I've not even seen a PNA for 120 GHz. But the Kiethley panel looks like what I'd expect to see nearing 120 GHz. It boggles my mind just thinking about the connector and cables while reading "i played...

What other constraints do you have? How many external pins? (A wire bonder must be a tool there?) How much die space? Can you directly drive an LED and must you or can you have external active devices?...

I can supplement with a little history. I was given a decommissioned S-band radar unit built and deployed in 1944 as a naval radar system. The waveguide was about 3x1.5 inches (from memory.) These old...

user697763, Optical light is one the order of magnitude of about a micron. 60 GHz radar is about 5 mm, 10000 times longer than green light. So the size of the resolved features should be about 10000...

Arno, I worked with the team producing this watch. (Which tells you where I live.) I still have my pre-production watch as well as a final edition of it here. It actually did run 2 years on a battery,...

@Lundin Agreed. It's not the static shock. But the kinetic energy that follows. ;)

I don't know, but you made me curious since there are non-principle axes of rotation. I think Toutatis is one such. How does this complicate the situation? I am suddenly curious.

None of this leads to a quantitative design. More, you start with the assumption that near DC H(s) is 1 and dominates and that with s R2 C2 included and towards HF beta(s) is also 1. Or, if I'm...

The LED is a white Luxeon Emitter for 350 mA with VF between 2.79 V and 3.99 V (typ of 3.42 V) and a dynamic resistance at the operating point of 1 Ohm (typical) and at least a 2:1 spread over samples...

Junius, they don't have to be designed by trial and error. There is a process to follow. Are you interested in that particular circuit with that particular opamp and that particular LED? Do you want a...

Did you build this from discretes? Or did you use one of the several available ICs with matched transistors? (The MAT14, for example?) There is the power hungry and expensive AD831. There's also LT5526...

@Ig_M At least twice the power (obviously the average and not instantaneous.) So 5 W would be about right if 1.75 W is the worst case "average over some desired time" value. But you do also need to...

Answer by periblepsis for What's wrong with this phase shift oscillator?
The first thing that struck me about your circuit is the lack of sufficient gain. Ideally, the gain must have a magnitude of at least 56. Ideally. A little more won't hurt.Let's test this ideal...
