It’s common practice to series-terminatean op amp to match theimpedance of the load. This practicecauses a 3-dB loss of output power in thetermination resistance, however (Figure1). Newer op amps ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. Many electronic circuits can rapidly shift between a sleep state and full load operation, placing a heavy requirement on the power converter to ...

Any discussion of power integrity includes a great deal of emphasis on the concept of target impedance and flat impedance requirements. But how do we design a voltage regulator module (VRM) ...

When used with other blocks and modules, a new approach to modeling operational-amplifier output impedance behavior can provide a more realistic overall behavioral model. Simulating the behavior of a ...
