AC97 PC AUDIO RESITOR NETWORK SW AC97 PAC AC97 pin to pin compatible, Stable resistor network Signal conditioning and gain setting resistors for all standard audio functions Low noise thin film resistors ± 1% match Gain modification by changing resistors externally Better than –90 dB Inter-channel and channel-to-channel crosstalk Analog audio system for Pentium II Class personal computers, used in conjunction with Audio Codec, CS4297, or AD1819A The SWAC97 provides the components necessary for signal conditioning of analog audio inputs for an AC97 compliant Codec as well as gain setting resistors for headpfone and microphone amplifiers. Since analog signal levels can be as high as 2 Vrms, the SWAC97 provides 6 dB of attenuation (to 1 Vrms) for LINE-IN, AUX, and CD inputs. The CD line level inputs of the SWAC97 have an additional ground signal, CD_GND, that supports the pseudo differential amplifier present in AC97 Codecs. This feature facilitates attenuation of common mode ground noise typically present at the output of CD ROM drives. Connecting the CD pins as indicated in the application circuit provides attenuation of common mode noise from the CD inputs, thereby producing a higher quality CD signal. Finally, the device provides gain-setting resistor for the headphone and microphone amplifiers. The SWAC97 provides exceptional Inter-channel and channel-to-channel crosstalk attenuation necessary for high quality audio. These products are manufactured using advanced thin film technologies including ultra-stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metalization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. In die form, these products are ideal for hybrid and multichip module applications. In package form, these products are the best solution where space and weight are a concern. SEMICONDUCTOR-THIN FILM MANUFACTURING PROCESS DESCRIPTION Integrated passive networks are manufactured using advanced thin film technologies including ultra -stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film resistor technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. Semiconwell employs proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of sheet resistance films from 1W/sq to 10,000W/sq. All Semiconwell's products are available in die form and as KGD, known good die and are ideal for high reliability hybrid and multi chip module applications. Besides thin film resistors, Semiconwell integrates capacitors, Schottky diodes, Zener diodes and transistors. Integrated passive and active networks are manufactured using Semiconwell's in house high reliability semiconductor manufacturing processes. All semiconductor devices employ precision doping via ion implantation, silicon nitride junction passivation, platinum silicided contacts and gold interconnect metallization for best performance and reliability. MNOS capacitors and Tantalum Nitride resistors are easily integrated with Schottky diodes to provide complete standard and custom RCD solutions. In die form, these products are ideal for hybrid and multi chip module applications. In packaged form, these products are the best solution where space and weight are a concern.
