VisualDSP++ is an easy-to-install and easy-to-use integrated software development and debugging environment (IDDE) that enables efficient management of projects from start to finish from within a ...

Op amps are very high gain amplifiers with differential inputs and single-ended outputs. They are often used in high precision analog circuits, so it is important to measure their performance ...

Comparator ICs are designed to compare the voltages that appear at their inputs and to output a voltage representing the sign of the net difference between them. In a comparator circuit, if the ...

Q. I've just been reading datasheets of some recently released Analog Devices log amps and I'm still a little confused about what exactly a log amp does. A. You're not alone. Over the years, I have ...

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) is one of the most widely used interfaces between microcontroller and peripheral ICs such as sensors, ADCs, DACs, shift registers, SRAM, and others. This article ...

Even with the widespread use of rail-to-rail single supply op amps, there is still often the requirement for dual rails (for example, ±15 V) to be generated from a single (positive) input power rail ...

An effective method for filtering high frequency power supply noise and cleanly sharing similar voltage supply rails (that is, analog and digital rails for mixed-signal ICs) while preserving high ...

The thermocouple is a simple, widely used component for measuring temperature. This article provides a basic overview of thermocouples, describes common challenges encountered when designing with them ...

This applications note introduces a novel and tested topology for boost converters with moderately high boost ratios (such as 10:1 to 50:1). This topology overcomes many of the disadvantages presented ...

Low-dropout regulators (LDOs) are deceptively simple devices that provide critical functions such as isolating a load from a dirty source or creating a low-noise source to power sensitive circuitry.
