About this manual

The BA3308F (and FV variant) is a dual preamplifier designed for stereo radio, cassette recorders and other audio applications. It features an on‑chip ALC rectifier, a power‑supply mute circuit to suppress pop noise on power‑on, and does not require an input coupling capacitor.

The device operates from 4.5 V to 14 V supply, draws low quiescent current, and provides a high voltage gain of 80 dB with low distortion (0.1 % THD) and low input noise (1 µV rms). It is offered in SOP14 and SSOP‑B14 packages and includes detailed application circuits for both recording and playback modes.
