Logical- and physical-synthesis tools have revolutionized digital-ASIC design over the past decade, increasing chip functions and designer productivity. However, many of today's SOC (system-on-chip) ...

Why discretes tend to win out over ICs when it comes to designing ‘folded cascode’ charge amplifiers. By Tolga Aydemir Integrated circuits (ICs) are vital in helping to reduce the cost, size and ...

Amplifiers in cascode Configuration and their variations are generally used to overcome Miller Capacitance, improve the small signal gain and output impedance. Increasing number of transistors in ...

Transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) implemented in CMOS technology remain critical components in a wide range of applications, from optical communication systems to sensing and instrumentation. These ...
