Universal Symmetric Power Supply

Published in issue 290, July 2000

Universal Symmetric Power Supply
This power supply has been specially designed for the 20th-order filter described elsewhere in this issue, but it can also be used for a legion of other opamp circuits. The supply voltage is set to ±17.5 V, in light of the maximum output level of the filter. This benefits the signal to noise ratio. The specified absolute maximum supply voltage for most opamps is ±18 V, and we have intentionally kept a bit below this limit.
