QUAD/DUAL ELECTRICALLY PROGRAMMABLE ANALOG DEVICE (EPAD™)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ALD1108E/ALD1110E are monolithic quad/dual EPAD® (Electrically
Programmable Analog Device) N-channel MOSFETs with electrically
adjustable threshold (turn-on) voltage. The ALD1108E/ALD1110E are
matched and adjusted (e-trimmed) at the factory resulting in quad/dual
MOSFETs that are highly matched in threshold voltages and other electrical
characteristics. For a given input voltage, the threshold voltage of a
MOSFET device determines its drain on-current, resulting in an on-
resistance characteristic that can be precisely preset and then controlled by
the input voltage very accurately.
Using an ALD1108E/ALD1110E is simple and straight forward. The
MOSFETs function as n-channel MOSFETs, except that all the devices
have exceptional matching to each other in electrical characteristics. Since
these devices are on the same monolithic chip, they also exhibit excellent
tempco matching characteristics.
These MOSFET devices have very low input currents, and as a result a very
high input impedance (>10
12
Ohm). The gate voltage from a control source
can drive many MOSFET inputs with practically no loading effects. Used in
precision current mirror or current multiplier applications, they can be used
to provide a current source over a 100nA to 3mA range, and with either a
positive, negative or zero tempco.
