However,

is not limited

TECHNICAL
OUTLINE
Thebasicfunction
of the RG-9
is
to expand
the
level
variations
of the input signal
(see
Fig.5: input-output
transfer
characteristics).
Dueto theexpander
circuit
com_
position,
the inputand output
circuits
arenot necessarily
lin
ear.
The blockdiagram
is
shown
below.
The
circuit
consists
mainly
of a flatfrequency
responsegain
control
amplifier
(GCA)
and
a sensor
section
which
produces
thesignal
to
control
the
gain
of the
gain
control
amplifier.
After
passing
through
the input level
control
and buffer
amplifier,
a
portion
of theinput
signal
goes
to thesensor
section.
At
thesensor
section,
thesignalfirstpasses
through
an
energy
distribution
filter,
which
possesses
aslope
of -6dB/octave
above
and belowa 2.5kHz
center
frequency.
Thiseffec_
tively
reduces
noise
components,
such
asmotor
rumble,
hum and tape hiss,
yielding
only the centerfrequency
component.
At the RG
detector.
a peak
detector
(ripple
cancelling
type)
produces
a DC
output
proportional
tothe
peak
values
of theAC input
signal.
The
output
from
this
RG
detector
becomes
the
gain
control
signalfor the
GCA.
Current
from the sensor
section
determines
the open-
loop
gain
of the
gain
control
amplifier.
The
gain
therefore
increases
as the control currentincreases
in accordance
with the input signal.
The characteristics
of thissignal
undergo
changes
such
asthose
in Fig.
6: input-gain
charac-
teristics.
To provide
this
characteristics,
anNFB (negative
feedback)
circuitreturns
a portionof the GCA
outputto
the input,
andthedynamic
expansion
selector
selects
the
NFB elements
to control the feedback
ratio,therebv
determining
the
total
gain
(Fig.
6).
Left and right
channels
are
mixed
by a blending
resistor
at the sensor
sectioninput,to prevent
excessivegain
difference
between
the channels
from producing
an un-
natural
effect
during
stereo
playback.
