Measuring microamps & milliamps at 3 MHz bandwidth

Recently I needed to actually “see” a current waveform in the 100 uA to 5 mA range with at least a couple MHz bandwidth.  This extremely expensive probe would have been perfect, but instead I built something similar for about $30 using the amazing Analog Devices AD8428 amplifier. Click “Read more” for details and a […]

Hybrid Headphone Amplifier

Potentially, headphone listening can be technically superior since room reflections are eliminated and the intimate contact between transducer and ear mean that only tiny amounts of power are required. The small power requirement means that transducers can be operated at a small fraction of their full excursion capabilities thus reducing THD and other non-linear distortions.

How to Select the Best Audio Amplifier for Your Design

Introduction An audio amplifier increases the amplitude of a small signal to a useful level, all the while maintaining the smaller signal’s detail. This is known as linearity. The greater the amplifier linearity, the more the output signal is a true representation of the input. With the ever-changing performance requirements for amplifiers in the audio

Analog Devices’ 120-Milliwatt ADC Driver Features Industry’s Best Distortion Performance and Lowest Power Consumption at 70 MHz : New differential amplifier drives 14- and 16-bit ADCs in communications and high-speed instrumentation applications

NORWOOD, Mass. (PRWEB) June 11, 2008 The ADA4939 can be used in either differential-to-differential or single-ended-to-differential configurations. An internal common-mode feedback loop allows the user to independently adjust the ADA4939 output common-mode level to match the input common mode voltage of the ADC, and at the same time achieve exceptional output balance and suppression of
