This Design Idea offers a new instrumentation-amplifier topologythat improves ac CMR (common-moderejection). Because it uses discrete amplifiers,you can customize it for the lowestpower, price, noise, ...

Many industrial and medical applications use instrumentation amplifiers (INA) to condition small signals in the presence of large common-mode voltages and DC potentials. The three op amp INA ...

The OP284 is a low noise dual op amp with a bandwidth of 4MHz and rail-to-rail input/output operation. These properties make it ideal for low supply voltage applications such as in a two op amp ...

In the first article about measurement systems we looked at sensors as a way to bring data into a measurement system. I explained that a sensor measures physical quantities which are turned into a ...

Figure 1 shows a benign means of interfacing a low-level, wideband differential signal to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The FET input stage (AD8066) draws only 6 pA of input bias current and ...

How to avoid amplifier output driver saturation when using very low bias current amplifiers with high source impedance sensors, write Jon Munson and Kevin Scott When taking sensor measurements, the ...

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 7. Strain gages and pressure sensors usually are connected in a bridge configuration. These sensors have a typical full-scale ...

The dual approach of digital and analog lock-in amplifier technologies has continued to advance the precise extraction of weak signals from noise-laden environments. These devices are indispensable in ...
