The objective of this project was to design a two stage operational amplifier to meet a list of given specifications using the TSMC 0.18 micron short channel process. All bias voltages were generated ...

Targeting use in portable-system applications that require raising a battery's voltage to a higher level, IC boost regulators often include output transistors that can drive storage inductors. However ...

Most of us have seen some incredible innovations in the world of power electronics. It’s hard to cite where “Mark Twain” is in the river of power semiconductors. But if we simply pick the 2N3055, a 60 ...

This fortnight's exposition of Design Ideas kicks off with another application of the cascode circuit. An earlier Design Idea used a cascode-connected MOSFET in a boost regulator, while this one ...

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 ...
