High-Impedance Buffer Amplifier's Input Includes Esd Protection -  09/28/06 EDN-Design Ideas  Diodes and guard traces suppress high-voltage static-discharge transients....[Design Idea added 05/07]  EDN migrating links. This link is not verified.  Google the "title" EDN for new link.

 

High-impedance FET probe extends RF spectrum analyzer's usable range -  21-Jul-05 Issue of EDN  Op amp and careful design/construction build high-impedance RF probe.... [Design Idea by Steve Hageman, Windsor, CA; Edited by Brad Thompson and Fran Granville]
High-impedance voltmeter -  An ideal voltmeter has infinite input impedance, meaning that it draws zero current from the circuit under test.  This way, there will be no "impact" on the circuit as the voltage is being measured. The more current a voltmeter draws from the circuit under test, the more the measured voltage will "sag" under the loading effect of the meter, like a tire-pressure gauge....(schematic added 6/07)
High-voltage Amplifier Drives piezo tubes -  7-Dec-04 Issue of EDN  Piezoelectric tubular positioners that drive manipulators in scanning tunneling microscopes require high-voltage, low-current drive circuits. The circuit in Figure 1 can drive high-resistance, low-capacitance piezoelectric loads at a -3-dB bandwidth of 6 kHz. It offers a low-cost alternative to commercial drivers....PDF has several circuits, please scroll to find this one.... [Design Idea by Bipin Duggal, Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India]
Impedance transformer flags failed fuse -  17-Dec-04 Issue of EDN  Figure 1depicts a circuit that detects the opening of a miniature circuit breaker or high-rupture-capability fuse in a high-reliability telecommunications power supply. The circuit generates an alarm when a failure changes the impedance of an electromagnetic sensor. Traditional fault-detection circuits sense the voltage difference developed across an open fuse, leakage current flowing through.... [Design Idea by Kevin Ackerley, Future Electronics, Vancouver, BC, Canada]
Line Driver Economically Synthesizes Impedance -  01/06/94 Issue of EDN-Design Ideas  The line-driver circuit in Fig 1 uses a second op amp to synthesize the output impedance. The conventional line-driver circuit employs a single op amp having a resistor whose resistance is equal to the desired impedance in series with the op amp's....

Op Amp Output Impedance Apex-AN10 -  Apex App Note (added 08/08/08)
Variable Amplifier Impedance (Andy Collison) -  This is a circuit where a microphone and preamp circuit (voice circuit) have priority over any other audio signal. You can think of this as a one way intercom, if the main amplifier is used for listening to music, then when the push to talk switch is pressed, the amplifier is switched to the voice signal....(added 4/02)
