The following is excerpted from Chapter 8 of “RF Circuit Design, 2e” by Christopher Bowick. Moving up the scale in complexity, we come to the next evolutionary RF architecture: the ...

One of the major challenges in communications system design is to successfully capture signals with adequate fidelity. In order to avoid the effects of blockers, signal distortion, and sensitivity ...

PMOS transistors are less vulnerable to substrate noise since they’re placed in separate wells; designers implement guard rings to attenuate the substrate noise propagation. However, substrate noise ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Recently, an engineer asked for a solution to provide high-side monitoring of a 20-A load with an accurate overcurrent ...
