A tough challenge for test engineers is explored in terms of test methods, pitfalls, and measurement errors. For the test engineer, RF and microwave power amplifier testing imposes unique challenges.

As you sit down to select the proper operational amplifier for your circuit, the first order of business is to determine the signal bandwidth that your system will send through that amplifier. Once ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. When designing filters, engineers very often need to know what the filtered value at the output will be. This is ...

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 ...

Just today I read on an internet forum a post by a "hot" new manufacturer of class D amplifiers saying that "the only way to solve the interference problem is to put the amplifier in a completely ...

If these signals exhibit a simple, periodic waveform, such as with sine, square, or triangular waves, the generators are called function generators. They are often used to check the function of ...
