High-Voltage Amplifiers
Power amplifiers are a must in applications requiring both complex signals as well as high voltage throughput. However, this is uncommon in high performance instrumentation, therefore an external amplification device must be used. In these cases, a high voltage amplifier is used to increase the size of a signal by some factor.

Low Phase Noise Amplifiers
Low Phase Noise amplifiers are critical for many applications requiring high signal integrity. This is especially relevant in instrumentation, defense, and telecommunication applications where low phase noise amplifiers are becoming increasingly important as the oscillators improve. Phase noise is described as the close-in noise to the carrier that can often appear as jitter on a clock signal. Analog Devices offers a large portfolio of low phase noise amplifiers to meet a variety of requirements in the LO network, receiver, as well as in the transmitter. Our portfolio supports a wide range of power levels and frequencies to provide the right solution for the given application.

Instrumentation Amplifiers
Analog Devices instrumentation amplifiers (in-amps) are precision gain blocks that have a differential input and an output that may be differential or single-ended with respect to a reference terminal. These devices amplify the difference between two input signal voltages while rejecting any signals that are common to both inputs. The in-amps are widely used in many industrial, measurement, data acquisition, and medical applications where dc precision and gain accuracy must be maintained within a noisy environment, and where large common-mode signals (usually at the ac power line frequency) are present.
