▲The '''LM13700''' series consists of two current controlled [[operational transconductance amplifier]]s (OTA), each having differential inputs and a push-pull output. The LM13700 is like a standard [[op-amp]]: each has a pair of differential inputs and a single output, but an [[OTA]] is voltage in and current out rather than voltage in and voltage out; and OTAs are programmable via the IABC pin. Linearizing diodes at the input reduce distortion and allow increased input levels. The darlington output buffers provided are specifically designed to complement the wide dynamic range of the OTA. This chip is very useful in audio electronics especially in [[analog synthesizer]] circuits like [[voltage controlled oscillator]]s, [[voltage controlled filter]]s, and [[voltage controlled amplifier]]s. The darlington output buffers on the LM13700 are different from those on the LM13600 in that their bias currents (and hence their output DC levels) are independent of IABC pin. This usually results in performance superior to that of the LM13600 in audio applications.
