ANALOG TRAINING AND SEMINARS


December 14th Analog eLab: Voltage Feedback or Curent Feedback Op Amps in High-Speed Applications: Pros, Cons and Design Tricks. Over the past 10 years, a wide range of high-speed amplifiers have emerged to support the needs of high-frequency design applications. Two particular types of amplifiers have found wide application; the current feedback amplifier and the more common voltage feedback amplifier. Each of these devices has particular applications for which they are best suited. In this eLab we will explore the differences between these devices, namely their internal construction, and what that means for the external application circuit.

Additionally, several key performance characteristics and design tricks will be illustrated using lab equipment similar to that used in characterizing these devices. Look for an informative discussion into pulse response, slew rate, full-power bandwidth, bandwidth control and distortion measurement.

TI Developer Conference
: The TI Developer Conference will feature the latest technology in high-performance analog, digital signal processing, microcontrollers and more. Tracks include Audio, Communications, Control, Video, Education, Systems and Tools. Registration opens Oct. 4. The conference takes place Feb. 28 to Mar. 2, 2006.


European Portable Power Design Seminar
