This high-speed analog buffer IC replaces a handful of discrete components and offers two modes of precision and performance tradeoffs. “Buffer” is one of the many words in electronic and computer ...

An analog device that is typically used for impedance matching and signal isolation. For example, a sound card typically uses buffer amps at most of its input and output ports. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR ...

National Semiconductor claims its new audio buffer delivers the industry’s lowest noise and harmonic distortion for professional audio applications. Part of National’s high-fidelity LME audio ...

1. Is Amplifier Weight an Indicator of Robust Amplifier Design? You have to find out if the amplifier is a Class A/B analog amp or a Class D digital amplifier before you can generalize about weight ...

Most audiophiles and enthusiasts have grown up with at least a basic understanding of what an amplifier does. It takes a tiny alternating electrical signal that represents the moment-to-moment ...
