There are numerous factors to consider when adding external capacitors to switched-mode power supplies (SMPS). This article will discuss noise, startup, ESR, stability, pre-bias applications, Sense ...
In 2008, Bob Pease exchanged e-mails with Linear Technology’s Mark Thoren, me, and a few other friends. The subject was how an amplifier will oscillate if you put a capacitive load on it. Bob knew ...
The E5394A soft-touch connectorless touch probes offer very low electrical loading for the company's logic analyzers. They require no adapter and reduce capacitive loading by 80% compared with other ...
Oscillation and peaking occur primarily when op amps that are not properly compensated are used to drive large capacitive loads. The other results from this situation are lower bandwidth and lower ...
Op amps are generally pretty easy to apply, but there are some practical nonideal behaviors you have to keep in mind. [EEforEveryone] takes a test board with some 2X amplifiers on it and — after some ...

Although shunt capacitors offer several advantages at all voltage levels, those advantages come at a price. Not only must you purchase, install, and maintain capacitor equipment, you must be able to ...
Most load cells on the market use a cantilever outfitted with strain gages to measure loads. Such cells also need a bulky and expensive signal conditioner to make them useful. Engineers at Loadstar ...
