Accurate high-side current sensing is necessary in many applications, including motor control, solenoid control, and power management (for example, dc-to-dc converters and battery monitoring). In such ...

This article provides thermoelectric cooler (TEC) concepts that are necessary to understand before designing a higher power TEC. It explains key Peltier characteristics that limit their cooling ...

Many industries are calling for electronics that can operate reliably in harsh environments, including extremely high temperatures. Traditionally, engineers had to rely on active or passive cooling ...

One common method for determining the tilt or inclination of a system is to integrate the output of a gyroscope. Although this method is straightforward, error ...

Analog Devices offers high performance solutions for both 24 GHz and 77 GHz FMCW radar, targeting many applications including perimeter security, traffic monitoring, speed detection, vital signs ...

Q: ADI has published a lot of information on dealing with capacitive loading and other stability issues in books, such as the amplifier seminar series, in earlier issues of Analog Dialogue, and in ...

High-availability systems, such as servers, network switches, redundant-array-of-independent-disk (RAID) storage, and other forms of communications infrastructure, need to be designed for near-zero ...

Analog Devices high speed (> 50 MHz) current feedback op amps enable you to operate at higher speeds. Current feedback op amps traditionally have wider bandwidths and higher slew rates than voltage ...

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a recording of the electrical activity on the body surface generated by the heart. ECG measurement information is collected by skin electrodes placed at designated ...

An effective method for filtering high frequency power supply noise and cleanly sharing similar voltage supply rails (that is, analog and digital rails for mixed-signal ICs) while preserving high ...

Q: What is a capacitance sensor? A: Capacitance sensors detect a change in capacitance when something or someone approaches or touches the sensor. The technique has been used in industrial ...
