The literature on power amplifiers frequently discusses the importance of power-supply rejection in audio amplifiers, particularly in reference to its possible effects on distortion [4]! I have (I ...

Ex-movie theater projectionist Steve Guttenberg has also worked as a high-end audio salesman, and as a record producer. Steve reviewed audio products for CNET and worked as a freelance writer for ...

Originally, operational amplifiers (op amps) were not thought of as candidates for RF design, but the advent of newer, faster devices has now made them an attractive option for some applications. The ...

What every RF design engineer needs these days is a good all-purpose IC RF amplifier. You don’t want to have to design basic circuits like this yourself. Yet the need is always there for a gain block ...

If you ever wanted to build your own tube amplifier but you were intimidated by working with high voltages, [Marcel]’s low-voltage tube amp design might spark your interest. The design operates with a ...

Bob Pease holding court at the Analog Seminar in 2003. When I was doing the National Semiconductor Analog Seminar with Bob Pease back in 2003 (Fig. 1), I gave a talk about rail-to-rail amplifiers. I ...

1. Is Amplifier Weight an Indicator of Robust Amplifier Design? You have to find out if the amplifier is a Class A/B analog amp or a Class D digital amplifier before you can generalize about weight ...

It is essential to use a combination of specialized and general CAD tools in RF and microwave solid-state power amplifier design. June 17th, 2020 - By: Wolfspeed, a Cree Company In the world of RF and ...

If you already know about class A, B, and AB, they are all linear amplifiers with constant gain where the audio is fed to the base of a transistor. The latest class D audio amplifier is switch type ...
