OPEX-1: A Discrete OPAMP for Audio

This design showcases a discrete opamp for audio applications.  It features very low noise, low distortion and a class A output stage that will deliver 1ppm distortion into a 600 Ohm load at 12 V peak. OPEX-1-Discrete-Opamp

Augmented Feedback Error Correction (AFEC)

AFEC is a simple technique that augments the feedback of an amplifier to dramatically improve the Large Signal Non-linearity (LSN) distortion performance by up to 20 dB across the audio band. Additionally, AFEC acts to remove any DC offsets and also improve PSRR significantly. Augmenting the feedback in a manner similar to that described in […]
