Loop analysis of analog and mixed-signal discontinuous systems, such as PLLs, delta-sigma converters, switched-capacitor filters, PWM amplifiers, and switch-mode power supplies, presents a unique ...

In a previous Idea for Design, Anshi Chen outlined a method for analyzing electrical circuits using Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) in a novel way that allowed designers to simply write down the needed ...

After my last Signal Chain Basics article, The basics of op amp loop-stability analysis: A tale of twin loop-gains, I received questions about how to generate the open-loop SPICE simulation curves ...

Engineering labs often have a network analyzer, but few of them include an injection transformer for closed-loop analysis of dc-dc converters. Agilent sells such transformers as test equipment ...

Control loop performance-monitoring software can help to improve loop performance at electric power plants by automatically collecting data, assessing several aspects of loop performance, and ...
