The Balanced Differential Amplifiers play a most important role as basic building block in instrumentation amplifier circuit. One of the characteristic of a differential amplifier, the common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is most important. The active load used for balanced differential amplifier is going to affect differential gain, thus CMRR of the circuit. The active load used can be a diode c...

An all-diode-pumped, multistage Nd:YAG amplifier is investigated as a means of extending the duration of high-power, burst-mode laser pulse sequences to an unprecedented 30 ms or more. The laser generates 120 mJ per pulse at 1064.3 nm with a repetition rate of 10 kHz, which is sufficient for a wide range of planar laser diagnostics based on fluorescence, Raman scattering, and Rayleigh scatterin...

In this paper, we discuss the methods to minimize the nonlinearity in optical sources and amplifiers used in RoF systems. The non linearity present in a Laser diode is minimized by pre distorting the drive current, by passing it through a predistortion circuitry to achieve a linear transfer characteristics which in turn suppress the harmonic and inter modulation distortions. A feed forward tech...

a new output structure for class e power amplifier (pa) is proposed in this paper. a series lc resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. this resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. the output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class e amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. t...

A handheld line information reader and a line information generator were developed for the efficient management of optical communication lines. The line information reader consists of a photo diode, trans-impedance amplifier, voltage amplifier, microcontroller unit, display panel, and communication modules. The line information generator consists of a laser diode, laser driving circuits, microc...

Previous experiments with the Raman FEL, situated at the Twente University, showed that the output was influenced by the rather strong increase of the current density with time . The field emission diode has been modified to produce a more constant current pulse to simplify the analysis of the measurements . This resulted in a lower current density of the electron beam . With this new diode two...

The front-end transmit/receive switch circuit is one of the essential elements in modern wireless handsets. The main function of the transmit/receive switch is switch the antenna either to the transmitter or the receiver. It must have high isolation in order to avoid the RF-power of the transmitter (PA) turning on the receiver (LNA), resulting in high loss or in the worst case damage. Low inser...

We present and investigate different external cavity diode laser (ECDL) configurations for the manipulation of neutral atoms, wavelength-stabilized by a narrow-band high transmission interference filter. A novel diode laser, providing high output power of more than 1 W, with a linewidth of less than 85 kHz, based on a self-seeded tapered amplifier chip has been developed. Additionally, we compa...
