Here’s a nostalgic vibe of an awesome analog chip from the 1990s era that’s still making an impact in audio designs.

A new technical paper titled “Accelerating OTA Circuit Design: Transistor Sizing Based on a Transformer Model and Precomputed Lookup Tables” was published by University Minnesota and Cadence. Abstract ...

Crazy Tube Circuits has released a limited edition twist on its Unobtanium preamp/overdrive pedal, the amp-in-a-box drive twofer that has a Klon-style drive on one side, and two Dumble tube amp ...

Crazy Tube Circuits has done it again, and by again we mean it has released a fully featured amp-style overdrive pedal that pairs a classic amp drive voicing with a classic pedal – on this occasion a ...

Amplifiers are rarely used at full volume, though. In that instance any energy not used to work the speakers becomes heat, and there lies the issue for Class A designs. Class A operation ensures that ...

6. What Are “Digital” Amplifiers and How Are They Different From Analog Amplifiers? An analog amplifier works in analogous fashion, regulating the output stage devices (transistors) to release power ...

They’re no good for audio but find a use in RF power amplifiers, where LC circuits filter out the resulting harmonics.) A Fully Digital Audio Amplifier: Class D ...

“Source-gated transistor circuits may also be cheaper to manufacture on a large scale because their simplicity means there is less waste in the form of rejected components.” Are there any ...
