In the “Say It with Me” series, we’ll take a commonly used concept out of electronics and explain it the best we can. If there’s something that’s been bugging you, or a certain term or concept that ...

When used with other blocks and modules, a new approach to modeling operational-amplifier output impedance behavior can provide a more realistic overall behavioral model. Simulating the behavior of a ...

Though sometimes taken for granted, designers shouldn’t overlook the intricacies of voltage- and current-feedback op amps—integral players in the analog and mixed-signal worlds. Op amps amplify tiny ...

It’s common practice to series-terminatean op amp to match theimpedance of the load. This practicecauses a 3-dB loss of output power in thetermination resistance, however (Figure1). Newer op amps ...

From the micromixer topology by Barrie Gilbert [1], this amplifier allows a single-ended input to be converted to a Class A/B current output from a single supply. Wow the engineering world with your ...

I was wandering through the nearby Bestbuy/Unnecessary-Service-Plans-R-Us with my friend this weekend, killing Saturday boredom with mindless browsing. While we were examining some very nice computer ...
