Step-by-step approach to building a CTSD modulator loop. Introducing the analog accumulator. A closer look at oversampling and noise shaping. The clock sensitivity of CTSD ADCs. 1. A closed-loop op ...

Did you ever wonder how to calculate the stability of an op amp circuit? Put the wrong compensation network into the feedback loop, and you’re got an attenuator or, worse, an oscillator. It’s not ...

My hands-on introduction to operational amplifiers was in 1969 while in the army as a junior scientist in the Atmospheric Science Laboratory at the White Sands Proving Grounds. We had taken a ...

The very basics of operational amplifiers. Learn comparator, inverting, and non-inverting op-amp configurations. An operational amplifier, or op amp, is a dc-coupled high-gain electronic voltage ...

This article will explain continuous-time sigma-delta (CTSD) ADC technology in a less traditional approach, enabling signal chain designers toenvision a new class of easy to use precision ADC ...
