Although current-feedback operational amplifiers (op amps) have been on the market since the 1990s, the current-feedback fully differential amplifier was not introduced until 2007. There are several ...

An electronic circuit that amplifies the difference between two voltages. With one regular input and one inverting input (+ becomes -, - becomes +), it multiplies the difference by a constant factor.

Here is a close look at the common- versus differential-mode voltage and instrumentation amplifier (IA) topologies.

A research group succeeded in developing the world's thinnest and lightest differential amplifier for bioinstrumentation. Conventionally, bioinstrumentation circuits for health care and medical use ...

In the past, the term instrumentation amplifier (INA) was often misused, referring to the application rather than the device’s architecture. INAs are related to op amps, in that they’re based on the ...

Accurately measuring current flow is a standard requirement in several applications (Fig. 1). Depending on the specific need, the options available to designers can include discrete designs assembled ...

One of my first jobs as a freshly minted graduate engineer involved the maintenance of a set of analogue chart recorders. They were museum pieces by the early 1990s: a motorized roll of graph paper ...

The all-in-one Dynamics 4290 accelerometer/microphone and differential amplifier has both constant current operation and DC/AC amplification, automatic calibration ...

If you’re the sort who finds beauty in symmetry – and I’m not talking about your latest PCB layout – then you’ll appreciate this clever take on the long-tailed pair. [Kevin]’s video on this topic ...

The research group in this study developed the world’s thinnest and lightest signal amplifier for bioinstrumentation and demonstrated high-precision monitoring of electrocardiac signals with reduced ...
