An optimal way to determine an op amp's input capacitance. Steps involved in making the input-capacitance measurement. 1. With a series resistor at the op-amp input, the input capacitance of the op ...

A subject rarely found in circuit design textbooks is the matter of nonlinear junction capacitance, especially reverse-bias junction capacitance, also called depletion capacitance. When it is ...

I ask these types of questions frequently. Do we need another “widget” when everybody and their grandmother makes one of these nowadays? Well, I have not seen any other amplifier that can beat the ...

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 ...

Texas instruments has revealed a buffer amplifier developed especially for oscilloscope inputs from dc to GHz. Texas instruments has revealed a buffer amplifier developed especially for oscilloscope ...

A unique design flexibility that can either extend the maximum operating frequency of a power amplifier or allow the use of larger active devices with higher power handling capability. This paper ...

As electronics rely more and more on ICs, subtle details about discrete components get lost because we spend less time designing with them. For example, a relay seems like a simple component, but ...
