LM1596/LM1496 Balanced Modulator-DemodulatorGeneral Des criptionThe LM1596/LM1496 are doubled balanced modulator-demodulatorswhich produce an output voltage proportional tothe product of an input (signal) voltage and a switching (carrier)signal. Typical applications include suppressed carriermodulation, amplitude modulation, synchronous detection,FM or PM detection, broadband frequency doubling andchopping.The LM1596 is specified for operation over the b55§C toa125§C military temperature range. The LM1496 is specifiedfor operation over the 0§C to a70§C temperature range.FeaturesY Excellent carrier suppression65 dB typical at 0.5 MHz50 dB typical at 10 MHzY Adjustable gain and signal handlingY Fully balanced inputs and outputsY Low offset and driftY Wide frequency response up to 100 MHz
