Characterizing SSBW for VFAs and FDAs. What's hiding in some fully differential amplifiers? Measuring response shape and harmonic distortion. Adding an input common-mode control loop to a legacy FDA.

How analog signal engineering is performed, in broad strokes. What are the component-selection considerations for new designs? What are VFAs and how are they used? Analog signal engineers specialize ...

Mixed-signal ICs used in cellphones, DVD players, HDTVs, and set-top boxes require analog signal measurements during production. Therefore, the automated test equipment (ATE) systems used to test such ...

In Part 2 we related the impact on signal quality to some possible real-world basic signal and shield grounding choices (both the good and the bad). But, even in that brief discussion, it is clear ...

If you want to extract a signal from a huge amount of noise, a lock-in amplifier is the ideal tool. But when it comes to buying one, doing your homework first can avoid a costly mistake, advises ...
