This circuit was born from an application that required an input signal to be precisely clamped to less than 2.5 V, while operating on a 2.5 V supply (actually a reference) with a maximum output of 4 ...

The circuit in Figure 1 provides a low-cost, isolated ac-line monitor that measures ac-line-voltage level and has some other unique capabilities. The analysis of the circuit is straightforward: When ...

Power systems dedicated to next-generation high-performance blade servers, datacenters, storage and communication infrastructure systems are a group that “feels the need--the need for speed!” ...

Some amplifier applications require clamping or limiting due to large, sporadic signals appearing at the amplifier input. Clamping these errant signals protects the amplifier and other sensitive ...
