(ADI), the world leader in semiconductors for high-performance signal processing and leader in high-speed amplifiers, released today the ADI Diff Amp Calculator -- an updated, downloadable version of ADI’s popular ADIsimDiffAmp™ design tool. The free, graphical ADI Diff Amp Calculator reduces engineering calculation times from hours to minutes, speeding the selection, evaluation and troubleshooting of ADI’s differential amps using typical data to mathematically model the behavior of a component. Designers can quickly and easily calculate gain and component values of a diff-amp circuit for terminated or un-terminated loads, determine the input/output and Vocm voltage range, as well as calculate noise and power dissipation.

Using the ADI Diff Amp Calculator, along with free evaluation boards and product samples, engineers can complete time-consuming test and verification processes quickly for reduced design risk and improved time-to-market. To download the tool, click here. To access an online version, click here.

ADI Diff Amp Calculator Features and Benefits
