Overview
The LA70001 and LA70001M ICs provide record and playback amplifiers for VHS format VCRs. A system with an adjustment-free Y/C record current can be achieved by combining the LA70001/M with an LA71000M or LA71500M video signal processing IC.

Features
• Direct connection of the head to the playback amplifier input allows the number of external devices to be reduced.
• A fixed-current drive technique that is strongly resistant to load fluctuations is adopted in the record amplifier for stable recording characteristics. The record amplifier includes a built-in AGC circuit.
• These products have the same package dimensions as the LA70011 and LA70011M to allow a common PCB to be used. These products can also share the same PCB with the LA70020 by mounting the IC at the right end of the LA70020 socket.
