### Difference between virtual and ground plane

Ive created two PCBs, a power board to output a +-5V supply and a midway voltage reference (using the TLE2426) at 0V. This PCB powers a biosignal acquistion board shown in the spice diagram below. ...

### How to modify this circuit for variable clipping without affecting gain?

Below is a basic implementation of a circuit used to clip an incoming signal using the diodes in the feedback loop of the op-amp. Since the diodes are different they have different characteristics, ...

### Does a 40 MHz radio frequency have any interference to Bluetooth signal?

From my understanding, the Bluetooth signal is using a 2.4 GHz frequency. However, when someone is playing with a 40 MHz RC vehicle, the Bluetooth signal keep on getting interrupted or disconnected. ...

### Electret Mic Circuit Using JFET Bootstrap

I thought this circuit was clever so I'm sharing: The JFET current source is bootstrapping the electret and thereby providing 20dB of linearized gain. The bootstapping network also provides for ...
