FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LM13700 series consists of two current

differential inputs and a push-pull output. The two
Excellent Matching between Amplifiers
amplifiers share common supplies but otherwise
operate independently. Linearizing diodes are
Linearizing Diodes
provided at the inputs to reduce distortion and allow

higher input levels. The result is a 10 dB signal-to-

noise improvement referenced to 0.5 percent THD.
High impedance buffers are provided which are

especially designed to complement the dynamic
range of the amplifiers. The output buffers of the
Current-Controlled Amplifiers
LM13700 differ from those of the LM13600 in that
Current-Controlled Impedances
their input bias currents (and hence their output DC
levels) are independent of I
