I have a switched mode power supply background and an looking at something like this for an old school audio amp design. https://www.circuitstoday.com/push-pull-amplifier For SMPS pushpull we always used current mode control to assure the flux in the core does not walk all the way into saturation. Looking at these designs, none monitor or measure the current to assure the flux

Nanoamp calibrator again

So, I had a chance to get back to that calibration gizmo for my biochip front end amplifier (1 nA at the shot noise limit in a 100-MHz BW). It turns out that it's possible to do a very nice job, assuming that the integration cap (C1 in the schematic) has zero inductance, but as much as 0.05 nH blows it out of the water. (Should have thought of that, of course, but oh well.) Try running ...

I still have a skeleton in the cupboard and the current lock down seems fine to bury it for good. Let there be an amplifier consisting of one or more CS input JFETs, an optional cascode, an op amp for plenty loop gain and feedback into the source. Everybody and his dog does this, but it has a drawback: it is not stable. If you measure into the input, you see a capacitance in series wit...

I'm looking into low-light detection using MPPC's and I am testing using the Hamamatsu C12332-01 evaluation module.

Something has occurred to me, and I was wondering if anyone knew more about this. Could a CMOS logic inverter, like a 4049, be used as a very high gain amplifier if it were properly biased? I figured that the DC offset should be set at just about half the supply voltage, so that the gate was always between a '1' and a '0'. I am not sure if the gate would behave linearly in that region, or...

So, JL's thread about level shifting a pHEMT switch brings up another issue: stabilizing the silly things. I have this little SKY65050 preamp that works very well--about a nanoamp of input current, 0.5 nV/sqrt(Hz) noise in the flatband, 0.8 pF Cin, flat from DC to about 120 MHz where the THS3091 second stage craps out. A very nice amplifier, but for the intended use, it could stand a bit ...

I have an audio amplifier circuit that uses an op amp I can't buy anymore because of the semiconductor shortage. It's not extremely special, but it drives highly capacitive loads (like a few hundred feet of cable) and will drive a 62.1 ohm load with 75 mA. I'd actually like a higher drive, but this was the best I could find in 2008 when I designed it and I've found nothing better

I'm designing a power amplifier using some Exicon lateral MOSFETs as the final common-source stage. These will be used in various experimental systems. Each only needs to run around +/-50V out, up to 4A, and driving sinusoidally between 50 and 400kHz. The load can be approximated as a lossy series LC circuit, driven near resonance with R generally 10-20 ohms. There's an additional > 200

I dont really want to chop it first and have more LV elec...
