IC28D buffers the DC gain-controlling voltage and delivers it to
comparator IC42A. The PWM squarewave from IC42A drives PWM
attenuator IC46D. IC45B and IC37A comprise another 4-pole low-pass
reconstruction filter to remove the 152kHz PWM switching component.
Gain Reduction
Indicators
IC28C is a slope detector sampling the wideband compressor/limiter
DC control voltage. The output of this op-amp toggles positive,
lighting the
W.B.
LED, when a
rapid
voltage increase indicates the
reduction of a program peak.
IC23D performs a similar function for the DC voltage corresponding to
the
average
program level. Configured as a linear gain stage, the
output normally sits at ground. With no compressor activity, both the
–
and the
+
AVERAGE COMPRESSION
indicators will be lighted to
half-brightness. The slope of the DC voltage derived from the average
program level is translated into varying brightness between the two
LEDs, indicating the
direction
of compressor gain and, to some extent,
the
amount
.
HIGH FREQUENCY LIMITER
C75, R193/R194 and IC38A constitute an equalizer with a constant
6dB/octave rising characteristic. IC41A sums this equalized signal (via
R198) with “flat” program audio (via R197), to impart proper pre-
emphasis to the program audio. JMP1 may be jumpered for the 75µs
(American) or 50µs (CCIR) pre-emphasis standard.
Independent high frequency limiting is afforded by feedforward gain
control of the equalized program signal. Inverter stage IC39A, with
diodes CR38 and CR39, yield full-wave rectification of the equalized
signal. The resulting DC is integrated by C70. Limiter attack is
established by R181, release by R180. The output of buffer IC36A is
fed to comparator IC29A which switches PWM attenuator IC40B.
IC23A lights the front-panel
H.F.
indicator for any appreciable high
frequency limiter action.
Pre- and
Post-Limiting
Equalization
Even though the equalized program signal is held constant at a 100%-
modulation level, an unavoidable level buildup occurs near the pre-
emphasis crossover frequency when it is summed with flat program
audio. To restore proper frequency response, C78 and R202 give the
summing amplifier a shelving roll-off characteristic. This is
complimentary to the shelving boost imparted by IC48B. Net response
conforms to the selected pre-emphasis curve
below
the high frequency
limiting threshold, and maintains a 100%-modulation level at all
frequencies
above
it. This limiter “ceiling” value (at the output of
IC41A) is +5dBu.
