Modern operational amplifiers (op amps) and instrumentation amplifiers (in-amps) provide great benefits to the designer, compared with assemblies of discrete semiconductors. A great many clever, ...

Op amps are very high gain amplifiers with differential inputs and single-ended outputs. They are often used in high precision analog circuits, so it is important to measure their performance ...

VisualDSP++ is an easy-to-install and easy-to-use integrated software development and debugging environment (IDDE) that enables efficient management of projects from start to finish from within a ...

Coilcraft Inc. has been a specialist in the area of wire-wound inductors, filters and transformers for over 70 years. As an innovator and leader in both RF & Power magnetics, Coilcraft has used its ...

High-availability systems, such as servers, network switches, redundant-array-of-independent-disk (RAID) storage, and other forms of communications infrastructure, need to be designed for near-zero ...

This application note provides design and manufacturing guidance in the use of the lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP). The LFCSP is compliant with JEDEC MO220 and MO229 outlines. The LFCSP is a ...

Today’s designs require an increasing number of power rails and supply solutions in electronics systems, with loads ranging from a few mA for standby supplies to over 100A for ASIC voltage regulators.

For a human, experiencing a fall unobserved can be doubly dangerous. The obvious possibility of initial injury may be further aggravated by the possible consequences if treatment is not obtained ...

Many industries are calling for electronics that can operate reliably in harsh environments, including extremely high temperatures. Traditionally, engineers had to rely on active or passive cooling ...

Q. I'm not sure I understand how current-feedback amplifiers work as compared with regular op amps. I've heard that their bandwidth is constant regardless of gain. How does that work? Are they the ...

This application note presents the electrical aspect of the 1-Wire protocol for new and legacy devices. A special section explains how to determine appropriate timing parameters for a network ...

Even with the widespread use of rail-to-rail single supply op amps, there is still often the requirement for dual rails (for example, ±15 V) to be generated from a single (positive) input power rail ...
