An SoC-like design model for the analog world? - Planet Analog
2024年11月18日 · Is the system-on-chip (SoC) model that emerged in the semiconductor industry more than two decades ago seeping into the analog world? It seems like that when you take a closer look at onsemi’s recently announced Treo platform. It’s an analog and mixed-signal platform built with bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) process technology on a 65-nm node.
Innovation tackles the automobile’s “antenna-farm” dilemma
2024年10月17日 · When radios were first introduced into cars in the early 1930s (thank you, Motorola) they were basic AM-band units. Power came from the 6-V car battery (12 volts did not become standard until the early 1950s) and that modest DC voltage was stepped up for the needed plate voltage by the vacuum tubes by first chopping it into a square wave via a buzzing vibrator, passing it through a transformer ...
Why 45 degrees? An overview of loop stability in operational …
2024年11月26日 · In operational amplifier stability, one rule of thumb is to allow 45 degrees of phase margin. Other design guidelines state that 60 degrees is best; still others say that 30 degrees is sufficient.
Matching in Analog Layout
2014年5月20日 · Analog circuits often use structures like differential pairs and current mirrors, where the matching of device characteristics such as the threshold voltage V t is important. Circuits using these structures with device threshold differences of a few millivolts or less can determine the performance and yield of a design.
