Analog Engine Selector
A side by side comparison of the features and specifications of our Analog Engine dynamic processor ICs.
4320 Compressor Demo Board - The THAT 4320 Demonstration System (US$150) allows the engineer to test the performance of a THAT4320 quickly and easily. The 4320 Demo Board is self-contained circuit board with XLR connectors for signal input and output and a 3-pin header for connection to an external regulated DC power supply (not included). See the 4320 Demo Board Datasheet for more information.
4320 Surface Mount Adapter Board - For our integrated circuits which are only available in surface mount packages THAT Corporation offers adapter boards which allow one of these surface-mount ICs to interface to a circuit board via traditional thru-hole mounting. These adapters make it easy for a design engineer to evaluate our surface-mount products on a prototype board without having to employ SMT technology. Adapter boards are available to qualified applicants.
Harsh Environment Packaging - TT Semiconductor repackages THAT Corporation’s IC products in ruggidized plastic for the medical, aerospace, defense, and heavy industrial marketplaces.
The History of VCAs - THAT Blackmer® VCAs are the successors to the original dbx® line of VCAs. Their development for professional audio use has a long history, and can provide some insight into the care and feeding of these essential devices.
