The temperature variation in the term “a” can be ignored
since it is much less than that of the term “T” in the
equation for Vbe. Using a 2.5V source this way will main-
tain the gain constant within 1% over the full temperature
range of –55°C to 125°C. If the 2.5V source is off by 10%,
the gain will vary only about ±6% over the same tempera-
ture range.
We can also temperature compensate the transconduc-
tance without using a 2.5V reference if the negative power
supply is regulated. A Thevenin equivalent of 2.5V is
generated from two resistors to replace the reference. The
two resistors also determine the maximum set current,
approximately 1.1V/RTH. By rearranging the Thevenin
equations to solve for R4 and R6 we get the following
equations in terms of RTH and the negative supply, VEE.
R4 = R TH and R6 = R THV EE

tance amplifier requires converting the voltage into a
current that flows into Pin 5. Because the voltage at Pin 5
is two diode drops above the negative supply, a single
resistor from the control voltage source to Pin 5 will
suffice in many applications. The control voltage is refer-
enced to the negative supply and has an offset of about
900mV. The conversion will be monotonic, but the linear-
ity is determined by the change in the voltage at Pin 5
(120mV per decade of current). The characteristic is very
repeatable since the voltage at Pin 5 will vary less than
±5% from part to part. The voltage at Pin 5 also has a
negative temperature coefficient as described in the pre-
vious section. When the gain of several LT1228s are to be
varied together, the current can be split equally by using
equal value resistors to each Pin 5.
For more accurate (and linear) control, a voltage-to-
current converter circuit using one op amp can be used.
The following circuit has several advantages. The input no
longer has to be referenced to the negative supply and the
input can be either polarity (or differential). This circuit
works on both single and split supplies since the input
voltage and the Pin 5 voltage are independent of each
other. The temperature coefficient of the output current is
set by R5.

Voltage Controlled Gain
To use a voltage to control the gain of the transconduc-
Digital control of the transconductance amplifier gain is
done by converting the output of a DAC to a current flowing
into Pin 5. Unfortunately most current output DACs
sink rather than source current and do not have output
