENDED
are strobing power loads, these monolithic SCR
arrays will interface to high-current loads including
lamps, relays, and solenoids. The use of multiple
SCRs in a single package reduces component count,
insertion costs, assembly time, and circuit space,
while improving overall circuit reliability.
Each array contains multiple SCRs with integral
current limiting and gate-to-cathode resistors. In all
cases, the maximum allowable SCR current rating at
+ 2SoC is 800 rnA continuous or 2 amperes nonrecurring peak. Outputs may be paralleled for higher
load current capability within the limits ofthe allowable package power dissipation rating.
The UTN-2886B array contains four individual
SCRs and two pairs of paralleled SCRs (pins 8-9 and
1-16). Each SCR is capable of continuous and simultaneous operation at 2S0 rnA (SOO rnA at pins 9 and
16) at an ambient temperature of +SO°C. The 16lead package with heat-sink contact tabs allows
maximum power dissipation with standard cooling
methods. Further increases in power dissipation can
be obtained by attaching an external heat sink to the
webbed leads.
The UTN-2888A SCR array contains eight isolateddevices, each capable of continuous and simul~
taneous operation at 200 rnA at an ambient tempera c
ture of +SOOC.
These· SCR arrays operate from an unfiltered
half-wave (SO or 60 Hz) or full-wave (100 or
120 Hz) rectified source. They are not intended for
use with a-c sources, and will not sustain commercial
a-c line voltages (liS VAC).

APPLICATION NOTES
not be pulled low (turned ON) for at least 5 IJS
(max. source tpo) after the source driver input is
pulled low (turned OFF). The sink driver should
be allowed to go high (turned OFF) at least 750
ns (max. sink tpo) before the source driver goes
high (turned ON).

1. The source and sink outputs should not
be ON simultaneously (V2 High, Vs Low). High
"crossover" currents could degrade or destroy
the device.
2. Do not assume from the Logic Truth
Table that both inputs can be connected (V4
High or Low only). The sink driver is considerably faster than the source driver. An input
shift from high-to-Iow levels could produce a
condition where both drivers are ON, and that
condition could occur for as long as 5 IJS.

HIGH·VOLTAGE, HIGH·CURRENT SOURCE DRIVERS
COMPRISED of five common collector NPN
Darlington output stages, the associated common base PNP input stages, and a common "enable" stage, the UDN-2956A and UDN-2957 A
high-voltage, high-current source drivers are used to
switch the ground end of loads which are directly
connected toanegative supply. Typical loads include telephone relays, PIN diodes, and LEDs. Both
devices will sustain output OFF voltages of -80 V
and will source currents to -500 rnA per driver.
Under normal operating conditions, these units will
sustain load currents of - 200 rnA on each of the five
drivers simultaneously at ambient temperatures up to
+70°C.
The UDN-2956A driver is intended for use with
MOS (PMOS or CMOS) logic input levels operating
with supply voltages from 6 V to 16 V. The UDN- TO-116 (MO-OOIAA). Hermetically-sealed ver2957 A driver has appropriate input current limiting sions of these devices (with reduced package power

Description

These "mini-DIP" dual 2-input peripheral and power drivers are bi-polar
mo.nolithic integrated circuits incorporating AND, NAND, OR, or NOR
logic gates, and high-current switching transistors on the same chip_ The
two· output transistors are capable of simultaneously sinking 300 mA continuously at ambient temperatures of up to +70°C. In the OFF state, these
drivers wjll sustain at least 80 V.
Applications

The Series UDN-3600M dual drivers are ideally suited for interface between
low-level or high-level logic and high-current/high-voltage loads. Typical
applications include driving peripheral loads such as incandescent lamps,
light-emitting dIOdes, memories, heaters, and other non-inductive loads of
up to 600 mA (both drivers in parallel).
With appropriate external diode transient suppression, the Series UDN3600M drivers can also be used with inductive loads such as relays, solenoids,
and stepping motors.

Sustaining Voltage of 80 V

Description

These 16-lead quad 2-input peripheral and power drivers l,!re bi-polar monolithic integrated circuits in:corporating AND, NAND, OR, and NOR logic
gates, high-current switching transistors, and transient suppression diodes on
the same chip. The four output transistors are capable of simultaneously
sinking 300 mA continuously at ambient temperatures of up to +70°C. In
the OFF state, these drivers will sustain at least 80 V.
Applications

The Series UDN-5700A quad drivers are ideally suited for interface between
10w;level or high-level logic and high-currentfhigh-voltage loads. Typical
applications include driving peripheral loads such as incandescent lamps,
light-emitting diodes, memories, and heaters.
The integral transient suppression diodes allow their use with inductive
loads such as relays, solenoids, or stepping motors without the need for discrete diodes. For non-inductive loads, the diode common bus can be used
as a convenient lamp test.

Description

These "mini-DIP" dual peripheral and power drivers are bi-polar monolithic
integrated circuits incorporating AND, NAND, OR, or NOR logic gates,
high-current switching transistors, and transient suppression diodes on the
same chip. The two output transistors are capable of simultaneously sinking
300 rnA continuously at ambient temperatures of up to +70°C. In the OFF
state, these drivers will sustain at least 80 V.
Applications

The Series UDN-5700M dual drivers are ideally suited for interface between
low-level or high-level logic and high-currentfhigh-voltage loads. Typical
applications include driving peripheral loads such as incandescent lamps,
light-emitting diodes, memories, and heaters with a load current of up to
600 rnA.
The integral transient suppression diodes allow the use of these drivers
with inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, or stepping motors without
the need for discrete diodes. When not required for transient suppression,
the diode common bus can be used to perform the "lamp test" function.

Under worst case conditions with a low logic 1 voltage (2.4 V), and a high input resistor value (3.51 k D),
the available load current is reduced to only 145 rnA.
Compounding this problem'would be the effect that a
high drive current requirement would have on the
logic output voltage since that is normally specified at
only 400 p.A. If the gate output is connected to additional logic elements,. a minimum logic 1 voltage of
2.0 V must be maintained and at that level the worst
case Darlington load current would be reduced, to only
31mA!

Occasionally, applications featuring minimum available input drive current and a high output load current
have shown the Type ULN-2003A and ULN-2004A
Darlipgton arrays to be in"dequate for the partiGular
requirement under worst case conditions .. This usually results from the restricted drive current available
from a TTL or CMOS gate operating from a nominal

Conclusion
Since .the Series'ULN-2000A high-voltage, highcurrent .Darlington transistor arrays are quite conservatively designed, the basic product is fully capable of
being ordered to higher voltages and/or higher currents
than the standard specifications. Presently, parts are
available to withstand up to 95 volts on the output.
Parts with this higher voltage rating would create a
potential for switching,loads far in excj:ss of q5 watts!
Aside from the higher power handling Capability, 'the
higher voltage rating is required for driving plasma or
gas-discharge displays .

THE UDN-2949Z is a monolithic half-bridge

level shifting systems, and a voltage regulator
for single-supply operation. The unit is

The chopper drive mode is characterized by a

The UDN-2949Z may be used in pairs (fullbridge) for doc stepper motor or brushless doc

ULN·370U andULN·3702Z HIGH·CURRENT DRIVERS
THESEHIOH-CURRENT drivers are suitable
for driving doc motors rated to ±2.5 A and 18
V witllminimum external components. Internal
voltage, current, and temperature shut-down
circuitry protect these devices under the most
severe operating conditions. The ULN-3702Z
doesnpt include the high-voltage shutdown,
allowing operation with supply voltages up to 28

amplifier "onfiguration 200 V transistors)
and both digit and segment drivers incorporate all
pull-up, pull-dowlJ, current limiting, off-bias
reference, etc. which wen; formerly required in
discrete and/or hybrid systems .. With the combination of. the digit and segment drivers (each
capable of withstanding. 120 V), the split power supply approach affords PN diode IC technology
suitable for driving a display usually requiring a ISO
V minimum ionization voltage (equivalent to ± 90 V
in the split system).

GAS DISCHARGE DISPLAY IC.
.,";;

Early in 1972,Sprague ~uccessfully produced its
first. high-voltage IC designed for gas discharge
displays· - a five channel, 130 V unit for· cathode
(segment) interface. Subsequently, other circuits"
both' cathode and anode drivers, were produced;
most of which were used in. calculator applications
with the ,Burroughs Panaplex@ II. In Figure 3 is
shown a display interface system utilizing the UHP481 and U,l:JP-491 di~play drivers, associated thick~
film networks, and discretes. This was a step forward, but still required external discrete components.
Through a collaborative effort begun late in 1973
between Sprague Electric and Burroughs Corp. a
newer, more efficient interface scheme evolved.
Featured in "Electronic' Displays '75", this series of
monOlithic IC interface devices for the high"voltage
gas discharge panels has been one of the trailblazers
in the world of display interface ICs. Intended for
use in multiplexed display systems, these ICs present
one of the easiest and least expensive solutions to a

,

The use of the Series UDN-61ooI7100A gas
discharge display drivers shows the need for ocly two
monolithic ICs for displays of up to eight digits and
eight segments as shown in Figure 4. Systems
requiring digit or segment counts greater than eight
employ additional driver ICs, and with the exception
of theTypeUDN-7180A segment driver, the segment
ICs. all have outputs with internal current~limiting
resistors for the display segments. The UDN-7180A
device, for reasons of package power dissipation
and/or dissimilar segment currents (certain 14 or 16
segment alphanumeric panels) can also be used, but
must have external, discrete current-limiting
resistors.

When switching inductive loads, the output transistor should be protected by a suitable clamping
technique. The simplest approach is to use diode
clamps to the supply; in Figure 2A the UDN2H.+l /42B uses a discrete diode on each output. Also
in Figure 3A and Figure 4, a straight diode clamp is
shown for the UDN-2843/44B (Figure 3A) and for
the UDN-2845/46B (Figure 4).

ITsistor value might be also substituted; a IA load
operating with a l5Q resistor will produce similar
results to a 15 V Zener diode. In F~gure 5, the combination Zener/damp diode is shown for a 'bridge'
configuration such as Figure 4.
The allowable output current and duty cycle as a
function of the number of drivers activated is shown
in Figure 6A. This graph is for a + 70°C ambient
and will insure that the device junction temperature
will not exceed a + 150°C level. Figure 6A is for the
'B' package without any heat sinking; package rating
is 45°C/W or a derating of 22.2 mW/oC for this
copper alloy plastic DIP.

For improved turn-off', it may be possible to usc a
combination diode/Zener diode scheme; in Figures
2B and 3B the Zener diode will allow the flybaek
voltage to rise above the supply voltage, thm
speeding lip the turn-oil of the load. An appropriate

Supplied in a fully hermetic 16-lead, side-brazed
ceramic DIP, the PIN diode drivers are subjected to
the screening procedures specified in MIL-STD-883

3.1.6. Also made available is a 168 hour burn-in per

No doubt other applications will arise in the
future, but these figures arc representative or power
interfa.:e applications which may be simplified
through the use of these Sprague power integrated
circuits to replace discrete components.
Additionally, cost and space reductions should be
achieved with the Series UDN-2840B quad 1.5 A

This 8-Channcl IC design originates from a need to
prmide all interface from NMOS to high current inductive loads. The device functions like a PNP; but
an NPN Darlington has been added to provide
suitable current gain. By switching the input low the
output is turned ON and t.Jlc.load current is sourced
from the compound PNP INPN INPN output.
Maximum ratings are shown in Table 3.

for improved thermal capacity and device electrical
performance.

In Figure 12, the basic circuit diagram is shown; a
typical NMOS interface mightinvolve ~5 Y, GND,
and solenoid,loadsof 0-20010 -30 Y. The UDN2580A affords an interface to these higher voltages
and offers high current outputs of - 500 rnA (mas).

With 0NMOS logic operating from negative supplies, the interface to high current inductive loads
(solenoids, relays, etc.) is depicted in Figure 14.
1\10st NMOS includes depletion load and is capable
of pulling the input of the UDN-2580A sufficiently
high to turn off the device. For those few instances
where either open drain NMOS is to be used, or the
depletion load is excessively high, external pull-up
resistors may be employed.

As is usually done with devices of this type, the
pinout is the in-opposite-out version shown in Figure
13. The unit is packaged in an 18-lead plastic DIP
utilizing Sprague copper alloy lead frame technology

Although the UDN-2580A is chiefly intended for
high voltage inductive loads, it will help solve hil\hcurrent, low-voltage designs as well. In Figure 15,
the UDN-2580A is used as a source driver for

multiplexed common-cathode LEDs; the UDN2580A is a high current segment driver, while the

It is also possible to employ the UDN-2580A as a

for discretes in many MOS-based systems. Shown in

Conclusion

Three new, high performance Sprague interface integrated circuits have recently been developed. They
tend to simplify certain system designs while offering
size and cost reductions. The UDN-2841 Band UDN2842B will greatly simplify an emerging printer
technology; the UDS-5790/91 H will replace hybrids
and discrctes for PIN phase shifter arrays; and the
U DN-2580A will further augment the usc of NMOS
LSI in a variety of systems. All of this is the result of
custoiller andsa"les inquiries along with an understanding of the industry needs for improved power
interface ICs. Custom interface designs arc also
becoming a greater factor, and Sprague Electric will
also help to lead the way in solving these problems.

For a-c loads, it is possible to use the UDN-2580A
source driver for providing gate current for pown
thyristors. Shown in Figure 17B is an interface to a
high current Triac; this is a scheme ming a pulse

Values shown take into account static d·c losses (VSATIOUT and Vcclcc) as well as
switching losses induced by inductive flyback through the clampdiodes with
VK = 12 volts. Maximum package power dissipation isassumed to be 1.33
watts at +70°C. Higher package power dissipation may be obtained at lower
operating temperatures.
Use of external discrete flyback diodes will eliminate power dissipation
resulting from switching losses and will allow the full 500 mA output

UCN-4202A STEPPER MOTOR TRANSLATOR/DRIVER

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Power-On Re.et

Output Enable

An internal RS flip-flop sets the Output A
"ON" with the initial application of power.
This state occurs approximately 30 /AS after the
logic supply voltage reaches 4 volts with supply
rise times of up to 10 ms/V. Once reset, the circuit functions according to the logic input conditions.

Outputs A through D are inhibited (all outputs "OFF") when pin I(Output Enable) is at
high level. This condition creates a potential for
wire-ORing of device outputs, or other potential
control functions such as chopping or bi-Ievel
drive.

Step Enable

Tran.lent Suppression

Pin 9 (Step Enable) must be held high to
enable the step pulses for advancing the motor
to reach the translator logic clock circuits. Pulling this pin low inhibits the translator logic.

All five power outputs are diode protected
against inductive transients. However, Zener
diode or resistor "flyback" voltage techniques
are not allowed.

Step Input

Pin 10 (Step Input) is normally high. The logic
will advance one position on the positive transition after the input has been pulled low for at
least 1 /AS. The Step Input current specification is
compatible with NMOS and CMOS.

Full-Step /Double-Step

Full-Step operation is the most commonly
used drive technique. The UCN-4202A is
capable of unipolar drive without external active
devices, either in a full-step mode (pin 11
Monostable RC tied high), or in a double-step
mode (pin 11 connected to RC timing). The
double-step mode provides improved torque
characteristics, while the specified angular increment is doubled.

Direction Control

The direction of output rotation is determined
by the logic level at pin 12. If the input is held
high the rotation is A-D-C-B; if pulled low the
rotation is A-B-C-D. This input is also NMOS
and CMOS compatible.

COMB INA nON of bipolar and MOS technology gives Sprague's Series UCN -4820A an
interface flexibility beyond the reach of standard
logic buffers and power driver arrays.
The three devices in this series each have eight
bipolar current-sink Darlington drivers, a CMOS
. data latch for each of the eight open-collector outprits, an eight-bit CMOS shift register and CMOS
control circuitry. Except for maximum driver voltage
ratings, Types UCN-4821A, UCN-4822Aand
UCN-4823A are identical.
The bipolar outputs can drive multiplexed LED
displays, incandescent lamps, thermal print heads,
and (with appropriate clamping techniques) relays,
solenoids and other high-power inductive loads.
The CMOS shift register and latches, which
operate over a 5- to 15-volt supply range, minimize
loading and are compatible with CMOS, PMOS
and NMOS logic. Use of the drivers with TTL and
DTL may require a pull-up resistor to ensure an
input logic high. By using the serial data ()utput, the
drivers can be cascaded for interface applications
•requiring additional drive lines.
These devices are also available in il1dustrialgrade ceramic packages (Series UCQ-4820R) and in
military" side-brazed, hermetically sealed "packages
(Series UCS-4820H).

SPRAGUE BiMOS MUSCLE FOR THE MICROPROCESSOR

Sprague Electric offers solutions to users' interface problems through a fusion of bipolar and CMOS
technologies in BiMOS to create innovative interface
devices.
The company's ability to shape technology to
meet the specific needs of users is based on a commitment to provide versatile and practical interface
products for systems design.
Sprague BiMOS devices are available with:
- Output breakdown voltage ratings of up to
100 V;
- Output current ratings as high as 600 mA;
- A logic voltage-supply range of 5 V to 15 V
(±5%);
- Logic switching speeds of up to 1 MHz at 5 V
and up to 2 MHz at 12 V;
- And up to 10 channels per dual in-line package.
Among advantages of BiMOS technology are
microprocessor compatibility, low-power logic, a
wide logic-supply range, component-count reduction, bipolar output capability, CMOS noise immunity, and space-saving integration.

UCN-4401A and UCN-4801A

These four- and eight-bit BiMOS latch Idrivers are
the first Sprague IC's to incorporate CMOS logic
(data latches) and bipolar drivers (NPN Darlingtonpair outputs). Functionally, the eight-bit device is the
equivalent of an octal latch and an octal NPN Darlington array.
Figure 1 depicts the use of the eight-bit latch I
driver as an interface between a microprocessor and
incandescent lamps. The device can also link a microprocessor with LEDs, high-power discrete
semiconductors, relays or small stepper motors. Applications with inductive loads require connection of
the internal transient-suppression diodes to the
load's voltage supply, or use of discrete diodes.
Inductive load applications should be limited to output voltages of +35 V.
Figure 2 shows use of Type UCN-4401A as an
interface between a microprocessor and a stepper
motor. Input signals to the four-bit device, for both
unipolar wave drive and unipolar two-phase drive,
are shown in Figures 3 and 4.

APPLICATIONS

The following pages make up a sampler of applications for Sprague BiMOS interface devices. Performance specifications, truth tables and timing
charts for these integrated circuits appear on previous
pages. Additional applications are described in the
Sprague brochure WR-185, "Interface ICs for
Motor Drive Applications," and in Sprague engineering bulletins covering these BiMOS devices.

Type UCN-4401A can also be used to control
discrete PNP transistors providing a high-power
motor interface (Figure 5). Use of either singleended or split supplies is possible with this approach.
The four-bit device can be paired with a quad PNP
DIP to implement full-bridge drive for a stepper
motor (Figure 6).

Since blanking (20 f-LS minimum) is required between characters, and since the minimum ON time
for each digit or character is 100 f-LS, the maximum
number of characters in a display is 80 (8 kHz clock,
125 f-LS ON and blanking time per character).
The typical ON time for vacuum fluorescent
characters is 200 f-LS (40-character panel) to 500 f-LS
(20-character display). Failure to provide proper
blanking time can cause ghosting or flicker.

UCN-4810A

This integrated circuit functionally replaces a
lO-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register, a 1O-bit
data latch, and 10 high-voltage buffers (including
output pull-down resistors). It is designed for use
with vacuum fluorescent displays, but has been put
to many other uses, including control of thermal
print heads.
Connecting a data-out line from one device to a
data-in pin of a second device minimizes the number
of input/output lines required for a system. A 20character 5 x 7 vacuum fluorescent dot matrix display, for instance, requires only six Type UCN4810s (two as grid drivers and four as dot drivers).
An example of cascaded data control is given in
Figure 7. The arrangement cascades two devices for
grid selection and four as dot drivers.

A faster method of loading matrix data, shown in
Figure 8, requires more I /0 lines. This technique
loads shift registers during a blanking period
(greater than 20 f-Ls). Each dot driver has a separate
data-input line, but uses common clock, strobe and
blanking lines. A second clock is used with the grid
drivers.
A typical data-input timing chart for this configuration is shown in Figure 9. With a 20-character
vacuum fluorescent display having a 2 kHz scan
frequency, 10 bits of data are loaded during the first
blanking period; succeeding lO-bit data blocks are
loaded during blanking periods at 400 f-LS intervals.
A more unusual application of Type UCN -481OA
is shown in Figure 10: The device is used with a
thermal printer. In production, the drivers (in chip
form) were built into a hybrid assembly.

Data sent to the four dot drivers can be loaded in
less than 80 f-LS using this configuration. The shiftrate limit ofthe dot drivers is 500 kHz at VDD = 5 V.
The two units that function as grid drivers are
loaded with a single "1" during each scan cycle.
The minimum recommended scan frequency is
100 Hz per character (a clock frequency of2 kHz for
a 20-character display).

UCN-4805A is used as a seven-segment decoder /
driver. A pair of Type UCN-481OAs is used for
grid-select.

UCN-4815

Type UCN-4815A provides an eight-bit parallelin, parallel-out interface for vacuum fluorescent displays. A typical application appears in Figure 11. A
pair of Type UCN-481OAs are used for grid control.
The two Type UCN-4815As drive a 16-segment alphanumeric display.

SERIES UCN-4820A

The drivers in this series were designed for use in
printers. Each integrated circuit has an eight-bit
serial-input shift register, an eight-bit data latch, and
eight NPN Darlington-pair outputs. The data entry
rate for this series is 500 kHz (minimum) at VDO =

UCN-480SA and UCN-4806A

Each of these devices has eight high-voltage
source outputs, latched inputs, and both the hexadecimal decoding and speed capabilities for
microprocessor-based designs.
Type UCN-4805A is used to decode and drive
seven-segment displays. Its eighth source output is
used to generate a colon or decimal point.
Type UCN-4806A is used with nine-segment
(centered "1 ") displays. It has an I /0 input that can
be used to check for errors by interrogating input data
latches.
A typical application with a 20-character vacuum
fluorescent display is shown in Figure 12. Type

5 V.

A typical application appears in Figure 13; although the drawing depicts use with an electrosensitive printer, the device can also control inductive
loads such as print hammers and solenoids, or thermal print heads.
Use of Types UCN-4823A and UCN-481OA-l is
combined in the planar gas-discharge display application shown in Figure 14. Type UCN-481OA-l
signal inputs are level-shifted (floated to the VBB
supply level). The application requires external segment limiting and pull-up resistors and use of Zener
diodes.

The devices are specified with a minimum output breakdown of 50 volts,
and VCF,SUS) minimum of35 volts measured at 100 rnA, or a minimum output
breakdown of 80 volts, VCE(SUS) minimum of 50 volts, and an output current
specification of 1.25 A (saturated).
Types ULS-2064H, ULS-2065H, ULS-2068H and ULS-2069H are
designed for use with TTL, DTL, Schottky TTL, and 5 V CMOS logic.
Types ULS-2066H, ULS-2067H, ULS-2070H and ULS-2071H ,are
intended for use with 6 V t6 15 V CMOS and PMOS input circuits: .
All eight of these devices include' integral transient suppression diodes
for use with inductive loads:
Owg. No, A-ll.026

Types ULS-2068H and ULS-2069H incorporate a pre-driver stage requiring a5 V supplyrail. Types ULS-2070H andULS-2071H include an
added gain stage requiring a 12 V (nominal) supply rail. The input drive
requiiemi:mts for these devices are reduced, while the output can switch
currents up to 1.5 A.
'

ULS-2068H
through ULS-2071 H

Types ULSc2074H through ULS-2077H are intended for use in emitterfollower or similar isolated Darlington applications where common-emitter
versions cannot be used. These circuits are identical with the ULS-2064H
through ULS-2067Htypes except for the isolated Darlington pin-out and
the omission of the suppression diodes.
All twelve Quad Darlington Switches are supplied in 16-pin hermetic
dual-in-line packages. They meet the processing and environmental requirementsofMIL-STD"883 Methods 5004 and 5005, and the dimensional
requirements of MIL-M-3851O.

Wide Operating Temperature Ranges

DESIGNED for interfacing between low-level
logic circuitry and high-power loads, the Series ULS-2800H and ULQ-2800R arrays consist of
eight silicon NPN Darlington power drivers on a
common monolithic substrate. The choice of five
input characteristics, two output voltage ratings (50
or 95 V), two output current ratings (500 or
600 rnA), and two package styles (suffix 'H' or 'R ')
allow the circuit designer to select the optimum device for any specific application.
The side-brazed, hermetically sealed Series
ULS-2800H devices are rated for operation over the
temperature range of - 55°C to + 125°C, recommending them for military and aerospace applications. The cer-DIP, industrial grade hermetic Series
ULQ-2800R devices are rated for use over the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, permitting their use in commercial and industrial applications where severe environmental conditions may be
encountered.
The appropriate specific part number for use in
standard logic applications can be determined from
the Device Type Number Designation chart. Note
that the high-voltage devices (BVCE "'95 V) are
available in the Series ULS-2800H only. All units
feature open collector outputs and integral diodes for
inductive load transient suppression.
All Series ULS-2800H Darlington power drivers
are furnished in an 18-pin side-brazed dual in-line

HIGH-VOlTAGE, HtGH-CURRENT SOURCE DRIVERS

UDQ.2956R and UDQ·2957R
HIGH·YOLTAGE, HIGH·CURRENT SOURCE DRIYERS

EACH OF THESE SOURCE-DRIVER
arrays has five NPN Darlington-pair outputs
and five PNP common-base inputs controlled by
a single ENABLE stage.
Types UDQ-2956R and UDQ-2957R are
typically used to switch the ground ends of loads
such as telephone relays, PIN diodes, LEDs and
similar devices directly connected to negative
supplies. Internal transient-suppression diodes
allow use of the drivers with inductive loads.
Each output stage of both integrated circuits
will withstand output OFF voltages of - 80 V
and load currents as high as - 500 rnA. Under
normal operating conditions, the five drivers will
simultaneously handle load currents of - 170
rnA at ambient temperatures of up to + 70°C.
Type UDQ-2956R is designed for use with
PMOS or CMOS logic input levels operating
with supply voltages of 6 V to 16 V. Type UDQ2957R has input current-limiting resistors that
permit its operation with TTL, Schottky TTL,
DTL and 5 V CMOS.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
at 25°C Free-Air Temperature
(reference pin 7)

Both devices are supplied in industrial-grade,
hermetically sealed 14-pin dual in-line ceramic
packages rated for use over the temperature
range of - 40°C to + 85°C. Input connections
are on one side of the packages, output connections on the other, to simplify applications
designs.

Description

These "mini-DIP" dual 2-input peripheral and power drivers are
bi-polar monolithic integrated circuits incorporating AND, NAND, OR,
or NOR logic gates, and high-current switching transistors on the same
chip. The two output transistors are capable of simultaneously sinking
250 rnA continuously at an ambient temperature of +75°C. In the OFF
state, these drivers will sustain at least .80 V.

UDS·3612H

Applications

The Series UDS-3600H dual drivers are ideally suited for interface
between low-level or high-level logic and high-currentlhigh-voltage
loads. Typical applications inclildedriving peripheral loads such as
incandescent lamps, light-emitting diodes, memories, and heaters.
With appropriate external diode transient suppression, the Series
UDS-3600H drivers can also be used with inductive loads such as relays,
solenoids, and stepping motors.

Type UDS-5711H
Dual AND Driver

Four Logic Types
DTLITIL/PMOS/CMOS Compatible Inputs
Low Input Current
Sustaining Voltage of 80 V
Transient-Protected Outputs
High-Reliability Screening to MIL-STD-883, Class B

Description
These dual peripheral and power drivers are bipolar monolithic integrated
circuits incorporating AND, NAND, OR, or NOR logic gates, highcurrent switching transistors, and transient suppression diodes on the same
chip. The two output transistors are capable of simultaneously sinking
200 rnA continuously at ambient temperatures of up to +S5°C. In the OFF
state, these drivers will sustain at least SO V. Units are supplied in S-pin
hermetically sealed mini-DIP packages.

Type UDS-5712H
Dual NAND Driver

Applications

The Series UDS-571OH dual drivers are ideally suited for interface between
low-level or high-level logic and high-current/high-voltage loads. Typical
applications include driving peripheral loads sucJ:t as incandescent lamps,
light-emitting diodes, memories, and heaters with a load current ~f up to a
500 rnA peak value.
The integral transient suppression diodes allow the use of these drivers
with inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, or stepping motors without
the need for discrete diodes. When not required for transient suppression,
the diode common bus can be used to perform the "lamp test" function.

L.=J

these monolithic, planar integrated circuits offer an
easy solution to many PIN diode driving applications.
The UDS-5790H and UDS-579lH quad power
drivers are designed to replace discrete or hybrid PIN
diode drivers. They provide significant reductions in
cost and space with improved reliability. The UDS5790H driver uses a grounded-base input stage for
non-inverting operation while the UDS-579IH driver
uses a common-emitter input stage for inverting operation. Both devices are capable of sustaining OFF
voltages of 120V and will switch currents to 500 rnA.

OWG.MO, A. 10. ltn

UDS-5790H

The input buffer circuitry has been designed to
utilize external discrete resistors. The one-resistorper-driver effectively reduces total package power dissipation and junction temperature while allowing user
selection of output base drive current, power supply
voltages, and output current.
All devices are rated for operation over an extended
temperature range of· _55°C to +125°C. They are
customarily supplied in 16-pin hermetic dual in-line
packages. All units are subjected to the 100% production screen tests specified inMIL-STD-883, Method
5004, Class B, paragraphs 3.1.1 through 3.1.6. On
special order, 160 hours of burn-in to Method 1015,
Condition A, can also be performed.

THE SPRAGUE ELECTRIC
'DOUBLE-DEUCE' BURN-IN PROGRAM
FOR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
Electric Company's "Double-Deuce"
screening program removes marginal
. devices before shipment. Improved
customer satisfaction with performance
and reliability is an immeasurable but certain bonus of the program.

THE EXPENSE OF DEVICE FAILURE is
more than the .time and money spent
locating and replacing. a defective in-.
tegrated circuit. The total cost can include
the price·of assembly. rework, system
downtime, service calls, war.ranty.claims
and lost customer goodwill.

"Double-Deuce" screening is done during the last stage of production. Because
Sprague does the screening, only qualified
devices are received by the user.

Costs of $25 for each in-house failure
and $250 for each field failure are· not uncommon. At a relatively low cost, Sprague

QUALITY AND RELIABILITY
Quality and reliability are terms that are
often used interchangeably. Quality implies reliability, but a product's merit
should always be defined by both.

lifetime probability curve, is often used to
project time-to-failure for integrated circuits. Because the "Double-Deuce" program eliminates early failures, Sprague integrated circuits delivered after the screening process have a higher degree of
reliability.

Quality is the extent to which a device
conforms to specifications when it is shipped to the user. Quality is verified by
testing. Inspections at every step of production of Sprague integrated circuits ensure the devices meet demanding standards for workmanship and materials.
Inspections of integrated circuits under
the "Double-Deuce" program have been
made even more stringent to secure a
higher level of quality.

PROBABILITY OF FAILURE
AS A FUNCTION OF TIME

Reliability is the measure of an integrated circuit's ability to meet specifications over time. Reliability is a product of
design and process control. Acceleratedlife tests provide the manufacturer and
user with an indication of the reliability of a
device. Normally, a small number of integrated circuits exhibit signs of early
failure or infant mortality. This statistic,

OUTLINE OF THE 'DOUBLE.DEUCE' PROCESS
The "Double-Deuce" burn-in program
uses high stress levels to accelerate the
failure mechanisms associated with infant
mortality. These normally occur within the
first few hours of user application.
Although typically less than 1 per cent of a
lot will be rejected, user confidence in lot
integrity is greatly improved. The screening
program is designed to eliminate the
following failure modes:

o

The majority of early integrated circuit
failures (infant mortality or ionic contamination) can be attributed to manufacturing defects, package or assembly
defects, or final test escapes. The."DoubleDeuce" program is designed to eliminate
weaker parts, reduce or eliminate user
shipment inspection, assembly rework,
system checkout, and warranty returns.

TEST PROCEDURES
Potential failures are seal or bond failure,
cracked packages. or chips.

The "Double-Deuce" burn-in program includes five test .procedures:
1. High·Temperature Bake
This is aproce.ss designed to stabilize
electrical drift and to accelerate chemical
degradation such as surface contamination. It is a four-hour bake at + 175°C
without electrical stress (similar to MILSTD-883, Method 1008).

The process has 10 cycles with 10
minutes of dwell at - 65°C and 10 minutes
of dwell at + 150°C (air to air), with a maximum transfer time of five minutes (MILSTD-883, Method 1010, Condition C). At
Sprague's option; this process may be
changed to thermal shock (liquid to liquid)
for 10 cycles,five minutes at O°C and five
minutes at + 100°C with a transfer time of
10 seconds (MIL-STD-883, Method 1011,
Condition A).

2. Temperature Cycling
This is a screening process designed to
mechanically stress the integrated circuit
by alternately heating and cooling it.

INDUSTRIAL, MILITARY, AEROSPACE DEVICES (Continued)

TEST PROCEDURES
3. Burn·ln
The burn·in, or accelerated·life test, is
performed to screen out marginal devices,
those with inherent defects, or defects
resulting from manufacturing deviations
that can cause time-dependent or stressdependent failures. Without this conditioning, marginal circuits that initially meet all
specifications could exhibit early lifetime
failures under normal operating conditions. The test is conducted for 96 hours at
a junction temperature of + 150°C under
electrical stress conditions (similar to MILSTD-883, Method 1015) such as:

Electrical Stress

Bipolar Interface
Linear Devices

Clocked

TJ = + 125°C for ionic contamination (E A
= 1.0eV)orfor192hoursatTJ = +125°C
for infant mortality defects (E A = 0.4 eV).
4. High·Temperature Test
Every device is subjected to complete
electrical tests at + 70°C for function and
doc parameters (similar to MIL-STD-883,
Methods 3001 through 3014 and 4001
through 4007, as appl icable). Relaxed
+ 25°C limits or published hightemperature limits, are used to remove
devices with circuit anomalies such as
beta mismatch, high leakage current, and
intermittent bonds, which may only affect
the circuit at higher temperatures.
5. Outgoing Quality Control Inspection
All "Double-Deuce" product is inspected
to an outgoing sampling plan which
guarantees that the product will meet an
acceptable quality level of 0.25%.

The burn-in conditions (96 hours at TJ
= + 150°C) are equivalent to 525 hours at

HOW TO ORDER

GENERAL DESIGN NOTES
1. Phase shift network is aligned by applying F-M signal through decoupling network to pin 4 (Y4 = 5 mYrms). Tune for maximum re-

covered audio at pin 1 or maximum I-F voltage at pin 11.
2. A doc path of less than 100 0 must be provided between pins 2 and
12. No other biasing provisions are required.
3. A doc path of less than 300 0 must be provided between pins 4 and 6.
No other biasing provisions are required.
4. The maximum a-c load current can be increased by adding an external resistor between pin 1 and ground. The minimum value for this
resistor is 800 0, giving a maximum load current of 4 mArml•
5. All decoupling capacitors should be of the ceramic type with minimum
inductance at the operating frequency.
.
6. Decoupling capacitor leads at pins 2, 5, and 6 should be as short as
possible.
7. Keep appropriate distance between the input (pin 4 and the input
network) and the phase shift network (pins 9, 10, and 12, and the
phase shift inductor).
8. If a high impedance power supply is used (voltage dropping resistor),
decouple pin 13 for the lowest audio frequency.
.
9. The linear detection mode (low signal level at pin 12),.as shown, is
preferred for communications and other commercial applications, due
to the preservation of the tuned circuit bandwidth and better rejection of Gaussian noise. The combination of coupling capacitor (C2)
and .I-F amplifier output (pin 9) was chosen for optimum quieting.
The bandwidth of the phase shift network (peak separation) is primarily defined by the Damping resistor (R). A higher value resistor
will decrease bandwidth, increase the recovered audio output, reduce
the capture ratio, and increase harmonic distortion.
10. The switching detection mode (high signal level at pin 12) features a
greater linear range, increased insensitivity to amplitude variations,
and is recommended for AFC applications or where side responses
must be avoided. Limiting in the quadrature detector will produce
slightly more audio output, but will increase the noise bandwidth and
degrade quieting.

FEATURING improved detector temperature stability, the Type ULN-2136A F-M, I-F amplifier/
limiter and quadrature detector is used wherever AFC
stability and off-station noise are important considerations. These devices consist of a three-stage I-F amplifier/limiter, a quadrature F-M detector, an emitterfollower audio output stage, and a regulated power
supply capable of furnishing up to 20 rnA to external
circuitry. Except for the voltage regulator, the Type
ULN-2136A is similar to the original Type ULN2111A amplifier/limiter and detector.
The Type ULN-2136A is housed in a standard 14pin dual in-line plastic 'A' package.

9. The linear detection mode (low signal level at pin 12), as shown, is
preferred for communications and other commercial applications, due
to the preservation of the tuned circuit bandwidth and better rejec·

Low Harmonic Distortion
Wide Operating Voltage Range
Low Power Drain
D·C A·M/F·M Switching
30 fAV Limiting Threshold
Excellent A·M Rejection
Interchangeable With HA12402,
T1\7613 , TDAI083, U417B

Type ULN-2204A will work with a wide range
of supply voltages, and is suitable for use in a-c
powered table radios and in battery-powered (6
or 9 V) portable radios.
This system will operate at supply voltages as
low as 2 V at reduced volume without significant
increase in distortion. Brown-outs or weak batteries need no longer be a major concern.
Type ULN-2204A is housed in a 16-pin dual
in-line plastic package with a copper lead frame
that eliminates many decoupling problems and
allows maximum power dissipation.

pROVIDING ALL radio functions except VHF
tuning, Type ULN-2204A A-M/F-M radio
system excels in low-cost applications requiring a
minimal parts count and high performance.
In the A-M mode of operation, the device is a
complete single-conversion superheterodyne
broadcast or shortwave receiver with AGC and
peak envelope detection. In the F-M mode, Type
ULN-2204A operates as a high-gain I-F
amplifier/limiter and phase-shift detector. A
simple doc switch is used to change mode of
operation.
A single external capacitor at pin 16 provides
the A-M AGC time constant, the F-M AFC time
constant, and R-F decoupling. A single resistor
at the same pin will adjust the A-M gain for optimal system performance.
The audio power amplifier will work into any
speaker load of 8Q or greater. Class B operation
of the audio power amplifier yields high efficiency at rated output with very low quiescent power
drain. The amplifier exhibits little crossover
distortion. Its output impedance is significantly
less than one ohm.

ULN-2204A VARIATIONS
FOR OPTIMAL SYSTEM
'PERFORMANCE
.
.
In addition, some system designs derive the
F-M tuner supply, tuner bias, or AFCvoitage
from pip 16 output of Type ULN-2204A. For
example, if the tuner design requires 2.4 V at 2.0
mA (an equivalent R16 of 1200Q) , th~ graph
below indicates a Type ULN-2204A-IX is required. A -2X or -3X device could also ,be used
by paraiIeling the equivalent l200Q tuner load
with a fixed resistance for an 830Q load or a
520Q load, respectively. For AFC applications,
note that as frequency increases, V16 'voltage
decreases. The amount of change is a factor of
load impedance, detector coil characteristics,
and part grouping.
In A-M operation, stability is seldom a problem. However, large-signal overload can be op; ..' timized (to typically 30 mV) by matching the
particular part group with an appropriate load
resistor at pin 8. The A-M grouping of a device
.,
is identified by the sec'ond digit of the partnumber suffix (the "I" in ULN-2204A-3l).

The receiver system's performance can be
kept within tighter performance limits by match- .
ing bias groupings and appropriate external
resistors (Rg and RI6). With proper matching of
parts and lots, consistent. device p~rformance
can be obtained, Bias groups for Type ULN"
2204A are shown in the table below. There are
three selections for each mode of operation and
nine possible combinations.
Sprague. Electric Company recommends that
customers do not specify particular selections
except in unusual circumstances. All parts
manufactured with Sprague part numbers· are
branded with appropriate part-number suffixes.
Any shipment to a customer will consist of parts
from a single selection (single suffix).
The first digit of the suffix (the "3" in ULN2204A-31) refers to F-M performance. ,It In-.
dicates F-M gain and pin 16 output voltage as
functions of the pin 16 load resistance, (See
graph on next page.)
.

For ~x 1, Rs should be 00.
For-X2, Rg should be 47 kQ.
Fw -X3, Rg should be 33 kQ.

F-M circuit stability is inversely related to gain
or sensitivity and is affected by sQUI'ce and load
impedances, decoupling, ". and printed wiring
board layout. After an optimal F-M I-F gain is
determined for a particular circuit design, that
gain can be attained by matching the partnumber suffix and the pin, 16 10114,

Additional loading may raise the overload
point slightly, but AGC and sensitivity will be
compromised. For any fixed value of Rg, -X3
parts will exhibit slightly higherA-M gain, while
-Xl pa~ts will hayeslightly lower A-M~ain.

An A-M/F-M radio using the ULN-2204A
receiver system, designed for a usable F-M sensitivity of about 4 IAV and an A-M sensitivity of
350 IAV1m, appears on the next page.
The two-stage F-M tuner is operated at about
4 V. Reducing the pin 16 voltage to 1.8 V (by
changing R 16) reduces interstation noise and the
F-M I-F gain. An inductor at pin 12 (L6)
prevents the wide-band audio amplifier from

The tuning indicator below may be added to
the radio circuit to provide an LED indication
when the received signal strength exceeds 7 IAV in
the F-M mode or 700 IAV 1m in the A-M mode.
The tuning indicator cir-cuit reduces the I-F gain
by about 2 dB. The sensitivity may be adjusted
by changing the value of Cl or C2.

RADIO APPLICATIONS

ULN·2243A
MIXER/I·F FOR F·M RADIO APPLICATIONS
FEATURES
• Doubly-Balanced linear Mixer
• Very-High I-F Rejection
• 32 mmho (miliisiemens) Conversion Gain at

lao MHz

• 330 Q I-F Input/Output Impedance
• 46 dB I-F Gain at 10.7 MHz
• AGC Detector for MOSFET R-F Stage
• low External Component Count
• 16-Pin Dual In-line Plastic Package

pROVIDING AN IMPORTANT basic building
block for use in F-M radio applications, the ULN2243A mixer/I-F minimizes spurious responses from
strong off-channel signals while providing an ex~
cellent noise figure, maximum desired signal gain and
very-high I-F rejection.

gain set at typically 46 dB. Input and output impedances are 330Q to allow the use or" inexpensive
ceramic filter coupling.
Both bias and AGe voltages, for use with a dualgate MOSFET R-F stage, are provided by the wideband AGe detector. An inhibit connection (pin 14)
allows for maximum wide-band R-F gain up to the
signal level at which the AGe action of the following
narrow-band I-F amplifier/limiter and detector
(ULN-3840A or ULN-3889A) starts operating. For
strong on-channel signal levels, the wide-band R-F
gain is determined by the strongest in-band signal.

The linear fully-balanced mixer is an analog
multiplier which will outperform discrete mixers. The
low local oscillator and received frequency feedthrough greatly reduces. the outband rejection requirements.
I-F gain is furnished by a i-stage amplifier withthe

APPLICATIQN INFORMATION
lite ULN-2243A mixer/I·F performs a variety of
fun);:tilms especially suitaile fOf. automobile radios
and other r,eceivers required to Itl!.n4le an extremely
wide range of input signal levels. It has been designed
to use some of the inherent advantages of an integratec!' circUit to improve -F-M fro-nt end designs
instead of simply attempting to repiace discrete
devices \vith integrated oneS. This allows the tuner
designer to select anR-F amplifier arid oscillator circuit best~suited to the particufarapplication.

amplifier/detector integrated circuit. The resistive
matching pad between ceramic filter elements
prevents interactions which can cause undersirable
group delay variations.
The AGC, detector between pins 4,13, and 14 has
some unique properties which can be used in different ways. If the R-F amplifier is a dual-gate
MOSFET (Figure 5), only the minimum in external
discrete components is required.
The AGC detector input (pin 4) is connected
through a small coupling capacitor to the mixer output. Internally is an R-F peak detector (Q20) and doc
amplifier (Q21 through Q24). If the AGe inhibit
voltage (pin 14) is greater than approximately 1 volt,
the AGC output voltage (pin 13) will change from
'typically 7.7 V with no applied signal to 0.5 V if an
R-F signal of more than 150 mV is present at the input, This allows the tuner designer several design
possibilities:
'

The double-balanced mixer (Qr through Q7, Figure
4) is internally 'biased so that all inputs can be
capacitively coupled: this mixer possesses several advantages oyer discrete devices.: '
1. High inherent I-F rejection, '
2. Oood I~FI2 rejeCtion;
3.Less 'oscillator drive reqlj.iredthan with FET
mixers,
4. Low oscillator (eed through,
5. Less-oscillator modulation with large signals, and,
6. Balanced inputs eliminate ground loops which can
cause stray coupling paths in discrete mixers.

1. Connecting the AGC inhibit to the meter drive
output of the limiter/detector (pin 13, ULN3840A or ULN-3889A), the R-F stage will be
AGC'd when tuned to a strong signal or when
tuned to a weak signal with a strong adjacent
channel signal, or
2. Pin 14 can be connected to a fixed bias voltage
(typically + 5 V). The R-F stage would then be
AGC'd by any signal falling within the mixer coil
bandpass, or
3. Combinations. of fixed bias and signal-dependent
levels (AFC, deviation mute, Qrdelayed AGC) will
then allow almost an unlimited number of AGC
possibilities.
The AGC characteristics of the ULN-2243A
mixer/I-F can be used with many other types of R-F
amplifier. By adding a discrete transistor amplifier at
pin 13, the AGC signal can be inverted and/or
amplified to drive a bipolar R-F stage into forward
AGC or to drive a PIN diode attenuator. A
simplified graphical illustration of the most common
AGC characteristic is shown in Figure 6.

Note that the oscillator input can be to either pin 7
or pin 8, the R-F input to either pin 9 or pin 10, to
suit the circuit board layout.
The I-F transformer used with the ULN-2243A has
been made to utilize both output-s of the mixer and
was wound ona bobbin type'coil form (Toko Type
IOEZ) to maintain close couplings between windings.
This eliminates the high cost of. a bifilar-wound
transformer. A conventional tuner with two R-F
tuned circuits will typically have an I-F/2 rejection of
at least 100 dB and a low noise figure. A single-ended
output from either pin 5 or pin 6 could have been
used (with degradation in rejection and noise figure)
with the remaining output connected directly to Vee.
The limiting amplifier consists of transistors Qs
through QIS and has about 46 dB of gain at 10.7
MHz. The input and output impedances are 3302 for
easy ceramic filter connection. The differential input
again avoids the low-impedance ground loops
associated with discrete common emitter I-F input
stages. This makes the construction of a stable
amplifier much easier. Since the I-F amplifier an
independent element, various combinations of fHters
before and after the amplifier are possible.

A typical application of the ULN-2243A mixer/I-F
in an F-M tuner was shown in Figure 5. Note that an
output from the high-frequency oscillator has been
,provided with no increase in cost. This is one advan- tage to having the oscillator external to the integrated
circuit. Also, by not including the R-F amplifier
within the device, a wide variety of R-F amplifiers
can be used depending on the wishes of the designer
or the particular constraints of the application.

is

The relatively high gain of the ULN-2243A I·F
amplifier allows the circuit designer to use surfat:e
wave or cascaded' ceramic filters between it and the

ULX-3804A
A-M/F-M SIGNAL PROCESSOR
FEATURES
• Good Sensitivity
• Low Harmonic Distortion
• Wide Operating Voltage Range
• Excellent A-M Rejection
• Low Power Drain
• D-C A-MiF-M Switching
.30 /LV Limiting Threshold
• 16-Pin Dual In-Line Plastic Package

DESIGNED for use in battery-powered portable
,
radios or line-driven table radios, Type ULX3804A works well in low-cost applications requiring
high performance with few external parts. An entire
A-M IF-M stereo receiver can be built with a Type
ULX-3804A, a Type ULN-3809A stereo decoder,
and two Type ULN -2283B audio amplifiers, for
operation over a supply range of 4.5 to 12 V.
The signal processor includes the A-M oscillator
and mixer and the A-M IF-M I-F amplifier and detector from the popular radio system, Sprague Type
ULN-2204A. Radio designs using Type ULN2204A can be revised for greater power output or for
stereo operation (without reworking the printed wiring board layout) by replacement of Type ULN2204A with Type ULX-3804A and addition of appropriate stereo decoders and audio power
amplifiers.

In the A-M mode of operation, Type ULX-3804A
provides all high-frequency circuitry, including
AGC and envelope peak detection, for a singleconversion superheterodyne broadcast or shortwave
receiver. In the F-M mode, the signal processor
operates as a high-gain amplifier Ilimiter and phaseshift detector. A d-c switch is used to change modes.
A single external capacitor at pin 16 provides the
A-M AGC time constant, the F-M AFC time constant, and R-F decoupling.

Device Classification and Design Considerations

The A-M IF-M receiver system's operation can be kept within
tighter performance limits by matching bias groupings and
appropriate external resistors (R8 and R16). With proper matching of parts and lots, consistent device performance can be
obtained. The groupings, shown in the table below, are based
on A-M and F-M operation. There are three selections for each
mode and nine possible combinations:

PIN 16 OUTPUT VOLTAGE, V16
A-M
Operation
1.40 1.65 1.90 -

Complete Part Number Including Suffix
f-M Operation
2.20 - 2.65 V 2.55 - 3.05 V 2.95 - 3.40 V
1.75 V ULN-3804A-ll
ULN-3804A-21
ULN-3804A-31
2.00 V ULN-3804A-12 ULN-3804A-22
ULN-3804A-32
2.25 V ULN-3804A-13
ULN-3804A-23
ULN-3804A-33

Sprague recommends that customers not specify particular
selections except in unusual circumstances. All parts manufactur~d with the Sprague part number will be marked with the
complete number, including the appropriate suffix ..In addition,
anyone shipment to a customer will consist of a single selection
(single suffix).
The first digit of the. suffix (such as the "3" in "-31")
applies to F-M performance. It indicates the F-M gain and pin
16 output voltage as functions of the pin 16 load resistance, as
. shown in the graph on the next page.
F-M circuit stability is inversely related to gain or sensitivity
and is also affected by source and load impedances, decoupling,
. and printed wiring board layout. After an optimal F-M I-F gain
is determined for a particular circuit design, the gain can be
controlled with proper matching of the suffix and the pin 16
load.

6-60

ULX-3804A A-M/F-M SIGNAL PROCESSOR

Design Considerations (Continued)
In addition, certain system designs derive the F-M tuner
supply, tuner bias, or AFe voltage at pin 16 of Type ULN3804A. As an example, if the tuner design requires 2.4 V at
2.0 rnA (an equivalent Rl6 of 1200!1), Type ULN-3804A-IX
is required. A - 2X or - 3X device can also be used by paralleling the equivalent 1200n tuner load with a fixed resistor to
present an 830!1load or a 520!110ad.

For AFe applications, note that as the frequency is increased,
the V 16 voltage will decrease. The amount of change is a
function of load impedance, detector coil characteristics, and
part grouping.

Stability is seldom a problem with A-M operation. However,
large-signal overload can be held to typically 30 mV by matching the particular part group with an appropriate load resistor at
pin 8. The A-M grouping is identified by the second digit of the
part number suffix (such as the "2" in "-32 ").
For -X I, R8 should be an open circuit;
for -X2, R8 should be 47 kH;
for -X3, R8 should be 33 kn.
Additional loading may raise the overload point slightly, but
AGe and sensitivity will be compromised. For any fixed value
of R8. the -X3 parts will exhibit slightly higher A-M gain. the
-Xl parts slightly lower A-M gain.

IDEALL Y SUITED FOR TOP-NOTCH
A-MI F-M radios, Type ULX-3840A provides
sophisticated operating features highly desired
by the modern consumer at a price that allows it
to be used in budget receivers.
A combination of inter-station (signal-level)
muting and off-channel (tuning-error) muting is
useful in signal-seeking or scanning applications.
The circuit design eliminates annoying lowfrequency thump and noise tail when the system
is manually tuned through a strong signal.
Outputs are available for directly driving a
peak reading meter and a zero-tune meter. The
peak meter output also is useful in controlling
external system functions, such as blending
multiplexers, stereo decoders, noise blankers, or
in providing positive-going AGC for the tuner.
All standard F-M I-F functions and all A-M
functions are provided by this single monolithic
integrated circuit. The low-level audio output
stages have been designed to meet stringent
Dolby® noise requirements.

The A-M mixer is a balanced low-current
analog multiplier with very-low local oscillator
feedthrough, high I-F rejection, and freedom
from spurious responses. This mixer can be used
in the long-wave, medium-wave, and shortwave
bands.
A fully-balanced, four-stage differential I-F
amplifier gives maximum gain with freedom
from common mode signals. It is used in both
the A-M and F-M modes of operation with approximately 82 dB of gain in the F-M mode and
controlled AGC gain of 26 dB in the A-M mode.
The detector in the F-M mode is a fourquadrant analog mutliplier operating in the
high-level injection mode. Common mode
signals are rejected through the use of balanced
current-mirror outputs.
In the A-M mode of operation, the detector is
configured as a balanced peak detector for low
audio distortion. A-M gain control is achieved
with AVC applied to the I-F and delayed AVC
applied to the mixer.

Switching between modes can be accomplished with a simple single-pole d-c switch. The
common low-level audio output can be used to
drive an audio power amplifier .(Type ULN3703Z) or stereo decoder (Type ULN-381OA).

Internal voltage regulators and bias supplies
assure premium performance despite variations
in external supply voltage (8.5 to 16 V) or
temperature (- 20°C to + 85°C). Separate
ground leads minimize decoupling problems.

THIS low-power, narrow-band F-M I-F system
provides the second converter, second I-F,
demodulator and squelch circuitry for communications and scanning receivers.

a high gain stage with excellent common-mode
rejection.
Audio is recovered by a quadrature F-M
detector that requires only a single low-cost
tuned circuit.

Type ULN-3859A's double-balanced mixer
permits low-noise operation while eliminating
spurious responses, effectively rejecting tweet
and I-F feedthrough, and reducing local
oscillator radiation. The mixer's high input impedance matches popular 10.7 MHz crystal
filters while its output impedance matches most
455 kHz ceramic filters. Although designed for.
use with a 10.7 MHz first I-F and a 455 kHz
second I-F, the mixer operates at other R-F or
I-F input frequencies through 30 MHz.

Type ULN-3859A has both a low-impedance
emitter-follower audio output and an AFC output. Few external components are needed for
operation with noise-activated or tone squelch.
This communications I-F system meets the
stability requirements of many automotive applications, and also meets the low-power
demands of portable radio design. Internal
voltage regulators and bias supplies ensure stable
performance despite variations in external
supply voltage (4 to 9 V) or temperature (-20°C
to +85°C).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
1. In a typical application, with a 3.6 kQ crystal filter sourc:e,
Type ULN-3859A will give 23 dB conversion gain.
2. Because crystal filters are extremeiysensitive to reactive
loading, radio designers frequently have added a coil and/or
capacitor at pin 18 to cancel the input reactance component. This
practice is not required with Type ULN-3859A, since its input is
designed to match typical 10.7 MHz crystal filters. However, if an
external reactive component is used,it is important to adjust it for
optimal passband shape and not simply to peak it for maximum
sensitivity.
3. Pin 11 provides AFC. If AFC is not required, pin 11 should be
grounded, or tied to pin 9 to double the available recovered audio.

and tuning for maximum recovered audio at pin
6.

5. If a high-impedance power supply is used (voltage dropping resistor), decouple pin 11 for the
lowest audio frequency.

2. A low-resistance path must be provided between
pins 9 and 10. No other biasing provisions are
required.
3. A low-resistance path must be provided between
pins 1 and 3. No other biasing provisions are
required.

6. The level of recovered audio increases with
higher values of loaded Q and higher values of
resistance between pins 6 and 10. It decreases
with lower values of loaded Q and lower values of
resistance between pins 6 and 10.
7. Mute bandwidth decreases with higher values of
loaded Q and higher values of resistance between
pins 7 and 10. It increases with lower values of
loaded Q and lower values of resistance between
pins 7 and 10.

4. Keep appropriate distance between the input (pin
1 and the input network) and the phase shift
network (pins 8, 9, and 10, and the phase shift
inductor).

ULN·2204A A·M/F·M RECEIVER SYSTEM
- TYPICAL APPLICATIONS AND OPERATION
of peak-to-peak voltage swings approaching the
available supply. To meet these performance objectives a new power amplifier design was required
having no more than one VBE of swing restriction.

Introduction

Through the relatively short history of bipolar
monolithic circuits, several revolutionary new circuits have been developed for a-m/f-m receiver
design. A. Bilotti pioneered the original monolithic
f-m-quadrature detector/I-F gainblock in the form
of the Sprague ULN-2111A.

As shown in Figure I, the output stage is comprised of 2 NPN transistors (Q42 and Q49) plus a
phase inverter (Q54). Quiescent operating current is
set up by the current source (I).

Subsequent devices have included gain-control
stages, output drivers, and voltage regulators.
During this same period a-m integrated circuitry
showed far less inspiration. Numerous a-m circuits
were developed which in essence attempted to combine the active elements of a discrete bipolar a-m
receiver in a monolithic circuit. To no surprise, the
resulting chips were at best capable of performance
no better than the parent discrete design, and with
the uneconomical displacement of three discrete
transistors with one integrated circuit. In addition to
the a-m-only circuits and f-m-only circuits, a-m/f-m
circuits were also attempted using the same design
approaches used for the a-m-only circuit, that of
combining an existing discrete receiver circuitry in a
monolthic device. The results were much like the
a-m only efforts, a bewildering collection of
economically unattractive circuits of modest performance.

DWG. "0.1.-10.628

Figure I

To achieve useful cost and performance objectives,
the ULN-2204A was designed with careful attention
to the cost and performance objectives of the modern
portable and table model broadcast receiver. Concern for low external component count, low power
consumption, wide supply voltage range, and versatility remained foremost as design objectives.

Assuming Voq = VCCI2 then the collector
current of Q54 = I, ignoring base currents, and if
Q54 is matched to Q49 as is possible in a monolithic
circuit, then the collector current of Q49 equals the
collector current of Q54. The circuit in Figure 1
achieves an excellent voltage swing capability of VCC
- VBE - 2VCE(SAT)' This totally NPN configuration also has good freedom from the highfrequency problems that often occur with quasicomplementary composite NPN-PNP configurations.

Power Amplifier

To achieve the desired performance objectives of
high power output and efficiency from a 2 to 12 V
supply requires that the power amplifier be capable

6-----86

RADIO INTEGRATED CIRCUITS (Continued)

Although the circuit in Figure I has been incorporated in production monolithic circuits in essentially the form shown, in practice it has unacceptable design restrictions. Since I is also the base drive
current for Q42, the ratio of available base drive
current I to idling current is proportional to the ratio
of the emitter areas of Q49 to Q54. For practical
values of IQ54/IQ49, i.e. one, the circuit has a
serious implementation problem; it requires three
output transistors (Q42, Q49, and Q54).

Vee

To reduce the size of Q54, an additional transistor
(Q48) is added to the circuit as shown in Figure 2.
Transistor Q48 divides I by its beta + I allowing Q54
to be reduced in area by a similar value. In the practical realization of the ULN-2204A, Q54 is chosen as
115 the emitter area of Q49 with a typical beta for
Q480f6.

capacitor. Overall negative feedback, set by the ratio
of R33 to R32, is applied to the inverting input Q45
through an NPN emitter follower (Q46) which also
provides d-c level shifting.

Figure 3 illustrates other refinements in the practical realization of the output circuit. The drive and
idling current I is derived from a VCC dependent
source allowing maximum drive under maximum
supply conditions while affording reduced drive and
associated current conservation under minimum
supply conditions. In addition, the Q48 divider circuit is refined to reduce PNP beta dependence.
Finally with the addition of an input emitter follower
(Q53) and a local negative feedback loop (R36), the
output is completed as it appears in the ULN-2204A.

NEXT STAGE

DWG. NO. A-IO,627A

Figure 4

The VCCI2 output tracking is achieved by summing the current flow through R33 and R32, with the
current through R41 "reflected off of ground".
Thus VCC/2 tracking is maintained by the voltage
drop across 2 resistors. This allows the current from
R41 to be bypassed at Pin 10, thereby combining the
ripple bypass capacitor with the audio feedback
capacitor.

The input stage of the power amplifier (Figure 4) is
comprised of a PNP differential pair (Q44 and Q45)
preceded by a PNP emitter follower (Q43) which
allows d-c referencing of the source signal to ground.
This eliminates the need for an input coupling

Figure 5 illustrates the complete power amplifier as
realized in the ULN-2204A, including the external
components. The remarkably-low external component count, (only two capacitors including the
output coupling) reflects concern for simplicity in
implementation, yet the device achieves excellent performance. Typical output power can be as high as
850 mW from a 9 volt supply and useful output
power at supply voltages of as low as 2 volts, with
minimum of distortion as the curves in Figure 6
illustrate.

Receiver

For a-m the gain is lowered by reducing stage
current. This is accomplished by reducing the
current applied to the I-Famplifier by the current
source Q17. The fifth I-F stage (Q9 and QIO) is
operated at maximum gain and current to provide
full signal to the a-m and f-m detector.

The a-m signal is processed from the antenna to
the detector output via the traditional blocks of
mixer, I-F, and detector enclosed in a reverse A-G-C
loop. However, closer examination reveals certain
very important advantages that can be afforded only
by the monolithic design.
The a-m mixer is a fully-balanced mixer based on a
four-quadrant multiplier as shown in Figure 7. This
affords rejection of both the oscillator. and .input
signal as observed at the output. In addition, an
analog multiplier is (as the name implies) a true linear
device. Balanced operation of the mixer provides
typically 25 dB of I-F rejection at the input, with a
similar rejection of the associated noise passband.
Also, the linear operation of the circuit affords good
freedom from intermodulation product responses.

A:M/F-MDetector

The detector is also a combination circuit. It
recovers a-m audio by peak detection and f-m audio
by phase discrimination.
The a-m signal from the I-F output appears at Pin
15 across T2 as shown in Figure 9. The signal is applied to the base of Q18 and after phase inversion by
T2 is applied also to the base of Q19. Full wave
detection occurs at the emitter of QI8 and Q19,
utilizing the on-chip junction .capacity for integration. This requires only that the stage current be
chosen at a low value (typically I iJA) to produce the
desired integration.

I-F gain is provided for both a-m and f-m by a
common I-F amplifier (Figure 8) using "stacked"
selectivity. In f-m operation the gain of stages I, 2,
3, and 4 (QI thru Q8) is set at typically 76 dB
providing a typical limiting threshold of 40 !lV.

The f-m detection process relies on the
phase/ frequencY relationship of a tuned external circuit for demodulation. The device converts phase

respectively), and. evaluating the duty cycle of the
rc;:sulting waveform!ls shown in Figure 10. The combining action occurs at the emitters of QI8 and QI9
resulting in the waveform shown. Subsequent processing involves squaring up the signal in a limiter,
compris'eo of Q24 and Q27, resulting in the
constant-amplitude plus train which is also shown.
This pulse train is then applied to a PNP gain stage
which, owing to the PNP's low f1 of typically
I MHz, integrates the pulse train into an average d-c

voltage which appears at Pin 8, the detectQr audio
output. Figure II illustrates the complete a-m If-m
detector of the ULN-2204A, including the external
components.
To complete the circuit, the a-m stages also require A-G-C. This is implemehted in the ULN2204A by internally setting the I-F supply voltage
(Pin 16) equal to the voltage at the detector audio
output. As carrier appears, a corresponding reduction in the d-c voltage occurs at the audio output
terminal and at Pin 16, where an external bypass
capacitor removes audio from the A-G-C line and
sets the time constant.

Improved sensitivity and excellent overload
performance with the radio tuner illustrated in
Figure 9 may be obtained by adding the R.F
stage of Figure 10. A secondary winding has
been added to L53 to couple it to the mixer of
Type ULN-2241A. The emitter of the R-F stage
is biased up to 0.5 V when it is turned OFF to im-

prove the overload. This condition causes the
R-F stage to be turned OFF at a 10weiR-F level.
Large signals are not rectified in the R-F stage.

. broadcast receivers. In addition to providing stateof-the-art receiver performance, this "one-chip"
receiver also provides for meter drive, interstation
muting, delayed AGe (for control of external AM
and FM RF stages), and simple AM/FM switching.

Introduction

This paper describes a monolithic integrated circuit
which makes possible substantial simplification of
AM/FM receiver design, while at the same time improving system performance.
Prior attempts at monolithic implementation
started with the quadrature detector/IF gain block
which was first described by A.Bilotti in 1967.'
Other devices were developed for AM circuits which
in essence attempted to combine the active elements
of a descrete bipolar AM receiver. The resulting
monolithic devices were capable of performance no
better than the original discrete design, and with the
very uneconomical displacement of three discrete
transistors with One integrated circuit.

Circuit Description-AM Mixer

An analog multiplier is used for the AM mixer.
It substantially outperforms discrete mixers in the
areas of noise and spurious response rejection. As an
AM mixer this circuit provides both local oscillator
and received frequency rejection. The local oscillator
is suppressed by approximately 40 dB and the intermediate frequency feedthrough is down by 26 dB.
Spurious response suppression is important as a
receiver performance objective, and also the
receiver's ability to reject undesired noise passbands. The mixer's freedom from oscillator signal in

To achieve useful cost and performance objectives,
a new monolithic AM/FM signal processing system 2
was designed with careful attention to the total
system costs and performance objectives of modern

the IF also reduces the outbandrejection requirement
for the IF selectivity elements, simplifying the use of
low-cost ceramic filters. The mixer current is chosen
to provide 20 mmho of gain with an acceptable output overload capability.

Combined AM/FM IF

Stacking of the AM and FM selectivity components allows the use of a common IF amplifier.
The IF (Figure 5) is a fully-balanced amplifier
having each stage differentially coupled to the succeeding stage. Inaddition to providing a 6 dB per
stage increase in gain over single-ended coupling,
this ma,intains constant stage and emitter follower
currents to prevent signal current from appearing in
on-chip grounds or supplies. Attendant signals or
noise appearing on ground or supplies will be rejected as common mode by the balanced stages.
The differential coupling approach also balances
capacitive effects to minimize phase delay
modulation with various signal levels. To further
control AC effects and reduce device input
capacitance, the first IF stage is a cascode configuration to reduce Miller effect.

The AM Detector

The AM signal is peak detected, recovering audio
and a d-c voltage to control AGC. Low audio distortion of 1070 is achieved by maintaining a relatively
constant current and resistance load, presented by
the emitter-base junction of Q82 as shown in Figure
2. The recovered audio is taken off in a balanced
configuration and summed at a node to cancel stage
current.
AMAGC

AM gain control is achieved by reverse AGC of the
first IF by cutting off stage current to the first IF
stage. AGC to the mixer is by the same method, but
with a 14 dB delay to optimize gain distribution for
noise considerations, and allow a better match to the
input to the mixer. Gain reduction as a function of
signal level is shown in the graph of Figure 3.

In the FM configuration, the IF stages are
operated as limiters and provide 76 dB of gain with a
corner frequency of 36 MHz. Coupled with the
detector section, the combination achieves a 3 dB
limiting threshold of 15 /AV.

AM operation utilizes the same IF section as used for
FM with a gain reduction and redistribution. To accomplish this, stage current is reduced in the second,
third, and fourth IF stages. This puts 20 dB of gain
in the first, and only 6 dB total in the remaining three
stages, and also maintains a reasonably low input
impedance to the IF.

Recovered audio is processed through the same
current mirrors, summing resistor, and output pin as
was used for AM. AFC and meter information is
provided open collector for use with an external load.
This allows the AFC to be used with any reference
voltage between V + and ground, and also permits
adjustment of AFC gain by the choice of load
resistor value.

The FM Detector

FM Mute and AGe Detectors

The FM detector (Figure 6) is an analog multiplier
operating in the high-level injection mode. In this
mode, a multiplier provides high recovered audio
with low audio distortion. Like the IF, the detector is
also driven differentially. In addition, the inphase
and quadrature signals are passed through the same
number of stages. This assures good freedom from
a-c offset, i.e. detector d-c offset caused by unequal
phase delay in the two applied signals.

The mute and AGC provide d-c voltages for control of signal level related functions. The basic detector (Figure 7) is biased as a triple Darlington current
source, with a quiescent state value of 10 iiA. Detector operation is accomplished by applying an a-c
signal to C3 which forms a voltage doubler with the
emitter-base junctions of Q61 and Q62 plus the
smoothing Miller capacitors of convenient size for
integration.

Signal for the mute detector is taken out of the
quadrature coil to limit bandwidth and allow mute
detector operation at the approximate limiting
threshold of the device. The mute attenuation is obtained by cutting off the current mirrors to the
audio. This achieves greater than 60 dB of attenuation with a minimum disturbance in d-c levels.

All AM signal processing is performed within the
device. The gain AGe and noise performance of the
device in the AM mode is sufficient to achieve a
useable sensitivity of 150 JolV 1m While featuring an
overload capability of 2 V1m with a 15 cm ferrite
antenna.
Conclusion

The AGe detector is basically the same as the mute
detector, with the exception of the source of the a-c
signal. This detector responds with a 2 mV signal input. Both detectors are biased to a no-signal value of
4.7 volts, and approach zero with increasing signal
input as shown in Figure 8.

revolutionary impact in AM/FM radio receivers as
the design by A. Bilotti did for FM only, the new
device required' more than simple assembly of
discrete components into an integrated circuit. Despite the integrated circuit's limitations on pin count
and component values, the monolithic process with
ion implantation is capable of fabricating superior
circuit implementations such as fully-balanced
mixers, multi-rate AGe systems, linear AM detectors, etc. at costs comparable to inferior circuits constructed with discrete components.

Typical Application

Figure 9 illustrates a typical home entertainment
receiver application for this new AM/FM signal
processing system.
Sufficient FM IF gain is provided by the device to
eliminate the need for any additional external gain
besides that of the tuner. A 3 dB limiting sensitivity
of about 2 JolV is easily achieved.

DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH-QUALITY RECEIVERS
FOR A-M STEREO
As a guide, the following receiver parameters have
been chosen: (The modulation is 30% at I kHz unless otherwise noted.)

Introduction

Almost all current designs for A-M receivers or
tuners use a ferrite antenna and lor a tuned R-F stage
with one or two separate tuned R-F circuits. These
are basically just slight modifications of the old fivetube radio. Because of this, almost all literature
written on the subject of A-M receiver design was
written when large tube-type receivers were popular.
When a receiver must have an audio-frequency
response greater than about 4 kHz, this arrangement
is not satisfactory and a new approach is required.
This does not, however, necessitate the design of
new integrated circuits for the R-F and I-F portions
of high-quality A-M stereo tuners. Presently available integrated circuits can be used (with minor circuit variations) to produce A-M tuners with performance that compete with that of the receiver's F-M
section.

Audio Response: 20 Hz - 15 kHz

Unfortunately, items 2 and 7 are incompatible
with channel spacings of 10 kHz, so either a dualbandwidth I -F or poorer frequency response must be
accepted.

Design Parameters

I-F Filters

A-M stereo testing of many different types of A-M
receivers indicates that receivers performing well
with monophonic signals also perform well with
stereophonic signals. A good criterion appears to be
total harmonic distortion and audio frequency response. In addition to the usual requirements of good
sensitivity, selectivity, image rejection, and the ability to handle large signals, distortion, signal-to-noise
ratio, and audio fidelity are important parameters
when designing A-M receivers for stereo or mono.
Fortunately, if the I-F filter response can be kept
symmetrical, current A-M integrated circuits will
give very low distortion for a large range of signal
levels. In addition, most of them have also had their
gains apportioned properly so that under AGC conditions, signal-to-noise ratios are not degraded and
high ultimate S+ N IN ratios can be reached. This
eliminates some problems for the designer, but does
not solve all of the possible problems.

The audio distortion and receiver selectivity are
essentially determined by the I-F filter of a receiver.
(Some other factors degrading the audio frequency
response will be discussed under R-F circuits.) The
traditional approach of using LC networks in a good
quality receiver becomes very difficult because of Q
limitations.
As an example, consider a transitional filter with a
40 dB bandwidth of20 kHz and center frequency of
455 kHz.

RADIO INTEGRATED CtRCUITS (Continued)

The maximum available coil Q is only about 140,
so it is almost imperative that the I-F filter be a
ceramic filter designed specifically for that purpose.
Suitable communications ceramic filters are available, but at a cost 3 to 10 times greater than that of
standard I-F transformers; There is, however, a good
compromise available. Reasonably priced cerlimic
ladder filters with zeros in their transfer function, are
available with the following response (Figure 1):

frequency response. A few calculations will demonstrate the problem:
If the R-F circuit loaded Q is 60:

1400 kHz - 3 dB BW= 23 kHz, Audio =
12 kHz
At 600 kHz -3 dB BW = 10 kHz, Audio = 5 kHz
600 kHz Image rejection = 48 dB
If the Q of the ferrite antenna or R-F'tuned circuit
is reduced to improve the .audio response, the image
rejecijon suffers, In the case of the ferrite antenna,
the sensitivity also suffers:

E
g

v
DWG.NO. A·ll,510

Figure 1
The zeros can be selected to fall at ±1O kHz· for
narrow-band I-Fs, and at ±20 kHz for wide-band
I-Fs. The minimum littenuation beyond the zeros of
only 27 dB is too small, but this falls within a range
where supplemental inductive 'filters can .be used.
This requires buffers between the..coil and ceramic
filters, but, as We shall see later, som,e integrated
circuit designs. e!\sily accommodate' thIs arrangement.
'

It has been foundbyexperiment that a full 20 kHz
or even 15 kHz audio response is not necessarily
desirable in a high quality A-M tuner, and might
even be undesirable. So much background noise and
interference from other stations. is present even during local da~time listening that a .narrower
bandwidth is more acceptable. A good compromise
appears to JJe' abOut 20 kHz for 3 dB, bandwidth.
This is degraded by other fi~tering: in the set plus the
necessary 10 kHz notch filter in the audio output to
give an overall audio frequency response of ab out. 7
to 8 kHz. In the narrow bandwidth mode for nighttime listening, the ±1O kHz attenuation must be
greater than 40 dB, restricting the audio response to
about4 kHz. It should be noted that this is considerably better than'the 1.6 kHz to 3 kHz audio response
of current receivers.
R-F Circuits

This stillieaves the problem of how to d~al with

reduced, The most obvious solution is. to. use a
double-tuned R-F circuit. This caD be manipulated to
have constant bandwidth with different. center fre-.
quencies so almost any desired iesult (without severe
loss in image rejection) can be obtained.
Additionally, the wider R-F bandwidth reduces
tracking problems which are not usually serious for
A-M mono signals, but which will cause problems
with A-M stereo signals because of the group delay
variations they produce,

This leaves two possibilities for antenna' input
circuits:

The audio output terminal (pin 4) includes a
10 kHz notch filter and a 15 kHz low-pass filter to
reduce unwanted noise in wideband operation. Note
the simplicity of the double-tuned R -F filter. The two
coils are identical and a mutual coupling capacitor is
used to give greater coupling at low frequencies.

1. Couple the antenna directly to the double-tuned
circuit and suffer a 6 dB msertion loss. '
2. Use an untuned FET input and put the doubletuned circuit between the FET and the mixer.
,

.

, The sec?ndtun~t shown in Figure 3 uses a very
popular A-M-only hltegrated circuit (2). This IC,
while not having a balanced mixer, has a separate I-F
stage perfectly suited to driving the ceramic I-F filter. The R-F stage is slightly different here but retains the double-tuned interstage filter. The required
R-F gain is higher because of the lower overall gain
of the IC.

'

Option 2 also eliminates the need for an antenna
trimming capacitor. This can be a significant cost
savings in automobile receivers. In both cases however, ~e Q of the antenria circuit will be quite iow at
the low end of the A-M band" and tl)e receiver will
have somewhat poor I-F rejection. This can easily be
solved by using an integrated circuit with a doublebalanced mixer.

Instead of two double-tuned I-F filters, a 3-section
filter is used and transistors are. again used for
bandwidth switching. The lowpass and notch filters
are also retained in the audio output.

The first design'shown in Figure 2 uses a combina- '
tion A-M/F-M integrated circuit (I) with a balanced
mixer for A-M. AjunctionFET must be used for the
R-F stage to obtain a reasonable sensitivity
(MOSFETs are very noisy at these low frequencies),
but since it has a high feedback capacitance, a transistor is also used to form a .cascode stage. AGC ,is
derived from the IC and is used to reduce the current
of the R-F stage. Since the IChas enough gain, the
R-F stage gain can be kept low to reduce overloading. The ceramic filters iilthe IF stage are separated
by low-cost buffer transistor stages which also perform the bandwidth switching . Added to the ceramic
filters are double-tUned input' (pin 14) and output
coils (pin I )to suppress the spurious responses of the

It has been shown that high-quality A-M tuners
using existing monolithic integrated circuits can be
designed and thefr cost is reasortable. They are suitable for driving A-M stereo decoders and should
produce very good A-M mono or stereo results. In
the case of the first tuner, the 455 kHz signal to the
decoder can be taken from the last I~F collector, or
from a secondary winding on the detector coil. A
455 kHz signal of high-enough level is somewhat
harder to obtain from the second tuner . The easiest
approach appears to be to amplify the approxhnately
5 m V detector input signal. The internal detector
then serves to generate AGC signals.
The advent of A-M stereo may hopefully serve as a
catalyst for the re-development ofgooo A-M tuners
which died out when the "all-American" five-tube
table radio was first introduced.

ULN·2260A AGC CONTROL,
SYNC SEPARATOR and SCAN PROCESSOR

FEATURES
•
•
•
•
•

Excellent AGe Noise Immunity
High Output Sync Level
Balanced Phase Detector
Stable Master Oscillator
16-Pin Dual-In-Line Plastic Package

The sync separator uses an ex;ternal passive
network. The designer chooses the sampling
level and time constants. The 10 Vpp output is
short-circuit limited at approximately 25 rnA.

TELEVISION-CIRCUIT SIMPLIFICATION
and high performance are primary advantages
of designs using Type ULN-2260A. NTSC or
PAL television receivers, color or monochrome,
with countdown or conventional synchronization, can be flexibly and efficiently partitioned
through use of this device.

The phase detector of Type ULN-2260A compares the sync separator's output to the integrated horizontal flyback pulse. Its output is a
voltage proportional to the phasing error. Static
phase error attributable to detector imbalance is
minimized.

The AGC detector of Type ULN-2260A
employs a coincidence gate approach that
minimizes noise effects. The circuit maintains
constant AGC levels despite temporary losses of
synchronization and temporary horizontal
timing disturbances. The AGC-synchronization
loop has both the high gain and high slew rate
needed for fast channel-to-channel gain
equalization and reduction of airplane flutter.
Both forward and reverse delayed AGC currents
are developed.

The designer is able to define the free-running
frequency, control sensitivity and temperature
compensation of the integrated circuit's
oscillator. A wide range of frequencies can be
generated, accomodating any of several TV or
video display terminal deflection systems.

Flyback Generator
Single-Supply Operation

A S A SINGLE DEVICE containing a vertical os-

cillator, a flyback generator and a power
amplifier, this vertical deflection system can greatly
simplify design of black-and-white and small-screen
color television receivers.
The oscillator of Types ULN-2270B and ULN2270Q is directly synchronized by positive or negative sync pulses. A current feedback loop makes
yoke current independent of yoke resistance changes
caused by operating temperature variations. The
flyback generator develops the high voltage required
by the yoke for short flyback time and high efficiency.
Type ULN-2270B is supplied in a 16-pin dual
in-line plastic package with heat sink contact tabs. Its
copper alloy lead frame gives enhanced power dissipation ratings with standard cooling methods.
Greater package power dissipation is available with
attachment of an external heat sink to the webbed
center leads of the device. The lead configuration
makes possible easy attachment of a heat sink and

use of a standard integrated circuit socket or printed
wiring board layout.
Type ULN-2270Q ITDA1170 is supplied in a
16-pin quad in-line plastic package. It uses the
printed wiring board on which it is mounted as a heat
sink. Small heat sinks can also be attached to the
center tabs of the device. The device carries the
Sprague Electric Company part number (ULN2270Q) unless the Pro-Electron marking (TDAI170)
is requested.

OF CARRYING OUT all of the funcCAPABLE
tions of a TV sound channel, the ULN -2290
silicon monolithic integrated. circuit consists of a
six -stage 1-F amplifier !limiter, low -pass filter, differential peak detector, doc volume control, regulated
power supply, audio preamplifier and output stage.

Type ULN-2290B is furnished in an improved
16-lead plastic dual in-line package with heat-sink
contact tabs. The webbed lead configuration, originated by Sprague Electric, .allows an inexpensive
heat sink to be easily attached for increased power
dissipation capability and yet permits the use of a
standard IC socket or printed wiring board hole layout This device is identical to European Type
TDA3190.

The audio power amplifier will deliver 4 W of
low-distortion audio to a 16n load with a supply of
24 V. When used with a 12 V supply, such as is
found in many portable TV sets, these ICs will furnish 1.5 W to an Sn loud speaker.
This TV sound channel is available in either of two
package configurations. Type ULN-2290Q is
supplied in a quad in-line plastic package with a
copper lead frame. This device is designed to use the
printed wiring board on which it is mounted for heat
dissipation and is identical to European Type
TDA1190Z. It is marked with its Pro-Electron registration unless otherwise specified on production

D

Inform~tir;1D

1., Types ULN-2290B and ULN-2290d have high inputimpedances, allowing them to be used with a ceramic filter or tuned
circuit to provide the necessary input selectivity.
2. The electrical ch,aracteristics of these devices will remain
relatively constant oVer the I-F frequency range of 4.5,MHz to
6 MHz. They can therefore be used with all common television
standards.
3. The a-c gain of the audio amplifier is determined by the
resistor raHoat pin 9. The gain should be defined in relationlo the
frequency deviation at which the output stage of the audio
amplifier begins clipping.
'
4. The resistor between pins 9 and 11 can be replaced with
various combinations of resistance and capacitance to provide
bass boost or treble atten uation.
5. De-emphasis is determined by the capacitor connected at
pin 16 and,an intemall0k!lresistor.This pin can also,be used to
provide a treble-cut type of tone contrpl.
6. The high-frequency audio cutoff is determined by the capacitors connected at pin 10. To increase the audio bandwidth, reduce
the values of th,ese capacitors, keeping their ratio constant.

The slope, linearity, polarity and control range are
different in each system proposed. However, a consensus among designers is that a control offering
both a wide operating range and independence of
device loading is desirable. In addition, the shape of
the output voltage versus control setting curve should
be'S' shaped. Type ULN-2211 control circuit results in an approximately linear response over most
ofthe operating range, with a cubic response at low
levels.
The control circuit used to generate this characteristic is shown in Figure 7. An external potentiometer sets the input voltage (V c).
The control uses a PNP input stage (Q66 and Q67) to
guarantee an input impedance of greater than
500 kil. If the control impedance is significantly
less than the input impedance, the loading factor is
negligible. The base-emitter voltages of Q66 and Q67
are cancelled by Qn and DIS, causing the input voltage (V c) to appear across the resistor combination
R43 and R44 and establish a current in Q45 that is
defined as the control current:

The unique input .biasing (pat. u.s. 3,896,383)

ripple voltage appears at the amplifier input via divider R48 and Rso and divider R49 and Cc + ROUT'
where ROUT is the output impedance of the attenuator
at pin 2. The amplifier input therefore sees only a
greatly attenuated ripple component. The following
expressions define the ripple rejection.

Inserting the component values and simplifying, the
ripple rejection at 120 Hz becomes
SIT = 20 log 39.8 = 32 dB

circuit. The first stage of the regulator consists of
resistor R21 and diodes D14 and D21 to provide a stable
voltage for current source Q20. The emitter resistor
(R I9 ) is tapped to establish the thermal shutdown
reference. The current source is mirrored in Q18'
which drives diodes DIO through D13 to set the regulator output voltage. Transistor Q17 is the series-pass
output of the regulator. It is capable of driving all of
the internal bias loads and is available at pin 8 for
driving up to 10 rnA (at 15 V) into an external load.

The short-circuit current is typically 1 A at
+25°C, decreasing by approximately 3500ppmrC
due to the reduction of V BE and the increase ofR'7 and
R60 with temperature. At the maximum chip temperature (150°C), the short-circuit current will be about
560 rnA.
Thermal shutdown is programmed by the voltage
divider, R 18 and R 19 . The base-emitter bias of transistor Q21 is related to the shutdown temperature as
Ts = TA (2 _ VBES
V BEA

)

Characteristics and Applications

(33)

A typical application of Type ULN-2211 is shown
in Figure 12. The input selectivity network can be
any of several types. However, the total network
impedance (pin lO-pin 11) must be less than 500
ohms to guarantee stable operation. The bypass capacitor on pin 11 should be as close to the pin as
possible to assure good bypassing. It is also advisable to keep the input grounds (pin 9) separate from
the output grounds (tabs) to prevent ground-current
interaction at low input levels.
The detector characteristics can be varied by
changing the values of R, L, and C in the quadrature
tuning network. The output level and THD of the
detector will depend on the Q of the network. The
loaded Q «(>L) of the network can be found from
Q _.
Qc
L - 1 + W o L Qc

where:
Ts = chip shutdown temperature in oK;
TA = reference temperature (293 OK);
V BES = shutdown bias voltage;
VBEA = bias at reference temperature (600 mY).
If Ts is 423 oK (150°C), then VBES is equal to
334 mV. The circuit design actually requires a temperature of about 180°C to produce complete shutdown. This ensures a smooth, stable transition.
Internal Regulator Description

The internal voltage regulator in Type ULN-22 I 1
provides bias stabilization necessary for critical input, detector, and control functions. In addition, the
regulator provides stabilization of the output bias
currents and provides bias for the thermal shutdown

(36)

By substituting and solving for Qc = 50 (R = 20 kil,
f. = 4.5 MHz, and fd = 25 kHz), QL = 30 and THD
= 1%. By adding an external resistor to reduce QL to
20, the THD is reduced to about 0.4% and the detector output is reduced by about 35%.

The capacitor at pin 16 provides system deemphasis. The internal impedance at pin 16 is
10 kil. A 0.01 /-tF capacitor sets de-emphasis at
100 /-tS or 1.6 kHz. A high-cut (low-pass) tone control can be added at pin 16. Typical values would be
25 kil and 0.22 /-tF. Alternatively, the tone control
can be added between the attenuator output and the
audio input with some degradation in ripple rejection, as discussed previously.
A volume-control value between 10 kil and
100 kil is recommended. The control can be returned to Vee or returned to the regulated output on
pin 8. In the former case, some decoupling may be
necessary to prevent ripple feedthrough.
The output amplifier requires only the output load
capacitor and a 0.1 /-tF output bypass to suppress any
tendency for the composite output current-sinking
transistor to oscillate with inductive loads.
The input coupling capacitor (Cc) is selected in
accordance with previous discussions. A small capacitor, typically 0.01 /-tF, is used at pin 2 to remove
any residual high-frequency content.

The three curves in Figure 16 show the system's
residual output under conditions of30% A-M signal,
continuous unmodulated carrier, and no-input signal
as a function of the volume-control voltage. The
curves are very similar to that of the volume-control
characteristic shown in Figure 8, illustrating the uniform A-M rejection andsignai-to-noise performance
of the sound system as the control is varied over its
full range.

The supply voltage for Type ULN-2211 may
range from 12 to 27 V. However, in order to obtain a
nominal 2 W output with the recommended 24 V
supply, the supply impedance must be kept below
250 (19 V minimum full-load supply voltage).
The most important typical characteristics of the
sound system are summarized in Table 1.
Figure 13 shows the input-limiting threshold and
signal-to-noise performance for the entire system (IF
inputto audio output). As shown, the typicailimiting
threshold is at Yin = 150 ""V.

Figures 17 and 18 illustrate the output capabilities
of Type ULN-2211 over a wide variety of supply
voltage and load conditions. As shown, a power
output of up to 4 W can be obtained with a 27 V
supply while a more nominal 24 V supply will allow
up to 3.6 W at 10% total harmonic distortion. Care
should be taken to allow for supply-voltage sag when
calculating maximum output power. For example,
the typical 24 V supply, with an equivalent impedance of 250, will sag to 19.5 V at full audio power
output (approximately 2 W). Figure 19 shows device
dissipation and efficiency curves for the nominal
24 V supply.

Figure 14 shows the excellent A-M rejection
characteristics of the sound system over three decades of input signal variation. The performance for
the entire system is shown. The output level is set by
the volume control to produce 4 V across the 160
load (1 W) with an input voltage of 10 mV,m,'
Figure 15 shows the output volume-control
characteristic with 30% F-M modulation.

Package Design

Type ULN-2211 is furnished in a modified 16lead plastic dual in-line 'B' package shown in Figure
20. The tabs (pins 4, 5, 12, and 13) allow easy
attachment of various inexpensive heat sinks or can
be directly soldered into the printed wiring board for
low power applications.
The power dissipation of the package is ultimately
limited by the chip-to-tab thermal resistance (err) of
approximately 15°C/W, and the absolute maximum
chip temperature of +J50°C. The allowable power
dissipation can be determined from the following

In practice, an intermediate coridition usually

Conclusion

References

Type ULN-2211 sound system is designed to
provide all functions required for consumer television and FM radio applications. It combines high
performance with the lowest possible cost in both
manufacture and application. It is capable of operating over a broad range of supply and load conditions,
including repeated output short-circuits. The device
has a highly stable remote d-c volume control and a
superior front end performance. The output stage
provides more-than-adequate power output and high
ripple rejection, without the need for a separate
bypass capacitor and pin.

THE ULN·2260A
SIGNAL, SYNC, and SCAN PROCESSOR
Introduction

AGC

The monolithic integrated circuit provides high
performance by ·careful selection of circuit techniques, and efficient partitioning of the AGC, sync
separator, and master-scan phase-locked loop.
This grouping of circuit functions is particularly
efficient. Since the video input is common to both
AGC and sync separator, the separated sync can be
internally coupled to the phase detector of the scan
phase-locked loop; the flyback waveform is required
for AGC gating and the phase detector.

When the scan is synchronized, current is supplied
to the AGC detector (comparator) during the separated sync. The negative-going sync video waveform
at pin 1 is compared with a 4.0 V level during this
time. As a result of the A GC loop, the tip of the sync
is clamped to 4.0 V.

The high AGC-loop gain provides the high slew
rate necessary for fast channel-to-channel gain
equalization and response to airplane flutter variations.
The AGE detector is gated ON by a pulse defined
by coincidence of horizontal flyback and sync.
Coincidence-gating provides improved AGC noise
immunity over systems only are flyback-gated.
Coincidence-gating maintains AGC levels in. the
event of temporary loss ofhoriwntal sync or disturbance of horiwntal timing.
Coincidence-gating demands the use. of two
additional internal circuits to compensate for two
extremes of video input level at pin 1. The first is a
sync recovery system (Figure 5).

.
SYNC RECOVERY SYSTeM

Extremes occur in the transition from a strong to a
weak signal. The AGC iooprequires time to respond
to new signal level. In the meantime, system gain is
too low, and the video amplitude at pin 1 is too low
for the sync separator to provide sync pulses for
coincidence-gating. The resulting condition would
be lockout of the signal. However, a threshold detector composed of Q35 and Q36 senses sync-separatQ~
(pin 2) voltages less than 3.8 V. When this occurs,
the AGC detector is gated by flyback only, allowing
theAGC system to respond to the new signal level.
As the video amplitude at pin 1 increases to its
nominal value, the AGe detector returns to .the
coincidence7gating mode.
The second extreme of video input level occurs in
the transition from a weak to a strong signal. In the
transition, the I-F amplifier overloads, resulting in a
low doc level at pin 1, Figure 6. The sync separator at
pin 2 charges to a higher doc level, and no sync pulses
are generiltedfor coincidence-gating. Lockout of'the
. signal is again possible, being dependent on both
AGC-loop response and sync-separator time constants.

The. threshold. detector, Q6 and Q4' senses when
the doc level at pin 1 is below 3.4 V. When this
occurs, the AGC detectoris gated by flybackonly,
allowing the AGC system to respond to the new
signal level. As th!l video.le\!elat pin 1 decreases.to
its nominal value, the AGe detector returns to the
coincidence-gating. mode..
The AGC primary filter at pin 15 integrates the
AGC-detector output into a doc voltage, which drives
the AGC control Circuit. A low doc level at pin 15
corresponds to a low received-signal level. Conversely, a high doc level at pin 15 corresPonds to a
high received-signal level.
Figure 7 is a simplification ofthe I-F portion ofthe
AGC control circ.uit As is common practice, the I-F
amplifier is gain7reduced prior to the tuner under
increasing signal levels.

The maximum-gain voltage of the AGC primary
filter is defined by the circuit designer as

buffered and applied to the base of Q33' which has as
its emitter load a dual time-constant sync-separator
network (Figure 9). Since this network is external to
the device, the circuit designer has freedom to
choose the sampling level and sync-separator time
constants.

V I4 - 0.7 V
since this level is internally clamped by Q18' Under
gain reduction, QI§and Qi7 force the voltage at pin 14
to follow 1.4 V below the primary filter voltage.
Produced by a series of emitter-followers, the I-F
AGC output has a gain of 1, referenced to the AGC
primary filter.
Choice of the external voltage-dividerlevel, V x, at
pin 13 (I-F AGC output) defines the maximum I-F
gain-reduction level, orAGC delay point, at which
the tuner is called upon for further gain reduction. As
there is a finite dead zone in the cross-over between
I-F AGC and tuner AGC, a capacitor between pin 14
(a buffered primary AGC filter a-c voltage source)
and pin 13 will decrease AGC recovery time in the
transition between I-F and tuner AGe.

L.J

A/

I

At the maximum I-F AGC level, V x, the values of
resistors R27 and R30 are such that the voltage at the
base ofQ27 is 1.4 V (Figure 8). This defines the point
at which tuner AGC action is initiated. The collector
current of Q27 is mirrored to provide forward-tuner
AGe with a trans-conductance gain of 2.1 mA N;
referenced to the AGC primary filter. The emitter
current of Q27 is mirrored to provide reverse-tuner
AGC with a gain of 3.1 mAN.

SINGLE PIN SYNC SEPARATOR

The separated sync-voltage waveform at the collector of Q33 is clamped to 7.3 V by Q38, and is
amplified by approximately 20 dB (Figure 10).
Complementary emitter-followers buffering the
sync waveform have an amplitude of 10 V pp. The
sync output is provided at pin 3, protected by shortcircuit current-limiting of approximately 25 mAo It
is internally coupled to the scan-phase detector. In
addition to protecting the device against accidental
shorts, grounding pin 3 also provides a convenient
method of adjusting the oscillator's free-run frequency.

Since Q4' (Figure 6), clamps the video waveform
to 0.5 V below the level of the sync tip, noise accompanying the incoming video is prevented from
severely altering the sampling level of the sync
separator.

Scan Processi;"g

The scan-phase detector consists of a differential
amplifier that is gated ON by separated sync. An
integrated flyback waveform is applied to the input
of the differential amplifier (Figure 11). The differential amplifier has an active load, providing singleended output of the phase-detector currents.

The negative-going sync video waveform at pin 1
is inverted and amplified by 6 dB. This waveform is

functions are external to the device. This provides the
circuit designer with freedom to define the characteristics of the oscillator: Free-run frequency, control
sensitivity and temperature compensation. Control
of free-run frequency allows operation of the circuit
in both countdown-synchronized and conventionally
synchronized receivers.
The oscillator is controlled by weighted summing
of quadrature components of feedback-signal current. Tbe quadrature is inherently defined by the
external resistor and capacitor of the tank circuit at
the input of each of the two differential amplifiers.
These external components are series connected.
Therefore, the capacitor voltage waveform lags that
of the resistor by 90°. V CO characteristics for a
S03.S-KHz L-C oscillator, vertical countdown receiver, are shown in Figure 13.

Figure 11

PHASE DETECTOR CIRCUIT

The positive and negative-output currents
(SOO /LA) of the phase detector are internally balanced to within approximately S% of the absolute
value of these currents. This limits the static phaseerror attributable to phase-detector imbalance. Since
the phase-detector output filter is external to the
device, pull-in characteristics can be defined by the
choice of external filter components at pin 10.
A simplification of the master-scan V CO of Type
ULN-2260A is shown in Figure 12. The VCO is
designed to minimize the effects of device parameter
variations on free-run frequency and VCO characteristics. Components defining phase-shift and filter

MASTER SCAN VCO

The device presented above was designed to
provide, with as much flexibility as possible, efficient partitioning of AGe, sync, and scan-control
functions. Coincidence AGC-gating was utilized to
improve AGC noise immunity. The circuit provides
a high-level separated-sync output for sync integrators. The scan-phase detector is accurately balanced internally. The scan VCO was chosen to
minimize the effects of device-parameter variations
on oscillator characteristics, and is adaptable to both
countdown-synchronized and conventionally synchronized receivers.

The preceding appears to indicate the best choice is an output impedance
of 16D with a 22 V supply. However, if an unregulated supply is used, the
designer may prefer an 8D load with a 16 V supply, since the absolute
maximum Vee rating of Type ULN-2280B is 26 V and since maximum
package dissipation must be calculated using the no-load voltage level.
The graph below (left) shows that the Staver V -8 heat sink would be just
adequate for design conditions outlined above at an ambient temperature of
sODe. The Staver V-7 heat sink would provide a wider margin of safety.

will function with supply ~6ltages as low as 2
volts (at reduced volume) without any signifi~
cant increase in distortio~. Weak batteries need
no longer be a major concerJl for users in sets
with this device. The class AD audio amplifier
also features low quiescent current drain for
maximum battery life.
The VLN-2283B is; rated for operation' over
the supply voltage range of 3.0 to 15 volts.
Selected devices, for operation'with supply
voltages of up to 18 volts, are aviilableas ULN2283B-1. Except for the. maximum allowable
supply voltage specification, the ULN-2283B
and the ULN"2283B-l are identical.
The ULN-2283B audi.~ power amplifier is supplied in an improved 8~lead dualiil-line. plasticpackage with two webbed tabs. A copper alloy
lead frame results' in' maximum power dissipation without need for an external heat.sink. Lead
configuration. is ,compatible with standard Ie
sockets or printed wirihg p(),rd hole layouts.

ULN·2283B LOW POWER AUDIO AMPLIFIER

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
To achieve the desired perfonnance objectives of
high power output and efficiency from a 2 to 18 V
supply requires that the amplifier be capable of
peak-Io-peak voltage swings approaching the avail~
able supply. To meet these perf'onnance objectives,
a power amplifier design is required. having no more
than one VBE of swing restriction.
As shown in Figure 1, the output stage is comprised of 2 NPN transistors (Q17 and Q18) plus a
phase inverter (Q15). Quiescent operating current is
set up by the current source (I).

,
~

DWGII:I.A-IO.897

Assuming Voq = Vcc/2 then the collector current
of Q15 = I, ignoring base currents, and if Q15 is
matched to Q18 as is possible in a monolithic circuit,
then the collector current of Q 18 equals the collector
curr,::nt of Q 15.
.

.llure2

To reduce the size ofQl5, an additional transistor
(Q16)is added to the circuit as shown in Figure 2.
Transistor Q16 divides I by its beta + 1 allowing
Q15 to be reduced in area by a similar value. In the
practical realization of the ULN-2283B, Q 15 is chosen as 115 the emitter area of Q18 with a typical beta
for Q16 of 6.

The circuit in Figure 1 achieves an excellent volt"
age swiQ.g capability of Vee - VBE - 2VCE(SAT)' This
to~ally NPN configuration also has good freedom
from the high-frequency problems that often occur
with quasi-complementary composite NPN-PNP
configurations,

D'lfJNO.A-IO.896

Figure 3 illustrates other refinements in the practical realization of the output circuit. The drive and
idling current I is derived from a Vcc dependent
source allowing maximum drive under maximum
supply conditions while affording reduced drive and
associated current conservation under minimum
supply conditions. IIi addition, the Q16 divider circuit is refme4 to reduce PNP beta dependence.
Finally with the addition of an input emitter follower
(Qll) and a local negative feedback loop (R8), the
output is completed as it appears in the ULN-2283B.

Although the circuit in Figure 1 has been incorporate4 in production monolithic circuits in essentially
the fonn shown, in practice it has unacceptable
design restrictions. Since I is also the base drive
current for Q17, the ratio of available base drive
current I to idling current is proportional to the ratio
of the emitter areas of Q18 to Q15. For practical
values of ~15/~18' i.e. one, the circuit has a serious
implementation problem; it requires three output
transistors (QI5, Q17, and Q18).

r- j f+~

The Vcc12 output tracking is achieved by summing the current flow through R4 and R5, with the
current through R13 "reflected off of ground."
Thus VcJ2 tracking is maintained by the voltage
drop across 2 resistors. This allows the current from
R13 to be bypassed at Pin 1, thereby combining the
ripple bypass capacitor with the audio feedback capacitor.
Figure 5 illustrates the complete power amplifier
as realized in the ULN-2283B, including the external components. The remarkably-low external component count, (only two capacitors including the
output coupling) reflects concern for simplicity in
implementation, yet the device achieves excellent
performance. Typical output power can be as high as
2.1 W from a 12 volt supply and useful output power
at supply voltages of as low as 2 volts.

The input stage ofthe power amplifier (Figure 4)
is comprised of a PNP differential pair (Q2 and Q3)
preceded by a PNP emitter follower (Ql) which
allows doc referencing of the source signal to
ground_ This eliminates the need for an input coupling capacitor. Overall negative feedback, set by the
ratio ofR4 to R5, is applied to the inverting input Q3
through an NPN emitter follower (Q7) which also
provides doc level shifting.

APPLICATIONS
Selection of power supply voltage and speaker impedance allow the designer to choose audio power
levels. No unique precautions are necessary when
designing with the ULN-2283B power amplifier. The
device is stable and a-c short-circuit immune.

ULN-2283BLOW POWER AUDIO AMPLIFIER

Ripple rejection is not practical to calculate due to
the large number of mechanisms involved. A
500 f.LF capacitor at Pin 1 achieves typically 34 dB
rejection.

The selection of amplifier load impedance involves more consideration than just the desired
power output. Ideally a low speaker impedance
would produce the highest power outputs for any
one supply voltage as the curves illustrated. However, operation with a 160, load can produce as
much power as with an 8!1 load. The higher impedance load will also furnish a significant reduction in
harmonic distortion and improvement in overall repeatability in power output capacity. In applications
which allow the selection of the power supply voltage it is therefore recommended that a 160, load
impedance be utilized in applications up to 1.2 watt.

The high gain of typically 42 dB and the high
input impedance (250 ill) of the power amplifier
allow utilization of this device for applications such
as ceramic cartridge phono amplifiers.

PRINTED WIRING BOARD LAYOUT
& SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

External component choice for the power
amplifier involves only two capacitors; one for the
speaker coupling and one for the feedback and ripple by-passing. The coupling capacitor value should
be selected to provide the desired low-frequency
cutoff with the chosen speaker impedance. The
feedback and ripple bypass capacitor at Pin 1 should
be chosen for both low-frequency audio rolloff and
supply ripple rejection.

Typical ceramic phono cartridges develop approximately 400 mY. However, the recommended
load impedance for the most economical cartridges
is usually 1 Mil. This poses no problem with the
250 kO input impedance of the ULN-2283B since
the cartridge manufacturer specifies the load impedance for full low-frequency response to less than
40 Hz. Decreasing the load impedance produces an
increased low end cutoff frequency.

Special on-chip considerations for. minimizing
tendencies towards. instabilities of all types were
taken in the design of the ULN-2283B. However,
like all high-gain circuits, care. and forethought
should still be given to a printed wiring board layout
to avoid undesirable effects. Input and output should
be well separated and should avoid common mode
impedances wherever possible. The ground return
for the audio bypass atPin 1 should be kept reasonably close to the volume control ground as Pins 1 and
8 represent the inverting and non-inverting inputs to
the amplifier and enjoy about 40 dB of common
mode rejection.

In a ULN-2283B based application employing a
cost and space conscious loudspeaker, 40 Hz program material capability is not only unnecessary but
undesirable, and therefore a mismatch of the cartridge to increase the lower cutoff frequency to a
value more in keeping with the other components of
the system is recommended.

Device dissipation vs. output power and supply
voltage for 4,8, and 16 ohm loads is shown in the
curves on page 4. With no heat sinking (free air), the
ULN-2283B audio power amplifier will withstand
the worst case conditions(4 nat 9 V) for ambient
temperatures to +42 .5°C. For conditions not shown,
for higher ambient temperatures, or for improved
device reliability, a minimum heat sink is recommended. As illustrated in the allowable package
power dissipation curves, with the heat sink tabs
(Pins 2, 3, 6, and 7) soldered into a 2.5 square inch
(16.13 cm 2 ) copper area of a printed circuit board,
adequate heat sinking is easily obtained.

The ULN-2283B audio amplifier stage has other
input considerations to be taken into account for best
results. The input is referenced to ground for internal biasing and must be provided with a d-c path to
ground. A current of typically 0.1 f.LAflows from
Pin 8 through the volume control producing an IR
drop which is multiplied by the closed loop d-c gain
of the amplifier (1), and appears as an error in output
centering at Pin 4. This recommends a value of
200 kfl or less for the volume control, with values
of less than 100 ill. preferred.

THE TYPE UGN-3020T and UGS-3020T are lowcost magnetically-activated electronic switches
utilizing the Hall effect for sensing a magnetic field.
Each circuit consists of a voltage regulator , Hall cell,
signal amplifier, Schmitt trigger, and current sinking
output stage integrated in a single monolithic silicon
chip.

FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM

These devices are packaged in the 3-pin single output. plastic "T" pack.
These devices were originally introduced with ULN
and ULS prefixes.

The on-board regulator permits stable operation
over a wide variation of supply voltages. Operation
over an extended temperature range is made possible
by the careful matching of components which can be
done economically only on a monolithic circuit.
Both devices will typically operate up to a 100 kHz
repetition rate.

HALL EFFECT DIGITAL SWITCHES

OPERATION
The output transistor is nonnally "off" when the
magnetic field perpendicular to the surface of the
chip is below the threshold or "operate point."
When the field exceeds the "operate point," the
output transistor switches "on" and is capable of
sinking 25 rnA of current. Selections to 50 rnA are
available.
The output transistor switches "off" when the
magnetic field is reduced below the' 'release point"
which is less than the "operate point." This is
illustrated graphically in the transfer characteristics
curve. The hysteresis characteristic provides for unambiguous or non-oscillatory switching.

(4.75 mm) long and a samarium cobalt magnet,
0.100" (2.54 mm) square and 0.040" (1.02 mm)
thick, are approximately 1200 gauss at the pole
surfaces.
The flux density decays at a high rate as the
distance from a pole increases.
As an example, using the Alnico VIII magnet
referenced above in good alignment and the pole
surface in contact with the branded surface of the
package, the flux density at the active Hall sensing
area of the device would be approximately 850
gauss.

The magnetic flux density is indicated for the most
sensitive area of the device. This area is centrally
located and 0.032" ±0.002" (0.81 ±0.05 mm)
below the branded surface of the T package and
0.012" ±0.002" (0.30 ±0.05 mm) below the
branded surface of the U package.

The flux density would drop to approximately 600
gauss with an air-gap between the package and the
magnet of 0.031" (0.79 mm).

For reference purposes, both an Alnico VIII magnet, 0.212" (5.38 mm) in diameter and 0.187"

Note: Switching point variations with temperature should be considered in applications covering a
wide temperature range.

The simplest fonn of magnet which will operate
the Hall effect bipolar digital switch is a multiple
pole ring magnet as shown. Such magnets are commercially available and are quite inexpensive.
The magnetic flux density is indicated for the most
sensitive area of the device. This area is centrally
located and 0.032" .±0.002" (0.81 ±0.05 mm)
below the top surface of the Tpackage and 0.012"
±0.002" (0.30 ±0.05 mm) below the top surface of
the U package. The magnetic circuit must provide a
+250 Gauss to -250 Gauss magnetic flux density
range at this point for all conditions to insure reliable
operation; + Gauss illdicates the South pole is toward the branded face of the package; - Gauss
indicates the North pole is toward the branded package face.

THE SPRAGUE TYPE UGN-3040T is a
magnetically-activated electronic switch with
extreme sensitivity for use with small, inexpensive magnets, or with relatively large magnet-toswitch distances.
Each circuit consists of a voltage' regulator,
Hall voltage generator, signal amplifier, Schmitt
trigger circuit, and an open collector output
driver integrated in a single silicop. chip.
The on-board regulator permits operation
over a wide range of supply voltages. Circuit
output can be interfaced directly with bipolar or
MOS logic circuits, and will typically operate up
to a 100 kHz repetition rate.

DUAL-OUTPUT HALL EFFECT DIGITAL SWITCHES

OPERATION
The output transistors are nonnally "off" when
the magnetic field perpendicular to the surface of the
chip is below the threshold or "operate point."
When the field exceeds the "operate point," the
output transistors switch "on" and will each typically sink 20mA.
The output transistors switch "off" when the
magnetic field is reduced below the' 'release point"
which is less than the "operate point." This is
illustrated graphically in the transfer characteristic
curves. The hysteresis characteristic provides for
unambiguous or non-oscillatory switching regardless of the rate of change of the magnetic field.

For reference purposes, both an Alnico VIII magnet, 0.212" (5.38 mm) in diameter and 0.187"
(4.75 mm) long and a samarium cobalt magnet,
0.100" (2.54 mm) square and 0.040" (1.02 mm)
thick, are approximately 1200 gauss at its surface.
The flux density decays at a high rate as the
distance from a pole increases.
As an example, using the Alnico VIII magnet
referenced above in good alignment and the pole
surface in contact with the branded surface of the
package, the flux density at the active Hall sensing
area of the device would be approximately 850
gauss (0.032" below the package surface).

The magnetic flux density is indicated for the
most sensitive area of the device. This area is centrally located and 0.037" ±0.001" (0.94 ±0.05
mm) below the top surface of the package.

The flux density would drop to approximately 600
gauss with an air-gap between the package and the
magnet of 0.031" (0.79 mm).

HALL EFFECT SENSORS

UGN·3604M and UGN-3605M
HAll EFFECT SENSORS
THE MOST BASIC Hall Effect magnetic field
sensors are the Type UGN-3604M and UGN360SM. The differential output of the devices is a
function of the magnetic flux density present at the
sensor. Sensitivity is a function of the control current: sensitivity increases as the control current increases.
The UGN-3604M and UGN-360SM are most
often used for magnetic circuit design, analysis,
testing and alignment, and for calibrating magnetic
sensing devices.

Gnd.

The UGN-3604M is supplied in an 8-pin DIP
package, with a calibration chart. The UGN-360SM
is the same device without the calibration chart.

DW(J. 110. A-901~8

The UGN-360SM is intended to be used primarily
as a sensing device. When operated from a constant
current source of 3 rnA the device provides a typical
sensitivity of 60 mY per 1000 gauss. This is the
preferred biasing method, to achieve the most stable
output voltagevs. temperature.

Each Type UGN-3604M Hall Effect sensor is
individually calibrated at a temperature of + 2SoC
using a supply voltage of S-volts. The calibration
chart supplied indicates differential output values
for a magnetic flux density range from 0 gauss to
1000 gauss. Sensitivity at this supply voltage level is
typically 40 mY per 1000 gauss.

2. To prevent permanent damage to a Hall cell
I.e., heat sink the leads during hand soldering. For

than 230°C for more than 5 seconds and no closer
than 0.125" (3.28 mm) to the epoxy package.
3. The magnetic flux density is indicated for the
most sensitive area of the device. This area is centrally located and 0.037" ±0.001" (0.94 ±0.03 mm)
below the top surface of the package.

4. For reference purposes, an Alnico VIII magnet, 0.212" (5.38 mm) in diameter and 0.187"
(4.75 mm) long or a samarium cobalt magnet,
0.100" (2.54 mm) square and 0.040" (1.02 mm)
thick, is approximately 1200 gauss at its surface.
Note that the flux density decays at a high rate as
the distance from a pole increases. In most cases,
this is a relatively linear decrease in the region of
interest, and it may range from 5 to 20 gauss/mil.

HISTORY AND THE HALL EFFECT

v+

E. H. Hall, at Johns Hopkins University in 1879,
first noted the effect that bears his name. A magnetic
field applied to a conductor carrying current produces a voltage across the conductor as shown in
Figure 6.

I

I

I

I

The effect is caused by electron deflection within
the solid, concentrating the negative charges to one
side orthe other depending on the influence of the
magnetic lines of force. The difference in potential is
called the Hall voltage.
The ratio Vt/IHis the Hall Coefficient. (V is the
Hall voltage, t the material thickness, I the primary
current flow, .and H the magnetic field.) This ratio is
a constant for a given material.
H. A. L6rentzapdJ>aul Drude developed theories
of conduction which apparently accounted for the
Hall Effect early in this century. Subsequently the
Hall Effect was widely used to study conductivity of
materials, with a Hall Coefficient assigned as a
means of classification.
Attempts to classify some specific materials such
as lead sulphide and silicon produced baffling, contradictory data. Tlie introduction of quantum
mechanics in 1926 provided a means for clarification
of tliese problems and other difficu.lties associated
with semieonductor materials.
A proper understanding of semiconductor theory ,
impurity conduction, junction theory and the fundamental approaches to semiconductor device design
did evolve out of studies using the Hall Effect.
The Hall voltage is proportional to the crossproduct I x H (Current x Field). A device that exhibits the Hall Effect is a multiplier: if current flow is
constant, the Hall voltage will be proportional to the
magnetic field applied; if the magnetic field is constant, the Hall voltage will be proportional to the
current flow.

Switching is dependent on the proximity of an
external magnet whose field passes perpendicularly
through the Hall voltage generator on the chip face.
The Hall generator produces an analog voltage
amplified and converted by the trigger circuit to a
digital output.
.
.

The maximum operate point for the VGN-3019T
switch is specified at 500 gauss and the minimum
release point at 100 gauss. The maximum hys~eresis
factor forthis switch, however, is 275 gauss. Should
the operate poi,nt fall near the maximum, the release
point will mOYe up as well. Similarly,' if the release
point falls near .the minimum, the operate point will
have a' correspondingly lower value. The hysteres~s
fac1.or will remail! close to a typical value.

Hall Effect Ie switches featUre such characteristics as high-speed response and very high cycle rates.
Typical rise time (turn-on) is 15 nanoseconds, fall
time (turn-off) 100 nanoseconds. These units have
the capability for cycling at 100,000 l{z(cyclesper-second).

'Basic fixed element switch designs will. take the
maximum and minimum operate and release points
into account. llowever, a configuration which permits adjustment of switch and magnet element~ in
assembly or operation can take advantage of the
closer tolerance hysteresis limits to achieve even
more precise switching characteristics.

Hall Effect Ie switches feature constant amplitude
output without the bounce characteristics of electromechanical switches. Hall Effect les also feature
low power consumption: 7 mA is typical.

Head-On Mode of Operation

The simplest form of magnet which will operate
the Hall Effect switch is a rod or bar. The curves
below illustrate typical flux density (in gauss) as a
function of air gap distance for two rod magnets.
In each case, the magnet is oriented with its axis
perpendicular to, and on the center line of, a Hall
Effect IC switch. Flux density and air gap distance
are measured along the magnet axis and switch centerline.

The switch used is the Sprague UGN-3019T. The
typical operate and typical release points are420 and
300 gauss, respectively.
An ALNICO V rod magnet 0.25" in diameter by
1.25" in length must be 0.18" or less from the
switch to insure operation at the 420 gauss typical
operate point. The magnet must be moved to a distanceO.25" from the switch to insure release, an
"operate-release" distance of 1/16 " .
The UGN-3019T can be switched with a larger or
stronger magnet over greater distances. Or, the device can be switched with a smaller or weaker magnet provided the air gap between the magnet and the
switch is properly decreased.
An ALNICO VIII rod magnet 0.212" in diameter
by 0.187" in length must be 0.05" or less from the
switch to insure operation at the 420 gauss typical
operate point. The magnet must be moved to a distance 0.085" from the switch to insure release at the
300 gauss typical release point.
Use of the smaller ALNICO VIII rod magnet
reduced the on-to-off motion from approx. 1/ 16 " to

The magnet is moved toward the switch to activate
it and away to release it. This method of operation is
commonly referred to as the head-on mode.

Slide-By Mode of Operation

Slide-By With Actuator

Hall Effect switches are often activated by means
of a slide-by movement of the magnet past the switch
as illustrated below.
The axis of the magnet remains perpendicular to
the face of the switch, the air gap remains constant,
and the magnet passes close enough to the switch to
activate it. The maximum flux density is obtained
when the magnet axis is on the switch centerline.

Magnetic fields may be distorted, interrupted,
squeezed, squashed, or focused by various ferromagnetic concentrators, shunts, vanes, flux returns, and actuators. The magnetic circuit improves
the efficiency of the magnet by concentrating the
magnetic field.
The extent of field distortion can be seen in a
comparison of flux density at the switch for a magnet
with and without the actuator. Flux density is plotted
in a slide-by mode, with a 0.05" air gap for an
ALNICO VIII rod magnet 0.188" in diameter by
0.938" in length.

The graph at bottom left shows slide-by characteristics for the same magnet used in the previous
head-on mode example. The air gap is 0.01". Flux
density at the switch is a function of the distance
between the magnet axis and the switch centerline.
Movement from the operate point to the release
point covers only 0.018". Movement continuing
past the switch covers an "operate-release" distance
of 0.24", but no change in direction is required.
"'~//

Without the actuator, the flux density across the
0.05" air gap is not sufficient to activate a UGN3019T, as illustrated in the graph at bottom right.
With the actuator, the 420 gauss operate point is
obtained with the magnet axis 0.15" from the switch
centerline.

Vane Activation

all affect the slope of the flux density curve. A
steeper curve will minimize the effect of switching
point tolerance and temperature and voltage variation. A stronger magnet reduces the vane travel required to switch the Hall Effect switch.
Switch designers have utilized strong magnets
with efficient magnetic circuit design in a fixed element molded assembly to provide a very high flux
density and a steep curve. This approach minimizes
operate-release point variations with changes in
temperature.

A ferromagnetic plate or vane moved between the
magnet and switch will shunt the field, shielding the
switch from the magnet. A movable vane, as shown
below, is a most practical device for switching a Hall
Effect IC.
Vane activation is often accomplished in a fixed
assembly incorporating a magnetic conductor to
concentrate and focus the magnetic field through the
switch. A ferrous vane is used to shunt the flux,
turning the switch off. The magnet, switch and
magnetic conductor may be molded in place,
eliminating alignment problems, and often producing an extremely rugged completed switch.
A fixed assembly designed for vane activation
lends itself to a wide variety of possible switch configurations.
Note the curve at bottom left is an approximation.
Several factors influence the switching characteristics of a vane activated Hall Effect switch. The relative position of the vane leading and trailing edges
and the strength of the magnet used are of primary
importance.
The flux density, vane dimensions, and material

A different design approach has used an adjustable
air gap, permitting use of a smaller magnet in the
magnetic circuit design. This design approach produces a shallow flux density curve, and places severe
operate-release point restrictions on the Hall switch
required. Vane material is typically greater than
1/32 " thick to result in a minimum flux density. This
leaves little clearance.
Generally, the physical position of the vane leading and trailing edges, (which determine switch
points), the switch characteristics, and the magnet
specifications should all be considered as part of an
overall switch design. Independent selection of any
element can severely restrict the possibilities for
designing an effective switch.
The graph at bottom right is a generalization of the
principle involved in reducing switching distances
and tolerances for vane activated switches. A
stronger magnet produces a higher initial flux density and a steeper curve. Note that a steep slope
minimizes the effect of temperature changes on the
operate point.

HALL EFFECT DEVICES (Contrnued)
Ring Magnets and Bipolar Switches

The curves shown are approximations. Actual
magnetic field exposure at the switch depends on the
field. strength available and themagnet-to-switch
spacing.

Multiple-pole ring magnets and Hall Effect bipolar switches are used to monitor or measure rotary
motion and are especially useful in high-speed applications: speedometer pickups, rpm indicators, angle
indicators, etc.
Rugged inexpensive ceramic or plastic ring magnets incorporate up to 20 magnetic pole pairs per inch
of ring diameter. The useful field strength available
in this type of magnet construction is approximately
250 gauss to 1000 gauss.

Ring magnets are available with radially-oriented
poles or with axially-oriented poles.
The output voltage wave form will be determined
by the specific distribution of the operate and release
points within the switching range. As with other Hall
Effect s~itches, both points move together within
the switching range so that the hysteresis factor remains close to the typical value in all cases, as
illustrated in the graph at bottom.

Sprague UGN-3030T and UGS-3030T bipolar
digital switches operate in the magnetic field range
of 250 gauss (South) to -250 gauss (North) and are
intended specifically for operation with multiplepole ring magnets.

RADIAL OR AXIAL ORIENTED POLES FOR
SWITCH ACTUATION WITH A RING MAGNET

Note below that exposure to a single pair of opposite magnetic poles accomplishes a single switching

MODEL OF A MAGNET

MAGNETIC FIELD MODEL OF AN ALNICO VIII
SINTERED ROD MAGNET

An inexpensive commercially available standard
ALNICO VIII magnet* is shown in the scale drawing. The solid lines are maximum operate and
minimum release points for a Sprague UGN-3019T
switch. The field strength levels indicated by dotted
lines are maximum operate and minimum release
points for other Sprague Hall Effect IC switches.
The field is unique to this magnet, and is a function of the material used and the geometry and dimensions of the magnet. Increasing the diameter
would tend to spread the field. Extending the length
of the magnet would strengthen the field.
A variety of magnet materials are commercially
available, each exhibiting unique field characteristics. A samarium-cobalt magnet only 0.085" square
by 0.04" long will produce up to 1200 gauss at its
pole surface, more than adequate field strength to
operate all Sprague Hall Effect IC switches. The
strongest known field available in a permanent magnet is that generated by an ALNICO V magnet
capped with a samarium-cobalt rare earth magnet.
The curves below left are flux density values for
the magnet measured for switch activation in a
head-on mode (along the magnet axis), and for
slide-by modes with air gaps of 0.01" and 0.025".

The slide-by curves cross each other, reflecting the

The magnetic flux density is indicated for the most

located and 0.032" ±0.002" below the branded
surface of the Tpackage and 0.012" ±0.002" below
the_branded face of the U package.
Note that Sprague Hall Effect ICs are designed to
be activated by the field generated by a magnetic
South pole, applied to the face or branded side of the
switch package. The Hall Effect switches will operate with a magnetic North pole of sufficient strength
applied to the back of the switch.
A magnetic South pole at the face, and a magnetic
North pole at the back of the switch at the same time
produce a concentrated field through the switch. A
magnetic South pole applied to the reverse side of the
switch will offset the effects of a South pole applied
to the switch face. Conversely, a North pole may be
applied to the back side ofthe switch so the device is
normally on, and a North pole approaching the
switch face will turn it off.

LOW-COST HALL EFFECT DIGITAL SWITCHES
Sprague offers 10 different Hall Effect switches
from its automated high-volume production, packaging and test facilities in Concord, N.H. These
rugged solid-state switches operate with small lowcost commercially available permanent magnets.

Hall voltage generator, signal amplifier, trigger circuit and output transistors on a single silicon chip.
Output transistors are normally OFF until a
magnetic activating field exceeds a specified operate
point. Switched ON the transistors will sink up to
25 rnA. See Electrical Characteristics below.

The devices feature "no-bounce" contactless
switching to 100,000 Hz, circuit operation over a
wide range of specified supply voltages (4.5 to
25 V), and constant amplitude output. Output stages
are easily interfaced with a variety of output loads.

The output transistors switch OFF when the activating field drops below a specified release point
that is a lower value than the operate point. This
switching hysteresis characteristic insures unambiguous, non-oscillatory switching.

Each Hall Effect switch is a plastic-packaged
monolithic integrated circuit: a voltage regulator,

SUGGESTED OUTPUT LOADS FOR HALL EFFECT SWITCHES
The output of each Sprague Hall Effect switch is a
grounded-emitter, open-collector structure. In the
absence of a magnetic field the output transistor is
OFF and switches ON when the proper field is
applied to the associated Hall voltage generator.

The graph at bottom left illustrates the typical output
ON voltage level as a function of temperature for the

Any type of load within specified current and voltage

high orOFF voltage level = 1. In the logic' '1" state,
the output is guaranteed to sustain a specified voltage

UGN·3501M Output Circuit Design

Note that the emitter-followers have no voltage
gain. The output voltage differential is essentially
the same as that of the UGN-3501M.

The output current handling capability of the
UGN-3501M is 0.5mA. In tbe differential connection one output pin sources load current, tbeotber
must sink it. A simple method for increasing drive
capability is illustrated below.

An operational amplifier will supply a voltage
gain and a current gain, and transform the differential output of the UGN-3501M to a single-ended
output. (The circuit will drive a load which has one
side grounded.)

'0 kJ..

A 4.3 kn resistor is connected from each output
pin to ground. The quiescent bias current of the
output stage is increased, and the sinking capability
is increased to 1 mAo
If even higher current drive capability is required,
the simplest solution is the addition of a pair of
emitter-followers:

The LM-324 quad operational amplifier will operate from a single power supply if the output does not
swing in the negative direction. Pin 1 of the UGN3501M does swing negative when a magnetic South
pole approaches the device surface. Pin 1, therefore,
is 'connected to the negative or inverting input of the
LM-324, and its output swings in the positive direction. Reversing connections to pins 1 and 8 allows
the output to respond to a magnetic North pole. If the
application requires the output be capable of swing
both negative and positive, then a dual ± power
supply would have to be used.

Up to 30 rnA ofload current can be sourced by the
circuit as shown, and this can be increased considerably by using Darlington power transistors and lower
resistance in the emitter circuits.

Current Sensing Applications

The UON-3501M is ideally suited for current
measurement applications. Typical applications are
overload detectors for electric motors, current limiters for high-current power supplies, clamp-on current probes for high-current d-c loads, etc.

A 470 ±5% resistor in series with pins~, and 6
extends .the useful linear range to 3000 gauss:

commercially-available electromagnetic devices
which can be used with the UON-3501M:

With this toroid, the UON-3501M, fixed in the

"read" from zero to 20 amperes, 9 turns would
develop 9 x 20 x 5.6 = 1008 gauss. The UON3501M would have a 1.4 volt output with a 20
ampere activating current.

The UON-3501M is quite linear to= 1000 gauss.
The input differential stage gain must be reduced to
maintain linearity beyond this range.

HALL EFFECT· DEVICES (Continued)
The chokes are wired in series opposing, and are
driven from a constant current source. Initial calibrationmay be accomplished with a UON-3600 Hall
generator supplied with a calibration curve. The current is fixed at the value which produces 1000 gauss.
The UON-350lM to .be calibrated is "zeroed"
and placed in the 1000 gauss field. The dual precision variable resistor is adjusted until the output is 1
volt. The UON-350lM circuit is re-zeroed out of the
field and the calibration rechecked.
The value of the precision variable resistor is then
measured. Two 1% resistors of the closest standard
value replace these in the final circuit configuration.

Hall Effect ICs are designed into Sprague's own
production and test equipment. Position-sensing digital switches control and monitor high-speed automatic machine operations. Hall Effect switch output
provides direct input to a microprocessor-based control I1nit.
Data is compiled continuously from critical points
in the production process. The control informs the
machine operator, makes automatic adjustments, indicates manual adjustments which may be necessary,
and reports on production.

The maximum ratings are limiting absolute values above which the serviceability may be impaired from the viewpoint of life or satisfactory performance. The breakdown voltages may be far above the maximum voltage ratings. To ovoid permanent damage to the transistor, do not
attempt to measure these characteristics above the maximum ratings.

2.

Pin 13 is connected to the substrate. This terminal must be tied to the most negative point in the external circuit to maintain isolation between

The collector of each transistor in the Type ULN·2081A and ULN-2082A is isolated from the substrate by an integral diode. The substrate must be
connected to a voltage which is more negative than any collector voltage so as to maintain isolation between transistors, and to provide normal transistor action. Undesi red coupling between transistors is avoided by mai ntai ning the substrate terminal (5) at either doc or signal (a·c) ground. An apprupriate bypass· capacitor can be us~d to establish a signal ground.

current (to 100 mAl switching and differential
amplifier applications, the ULN-2083A and ULS2083H transistor arrays each consist of five NPN
transistors on a single monolithic chip. Two transistors are matched at low currents (I mAl making them
ideal for use in balanced mixer circuits, push-pull

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The basic system shown in Figure 1 provides
power for the timer after the momentary closure of
the "rear window heater switch" S.. Momentary
closure provides an input to pin 4 which turns ON the
outpu~ driver, energizes the relay, and (through the
relay contacts) provides power to the timer and the
heater element. Wavefonns, are shown in Figure. 2.
The output remains ON, supplying power to the
heater until V7 = 62% V~, which ocCurs at time t =
R. X C•. The time delay can be adjusted from several
microseconds to approximately 10 minutes by the
choice of R. and C•. When t = R. X C., the comparator changes state and the relay de-energizes,
returning the circuit to the quiescent condition.
Timing accuracy is primarily a function of capacitor leakage for long time delays. Hard switching of

the comparator necessitates low input bias currents
on the comparator and low capacitor leakage current. The worst case comparator input is 200 nA and
the charge current at V7 = 62% V~ is approximately
1.7 IJ-A for R. = 2 MO. For these reasons, it is
recommended that R. not exceed 2 M!l and C1 leakage be less than 500 nA.
Diode D. and the circuitry associated with pin 4
provide start-stop capability for the timer. When the
voltage at pin 4 is larger than 8 V timing is initiated.
When less.than 5.5 V, timing is stopped. Transient

Operating Characteristics·

These devices have several important. operating
characteristics.
One of the most useful of these features is the
reverse voltage handling capability of the entire series. These devices will withstand reverse voltages of
up to -20 V indefinitely without damage. Where
exact timing is not required (±8 ms), they can be
operated directly from a low-voltage a-c supply
without rectification or filtering and thus save a considerable amount in circuit cost.
The output load can be of any form: Resistive,
inductive, capacitive, tungsten, LED, etc. For
switching inductive loads, Type ULN-3304M or
ULN-3306M triggers with their internal Zener diode
clamps are recommended. Tungsten or capacitive
loads can be handled by any of the devices provided
the peak (one-cycl~) load current is limited to about
300 mAo

Thresh91d Detection

Voltage level detection is easily accomplished
with any of the Schmitt triggers in the Series ULN3300M. Shown in Figure 6A is the basic threshold
detector. Resistor R J Or R2 can be replaced with a
transducer such as a thermistor or photocell. The
circuit of Figure 6B is used when the input voltage is
greater than 0.62 Vcc. The circuit of Figure 6C is

case where R, = R2 and Vee = 10 V, the input
voltage switching points for Figure 6B are 12.4 and
11.0 volts and for Figure 6C, 2.4 and 1.0 volts.
Switching errors are caused by component tolerc
ances (including V 1N1H) and V 1N1L)), temperature
changes (typically only ±30 ppm fC), and the effect
ofIm. Under worse case conditions this should not be
more than 50 nA. If the values of Rl and R2 are
chosen such that the current through them is at least
5 rnA under V1N(H) conditions, the effect OfIIN can be
ignored. Typical values for Rl and R2 are usually
between 10 kDand 10 MD. ResistorRL is normally
between 1 kD and 100 kD.

Timing

Series ULN-3300M Schmitt triggers can be used
in timing applications by connecting an RC integrator to the input as shown in Figure 7. Typical
values for R are 10 kD to 10 mD; C is between
100 pFand 10 JLF; RLis between 1 kDand 100 kD.
Timing accuracy· arid maximum time delay obtainable are defined by the input characteristics of the
device, component tolerances, and the leakage current of the capaci tor. Assuming ideal external timing
components, the minimum, typical, and maximum
switching times are shown as a function of the RC
time constant.

Astable Multivibrators

From the equations several points are evident:

Positive feedback from the inverting output (Vom )
to the RC network will form a relaxation oscillator or
astable multivibrator. This connection is possible
with Type ULN-3305M.
The basic astable multivibrator illustrated in Figure 9 can be used for the condition where the period tl
is less than the period t2. In this configuration, the
following design equations apply:

C. If Rl is made very large with respect to R"
the effect of R2 can be minimized or ignored.
With the typical values shown for Figure 7 , frequencies of between 4 Hz and 100 kHz are possible.

In each of these astable multivibrators certain limitations should be noted.
A. Any d-c load connector to VOUT will change
the period tl because of the loading effect on R2 •
Fo~ this reason, the output should probably be
taken from VOUT.
B. The circuit of Figure lOA has a diode voltage
drop in the RC timing network and is therefore
not recommended for use with very low supply
voltages.
C. The capacitor leakage current can be significant for large values of R, and, as an extreme, can cause the trigger ·to "latch up."

Figure lOB
Monostable Multivibrators

The basic monostable multivibratoris shown in
Figure 11. In the quiescent state, the itiput and the
output are both "low." If a trigger is applied that
raises the input to the Schmitt trigger threshold, V oU'!'
will go "high," applying V cc back to the input fora
period t = 0.6 RC if resistor R is much greater in
value than R L. The 1 Mil resistor prevents loading of
the network by the trigger.
In this circuit, the output loading of RL is desirable, provided the device output current rating is not
exceeded. The trigger input voltage should be between 0.66 Vee +0.7 V and Vee' and the trigger
pulse width must be less than the output pulse width.
Output pulse widths of lO~s to 100 seconds are
possible. The input pulse width should be at least
10 ns.
Where output pulse ~~thJI are shorter than the
trigger pulse width, the cUellit shown in Figure 12 is
used. In this application, only the lea4ing edge of the
trigger pulse is used after being differentiated by one
Schmitt trigger. The . time constantS of the differentiated leading edgethen determine the output pulse
width as tl = 0.6 Re.
As before, resistorR is much 'greater in value than
RL, the trigger input voltage must be between 0.66
Vee and Vee' the trigger pulse width must be greater
than the output pulse width. In addition, to insure
that the timing cap.llcitor completely discharges,
period 1, should be at least'five times period t l .

CUSTOM CIRCUIT DESIGNS
Sprague is active in the design of standard and
custom high-volume integrated circuits and subassemblies for both linear and digital applications. A
wide range of semiconductor technologies is available to optimize cost and performance. Often, new
processes or innovative circuit designs are required.
The first concern of a designer of a custom device
is generally one of cost, though performance, reliability, size, and process are also important considerations.

Integrated Component Capability

Production Volume: Unit cost is dependent on quantity. A minimum volume of $250,000 per year is
required after the initial design and development.
Chip Size: Unit cost is directly affected by chip
size, which is related to circuit complexity, outputcurrent and output-voltage ratings.
Test Requirements: Logic, d-c. and static measurements are simple, fast, and inexpensive to perform, while linear measurements such as those for
distortion, phase and noise affect production rates
and increase cost.
Specifications: Well-defined specifications can
expedite circuit design. Excessive or arbitrarily tight
specifications will reduce yields and increase cost.

THERMAL DESIGN FOR
PLASTIC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS

+50°C is specified. The maximum allowable chip
temperature is usually + 150°C for silicon.
Thermal resistance is the all-important design factor. It is composed of several individual elements,
some of which are determined by the integrated
circuits manufacturer, and some by the user.

pROPER THERMAL DESIGN is essential for reliable operation of many electronic circuits.
Under severe thermal stress, leakage currents increase, materials decompose, and components drift
in value or fail. Present-day linear integrated circuits
are capable of delivering 5 to 10 watts of continuous
power. Previously, such· power levels came only
with discrete metal can power transistors. It was
relatively easy to determine the thermal resistance of
these devices and attach a massive heat sink. However, in many markets, economic factors now dictate
the use of molded dual in-line plastic packaged
monolithic circuits. The guidelines to be discussed
will provide the circuit design engineer with information on maintaining junction temperature below a
safe limit under worst case conditions.

Chip Power Dissipotion

The chip power dissipation should be obtainable
from·the manufacturer's specifications. In most applications it is a variable and determined by the user
when he specifies the circuit variables.
A typical example is the Sprague Type ULN -2277
dual 2-watt audio. power amplifier. Power dissipation is determined by the load impedance, the requiredpeak output power, the acceptable amount of
total harmonic distortion (THD), and the supply
voltage (Vee). This is illustrated in Figures 1-3. Note
that for a given supply voltage, the chip dissipation
may be greatest at some point below the peak output
power rating and must be considered.
As shown in the figures, a peak output power of 2
watts per channel with 3% maximum THD wOlild
mean a chip power dissipation of about 2.7 Wand a
V cc of 15 V with a load impedance of 4il, or 1.8 W
and 15 V at 8il, or 1.4 Wand 19 V at 16il. In
general, the highest load impedance for a given output power is the most desirable (within the output
voltage capability of the device).

Design Considerotions

Four factors must be considered before the required heat-sinking can be determined. These are:
I. Maximum ambient temperature
2. Maximum allowable chip temperature
3. lunction-to-ambient thermal resistance
4. Continuous chip power dissipation
Maximum ambient temperature for the integrated
circuit is normally between + 70°C and +85°C and is
usually dependent on the Case material. In most
applications, however, the limiting factor is the associated discrete components and a limit of about

being altered from the standard 14-pin or 16-pin
designs.
Rapidly becoming an industry standard is the
"bat-wing" package. This package is the same size
as a 14-pin dual in-line package, but the center portion of the frame is left as tabs, measuring about ~ /I
square. These tabs can be soldered, welded, or
bolted to a heat sink, or inserted directly into some
sockets. The worst case thermal resistance of various
lead frames (SJc) is given below.

Heat Dissipation

In any circuit involving power, a major design
objective is to reduce the temperature of the components in order to improve reliability, reduce cost, or
improve operation. The logical place to start is with
the heat-producing component itself. First, keep the
amount of heatgenerated to a minimum. Second, get
rid of the heat that must be generated.
Heat generation can be minimized through proper
circuit design. Heat dissipation is a function of thermal resistance.
With the typical discrete component, heat dissipation can be accomplished by fastening it directly to
the chassis. Dual in-line plastic packaged integrated
circuits, however, are quite a bit different. Their
shape is not conducive to fastening directly to the
chassis, they are normally installed in a plastic socket or on a printed wiring board, and the heat producing chip is not readily accessible.
Some users specify unusual packages so as to get
the heat sink as close as possible to the chip and lor
provide an attachment point for an external heat sink.
A common factor in many of these special designs is
that the lead frame is an integral part of the heat sink.
Since the plastic package may have a thermal
resistance of between 50 and 100°C IW and the lead
frame a thermal resistance of only 10 to 20°C IW,
this would seem like the best route to go.

Which Heat Sink?

If the integrated circuit manufacturer has done his
job well, the chip-to-ambient thermal resistance will
be minimized for maximum chip power dissipation.
It would appear that even the Kovar lead frame would
be adequate for most applications. However, the
total thermal resistance (8JA ) is also dependent on a
stagnant layer of air at the lead frame-ambient interface which will support a temperature gradient. The
total thermal resistance of a non-heat sinked dual
in-line plastic package is therefore much higher.
Since air is a natural thermal insulator, maximum
heat transfer is througLl convection and the total
thermal resistance will decrease some at high power
levels.

Standard Packages

The most common lead frame material has been
Kovar (an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy). Its coefficient of
expansion is close to that of silicon thereby minimizing mechanical stresses. However, Kovar has a relatively high thermal resistance and consequently is
not suitable for standard lead frames in high power
dissipation circuits. For these applications, copper or
copper-alloy lead frames should be used.
Additionally, some type of added heat sinking may
be necessary. Thus lead frame configurations are

Ignoring any safety margin and deviceperformance, even the "bat-wing" is now only barely
adequate for most applications. The obvious solution
is the use of an external heat sink.

PACKAGE INFORMATION (Continued)

Heat sinks for plastic dual in-line packages can be
of almost unlimited variety in design, material, and
finish. Economics will normally playa very important role in the selection of any heat sink.

Referring to Figures 4 and 5, the thermal resistance requirement of the· heat sink is found at the
junction of the specified chip power dissipation and
maximum ambient temperature. These curves are
typical of those furnished in many monolithic integrated circuit data sheets. Actual performance in a
specific situation depends on factors such as the
proximity of objects interfering with air flow, heat
radiated or convected from other components, atmospheric pressure, and humidity. A good safety
factor is therefore in order.

The least expensive and easiest to fabricate heat
sink is the plain copper sheet. It is also very effective
in reducing the total thermal resistance. The necessary dimensions can be obtained from Figure 6.
These heat sinks are square in geometry, 0.015 inches thick, mounted vertically on each side of the lead
frame, and with a dull or painted surface (Figure 7).
The heat sinks should be soldered directly to the lead
frame (approximately 0.3°e /W interface thermal
resistance).

The plain copper sheet heat sink is also available
commercially and may be less expensive than inhouse manufacture. Two standard types are the

The circuit manufacturer must optimize his chip
design so that component drift is minimized and lor
equalized so that rated performance can actually be
obtained under maximum thermal stress.

Heat Sink Finishes

Although plain copper is an effective heat sink, it
is sometimes qesirable to have something that is
more appealing to the eye. For this reason, and
others, many heat sinks are either painted or
anodized.

Note in Figures 8 and 9 that the Darlington input
differential pairs are cross-connected so as to
minimize differences in gain as a function of output
transistor power dissipation. Transistor Q., being
closest to the output power transistors is naturally the
hottest; Q3 is a degree or two cooler; Q[ and Q, are about
equal and midway between Q3 and Q•. The gain of the
Q[-Q, Darlington pair is about equal to the gain ofQrQ. at
all output power levels because of careful thermal design.

The most common finish is probably black anodizing. It is economical and offers a good appearance.
The black finish will also increase the performance
of the heat sink, due to radiation, by as much as 25%.
However, since anodizing is an electrical and thermal insulator, the heat sink should have an area free
of anodize where the heat-generating device is attached.
Other popular finishes for heat sinks· are irridite
and chromic acid dips. They are economical and
have negligible thermal and electrical resistances.
These finishes, however, do not enjoy the 25% increase in performance that a dull black finish has.
Forced Air Cooling

The performance of many heat sinks can be increased by as much as 100% by forcing air over the
fins. Where space is a problem, the cost of a small
fan can often be justified. If a fan is required for other
purposes, it is advantageous to place the semiconductor heat source in the air flow. A rule-of-thumb is
that semiconductor failure rate is halved for each
lOOC reduction in junction operating temperature.

Figure 8

Chip Design

Proper thermal design by the integrated circuit
user can reduce the operating temperature of the
semiconductor junction. However, the minimum
chip temperature at any power level is determined
solely by the device manufacturer. For this reason,
care must be taken in choosing the manufacturer.
"Exact equivalent" integrated circuits are not necessarily identical. Electrically and mechanically they
may be the same, but thermal differences can mean
that' 'identical" audio power amplifiers will not put
out the same power without exceeding the rated
junction temperature.

Figure 9

PACKAGE INFORMATION (Continued)

In certain specialized applications, thermal coupling can be used to a distinct advantage. Experimentally, thermal coupling has been used to provide a
low-pass feedback network which otherwise could
be obtained only with very large values of capacitance.
'

The foregoing discussion has covered the average
thermal characteristics oftoday's dual in-line plastic
integrated circuits. The specific devices will vary
with the different packages and bonding techniques
employed, but the concepts will remain the same.

APPENDIX

The following is intended to review terminology
and compare thermal circuits with the more familiar
electrical quantities.
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy
cannot be created or destroyed but can be converted
from one form to another. The second law of thermodynamics states that energy transfer will occur
only in the direction of lower energy. In the
semiconductor junction, the electrical energy is converted to thermal energy. Since no heat will be stored
at the junction, the heat will flow to a lower temperature medium, air. The rate of heat flow is dependent
on the resistance to that flow and the temperature
difference between the source and the sink.

This thermal electrical analogy is convenient only
for conduction problems where heat flow and temperature obey linear equations. The analogy becomes much more complex for situations involving
heat flow by convection and radiation. Where these
two modes are not negligible, they can be approximated by an equivalent thermal resistance. If ignored, the error introduced will only improve the
device reliability.

EXCESSIVE heat shortens the
life of an IC and reduces its
operating capability. Until recently, ICs were capable of
operating only in low-power applications requiring perhaps a
few milliwatts of power. But
now, new ICs handle several
hundred milliamperes and
drive devices such, as. relays,
solenoids, stepping motors, and
incandescent lamps. These high
power levels may increase IC
temperatures substantially and
are capable of destroying devices unless appropriate precautions are taken.

Thermal Characteristics
The thermal characteristics
of any IC are determined by four
parameters. Maximum allowable IC chip junction temperature
T J and thermal resistance R.
are specified by the IC manufacturer. Ambient temperature TA
and the power dissipation PlJ
are determined by the user.
Equation 1 expresses the rela-

and heat sink Rs.

Junction temperature T J
usually is limited to 150°C for
silicon ICs. Devices may operate
momentarily at slightly higher
temperatures, but device life
expectancy decreases exponentially for extended hightemperature operation. Usually, the lower the junction
operating temperature, the
greater the anticipated .life of
the IC.
Ambient temperature T. is

12-9

traditionally limited either to
70°C or 85°C for plastic dual inline packages (DIPS) or 125°C for
hermetic devices. Again, the objective is to operate at as Iowa
junction temperature as practical.
Thermal resistance Ro is the
basic thermal characteristic for
ICs. It is usually expressed in
terms of °C/W and represents
the rise injunction temperature
with a unit of power applied in
still air. (The reciprocal of
thermal resistance is thermal
conductance, or derating factor,

What the Curves Show

("C)

Typical thermal· resistance ratings for ICs in stili air range
from 60"C/W to 140"C/W. The slope of each curve on this
graph is equal to the derating factor GH, which is the
reciprocal of thermal resistance All. For an ambient
temperature of SO"C. a typical 14-lead flatpack with an AH of
140"C/W can dissipate about 0.7 W. A typical DIP, however.
with 14 copper-alloy leads can dissipate almost 1.7 W at
SO·'C.
The highest allowable package power dissipation shown
here is 2.S W. Other special-purpose DIP packages are
available with power dissipation ratings as high as 3.3 W at
O"C (AH 4S"C/W). If not for package limitations. IC chip
dissipation might be greater than 9 W at an ambient
temperature of up to 70"C.
Although the curve for plastic DIPs goes all the way to
IS0"C. they ordinarily are not used in ambients above 85"C
because of traditional package limitations. Hermetic DIPs
are specified to temperatures of 12S"C. and at IS0"C the
device should be derated to 0 W. The higher
specification limits for hermetic devices is the result of
their design for use in rigorous, high-reliability military
applications.

Duty Cycle
<400r------r.------~·~~·--·~~~~·-·····-···

S
Duty cycle is important in calculating IC junction
temperature because average power-not instantaneous
power-is responsible for heating the IC. To convert from
peak power to average power, multiply the peak power
dissipation by the duty cycle. The average-powllr rating is
then used with the thermal-resistance rating to calculate
the IC Junction temperature. Thus. short dutycycles allow
peak power to be high without exceeding the IS0"C
Junction-temperature limit. However. this consideration
applies only to ON times of less than 0.5 sec.

Ie Temperature

Sometimes IC junction temperature cannot be calculated
readily and instead must be measured. Measurement should
be made when there is insufficient data with which to
calculate. when the effects of external variables such as
forced-air cooling orenclosure size must be determined, or as
a check on the manufacturer's specifications regarding
package thermal resistance.
The,most popular technique for measuring IC temperature
uses the characteristic of a diode to reduce its forward voltage
with temperature. Many IC chips have some sort of accessible
diode-parasitic, input protection, base-emitter junction, or
output clamp. With this technique, a "sense" diode is
calibrated so that forward voltage is a direct indicator of diode
junction temperature. Then, current is applied to some other
component on the chip to simulate operating conditions and
to produce a temperature rise. Since the thermal resistance of
the silicon chip is low, the temperature of the sense diode is
assumed to be the same as the rest of the monolithic chip.
The sense diode should be calibrated over at least the
expected junction operating temperature chamber. Apply an
accurately measured, low current of about 1 mA through the

sense diode and measure the forward voltage in 25°C
increments after stabilization at each temperature. This
calibration provides enough data for at least six points to
construct a diode-forward-voltage versus
junction-temperature graph at the specified forward current.
A typical 25°C forward voltage is between 600 and 750 mV and
decreases 1.6 to 2.0 mV/oC.
For power levels above2W, it may be necessary to use more
than a single transistor if only the device saturation voltage
and sink current are used. When higher power is desired, keep
the output out of saturation.
Measuring the sense-diode forward voltage may require a
considerable waiting period (10 to 15 minutes) for thermal
equilibrium. In any event, at the instant of measurement, the
heating power may have to be disconnected since erroneous
readings may result from IR drop in circuit common leads.
Various circuit connections (such as four-point Kelvin) may be
arranged to reduce or eliminate this source of error.
The IC junction temperature can be determined by
comparing the voltage measurement with the internal power
source against the voltage measurement with the temperature
chamber.

Operating and Handling Practices
for MOS Integrated Circuits
Handling Practices - Packaged Devices

Automatic Handling Equipment

Grounding alone may not be sufficient and feed
mechanisms should be insulated from the devices under test at the point where the devices are connected
to the test equipment. Ionized air blowers can be of
aide here and are available commercially. This
method is very effective in eliminating static electricity problems.

Sprague Electric incorporates input protection
diodes in all of its MOS/CMOS devices. Because of
the very high input resistance in MOS devices, the
following practices should be observed for protection
against high static electrical charges:
1. Device leads should be in contact with a conductive material except when being tested or in
actual operation.

Ambient Conditions

Dry weather with accompanying low humidity
tends to intensify the accumulation of static charges
on any surface. In this atmosphere, proper handling
procedures take on added importance. If necessary,
steam injectors can be procured commercially.

2. Conductive parts of tools, fixtures, soldering
irons and handling equipment should be
grounded.
3. Devices should not be inserted into or removed
from test stations unless the power is off.

Alert Failure Modes

4. Neither should signals be applied to the inputs
while the device power supply is in an off condition.

The common failure modes that appear when
static energy exists and when proper handling practices are not used are:

S. Unused input leads should be committed to
either VSS or VDD.

1. Shorted input protection diodes.
2. Shorted or 'blown' open gates.
3. Open metal runs.

Handling Practices - Ole

Simple diagnostic checks with curve tracers or
similar equipment readily identifies the above failure
modes.

A conductive carrier should be used in order to
avoid differences in voltage potential.
