LOW SUPPLY SLOPE AND INTERCEPT

ADJUSTMENT

When using the device with a supply of less than 4 V, it is

necessary to reduce the slope and intercept at the VLOG pin

to preserve good log conformance over the entire 160 dB oper-

ating range. The voltage at the VLOG pin is generated by an

internal current source with an output current of 40 μA/decade

feeding the internal laser trimmed output resistance of 5 kΩ.

When the voltage at the VLOG pin exceeds VP − 2.3 V, the

current source ceases to respond linearly to logarithmic

increases in current. Avoid headroom issues by reducing

the logarithmic slope and intercept at the VLOG pin and by

connecting an external resistor, RS, from the VLOG pin to

ground in combination with an intercept lowering resistor, RZ.

The values shown in Figure 28 illustrate a good solution for a

3.0 V positive supply. The resulting logarithmic slope measured

at VLOG is 62.5 mV/decade with a new intercept of 57 fA. The

original logarithmic slope of 200 mV/decade can be recovered

using voltage gain on the internal buffer amplifier.

CHANGING THE VOLTAGE AT THE SUMMING NODE

The default value of VSUM is determined by using a quarter

of VREF (2 V). This can be altered by applying an independent

voltage source to VSUM, or by adding an external resistive

divider from VREF to VSUM. This network operates in parallel

with the internal divider (40 kΩ and 13.3 kΩ), and the choice

of external resistors should take this into account. In practice,

the total resistance of the added string may be as low as 10 kΩ

(consuming 400 μA from VREF). Low values of VSUM and

thus VCE are not advised when large values of IPD are expected.
