  1. A short while back, I published a design idea ( Ref. 1 ) that uses a single linear pot to control the gain of a high performance OP37 decompensated op-amp over an unusually wide ( 30 dB to +60 dB) range. Figure 1 shows the circuit. Figure 1. ...

  2. In many applications, there are requirements of low power, high performance differential amplifiers to convert small differential signals to a readable ground referenced output signal. Input voltages at two inputs usually share a large common-mode ...

  1. Many applications require special differential amplifiers that achieve both high performance and low power dissipation. A simple solution is to use a dual non-inverting precision amplifier with a resistive gain network, but the DC common-mode level ...

  2. Intrinsically capacitive transducers and other high-impedance signal sources usually require ac coupling and a buffer amplifier to condition the signal for further processing. Buffers take many forms, but most of them compromise signal quality ...

  3. Figure 1 shows a chopped amplifier that requires only 5.5 µA supply current. Offset Voltage is 5 µV, with 0.05 µV/ C drift. A gain exceeding 10 8 affords high accuracy, even at large closed-loop gains. Figure 1. 0.05 µV/ C ...

  4. Digitally controlled gain is an everyday analog-design element. You frequently find this element in an op-amp-based, transimpedance current-to-voltage converter. When you design digital gain control into such a converter, the usual scheme is to ...

  5. A good manually adjusted audio gain stage is characterized by: Low noise and low distortion, A 20 kHz bandwidth, A wide gain adjustment range (e.g. 90 dB), and Logarithmic (at least pseudo-logarithmic) control characteristic to Efficiently span ...

  6. The need for conditioning low-level ac signals in the presence of both common-mode noise and differential dc voltage prevails in many applications. In such situations, ac-coupling to instrumentation and difference amplifiers is mandatory to extract ...

  7. Self-powered isolation amplifiers, which need no external isolated power supply, provide versatile and convenient interfaces in many applications that require galvanic isolation of the signal source. Examples of such applications include circuits ...

  8. The advent of instrumentation amplifiers with digital gain switching offers obvious advantages, such as board-space saving, higher reliability because of fewer solder joints, and lower total cost. These valuable features stem from the fact that the ...
