Semiconductor companies have now had fully-differential amplifiers in their product lines for a few years, though these amplifiers have been in leading-edge electronics for decades. These diff-amps ...

Logical- and physical-synthesis tools have revolutionized digital-ASIC design over the past decade, increasing chip functions and designer productivity. However, many of today's SOC (system-on-chip) ...

Design analysis of the K2-W Vacuum Tube Op Amp’s design and operation reveals the mad science that created a commercial revolution in 1950s and 1960s analog computing. Op amps played a critical role ...

The development of low noise amplifiers (LNAs) in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology has been at the forefront of modern wireless communication research. CMOS LNAs are integral ...

If you’re the sort who finds beauty in symmetry – and I’m not talking about your latest PCB layout – then you’ll appreciate this clever take on the long-tailed pair. [Kevin]’s video on this topic ...
