Class-D stereo amplifier drives 12 W and 4Ω speakers
Diodes Incorporated introduces the PAM8965 Class-D stereo audio power amplifier with an integrated synchronous boost converter. This high-efficiency device is targeted for use in AI-enabled speaker systems and portable musical instruments – where elevated output power, extended battery life, and compact construction are all key requirements. Running off a 2.8V to 8.5V supply, the PAM8965 has […]
What is pseudorandomness and why is it useful?
Pseudorandomness is a measurement of the degree to which a sequence of numbers, though appearing to be random, is produced by a deterministic and repeatable process. True randomness is a stochastic quality of a sequence which has a probability distribution or pattern that may be analyzed statistically but may not be predicted precisely. Pseudorandom sequences […]
