Op amps are the fundamental building blocks of analog circuits; you can build all analog functions from op amps. Add digital output circuitry to an op amp to get a comparator that can also function as ...

Editor’s note: Here’s an oldie but goodie. EDN editors regularly field requests for copies of articles that predate our online archive, but this Design Idea from our Feb 20, 1986, issue has generated ...

Analog Devices has announced what it claims to be the industry's first precision instrumentation amplifier designed and manufactured specifically for high temperature applications. According to the ...

An instrumentation amplifier with ultra low noise, low power and low distortion has been introduced by Analog Devices. The AD8429 is designed for the precise measurement of small signals present in ...

[John Miller] has the perfect response next time he complains about an ache or pain and one of his friends says, “You should listen to your body!” As you can see in the video below, he already does.

Picking up where we left off in Part 1, we need to explore some methods to mitigate problems caused by unpredictable ground currents.

Figure 1 shows a benign means of interfacing a low-level, wideband differential signal to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The FET input stage (AD8066) draws only 6 pA of input bias current and ...

Given the very credible performance of large-scale analog front-end ICs that combine signal conditioning, analog-to-digital conversion, and more, as well as availability of so many high-performance op ...
