LM1596/LM1496 Balanced Modulator-Demodulator General Description Features The LM1596/LM1496 are doubled balanced modulator-demodulators which produce an output voltage proportional to the product of an input (signal) voltage and a switching (carrier) signal. Typical applications include suppressed carrier modulation, amplitude modulation, synchronous detection, FM or PM detection, broadband frequency doubling and chopping. The LM1596 is specified for operation over the b55 C to a 125 C military temperature range. The LM1496 is specified for operation over the 0 C to a 70 C temperature range.

TL/H/7887 - 4 Note: S1 is closed for ``adjusted'' measurements. SSB Product Detector Numbers in parentheses show DIP connections. TL/H/7887 - 6 This figure shows the LM1596 used as a single sideband (SSB) suppressed carrier demodulator (product detector). The carrier signal is applied to the carrier input port with sufficient amplitude for switching operation. A carrier input level of 300 mVrms is optimum. The composite SSB signal is applied to the signal input port with an amplitude of 5.0 to 500 mVrms. All output signal components except the desired demodulated audio are filtered out, so that an offset adjustment is not required. This circuit may also be used as an AM detector by applying composite and carrier signals in the same manner as described for product detector operation. 4 Typical Applications (Continued) Broadband Frequency Doubler Numbers in parentheses show DIP connections. TL/H/7887 - 7 The frequency doubler circuit shown will double low-level signals with low distortion. The value of C should be chosen for low reactance at the operating frequency. Signal level at the carrier input must be less than 25 mV peak to maintain operation in the linear region of the switching differential amplifier. Levels to 50 mV peak may be used with some distortion of the output waveform. If a larger input signal is available a resistive divider may be used at the carrier input, with full signal applied to the signal input. 5 6 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) Metal Can Package (H) Order Number LM1496H or LM1596H NS Package Number H08C Molded Small Outline Package (M) Order Number LM1496M NS Package Number M14A 7 LM1596/LM1496 Balanced Modulator-Demodulator Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) (Continued) Molded Dual-In-Line Package (N) Order Number LM1496N NS Package Number N14A LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL'S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
