1
A1
CT
Timing Capacitor Connection. Connect a capacitor to CT to control the Attack and Release times of
the AGC.

SHDN
Active-Low Shutdown Control
3
A2
CG
Amplifier DC Offset Adjust. Connect a 2.2µF capacitor to GND to ensure zero offset at the output.

B3
A/R
Tri-Level Attack and Release Ratio Select. Controls the ratio of attack time to release time for the AGC
circuit.
A/R = GND: Attack/Release Ratio is 1:500
A/R = V
DD
: Attack/Release Ratio is 1:2000
A/R = BIAS: Attack/Release Ratio is 1:4000

C3
GAIN
Tri-Level Amplifier Gain Control.
GAIN = V
DD
, gain set to 40dB.
GAIN = GND, gain set to 50dB.
GAIN = Unconnected, uncompressed gain set to 60dB.
12
C2
BIAS
Amplifier Bias. Bypass to GND with a 0.47µF capacitor.
13
C1
MICBIAS
Microphone Bias Output
14
B1
TH
AGC Threshold Control. TH voltage sets gain control threshold. Connect TH to MICBIAS to disable
the AGC.
