Power-Down VS/2), any
changes in the parallel data will result in a change in the gain,
after propagation delays. This is referred to as the transparent
mode of operation. If DENB is held low, the last 4-bit word in
the gain control register will remain latched regardless of the signals
at the data inputs. Noise and Distortion It is a common aspect of this style of VGAs, however implemented, that the effective noise figure worsens as the gain is
reduced. The AD8369 uses a fixed gain amplifier, having a certain
invariant noise spectral density, preceded by an attenuator.
Thus, the noise figure increases simply by 6 dB per tap point,
from a starting point of 7 dB at full gain. …
