In systems with multiple supply voltages, operational amplifier power supplies must be established simultaneously with, or before, any input signals are applied. If this doesn’t happen, overvoltage ...

Digitizers play a fundamental role in testing state-of-the-art devices for applications such as DVD, DSL, cellular phones, HDTV, and set-top boxes. The digitizer is an option for ATE systems that ...

Circuit simulations are great because you can experiment with circuits and make changes with almost no effort. In Circuit VR, we look at circuits using a simulator to do experiments without having to ...

The source that drives high-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) sees a high-frequency ac load and a dc load of a few hundred ohms or more. Thus, a high-performance op amp with high input ...

Modern op amps have much higher operating bandwidths than their predecessors. These new devices are excellent building blocks that can greatly simplify the design and construction of high-bandwidth ...
