There are various reasons why you might need to split a voltage rail in your design. Perhaps the design contains a sensor or an IC that requires a bipolar supply, or you need to make the best use of ...

When designing a system, one of the most important design decisions is choosing what voltage domain(s) to use. Some voltage domains, such as 5 V, are good for noisy and harsh operating environments ...

A lot of the analog-circuit conversation these days is centered on low-power and thus low-voltage considerations. That makes sense for operational amplifiers (op amps), of course, since these basic ...
