Window Comparator – Window Detector with relay output


https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/window-comparator-window-detector-with-relay-output/

A window detector circuit, also called window comparator circuit or dual edge limit detector circuit is used to determine whether an unknown input is between two precise reference threshold voltages. It employs two comparators to detect over-voltage or under-voltage condition. This circuit utilizes two comparators in parallel to determine if a signal is between two […]

Class AB Amplifiers


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/class-ab-amplifiers/

Introduction Class A amplifiers offer a very good linearity of the output, meaning that the signal is faithfully reproduced, however their efficiency is very low, around 20-30 % in most of the cases. On the other hand, class B amplifiers present a very high efficiency up to 78.5 % but cannot reproduce the output faithfully. […]
