limiting amplifier

The signal and error amplifiers used just one LM31l voltage comparator each, operating as a limiting amplifier.

A limiting amplifier, with less stringent bandwidth requirement than analog amplifiers, can be used to amplify pure digital signal source.

Gennum's integrated limiting amplifier and laser devices are targeted at SFP+ modules needed for these high port density systems.

The TK10483 includes oscillator, limiting amplifier, AFC circuit, quadrature detect.

The post amplifier used is a high-gain limiting amplifier having a minimum threshold differential input voltage of 4.0 mVp-p.

Peak limiting amplifiers were originally implemented in the late 1940's using variable-mu pentode electronic vacuum tube (valve) amplifiers, with compression slopes which were generally limited to around 10:1.

In practice, a compression slope of 10:1 was adaquate, because there was invariably one peak limiting amplifier feeding the main program line leaving the station and a second one located at the transmitter site.

The GN2017, a dual CDR with integrated VCSEL driver and limiting amplifier, addresses signal integrity issues at 14 Gb/s speeds, the data rate adopted for 16G Fibre Channel.

Putnam's original design of the Universal Audio (later Urei) 1176 Limiting Amplifier was launched in 1967 and did very well for itself, but in 1970 it received a significant update largely designed by an engineer called Brad Plunkett.

Optical-electrical converters are typically coupled with a transimpedance amplifier and a limiting amplifier to produce a digital signal in the electrical domain from the incoming optical signal, which may be attenuated and distorted while passing through the channel.

Zarlink's current generation of 4-, 8- and 12-channel modules utilize AMCC's S7022 Quad VCSEL driver and S7025 Quad transimpedance amplifier (TIA), with integrated limiting amplifier and Loss of Signal (LOS) detection circuitry.
