Aimtron Technology AT1512
The AT1512 includes bias circuits to drive up to 3 external FETs. This feature is particularly used as an LNB polarisation switch. The detector has been specifically designed to reject inerference such as low frequency signals and DiSEqCTM tone bursts - without the use of additional external components.| Part No. | AT1512 |

DESCRIPTION
A control input to the device selects either one of two FETs as operational using 0V gate switching topology, the third FET is permanently active. Also specific to LNB applications is the enhanced 22kHz tone detection and logic output feature which is used to enable high and low band frequency switching. Drain current setting of the AT1512 is user selectable over the range from 0 to 15mA, this is achieved with the addition of a single resistor. The series also offers the choice of FET drain voltage, the AT1512 gives 2V. These dev...
