World's leading amplifier supplier ushers in new era of signal conditioning technology. Analog Devices, a global provider in high-performance semiconductors for signal processing applications, today ...

We all know what distortion sounds like. We’ve heard it in heavy metal tunes, cheap iPod docks and the crummy speakers at Taco Bell drive-thrus. And we’ve all read distortion specs on things like ...

For data converters, the frequencies produced by harmonic distortion are somewhat more complicated to calculate. Although the distortion product frequencies for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and ...

Distortion comes in a huge range of slightly different forms, from subtle analogue warmth to extreme metal fuzz, mild digital imprecision to eardrum-bursting clipping. But what is distortion, what's ...

Fig 1. Two analog multipliers form a VCO with quadrature outputs, while a third multiplier provides AGC to stabilize output voltages without adding distortion. Fig 2. The oscilloscope trace of the VCO ...

While many op amps can claim either low noise or low distortion, the AD8099 high-speed op amp promises both. It specifies a voltage noise of 0.95 nV/vHz and a distortion of -90 dB at 10 MHz. Analog ...

If you think you need more saturation and distortion plugins, try this technique first: a seemingly infinite range of distortion colours can be created from even the simplest of distortion plugins, ...
