Hybrid Linearizers, a brief explanation ...

Several important application notes regarding linearizers are available (in compact .PDF format) in our Application Notes Download Area.



Hybrid linearizers are bipolar chip-and-wire hybrid circuits which can be delivered either as packaged or unpackaged (substrate) units. They are very useful whenever the tuning curve (or output voltage curve) of a device needs correction or modification.


Analog units consist of a high impedance analog input section, a linearizer with two to five active breakpoints, and a current source or sink output stage. Digital input types are available, with monotonicity assured by design.


Additional detailed information will be added to this portion of our web site, in the coming weeks.


Please contact the factory for a hybrid linearizer design guide, application notes, and design disk.
