Analog-filter designs manage an uncommonly large number of core parameters compared with designs of other analog-circuit-block types. First, the application usually suggests the overall spectral shape ...

Many analog signal-chain circuits require ac-coupling to eliminate unwanted dc voltages or offsets. The simplest means to ac-couple is to use a capacitor in series with the signal path, thus forming a ...

Analog filter design remains a cornerstone of modern signal processing, instrumental in a vast array of applications spanning telecommunications, instrumentation, and biomedical engineering. Recent ...

Voltage conveyors and current conveyors represent two pivotal active building blocks in contemporary analog circuit design. Their unique signal processing capabilities allow for efficient voltage ...

Many sensors have a small analog signal that rides on top of a larger dc pedestal. For these circuits (Fig. 1), the signal must be ac coupled and amplified before it’s digitized. The feedback of an ...

For many analog-to-digital converter (ADC) applications, a simple passive resistor/capacitor (RC) filter at the buffer input will provide adequate antialiasing filtering. However, an active filter is ...

All analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have a certain amount ofinput-referred noise. In most cases,less input noise is better. There are some cases, however, where inputnoise can actually be helpful ...

This article explores key mixed-signal applications, highlighting the difference between signal-path faults and rail-driven ...
