The main circuits composing this system provide the
pre-emphasis, de-emphasis,
VCA
(Voltage Controlled
Attenuator or Amplifier),
RMS
(Root Mean Square)
action, level sensor, etc. (Refer to Fig. 6-8). Each
circuit
will
be
described below:

INPUT FILTER (HPF)
This filter, which
is
a high-pass filter (HPF)
of
about
20
Hz
cutoff (fcut) frequency and
-12
dB/oct slope,
is
formed by a positive feedback active filter. Here,
the filter
is
made into an active filter using a
transistor to improve the shoulder characteristic
of
the filter and
to
act
as
a buffer to eliminate the
effect
of
following circuits due to their impedance
characteristics. (Refer to Figs.
6-9
and 6-10)
