It is not uncommon to need a sine wave but how do you generate it? The “best” or most appropriate method for a particular application depends on several things such as: frequency, purity required, amplitude, possible synchronization with another frequency, variable frequency and/or amplitude. At lower frequencies a Wien bridge might be considered – for […]

Open loop gain: how to measure with SPICE
When designing opamps in analog IC design, it is frequently required to plot the open loop gain/phase. One way of doing that is to use a high feedback resistor and very high capacitance so the feedback network has an extremely low corner frequency: This works fine unless your opamp drive capability is low, in which […]
