Diode Compensates Distortion in Amplifier Stage:  09/16/04 EDN Design Ideas  /  (added 1/05)  The voltage amplifier in Figure 1 exhibits smaller nonlinear distortion than does the conventional amplifier in Figure 2. Diode D1 compensates for the distortion inherent in the npn transistor. The voltage gain of a common-emitter amplifier depends on the transconductance of the transistor. The transconductance of the bipolar transistor is as follows: where e is the charge of an electron, ......

Force/Sense Connection Eliminates Multiplexer on Resistance Error:  01/22/04 EDN Design Ideas  /  (added 1/05)  Digitally controlled gain is an everyday analog-design element. You frequently find this element in an op-amp-based, transimpedance current-to-voltage converter. When you design digital gain control into such a converter, the usual scheme is to arrange things such that a digital multiplexer selects the appropriate feedback resistor for each gain figure....
