Low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators have been widely used in noise-sensitive applications for decades. Nevertheless, noise requirements have become tougher to meet as the latest precision sensors, ...
Numerous electronic components like phase-lock loops, FPGA transceivers, and precision op-amps require a low noise voltage rail in order to operate as specified. More often than not, when a need for a ...
The Agilent RFDE and ADS tools provide today's engineer with an accurate, well-defined methodology for predicting first-order phase noise performance of the PLL in the above example. The ...
Wideband communication systems usually require an ultra-low noise regulator to power the VCOs and PLLs. The regulator must also be able to reject any ripple presented at its input. In a typical system ...
