< Back Low Leakage Diodes Introduction In circuit designs for sensor signal conditioning, the design engineer must protect the input section from over current and over voltage conditions. Op amps, ADC analog inputs, analog multiplexers, and [RS485] line receivers represent classes of devices that need protection. Often, the manufacturers of such devices specify the acceptable input range for voltage, or, in the case of an overvoltage condition, the allowable input current above which semiconductor or bonding wires may be damaged.

(Linear Systems) will be showcasing its High Temperature Products capability at the Trendsetter Electronics Booth #4728 , at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) being held May 7 through May 9 at the NGR Park, Houston, Texas. These High Temperature Discrete Products enable designers to create custom discrete operational amplifiers when seeking a solution to improve the performance of their applications, when off the shelve operational amplifiers are not good enough. The Linear Systems' JFET product line is one of the largest in the industry and continues to expand. The unique Linear Systems' monolithic dual construction allows for two JFETs to be located on one piece of silicon, as compared to two individual pieces of silicon. The result is improved room temperature matching as well as improved matching/tracking over high temperature. Linear Systems' JFETs are available in various types: Ultra Low Noise (1.9nv-typ), High Impedance, Pico Amp Leakage, and High Frequency. The JFET product line includes both N-Channel Monolithic Duals and Singles and P-Channel Monolithic Duals and Singles for Amplifier and Switching Applications. Linear Systems will be available to discuss this capability and its line of precision small-signal discrete components at the OTC event. The event showcases offshore drilling, exploration, production and environmental protection manufacturers. Linear Systems specializes in the development and manufacture of precision, ultra-low-noise small-signal discrete components. Its parts, such as the LSK389 and LSK489, are used in highly demanding sensor systems ranging from the Large-Scale Synoptic Telescope to piezoelectric devices to sonobuoys. These parts also provide the front-end amplification for down hole, high-end test and measurement, sensor, medical and professional audio equipment. Linear Systems is a full-service, privately-held, 32-year-old designer and manufacturer of small-signal discrete semiconductors. The Fremont, CA-based company was founded by John H. Hall, co-founder of Intersil and founder of Micro Power Systems. Linear Systems' product line consists of: Ultra-Low-Noise JFETs: N-Channel and P-Channel Monolithic Dual and Single, High-Speed Lateral DMOS Switches, Bipolar Transistors : Monolithic Dual and Single, BIFET Amplifiers, Current-Regulating Diodes, Pico Amp-Leakage Diodes, MOSFETs: N-Channel and P-Channel Monolithic Dual and Single, PhotoFETS, and Voltage Controlled Resistors.

< Back Consider the JFET Introduction Though not as well known as the bipolar transistor or op amp, this long-established transistor still excels in where you need to optimize circuit behavior, such as for lowest noise. Many engineers are somewhat familiar with discrete bipolar transistors, such as the venerable 2N2222. They are also comfortable with the MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) as a discrete device for amplifying analog signals and switching power signals, as well as its role as the key digital structural element in large-scale ICs. But alongside these devices is the JFET (junction field-effect transistor), which was developed soon after the bipolar transistor. To many designers, the JFET is the nearly ideal three-terminal solid-state device, and its operation and parameters are analogous to the vacuum-tube triode. The difference is that the JFET is, of course, a low-voltage, much-more efficient device, although it can't deliver the power that a vacuum tube can. For applications which require extremely low noise, the JFET is often offers superior performance compared to any other discrete device, as well as op amps. Read More
