9 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

An application of the LM833 is the two stage RIAA Phono Preamplifier. A primary task of the phono preamplifier is to provide gain (usually 30 to 40 dB at 1 kHz) and accurate amplitude and phase equalization to the signal from a moving magnet or a moving coil cartridge. In addition to the amplification and equalization functions, the phono preamp must not add significant noise or distortion to the signal from the cartridge. The circuit shown in Figure 36 uses two amplifiers, fulfills these qualifications, and has greatly improved performance over a single-amplifier design.

9.2 Typical Application

9.2.1 Design Requirements

  • Supply Voltage = ±15 V
  • Low-Frequency −3 dB corner of the first amplifier (f0) > 20 Hz (below audible range)
  • Low-Frequency −3 dB corner of the second stage (fL) = 20.2 Hz

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

9.2.2.1 Introduction to Design Method

Equation 1 through Equation 5 show the design equations for the preamplifier.

Equation 1. R1 = 8.058 R0A1

where

  • A1 is the 1 kHz voltage gain of the first amplifier
Equation 2. eq01_c1_slos481.gif
Equation 3. eq02_r2_slos481.gif
Equation 4. eq03_c3_slos481.gif
Equation 5. eq04_c4_slos481.gif

where

  • fL is the low-frequency −3 dB corner of the second stage

For standard RIAA preamplifiers, fL should be kept well below the audible frequency range. If the preamplifier is to follow the IEC recommendation (IEC Publication 98, Amendment #4), fL should equal 20.2 Hz.

Equation 6. eq05_av2_slos481.gif

where

  • AV2 is the voltage gain of the second amplifier
Equation 7. eq06_co_slos481.gif

where

  • f0 is the low-frequency −3 dB corner of the first amplifier

This should be kept well below the audible frequency range.

A design procedure is shown below with an illustrative example using 1% tolerance E96 components for close conformance to the ideal RIAA curve. Because 1% tolerance capacitors are often difficult to find except in 5% or 10% standard values, the design procedure calls for re-calculation of a few component values so that standard capacitor values can be used.

9.2.2.2 RIAA Phono Preamplifier Design Procedure

A design procedure is shown below with an illustrative example using 1% tolerance E96 components for close conformance to the ideal RIAA curve. Since 1% tolerance capacitors are often difficult to find except in 5% or 10% standard values, the design procedure calls for re-calculation of a few component values so that standard capacitor values can be used.

Choose R0. R0 should be small for minimum noise contribution, but not so small that the feedback network excessively loads the amplifier.

Example: Choose R0 = 500

Choose 1 kHz gain, AV1 of first amplifier. This will typically be around 20 dB to 30 dB.

Example: Choose AV1 = 26 dB = 20

Calculate R1 = 8.058 R0AV1

Example: R1 = 8.058 × 500 × 20 = 80.58 k

Equation 8. eq07_calculate_c1_slos481.gif
Equation 9. eq07_B_example_c1_slos481.gif

If C1 is not a convenient value, choose the nearest convenient value and calculate a new R1 from Equation 10.

Equation 10. eq08_r1_slos481.gif

Example: New C1 = 0.039 μF.

Equation 11. eq09_newr1_slos481.gif

Calculate a new value for R0 from Equation 12.

Equation 12. eq09_B_r1_slos481.gif
Equation 13. eq10_example_newr0_slos481.gif

Use R0 = 499.

Equation 14. eq11_calculate_r2_slos481.gif

Use R2 = 8.45 K.

Choose a convenient value for C3 in the range from 0.01 μF to 0.05 μF.

Example: C3 = 0.033 μF

Equation 15. eq12_calculate_rp_slos481.gif

Choose a standard value for R3 that is slightly larger than RP.

Example: R3 = 2.37 k

Calculate R6 from 1 / R6 = 1 / RP − 1 / R3

Example: R6 = 55.36 k

Use 54.9 k

Calculate C4 for low-frequency rolloff below 1 Hz from design Equation 5.

Example: C4 = 2 μF. Use a good quality mylar, polystyrene, or polypropylene.

Choose gain of second amplifier.

Example: The 1 kHz gain up to the input of the second amplifier is about 26 dB for this example. For an overall 1 kHz gain equal to about 36 dB we choose:

AV2 = 10 dB = 3.16

Choose value for R4.

Example: R4 = 2 k

Calculate R5 = (AV2 − 1) R4

Example: R5 = 4.32 k

Use R5 = 4.3 k

Calculate C0 for low-frequency rolloff below 1 Hz from design Equation 7.

Example: C0 = 200 μF

9.3 Typical Application — Reducing Oscillation from High-Capacitive Loads

While all the previously stated operating characteristics are specified with 100-pF load capacitance, the LM833 device can drive higher-capacitance loads. However, as the load capacitance increases, the resulting response pole occurs at lower frequencies, causing ringing, peaking, or oscillation. The value of the load capacitance at which oscillation occurs varies from lot-to-lot. If an application appears to be sensitive to oscillation due to load capacitance, adding a small resistance in series with the load should alleviate the problem (see Figure 39).
