PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD532 is the first pretrimmed single chip monolithic multi-
plier/divider. It guarantees a maximum multiplying error of
1.0% and a
10 V output voltage without the need for any
external trimming resistors or output op amp. Because the
AD532 is internally trimmed, its simplicity of use provides
design engineers with an attractive alternative to modular multi-
pliers, and its monolithic construction provides significant ad-
vantages in size, reliability and economy. Further, the AD532
can be used as a direct replacement for other IC multipliers that
require external trim networks (such as the AD530).
FLEXIBILITY OF OPERATION
The AD532 multiplies in four quadrants with a transfer func-
tion of (X
1
X
2
)(Y
1
Y
2
)/10 V, divides in two quadrants with
a 10 V Z/(X
1
X
2
) transfer function, and square roots in one
quadrant with a transfer function of
10 V Z. In addition to
these basic functions, the differential X and Y inputs provide
significant operating flexibility both for algebraic computation and
transducer instrumentation applications. Transfer functions,
such as XY/10 V, (X
2
Y
2
)/10 V,
X
2
/10 V and 10 V Z/(X
1
X
2
),
are easily attained and are extremely useful in many modulation
and function generation applications, as well as in trigonometric
calculations for airborne navigation and guidance applications,
where the monolithic construction and small size of the AD532
offer considerable system advantages. In addition, the high
CMRR (75 dB) of the differential inputs makes the AD532
especially well qualified for instrumentation applications, as it
can provide an output signal that is the product of two transducer-
generated input signals.
GUARANTEED PERFORMANCE OVER TEMPERATURE
The AD532J and AD532K are specified for maximum multi-
plying errors of
2% and
1% of full scale, respectively at
+25
C, and are rated for operation from 0
C to +70
C. The
AD532S has a maximum multiplying error of
1% of full scale
at +25
C; it is also 100% tested to guarantee a maximum error
of
4% at the extended operating temperature limits of 55
C
and +125
C. All devices are available in either the hermetically-
sealed TO-100 metal can, TO-116 ceramic DIP or LCC packages.
J, K and S grade chips are also available.
ADVANTAGES OF ON-THE-CHIP TRIMMING OF THE
MONOLITHIC AD532
1. True ratiometric trim for improved power supply rejection.
2. Reduced power requirements since no networks across sup-
plies are required.
3. More reliable since standard monolithic assembly techniques
can be used rather than more complex hybrid approaches.
4. High impedance X and Y inputs with negligible circuit
loading.
5. Differential X and Y inputs for noise rejection and additional
computational flexibility.

Figure 1. Functional Block Diagram
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The functional block diagram for the AD532 is shown in Figure
1, and the complete schematic in Figure 2. In the multiplying
and squaring modes, Z is connected to the output to close the
feedback around the output op amp. (In the divide mode, it is
used as an input terminal.)
The X and Y inputs are fed to high impedance differential am-
plifiers featuring low distortion and good common-mode rejec-
tion. The amplifier voltage offsets are actively laser trimmed
to zero during production. The product of the two inputs is
resolved in the multiplier cell using Gilbert's linearized trans-
conductance technique. The cell is laser trimmed to obtain
V
OUT
= (X

X

)(Y

)/10 volts. The built-in op amp is used
to obtain low output impedance and make possible self-contained
operation. The residual output voltage offset can be zeroed at
V
OS
in critical applications . . . otherwise the V
OS
pin should be
grounded.

AD532 PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
Multiplication accuracy is defined in terms of total error at
+25
C with the rated power supply. The value specified is in
percent of full scale and includes X
IN
and Y
IN
nonlinearities,
feedback and scale factor error. To this must be added such
application-dependent error terms as power supply rejection,
common-mode rejection and temperature coefficients (although
worst case error over temperature is specified for the AD532S).
Total expected error is the rms sum of the individual compo-
nents since they are uncorrelated.
Accuracy in the divide mode is only a little more complex. To
achieve division, the multiplier cell must be connected in the
feedback of the output op amp as shown in Figure 13. In this
configuration, the multiplier cell varies the closed loop gain of
the op amp in an inverse relationship to the denominator volt-
age. Thus, as the denominator is reduced, output offset, band-
width and other multiplier cell errors are adversely affected. The
divide error and drift are then
m
10 V/X
1
X
2
) where
m
represents multiplier full-scale error and drift, and (X
1
X
2
) is
the absolute value of the denominator.
NONLINEARITY
Nonlinearity is easily measured in percent harmonic distortion.
The curves of Figures 3 and 4 characterize output distortion as
a function of input signal level and frequency respectively, with
one input held at plus or minus 10 V dc. In Figure 4 the sine
wave amplitude is 20 V (p-p).
Figure 3. Percent Distortion vs. Input Signal
Figure 4. Percent Distortion vs. Frequency
AC FEEDTHROUGH
AC feedthrough is a measure of the multiplier's zero suppres-
sion. With one input at zero, the multiplier output should be
zero regardless of the signal applied to the other input. Feed-
through as a function of frequency for the AD532 is shown in
Figure 5. It is measured for the condition V
X
= 0, V
Y
= 20 V
(p-p) and V
Y
= 0, V
X
= 20 V (p-p) over the given frequency
range. It consists primarily of the second harmonic and is mea-
sured in millivolts peak-to-peak.
Figure 5. Feedthrough vs. Frequency
COMMON-MODE REJECTION
The AD532 features differential X and Y inputs to enhance its
flexibility as a computational multiplier/divider. Common-mode
rejection for both inputs as a function of frequency is shown in
Figure 6. It is measured with X

DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS
The closed loop frequency response of the AD532 in the multi-
plier mode typically exhibits a 3 dB bandwidth of 1 MHz and
rolls off at 6 dB/octave thereafter. Response through all inputs is
essentially the same as shown in Figure 7. In the divide mode,
the closed loop frequency response is a function of the absolute
value of the denominator voltage as shown in Figure 8.
Stable operation is maintained with capacitive loads to 1000 pF
in all modes, except the square root for which 50 pF is a safe
upper limit. Higher capacitive loads can be driven if a 100
resistor is connected in series with the output for isolation.
Figure 8. Frequency Response, Dividing
POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
Although the AD532 is tested and specified with
15 V dc
supplies, it may be operated at any supply voltage from
10 V
to
18 V for the J and K versions, and
10 V to
22 V for the S
version. The input and output signals must be reduced propor-
tionately to prevent saturation; however, with supply voltages
below
15 V, as shown in Figure 9. Since power supply sensitiv-
ity is not dependent on external null networks as in the AD530
and other conventionally nulled multipliers, the power supply
rejection ratios are improved from 3 to 40 times in the AD532.
Figure 9. Signal Swing vs. Supply
NOISE CHARACTERISTICS
All AD532s are screened on a sampling basis to assure that
output noise will have no appreciable effect on accuracy. Typi-
cal spot noise vs. frequency is shown in Figure 10.
Figure 10. Spot Noise vs. Frequency
APPLICATIONS CONSIDERATIONS
The performance and ease of use of the AD532 is achieved
through the laser trimming of thin-film resistors deposited di-
rectly on the monolithic chip. This trimming-on-the-chip tech-
nique provides a number of significant advantages in terms of
cost, reliability and flexibility over conventional in-package
trimming of off-the-chip resistors mounted or deposited on a
hybrid substrate.
First and foremost, trimming on the chip eliminates the need
for a hybrid substrate and the additional bonding wires that are
required between the resistors and the multiplier chip. By trim-
ming more appropriate resistors on the AD532 chip itself, the
second input terminals that were once committed to external
trimming networks (e.g., AD530) have been freed to allow fully
differential operation at both the X and Y inputs. Further, the
requirement for an input attenuator to adjust the gain at the Y
input has been eliminated, letting the user take full advantage of
the high input impedance properties of the input differential
amplifiers. Thus, the AD532 offers greater flexibility for both
algebraic computation and transducer instrumentation
applications.
Finally, provision for fine trimming the output voltage offset has
been included. This connection is optional, however, as the
AD532 has been factory-trimmed for total performance as
described in the listed specifications.
REPLACING OTHER IC MULTIPLIERS
Existing designs using IC multipliers that require external trim-
ming networks (such as the AD530) can be simplified using the
pin-for-pin replaceability of the AD532 by merely grounding
the X
2
, Y
2
and V
OS
terminals. (The V
OS
terminal should always
be grounded when unused.)

For operation as a multiplier, the AD532 should be connected
as shown in Figure 11. The inputs can be fed differentially to
the X and Y inputs, or single-ended by simply grounding the
unused input. Connect the inputs according to the desired po-
larity in the output. The Z terminal is tied to the output to close
the feedback loop around the op amp (see Figure 1). The offset
adjust V

is optional and is adjusted when both inputs are zero
volts to obtain zero out, or to buck out other system offsets.

as it might eliminate the need for an additional inverter somewhere
else.

Figure 13. Divider Connection
The AD532 can be configured as a two-quadrant divider by
connecting the multiplier cell in the feedback loop of the op
amp and using the Z terminal as a signal input, as shown in
Figure 13. It should be noted, however, that the output error is
given approximately by 10 V
m
/(X

X

), where
m
is the total
error specification for the multiply mode; and bandwidth by
f
m
(X
1
X
2
)/10 V, where f
m
is the bandwidth of the multiplier.
Further, to avoid positive feedback, the X input is restricted to
negative values. Thus for single-ended negative inputs (0 V to
10 V), connect the input to X and the offset null to X
2
; for
single-ended positive inputs (0 V to +10 V), connect the input
to X
2
and the offset null to X
1
. For optimum performance, gain
(S.F.) and offset (X
0
) adjustments are recommended as shown
and explained in Table I.
For practical reasons, the useful range in denominator input is

Figure 14. Square Rooter Connection
The connections for square root mode are shown in Figure 14.
Similar to the divide mode, the multiplier cell is connected in
the feedback of the op amp by connecting the output back to
both the X and Y inputs. The diode D
1
is connected as shown
to prevent latch-up as Z

/10 V. As shown in Figure 15, the
AD532 is configured in the square mode, with a simple unity
gain inverter connected between one of the signal inputs (Y)
and one of the inverting input terminals (Y

) of the multiplier.
The inverter should use precision (0.1%) resistors or be other-
wise trimmed for unity gain for best accuracy.
