The bipolar junction transistor (BJT)-pair emitter-coupled differential-amplifier circuit is a familiar amplifier stage in the repertoire of analog designers, but has an interesting complication. This ...

Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and junction diodes; junction field effect ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Fundamental concepts in electronics. Diode, BJT and FET Circuits; design using ideal operational amplifiers; feedback; frequency response; biasing; current sources and mirrors; ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Use of differential signaling in analog front ends is increasing across a range of applications, from audio processing to factory automation.

Over on his YouTube channel [Aaron Danner] explains biasing transistors with current sources in the 29th video of his Transistors Series. In this video, he shows how to replace a bias resistor (and ...

Fig 1. This basic source-follower circuit is the kind of amplifier you would find in an electric bass guitar amplifier. R6 provides the feedback. On the other hand, low-distortion applications require ...
