An experienced circuit-design EE once clarified his view of the hierarchy of IC-vendor design support: High-performance, feature-rich ICs were good, application circuits were better, but complete ...

This application note provides several filter topologies that address the concerns. The following analog input buffers have been divided into four categories: fully differential, single-ended to ...

A current sensor with PWM output is a very useful type of device. Traditionally, the device can serve in a digital application where the host microcontroller can determine the ratio of the on-time to ...

In a balanced op-amp circuit, the op-amp inputs see equal impedances looking into the circuit. Balanced circuits provide better performance by cancelling some input errors and have a simple R F /R I ...

Confused by analog-to-digital converter specifications? Here's a primer to help you decipher them and make the right decisions for your project. Although manufacturers use common terms to describe ...

In our previous two issues, we discussed troubleshooting digital output modules. Troubleshooting analog modules is a bit more complicated, for two reasons: Analog modules aren't on/off, as digital ...

The standard analog input for a PC monitor is the Video Graphics Array connection. As technology has developed, many PC monitors have been manufactured accommodate multiple input standards. While VGA ...
