LM1818 Electronically Switched Audio Tape System
General Description
The LM1818 is a linear integrated circuit containing all of the
active electronics necessary for building a tape recorder
deck (excluding the bias oscillator) The electronic functions
on the chip include a microphone and playback preamplifi-
er record and playback amplifiers a meter driving circuit
and an automatic input level control circuit The IC features
complete internal electronic switching between the record
and playback modes of operation The multipole switch
used in previous systems to switch between record and
playback modes is replaced by a single pole switch thereby
allowing for more flexibility and reliability in the recorder de-
