ML2008 - Micro Linear

ML2008 uP Compatible Logarithmic Gain/Attenuator

The ML2008 and ML2009 are digitally controlled logarithmic gain/attenuators with a range of –24 to +24dB in 0.1dB steps. Easy interface to microprocessors is provided by an input latch and control signals consisting of chip select and write. The interface for gain setting of the ML2008 is by an 8-bit data word, while the ML2009 is designed to interface to a .
