ROHM Semiconductor BA8400FV
The BA8400FV is a CTL recording / playback amplifier developed for VHS VCRs. The playback amplifier has an AGC circuit that can handle large input signal fluctuations, and a recording / playback switching circuit is provided to allow high-speed switching.APPLICATIONS
● VHS-format VCRsFEATURES
● 1) Can be operated off low power supply voltage (2.7V to 3.5V). 2) Playback amplifier with AGC. 3) Fast switching between recording and playback.●Block diagram MONI OUT HysBIAS FILTER 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 P RECPBGND 7 Ref R CTL – 6 BIAS AGC IN – AMP CTL + 5 P VCC DET REC AMP R P 1 2 SW 3 CTL OUT RECHPB RECIN GND 4 R AGC 1 Video ICs BA8400FV
