We recently took a long look at electromagnetic interference (EMI) and how to combat this type of noise. The solution—the so-called instrumentation amplifier—is yet to come. But before we can get ...

When you must measure a differential signal, perhaps from a thermocouple or bridge, the two signal wires will also pick up some unwanted signals. In a lab environment, those signals may appear ...

Modern measurement systems often operate with single 5-V power supplies, yet their input signals may have large common-mode voltages that exceed the supply by tens or hundreds of volts. Also, unless ...

The MAX9918/MAX9919/MAX9920 are single-supply, high-accuracy current-sense amplifiers with a high input common-mode range that extends from -20V to +75V. These amplifiers are well suited for current ...

One of the most common challenges that board- and system-level engineers face in designing an amplifier driver for a precision successive approximation register (SAR) is optimizing the effective ...
