LT1251/LT1256
APPLICATIONS
Control Circuit Description
The control section of the LT1251/LT1256 consists of two
identical voltage-to-current converters (V-to-I); each
V-to-I contains an op amp, an NPN transistor and a
resistor. The converter on the right generates a full-scale
current I

gain from each signal input to the output.
The op amp in each V-to-I drives the transistor until the
voltage at the inverting input is the same as the voltage at
the noninverting input. If the open end of the resistor (Pin
5 or 10) is grounded, the voltage across the resistor is the
same as the voltage at the noninverting input. The emitter
current is therefore equal to the input voltage V
the resistor value R
the same as the emitter current and it is the ratio of the two
collector currents that sets the gain.
The LT1251/LT1256 are tested with Pins 5 and 10 grounded
and a full-scale voltage of 2.5V applied to V

In the LT1256, K changes linearly with I

that K is 100%, V
the guaranteed gain accuracy.
To eliminate the overdrive requirement, the LT1251 has
internal circuitry that senses when the control current is at
about 5% and sets K to 0%. Similarly, at about 95% it sets
K to 100%. The LT1251 guarantees that a 2% (50mV)
input gives zero and 98% (2.45V) gives 100%.
The operating currents of the LT1251/LT1256 are derived

The inverting inputs of the V-to-I converters are available
so that external resistors can be used instead of the
internal ones. For example, if a 10V full-scale voltage is
desired, an external pair of 20k resistors should be used to
set I
greater than the maximum V
transistors from saturating. Do not use the internal resis-
tors with external resistors because the internal resistors
have a large positive temperature coefficient (0.2%/ C)
that will cause gain errors.
If the control voltage is applied to the free end of resistor
R
of the control voltage must be inverted. Therefore, K will
be 0% for zero input and 100% for – 2.5V input, assuming
