Applications include: (i) Control, adjustment and set-up of communications equipment by an Intelligent ATE without manual intervention – eg. Deviation, Microphone and L/S Levels, Rx Audio Level etc. (ii) Automatic Dynamic Compensation of drift caused by variations in temperature, linearity, etc. (iii)Fully automated servicing and re-alignment.

The FX019 is a single-chip LSI consisting of four digitally controlled amplifier stages, each with 15 distinct gain/attenuation steps. Control of each individual amplifier is by an 8-bit serial data stream. Three of the amplifier stages offer a +/-3dB range in steps of 0.43dB, whilst the remaining amplifier offers a +/-14dB range in steps of 2dB, and is suggested for volume control applications. Each amplifier includes a 16th 'Off' state which when applied, mutes the output audio from that channel. This array uses a Chip Select input to select one of two FX019s in a system. Fig.1 Functional Block Diagram

Analogue Inputs : These individual amplifier inputs are self-biasing, a.c. input analogue signals must be capacitively coupled to these pins, as shown in Figure 2. Note that amplifiers Ch1 to Ch4 are 'inverting amplifiers.' Controlled Analogue Outputs : The individual "Gain Controlled" amplifier outputs. Ch1 to Ch3 range from -3dB to +3dB in 0.43dB steps, Ch4 could be utilized as a volume control, ranging from -14dB to +14dB in 2.0dB steps. In the “OFF” mode there is no output from the selected amplifier. Serial Clock : This external clock pulse input is used to “clock in” the Control Data. See Figure 4, Serial Control Data Load Timing. This input has an internal 1MΩ pullup resistor. Load/Latch : Governs the loading and execution of the control data. During serial data loading this input should be kept at a logical '0' to ensure that data rippling past the latches has no effect. When all 8 bits have been loaded, this input should be strobed '0' - '1' - '0' to latch the new data in. Data is executed on the falling edge of the strobe. If the Load/Latch input is used this pin should be left open circuit. This input has an internal 1MΩ pullup resistor. Load/Latch : The inverted Load/Latch input. This function governs the loading and execution of the control data. During serial data loading this input should be kept at a logical '1' to ensure that data rippling past the latches has no effect. When all 8 bits have been loaded, this input should be strobed '1' - '0' - '1' to latch the new data in. Data is executed on the rising edge of the strobe. If the Load/Latch input is used this pin should be left open circuit. This input has an internal 1MΩ pulldown resistor. Ch1 Input : Ch2 Input : Ch3 Input : Ch4 Input : V SS : Negative supply rail (GND). VBIAS : The output of the on-chip bias circuitry, held at VDD /2. This pin should be decoupled to VSS as shown in Figure 2. Ch4 Output : Ch3 Output : Ch2 Output : Ch1 Output : Chip Select : A logic input to select one of two FX019 microcircuits in a system, see Table 1. This input has an internal 1MΩ pulldown resistor. Control Data Input : Operation of the 4 amplifier channels (Ch1 – Ch4) is controlled by the 8 bits of data entered serially at this pin. The data is entered (bit 7 to bit 0) on the rising edge of the external Serial Clock. The data format is described in Tables 1, 2 and Figure 4. This input has an internal 1MΩ pullup resistor. V DD : Positive supply rail. A single +5-volt power supply is required.

(g) A "Ground Plane" connected to VSS will assist in eliminating external pick-up on the channel input and output pins. (h) Do not run high-level output tracks close to low- level input tracks. (i) Input signal amplitudes should be applied with due regard to Figure 3. (a) A noisy or badly regulated power supply can cause instability and/or variance of selected gains. (b) Care should be taken on the design and layout of the printed circuit board. (c) All external components (Figure 2) should be kept close to the FX019 package. (d) Inputs and outputs should be screened wherever possible. (e) T racks should be kept short. To avoid excess noise and instability in the final installation it is recommended that the following points be noted. Notes (1) Channel Amplifiers 1 to 4 are inverting amplifiers. (2) Analogue input capacitors C1 to C4 are only required for a.c. input signals, d.c. input signals do not require these components.

This 8-bit word, consisting of 4 Address bits (bit 7 to bit 4) and 4 Gain Control bits (bit 3 to bit 0), is loaded to the Control Data Input in serial format using the external data clock. Data Loading The 8-bit data word is loaded bit 7 first and bit 0 last. Bit 7 must be a logic “1” to address the chip. If bit 7 in the word is a logic “0” that 8-bit word will not be executed. The Chip Select input permits the use of two devices in a system; To facilitate this, Bit 6 can be either a logic “0” or “1.” Figure 4 (below) shows the timing information required to load and operate this device.

In the process of creating a more global image, the three standard product semiconductor companies of CML Microsystems Plc (Consumer Microcircuits Limited (UK), MX-COM, Inc (USA) and CML Microcircuits (Singapore) Pte Ltd) have undergone name changes and, whilst maintaining their separate new names (CML Microcircuits (UK) Ltd, CML Microcircuits (USA) Inc and CML Microcircuits (Singapore) Pte Ltd), now operate under the single title CML Micro- circuits. These companies are all 100% owned operating companies of the CML Microsystems Plc Group and these changes are purely changes of name and do not change any underlying legal entities and hence will have no effect on any agreements or contacts currently in force. CML Microcircuits Product Prefix Codes Until the latter part of 1996, the differentiator between products manufactured and sold from MXCOM, Inc. and Consumer Microcircuits Limited were denoted by the prefixes MX and FX respectively. These products use the same silicon etc. and today still carry the same prefixes. In the latter part of 1996, both companies adopted the common prefix: CMX.
