CXA1597M Overview
The CXA1597M/P is a bipolar IC developed for recording equalizer amplifier in analog cassette decks. It is suited specifically for double cassette decks. Incorporating the filter circuit greatly reduces the external parts.
CXA1597M Key Features
- Built-in filter required for recording equalizer amplifiers
- Inductor (coil) is unnecessary
- Low frequency boost is possible with an external capacitor
- Built-in recording mute function (requiring only an external time constant circuit to implement soft mute)
- Fade in/out DC controllable
- NORM/CrO2/METAL tape mode switching function
- NORM/HIGH tape speed recording switching function
- DC controllable for recording level calibration (approximately ±6dB variable)
- DC controllable for high frequency equalizer amplifier gain (approximately ±4dB variable)
- Built-in 2 channels
