Power Amps |
Introduction:
- In current feedback amplifier architectures, gain and bandwidth are independent, so increasing the gain doesn't reduce the bandwidth. The high slew rate and high current output supports wide full power bandwidth with better high-frequency distortion performance compared to voltage feedback amplifiers.
Applications:
Arbitrary Waveform Generator |
Semiconductor Test & ATE |
Semiconductor Manufacturing | LCR Meter & Impedance Analyzer | |||
Medical Ultrasound |
In-vitro diagnostics |
MRI |
Electrosurgery |
