From the point of view of the power supply the audio amplifiers are generally of two types. The first type is used mainly in applications with a single power supply. Some can be used with a dual power ...

In a signal-conditioning op-amp application there are a number of different approaches to take—what noise and SFDR advantages might one offer over another. In designing an input stage for an analog-to ...

Most everyone that has ever purchased an external amplifier is at least familiar with the term voltage gain. Simply, it is the degree to which an amplifier actually ...

The simple-in-theory, but harder-to-implement, resistor-based current-sensing challenge is eased by a precision amplifier. Using a resistor and voltage amplifier across it for current sensing presents ...

Last session, we use the cheap and cheerful 4046 Phase-locked Loop chip as a simple voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). It was dead simple, in fact, because the chip has a VCO already built in. There ...

At only $1,499 USD, the Naim CI-Uniti 102 feels like a streamlined Uniti Atom in a pair of skinny jeans. Depending on how many sources you still use and the size of your listening space, the Naim ...

ISSCC, the International Solid-state circuits conference, is the IEEE’s annual showcase for all that is best in on-chip circuit design from across the globe. Thousands of engineers will flock there ...

THE properties of the amplifier to be described are entirely due to the type of transistor used, and the purpose of this communication is to report on its suitability for the amplification of ...

Table 1 gives some of the power audio amplifiers (PAAs) that are appropriate for voltage splitters (VSs). We should make short notes about some features of the PAAs and op amps (OAs) used in VSs. That ...
