High Frequency Operational Amplifier

Technology Benefits

Precision gain at high frequencies Record high bandwidth at a given operating power Record high linearity at a given operating power Decreased production costs due to a design lacking the need for complementary technology High tolerances of external input and output impedances

Technology Application

Operational Amplifiers Analog and Digital Electronics This technology is available for licensing. U.S. Patent No. 7,898,333.

Detailed Technology Description

Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara have developed a high frequency operational amplifier. It exhibits precision gain at high frequencies and has record high bandwidth and linearity at a given operating power. Because it doesn’t require complementary devices, production costs are decreased, and the op-amp tolerates a wide range of external input and output impedances. It is applicable in a wide range of both analog and digital electronics.

Background

Since conventional operational amplifiers (op-amps) are unstable at high gains at high frequencies and may require complementary technology for implementation, there is a need for an op-amp that surmounts both of these obstacles in order to increase performance and decrease production costs.
