Part 1 looks at driving high-performance, high-speed ADCs, and benefits to using an input transformer in a differential inverting amplifier design Part 2 looks at adding an interstage filter between ...

Adding small or even large amounts of saturation doesn’t have to be bad for you, as we explore how to singe your sonics ...

The sources of noise in a signal chain can be either internal or external. Managing noise in the signal chain requires meticulous examination of each circuit in the chain to minimize noise where ...

While many op amps can claim either low noise or low distortion, the AD8099 high-speed op amp promises both. It specifies a voltage noise of 0.95 nV/vHz and a distortion of -90 dB at 10 MHz. Analog ...

A new high-speed operational amplifier greatly minimizes voltage noise and harmonic distortion. The AD8099 features an advanced circuit architecture that enables it to deliver both 0.95 nV/rt Hz ...

We all know what distortion sounds like. We’ve heard it in heavy metal tunes, cheap iPod docks and the crummy speakers at Taco Bell drive-thrus. And we’ve all read distortion specs on things like ...

Your computer's multimedia experience loses a dimension when distortion overtakes your sound and makes audio content unbearable to listen to. When noise affects all of your computer's audio output, ...

Several readers report poor sound quality from the MacBook Pro's speakers. In particular, some readers are reporting that the right speaker outputs distorted or otherwise poor quality audio while the ...
