If you are building a single-supply, 12-bit SAR-ADC system, such as a multiplexed circuit, handheld meter, data logger, automotive systems, or some other monitoring system, you probably will require ...

A few months ago, I wrote a Signal Chain Basics article titled “3 considerations when selecting an op amp.” While that article is very useful for selecting operational amplifiers (op amps) for new ...

If you’re designing a linear circuit of any kind today, it most likely involves an op amp and even an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The op amp is your go-to device simply because it can be ...

Modeling the performance of an analog device with SPICE is one of the standard techniques used by circuit designers to perform initial characterization and performance analysis before putting together ...

The operational amplifier, or op amp, is one of the most basic building blocks used in analog circuits. Ever since single-chip op amps were introduced in the 1960s, thousands of different types have ...

When shopping for amplifiers, power per channel is just one specification or spec you'll want to scope out, if not the most important one. There are more specs you'll need to inspect. A spec of 50 ...
