Many applications call for wide-range-tunable LC oscillators that can deliver a nearly constant-frequency, nearly harmonic-free output even when the circuit's output load changes. From a design ...

We wish that all the beautiful animations that are available today to understand math and electronics had been around when we were in school. Nonetheless, they are there for today’s students and ...

Everyone interested in analog electronics should find some value in this post. Of course, an effort has been made here to make the content understandable to relative newbies. Forget about complex ...

Sponsored by: Texas Instruments. A phase-locked loop, of course. A PLL frequency synthesizer plays a key role in delivering the precision and accuracy demanded by many applications. The master timing ...

Many people who get analog electronics still struggle a bit to design oscillators. Even common simulators often need a trick to simulate some oscillating circuits. The Barkhausen criteria state that ...

Dubbed Si500, “it generates any frequency from 900kHz to 200MHz and phase jitter is 2ps(RMS) maximum, 1.5ps typical”, said the firm. Period jitter at 100MHz is typically under 0.8ps. Silicon Labs has ...
