In the “Say It with Me” series, we’ll take a commonly used concept out of electronics and explain it the best we can. If there’s something that’s been bugging you, or a certain term or concept that ...

As operating speeds increase, the effect of the internal impedance at the input nodes become more critical to achieving the desired frequency response. The most common issues revolve around the common ...

Two very desirable features for a precision measurement system based on an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) are high input impedance and a wide input range, ideally including or extending slightly ...

Though sometimes taken for granted, designers shouldn’t overlook the intricacies of voltage- and current-feedback op amps—integral players in the analog and mixed-signal worlds. Op amps amplify tiny ...

Editor's note: Linear Integrated Systems co-founder, John H. Hall, is an industry veteran who is still hands on when it comes to innovations like the latest JFET, LSK489. Anyone using an electronic ...

I was wandering through the nearby Bestbuy/Unnecessary-Service-Plans-R-Us with my friend this weekend, killing Saturday boredom with mindless browsing. While we were examining some very nice computer ...
