GENERAL DESCRIPTION
LIMITING
REGION
LIMITING
The SSM2167 is a complete and flexible solution for conditioning
microphone inputs in personal electronics and computer audio
systems. It is also excellent for improving vocal clarity in communi-
cations and public address systems. A low noise voltage controlled
amplifier (VCA) provides a gain that is dynamically adjusted by a
control loop to maintain a set compression characteristic. The
compression ratio is set by a single resistor and can be varied from
1:1 to over 10:1 relative to the fixed rotation point. Signals above
the rotation point are limited to prevent overload and to eliminate
“popping.” A downward expander (noise gate) prevents amplifica-
tion of background noise or hum. This results in optimized signal
levels prior to digitization, thereby eliminating the need for addi-
tional gain or attenuation in the digital domain. The flexibility of
setting the compression ratio and the time constant of the level
detector, coupled with two values of rotation point, make the
SSM2167 easy to integrate in a wide variety of microphone
conditioning applications.

Theory of Operation
The typical transfer characteristic for the SSM2167 is shown in
Figure 1 where the output level in dB is plotted as a function of
the input level in dB. The dotted line indicates the transfer
characteristic for a unity-gain amplifier. For input signals in the
range of VDE (Downward Expansion) to VRP (Rotation Point)
an “r” dB change in the input level causes a 1 dB change in the
output level. Here, “r” is defined as the “compression ratio.”
The compression ratio may be varied from 1:1 (no compression)
to 10:1 via a single resistor, RCOMP. Input signals above VRP are
compressed with a fixed compression ratio of approximately
10:1. This region of operation is the “limiting region.” Varying
the compression ratio has no effect on the limiting region. The
breakpoint between the compression region and the limiting
region is referred to as the “limiting threshold” or the “rotation
point.” The term “rotation point” derives from the observation
that the straight line in the compression region “rotates” about
this point on the input/output characteristic as the compression
ratio is changed.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The SSM2167 is a complete microphone signal conditioning
system on a single integrated circuit. Designed primarily for
voice band applications, this integrated circuit provides amplifi-
cation, limiting, variable compression, and noise gate. User
adjustable compression ratio, noise gate threshold, and two
different fixed gains optimize circuit operation for a variety of
applications. The SSM2167 also features a low power shutdown
mode for battery-powered applications.
The gain of the system with an input signal level of VRP is the
“fixed gain,” 18 dBV for the SSM2167-1 and 8 dBV for the
SSM2167-2, regardless of the compression ratio.
Input signals below VDE are downward-expanded; that is, a –1 dB
change in the input signal level causes approximately a –3 dB
change in the output level. As a result, the gain of the system is
small for very small input signal levels, even though it may be
quite large for small input signals just above of VDE. The external
resistor at Pin 7, RGATE, is used to set the downward expansion

Finally, the SSM2167 provides an active low, CMOS-compatible
digital power-down feature that will reduce device supply current
to typically less than 2 A.

Figure 3 illustrates the block diagram of the SSM2167. The audio
input signal is processed by the input buffer and then by the VCA.
The input buffer presents an input impedance of approximately
100 kΩ to the source. A dc voltage of approximately 1.5 V is
present at INPUT (Pin 5 of the SSM2167), requiring the use of a
blocking capacitor (C1) for ground-referenced sources. A 0.1 µF
capacitor is a good choice for most audio applications. The input
buffer is a unity-gain stable amplifier that can drive the low imped-
ance input of the VCA and an internal rms detector.

The VCA is a low distortion, variable-gain amplifier whose gain
is set by the side-chain control circuitry. An external blocking
capacitor (C2) must be used between the buffer’s output and
the VCA input. The 1 kΩ impedance between amplifiers determines
the value of this capacitor, which is typically between 4.7 µF and
10 µF. An aluminum electrolytic capacitor is an economical choice.
The VCA amplifies the input signal current flowing through C2
and converts this current to a voltage at the SSM2167’s output pin
(Pin 9). The net gain from input to output can be as high as 40 dB
for the SSM2167-1 and 30 dB for the SSM2167-2, depending on
the gain set by the control circuitry.

The output impedance of the SSM2167 is typically less than 145 Ω,

The bandwidth of the SSM2167 is quite wide at all gain settings.
The upper 3 dB point is over 1 MHz at gains as high as 30 dB.
The GBW plots are shown in TPC 3. The lower 3 dB cutoff
frequency of the SSM2167 is set by the input impedance of
the VCA (1 kΩ) and C2. While the noise of the input buffer is
fixed, the input-referred noise of the VCA is a function of gain.
The VCA input noise is designed to be a minimum when the
gain is at a maximum, thereby maximizing the usable dynamic
range of the part.

Level Detector
The SSM2167 incorporates a full-wave rectifier and a patent-
pending, true rms level detector circuit whose averaging time
constant is set by an external capacitor (CAVG) connected to
the AVG CAP pin (Pin 8). For optimal low-frequency operation
of the level detector down to 10 Hz, the value of the capacitor
should be 2.2 µF. Some experimentation with larger values
for CAVG may be necessary to reduce the effects of excessive
low-frequency ambient background noise. The value of the aver-
aging capacitor affects sound quality: too small a value for this
capacitor may cause a “pumping effect” for some signals, while
too large a value can result in slow response times to signal
dynamics. Electrolytic capacitors are recommended here for
lowest cost and should be in the range of 2 µF to 22 µF.

Figure 4. Effect of Varying the Compression Ratio
Setting the Compression Ratio
Changing the scaling of the control signal fed to the VCA causes a
change in the circuit’s compression ratio, “r.” This effect is shown
in Figure 4. Connecting a resistor (RCOMP) between Pin 8 and VDD
sets the compression ratio. Lowering RCOMP gives smaller compres-
sion ratios as indicated in Table I. AGC performance is achieved
with compression ratios between 2:1 and 10:1, and is dependent
on the application. Shorting RCOMP will disable the AGC function,
setting the compression equal to 1:1. If using a compression resis-
tor, using a value greater than 5 kΩ is recommend. If lower than
5 kΩ is used, the device may interpret this as a short, 0 Ω.
The rms detector filter time constant is approximately given by
10 ϫ CAVG milliseconds where CAVG is in µF. This time constant
controls both the steady state averaging in the rms detector as
well as the release time for compression; that is, the time it takes
for the system gain to increase due to a decrease in input signal.
The attack time, the time it takes for the gain to be reduced
because of a sudden increase in input level, is controlled mainly by
internal circuitry that speeds up the attack for large level changes.
This limits overload time to less than 1 ms in most cases.
Table I. Setting Compression Ratio

Value of RCOMP
The performance of the rms level detector is illustrated in TPC 12
for a CAVG of 2.2 µF and TPC 11 for a CAVG of 22 µF. In each of
these photographs, the input signal to the SSM2167 (not shown) is
a series of tone bursts in six successive 10 dB steps. The tone bursts
range from –66 dBV (0.5 mV rms) to –6 dBV (0.5 V rms). As
illustrated in the photographs, the attack time of the rms level
detector is dependent only on CAVG, but the release times are linear
ramps whose decay times are dependent on both CAVG and the
input signal step size. The rate of release is approximately 240 dB/s
for a CAVG of 2.2 µF, and 12 dB/s for a CAVG of 22 µF.

Control Circuitry
VCA GAIN
The output of the rms level detector is a signal proportional to
the log of the true rms value of the buffer output with an added
dc offset. The control circuitry subtracts a dc voltage from this
signal, scales it, and sends the result to the VCA to control the
gain. The VCA’s gain control is logarithmic—a linear change in
control signal causes a dB change in gain. It is this control law
that allows linear processing of the log rms signal to provide the
flat compression characteristic on the input/output characteristic
shown in Figure 1.

(Noise Gate) Threshold

SSM2167
Setting the Noise Gate Threshold (Downward Expansion)
Noise gate threshold is another programmable point using an
external resistor (RGATE) that is connected between Pin 7
(NOISE GATE THRS) and VDD. The downward expansion
threshold may be set between –40 dBV and –55 dBV, as shown
in Table II. The downward expansion threshold is inversely
proportional to the value of this resistance: setting this resistance
to 0 Ω sets the threshold at approximately 10 mV rms (–40 dBV),
whereas a 5 kΩ resistance sets the threshold at approximately
1 mV rms (–55 dBV). This relationship is illustrated in Figure 5.
We do not recommend more than 5 kΩ for the RGATE resistor as
the noise floor of the SSM2167 prevents the noise gate from
being lowered further without causing problems.
Shutdown Feature
The supply current of the SSM2167 can be reduced to under 10 µA
by applying an active LOW, 0 V CMOS compatible input to the
SSM2167’s /SHUTDOWN Pin (Pin 3). In this state, the input
and output circuitry of the SSM2167 will assume a high imped-
ance state; as such, the potentials at the input pin and the output
pin will be determined by the external circuitry connected to the
SSM2167. The SSM2167 takes approximately 200 ms to settle
from a SHUTDOWN to POWER-ON command. For POWER-ON
to SHUTDOWN, the SSM2167 requires more time, typically less
than 1 s. Cycling the power supply to the SSM2167 can result in
quicker settling times: the off-to-on settling time of the SSM2167 is
less than 200 ms, while the on-to-off settling time is less than 1 ms.
The SSM2167 shutdown current is related to both temperature
and voltage.

PC Board Layout Considerations
Noise Gate (dBV)
Value of RGATE
Since the SSM2167 is capable of wide bandwidth operation and
can be configured for as much as 60 dB of gain, special care must
be exercised in the layout of the PC board that contains the IC
and its associated components. The following applications hints
should be considered for the PC board.

The layout should minimize possible capacitive feedback from
the output of the SSM2167 back to its input. Do not run input
and output traces adjacent to each other.
Rotation Point (Limiting)
Input signals above a particular level, “the rotation point,” are
attenuated (limited) by internal circuitry. This feature allows the
SSM2167 to limit the maximum output, preventing clipping of
the following stage, such as a CODEC or ADC. The rotation
point for SSM2167 is set internally to –24 dBV (63 mV rms) for
SSM2167-1 and –20 dBV (100 mV rms) for SSM2167-2.
A single-point (“star”) ground implementation is recommended
in addition to maintaining short lead lengths and PC board runs.
In applications where an analog ground and a digital ground are
available, the SSM2167 and its surrounding circuitry should be
connected to the system’s analog ground. As a result of these
recommendations, wire-wrap board connections and grounding
implementations are to be explicitly avoided.
